Britain PM / Rishi Sunak is almost certain to become PM in the race for the post of UK PM - Boris Johnson is also out of the race

Britain PM: The political situation in Britain has deteriorated. Former PM Boris Johnson was accused of corruption and had to leave his post. After that the public expressed confidence in Liz Truss, but she too could not turn her dreams into reality and she resigned from the post two days ago. Now again in this race, Indian-origin sage Sunak is at the forefront. Although he kept silence in this matter till Saturday, but on Sunday a tweet came and the market of speculation came to a complete stop. Rishi Sunak is leading the Conservative Party in the race for the PM post as he has the public support of more than 100 Tory MPs.

Former UK finance minister Sunak tweeted, "The United Kingdom is a great country but we are facing a major economic crisis. I stand to be the leader of the Conservative Party and to be your next Prime Minister. I want to fix my economy, unite my party and work for my country. This was the first time after the controversy when Sunak himself has admitted that he is also in the race for the post of PM.

Sunak at the forefront of the race for the post of PM

Indian-origin Rishi Sunak is at the forefront of the Conservative Party. He has the public support of more than 100 Tory lawmakers. Whereas former Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that he is leaving the race for the post of PM. Boris Johnson insisted he has the support of 102 lawmakers, but "this is not the right time" for him.

Sunak has the support of 147 MPs

With this, the contest for the Tory party leadership is set between Rishi Sunak and Penny Mordaunt. Rishi Sunak, the most popular to win, has the public support of 147 MPs so far. To qualify for the race for the post of PM, the support of 100 MPs has to be taken, Sunak is far ahead of this. Former cabinet minister Penny Mordant, who was the first to announce herself as an official candidate, said only 24 lawmakers supported her to win.

Former Home Minister in support of Sunak

Britain's Home Secretary Suella Braverman, who has recently resigned, came out in support of Rishi Sunak on Sunday to replace outgoing Prime Minister Liz Truss. Sunak has come to be seen as a capable candidate for Britain's unity, stability and efficiency. In a bid to boost candidacy, Sunak, and deal a blow to former Prime Minister Boris Johnson's expected effort to lead the Tory leadership, the former home minister said Johnson may no longer be a good choice for the party or the country.

Sunak's praise

Braverman said, "I have supported Boris from the beginning. Support him till he steps out in London in 2012, supports him to be our leader in 2019 and is ready to help him through all this year's troubles. His resignation in July was a loss to our country, but we are under a lot of stress now. Braverman, a London-born daughter to a Goa-born father and Tamil-origin mother, said things needed to change. We need to change as a party. We need to provide leadership, stability and confidence to the British people… I need a leader who can organize the country and fix things in a consistent, careful manner. Such a person is to me, Rishi Sunak.
