British Prime Minister Keir ‌Starmer says he will stand in any leadership contest against potential rival Andy Burnham.
Burnham's won the Makerfield byelection, earning a landslide 55 percent of the vote.
This month, Burnham said he'd challenge Keir Starmer’s leadership.
UK correspondent Enda Brady says Burnham's trounced Reform in the local election, and that sends a clear message to voters.
"Some people are saying Starmer will quit, others are saying there'll be a leadership battle. But make no mistake, I think Andy Burnham's going to be Prime Minister by Christmas."
