Trader consensus on Polymarket implies a 35% chance of no new UK Prime Minister in 2026, reflecting Keir Starmer's entrenched position despite recent Labour rebellions over the autumn budget's welfare cuts and winter fuel allowance restrictions, which saw 49 MPs defy the whip but failed to topple the government. Angela Rayner's 21% implied probability stems from her role as Deputy Prime Minister, strong union backing, and positioning as Starmer's natural successor amid his sub-30% approval ratings. Ed Miliband's 10% reflects his energy secretary prominence and green policy push, while Nigel Farage's 9% captures Reform UK's by-election gains and opposition momentum. Key differentiators include Rayner's left-wing appeal versus Miliband's policy expertise and Farage's populist surge; consolidation could follow a no-confidence vote loss, snap election call, or Starmer resignation amid ongoing polling deficits.
