Wes Streeting formally enters UK leadership race to challenge PM Starmer

Wes Streeting's ambition to head the British government was one of the worst-kept secrets in U.K. politics. But it's now official—the former health secretary announced his intention to oust Prime Minister Keir Starmer. 'We need a proper contest with the best candidates on the field, and I'll be standing,' Streeting said. He becomes the first candidate to formally enter what is shaping up to be a contested Labour leadership race.
