Rishi Sunak will become the next U.K. prime minister after his last competitor, Penny Mordaunt, withdrew, just minutes before a deadline to get support from 100 lawmakers. Sunak, the former chancellor of the exchequer, will become the first ethnic minority leader of the U.K. Sunak is set to speak in the next half hour.

He’s a WEFer, he has no country, just globalism.

I’m sure people said the same when we had a Jewish prime minister. Sunak was born in Southampton, attended very posh schools eg Stroud and Winchester, went to Stanford.

It’s not as if he’s from a family that’s straight off an immigrant boat and from some ethnic community. His parents had been in the UK for over three decades on a predominantly middle class white community, with one relative earning an MBE for services to the Inland Revenue.

Goldman Sachs, hedge fund management, PPE and MBA... The far bigger issue than his ethnic background is that he’s textbook WEF technocrat material.

That said, he was also a competent Chancellor of the Exchequer during a time of exceptional turmoil.

Yes it would. First Indian UK PM. Ireland and Portugal have already had PMs with some Indian ancestry. One of Boris Johnson's wives was also half-Indian.

I was about to post the link to the same article in The Conservative Treehouse, but hardspunned beat me to it.

It contains a 60 second video of Rishi Sunak that I encourage all Freepers to watch.

This guy is a total climate change/World Economic Forum/Build Back Better freak.

He didn’t get “elected”. He got “installed” by the global cabal.

The people in the UK are in for a very rough time.

The UK’s economy is 10% manufacturing and 80% services.

It depended heavily on London exporting finance, insurance, and real estate services in order to earn foreign exchange to support its importing of food, energy, raw materials, and manufactured goods.

After Brexit, London lost many of its export markets. Imports will have to be adjusted downward to match. This will cause a significant drop in living standards and will cause political turmoil.

Maybe if they go through enough PMs, they’ll find one who is NOT interested in lighting off WW3.

“After Brexit, London lost many of its export markets.”

After the hair-brained ‘sanctions’ on Ukraine, including no longer insuring ships carrying Russian items (or something close to that), they can kiss goodbye their insurance dominance, as new insurers are popping up (some in Russia, some in China) and likely providing a better product, at a lower cost.
