Questo articolo è **fuori scope per Warptech Tech News**. È pura politica britannica (dimissioni Starmer, successione Burnham), senza rilevanza tech, AI, business digitale, o governance IT per il tuo audience di manager tech/CTO italiani. **Suggerisco**: verifica se è finito per errore nella pipeline di scraping (eventualmente aggiungi `independent.co.uk/politics` alla blocklist di URL-filters). Il pezzo non ha dati, trend, o implicazioni di mercato che giustifichino spazio editoriale qui.
