Power struggle in the Labour Party

132
King Charles III gave a speech on Wednesday. He read the plans for the government. This is called the Rede des K`onigs. The government wants a strong country. It wants closer contact to the EU. The age to vote becomes 16 years. Many politicians think the plans are too weak.

The Labour-Partei has a big fight now. Many members want a new boss. Keir Starmer has lots of pressure. He is the current Premierminister. About 80 members want him to leave. There must be a new vote with 81 members.

Wes Streeting is important in this fight. He is the Health Minister. Maybe he quits his job on Thursday. He wants to challenge Starmer. People also talk about Andy Burnham and Angela Rayner. Starmer wants to keep his job. He fights against his rivals.
