British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has about to fight on despite mounting calls for him to quit as leader of Britain's Labour Party.
It comes as his party suffered multiple defeats in local elections earlier this week.
Here's more on that.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's Labour Party this week suffered the worst election losses for a governing party in more than three decades.
In contrast, a growing opposition party, Reform UK, made significant gains.
Now calls for Starmer's removal are coming from within his own party.
A former minister in Starmer's government, Catherine West, threatened to seek the backing of lawmakers to trigger a leadership contest.
That's unless his cabinet takes steps to remove him by Monday.
Under party rules, it would take 20% of the parliamentary party, or 81 lawmakers, to trigger a leadership challenge.
About 30 members of Parliament have so far voiced opposition to his leadership publicly, and there could be more.
There are three main candidates seen as most likely replacements for the British Prime Minister.
Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham is a popular choice, but he doesn't have the necessary seat in Parliament.
Former Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner is seen as a potential contender.
She resigned from office last year due to tax issues that hurt her reputation, and that are not yet fully resolved.
The third, Wes Streeting, is currently Health Minister.
If Starmer is removed in the coming weeks, Britain would find itself with its seventh Prime Minister in the past decade.
