Bellingham Backed as Only No.10 England can Believe in as Starmer Resigns and Westminster Chaos Continues

Bellingham Backed as Only No.10 England can Believe in as Starmer Resigns and Westminster Chaos Continues

Jun. 23, 2026

As the UK comes to terms with another Prime Minister heading for the exit at 10 Downing Street, Paddy Power has taken to the streets of London with a timely reminder there is still one No.10 England can believe in.

A mobile billboard bearing the message "AT LEAST THERE'S ONE NO.10 ENGLAND CAN BELIEVE IN" circled Parliament Square this afternoon - only a few hours after Keir Starmer announced his resignation outside Downing Street. The mischievous message also comes just over 24 hours before Thomas Tuchel’s side face Ghana in their World Cup clash.

With Starmer becoming the sixth Prime Minister in a decade to announce a premature departure from No.10, Paddy Power is backing Jude Bellingham to deliver where others have failed as England’s World Cup campaign hots up. The bookmaker has the Real Madrid star priced at 15/8 to score against Ghana.

A Paddy Power spokesperson said: 

"Whilst Westminster continues to struggle for answers at the No.10 position, Thomas Tuchel appears to have figured out his own No.10 dilemma. The nation needs something to believe in right now, and we’re backing Bellingham to deliver.”
