Last Thursday was a historic night for Sheffield City Council as a many of Sheffield’s Labour councillors were unseated in the worst local elections in the parties history.
Local Labour leader Tom Hunt lost his seat as only three of Labour’s councillors up for election this year have won their ward.
These results are threatening to be the end of days for Prime Minister Kier Starmer, who is facing calls from within the Labour party to resign as leader.
Sheffield Labour has announced a new candidate for council leader but is the national party prepared to do the same?
Minesh Parekh, who held his seat last week, has been calling for Starmer to resign since November.
