Andy Burnham has taken another leap toward replacing Keir Starmer as UK Prime Minister, after securing 322 nominations from his party. Reform UK's Nigel Farage has also dramatically announced he will resign as a member of parliament, forcing a snap by-election. The populist leader's only confirmed rival in the seat of Clacton is a comedian who goes by the name 'Count Binface'.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has issued a formal apology to women who were forced to give up their babies under a historical policy in the country. An estimated 185,000 children were separated from their mothers under this system, which was in place largely between 1949 and 1976 and involved the participation of Christian churches. Similar apologies have also been made in Australia and Ireland for comparable past policies. More recently, the Dutch cabinet has issued an apology this week for its own forced separation and adoption practices that took place between the 1950s and the 1980s.

AP correspondent Karen Chammas reports on a formal apology from the British State to thousands of mothers in Britain who were forced to give up their babies because they were unmarried.

Iran negotiations, Keir Starmer's resignation, Jennifer Honka, and Jeremy Clarkson headline today's A.M. Update. JD Vance says talks in Switzerland accomplished four key goals: keeping the Strait of Hormuz open, building a de-confliction mechanism for the regional ceasefire, securing UN nuclear inspections, and establishing a direct communication line with Iran, while Scott Bessent confirms a 60-day licensing window for Iranian oil sales and Trump says crude is flowing at record volumes through the Strait. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announces his resignation, making him the seventh British PM in ten years, and Aaron ties the chaos directly to the country's collapsing Christian foundation, where only 6% of adults now identify as practicing Christians. A sixth suspect, Jordan W. Rinker, is publicly identified in the foiled drone and sniper plot against the UFC Freedom 250 event. A Denver Public Schools teacher named Jennifer Honka is fired after an administrative law judge finds she graded students on same-sex kissing skits in French class, and Aaron asks what kind of worldview produces an adult who thinks that's a reasonable lesson plan. Aaron closes with Jeremy Clarkson's cancer remission news and a deep dive into Clarkson's Farm, using a healthy pregnant cow killed over an inconclusive tuberculosis test as a window into Britain's broader collapse into bureaucratic self-worship.

Is the United Kingdom on the verge of replacing another Prime Minister? The incumbent Sir Keir Starmer faces fresh challenges to his leadership today, beginning with the resignation of his Health Secretary Wes Streeting, who has already called on the Prime Minister to step down after disastrous local election results last week. Meanwhile, the Mayor of Manchester, Andy Burnham, says he's going to stand for election to return to Parliament, and he could challenge Mr Starmer if he wins that by-election.Also in the programme: reflections on the meeting between Presidents Trump and Xi in Beijing; and we look at the dinosaur with the tiny brain, said to be as heavy as nine elephants.(Photo: Prime Minister Keir Starmer and MP Wes Streeting who has just resigned as Health Minister.
