Andy Burnham’s July 2026 succession to Keir Starmer established the second prime minister in the current sequence, and traders assign an 85.5% probability to no further changes by December 2027. Burnham entered office pledging to halt the decade-long cycle of instability, with early moves focused on cost-of-living relief, devolution, and party unity after Starmer’s ouster amid weak local results and ministerial resignations. With the next general election not due until 2029 and no immediate signs of renewed Labour infighting or external shocks, the market views additional turnover as unlikely over the remaining sixteen months. A third prime minister would require either a rapid collapse in Burnham’s support or an unforeseen crisis, scenarios priced at just 14.5%.
