LONDON — Former finance minister Rishi Sunak won the race to be Britain's next prime minister Monday, the first British Asian to assume the role and the third leader in seven weeks of a country upended by political and economic chaos.
Sunak, 42, will become the latest leader of the ruling Conservative Party to enter the revolving door of No. 10 Downing St., following Liz Truss' resignation just 44 days after taking office. Her scandal-plagued predecessor, Boris Johnson, dropped his bid for a remarkable comeback Sunday.
I'm just confused how Britain suddenly became unstable. Couldn't possibly be due to the elites losing control!
Their Queen has been removed from the board, frantic moves to delay the inevitable, checkmate.
