Sunak, 42, is a relative newcomer to British politics but has risen rapidly through the ranks of the Conservative Party and was elected as a Member of Parliament (MP) for the Yorkshire seat of Richmond in 2015.
Since entering Parliament in 2015, he backed Brexit and was named finance minister in 2020 having only entered government as a junior minister in the housing ministry in 2018 and joining the treasury as second-in-command to the finance minister in 2019.
Sunak was promoted to finance minister in 2020, just before the pandemic, and his economic support schemes during lockdown gained him widespread recognition and public support.
He was widely viewed as a surefire contender to replace Johnson as Conservative leader one day, though his popularity plummeted following a series of politically unpopular policies, involvement in the lawbreaking “Partygate” scandal of government rule breaking during lockdown and after news emerged that his wealthy wife avoided millions in tax by claiming non-domicile status.
Sunak kick-started the spate of government resignations that ultimately ousted Johnson and was runner up to Truss in the race to replace him with a campaign slogan of “Ready for Rishi” (evidently, voters were not ready).
Sunak, born in Southampton in the south of England to parents of Indian origin who emigrated to the U. K. from east Africa, will be the youngest prime minister in more than 200 years and the country’s first South Asian leader.
Don’t forget his billionaire wife
Given the opportunity, he would love to be cutting taxes for the rich, and slashing public spending. He showed during the pandemic that he understands it's not an option right now (and if he didn't before, he must surely have learned it from seeing what happened to Truss), so in the short term, he should do well.
As soon as the economy starts to recover a bit though, that's what he'll be doing, at the first chance he gets, so it would be a disaster for him to remain PM in the long term.
The other issue is that his cabinet are all utterly incompetent, though in fairness, so are the rest of the party, and it's not like he could have chosen a lot better. Still, how on Earth people like Jeremy Hunt and Michael Gove are still in government after decades of abject failure in every post they've ever held, is beyond me.
Overall, he's the best of a very bad bunch, but we need a general election now.
This should be interesting
As soon as I heard an indian had been elected as prime minister, i immediately thought of all those kids who called us South Asian kids "pakis" at school. I wonder how they're doing now.🤔

@asker don't listen to @AngryCarl and his racially motivated opinion. He doesn't understand that you can be British and still be English, Welsh, Irish, Scottish, Indian, Pakistani, Jamaican, Ethiopian and so on. Racist to deny a man his racial and ethnic identity just because you don't like his politics and party.
They are probably still calling you Pakis.
If they didn’t think they were losing their country before to immigrants they will definitely think they are losing it now to immigrants.

He's almost cute. I would rate him 7 out of 10.

I don't care bout gender/race. My only question is can this person sort out the economy and the other issues going on. I'm not convinced anyone can sort it, it needs long term planning and cross party support. Brexit, Covid and the war have hit the global markets. Gunna take a long time to fix. That being said, he's probably the best of a bad bunch for now. Not sure there's anyone at teh top of UK politics that is a great choice
This guy is a lib-cuck and is going to make England far worse than it already is. And him being Indian is even worse, cause he'll be a raging racist, just like the mayor of London was, who said all that crap about "exterminating whites." He's absolute trash. But I get it; OP is a liberal himself, so of course he's going to think "all conservative and white people are evil."
No one can say that the UK are boring just now.
Do I ''like'' him? --- well, I never heard the name before. And as a precaution I will memorize this name only after new year's day... if he's still there :)
I am asking to learn information What is Rishi Sunak religious belief?
He's a Hindu
@Anjoomkabir thanks for giving information.
@Anjoomkabir The most believed religions in India are Hinduism and Islam. Some minorities are Sikhism Buddhism Jainism and other faiths
I mean Muslims are still a minority in India. In fact, they are persecuted there. Im pretty sure 80% of India is Hindu.
The guy who wants to redirect funding for deprived areas to those that are already wealthy? Not really. He's just another privileged right wing prick as far as I can see.
Don't be racist. Sunak was born in Southampton to parents of Indian descent who migrated to Britain from East Africa in the 1960s. He was educated at Winchester College, earned a degree in philosophy, politics and economics (PPE) at Lincoln College, Oxford, and an MBA from Stanford University in California as a Fulbright Scholar.
he's a deep state rat controlled by the World Economic Form
are the pakistanis happy?
