London Desk, Delhi Magazine: Former British Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak won the race for the premiership of the United Kingdom automatically after the leader of the House of Commons, Penny Mordaunt, withdrew her candidacy from the election. Now Sunaka is waiting for approval from the king.
During his election campaign, even during the resignation of Boris Johnson, Sunak angered the British with his video in which he poses with a bazooka. At the same time, many wrote: “Beware of the loser, because the loser has nothing to lose.”
It is worth noting that Sunak advocates tougher sanctions against Russia, as well as limiting the number of migrants received.
His predecessor, Liz Truss, announced her resignation on October 20, setting records for tenure in this position in the entire history of the state – 42 days.
