British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is not going to set a timetable for his departure, according to his deputy David Lammy.
The heavy losses for his Labour Party in the May 7 elections triggered almost a quarter of his lawmakers to call for him to resign.
At least two of his party colleagues, Wes Streeting and Andy Burnham, are ready to battle it out to become UK's leader.
But Starmer says he is not signing off yet.
"I do want to fight the next election. Obviously, I recognise that after the local election results, the elections in Wales and Scotland as well, that the first task is obviously turning things around and making sure that my focus is in the right place," says Starmer.
"The last 10 days, there's been a lot of activity which hasn't been as focused, in my view, as it should have been. And I remind myself every day that I was elected to office to serve the people, to serve the country."
"That's what I believe in and that's what I will be getting on with," says Starmer.
