Rishi Sunak to take oath as UK PM today

October 25, 2022

To meet King Charles III, address the nation at 4 pm

London: Indian-origin Rishi Sunak will be the new Prime Minister of Britain. On Monday, the Conservative Party’s parliamentary party elected Sunak as the leader. King Charles-III will hand over the PM’s appointment letter to Sunak today (Tuesday).

Rishi Sunak, who describes himself as a “proud Hindu”, is the UK’s first Prime Minister of South Asian heritage and the youngest for more than 200 years at the age of 42. His victory on Deepavali has resonated among the Indian diaspora groups across the UK, who have hailed it as a “historic moment” in British social history.

According to the BBC report, Liz Truss will first hold a cabinet meeting at 1.30 pm (Indian time). She will address the country for the last time as Prime Minister from PM House at 2.45 pm. She will then go to Buckingham Palace and submit her resignation to King Charles III.

After some time, King Charles-III will give the PM’s appointment letter to Sunak. Sunak will address the nation from the PM House (10th Downing Street) at 4 pm after officially becoming the Prime Minister.

Sunak will address the nation from PM House at 4 pm. It marks a meteoric rise in British public life, for Sunak became a member of Parliament only seven years ago. In his first, brief public statement after being elevated, he said, “I pledge that I will serve you with integrity and humility; and I will work day in, day out to deliver for the British people.”

Sunak’s wife Akshata Murthy, a businesswoman, is the daughter of N.R. Narayana Murthy, founder of Bengaluru-based Infosys. The couple has two daughters Krishna and Anoushka.

    I see In India- I live in England, this is touted as the emergence of the diaspora man to the highest office.
    The reality is Sunak-he is called the Snake, as he clandestinely worked against the previous Pm Boris Johnson who him the cabinet post, finally stabbing him at the nback as we say here in England, causing his downfall. He was defeated at the next party election, and then he and his cabal of MPs9 rumour is that he used the vast wealth at his disposal by Narayana Murthy, through his daughter, to under thre person who defeated him-LiS Truss, an hones person, causing her downfall.
    He was unsuccessful in Silicon Valley, unsuccessful in the finance in the City of London , and used Narayana Murthy’s influence in 2015, to get a safe party seat.
    He, as the finance minister of last PM Boris Johnson, put taxes up massively, while his wife Akshata , evaded UK taxes for 10 years. Shwe remains an Indian citizen, although for such a position, needs UK citizenship.
    He typically adopted Indian practice of gaining MPs, through his wealth.
    The Labour Party led by a very honest lawyer Starmer will point out his hypocrisy of increasing taxes for ordinary people, while his wife evades taxes.
    Narayana Murthy’s wealth made him . That is not a good sign here. Also, his adoption of surrounding himself with Indian political style cabal of MPs, is going to cost his party the next election.

    Apologies for errors and typos, I have posted here the corrected version:
    I see In India- I live in England, this is touted as the emergence of the diaspora man to the highest office.
    The reality is Sunak-he is called the Snake, as he clandestinely worked against the previous PM Boris Johnson who gave him the first cabinet post, finally stabbing him at the n=back as we say here in England, causing his downfall. He was defeated at the next party election, and then he and his cabal of MPs- rumour is that he used the vast wealth at his disposal by Narayana Murthy, through his daughter, to build up this nefarious cabal of MPs-much like the in India promising positions, He deployed them to undermine the person who defeated him-Liz Truss, an honest person, who became the PM 2 months ago ,causing her downfall.
    He was unsuccessful in Silicon Valley, USA, despite his Father In Law’s millions of USDs for the start ups, unsuccessful in the finance sector-the hedge funds in the City of London , and used Narayana Murthy’s influence in 2015, to get a safe party seat, from the then PM David Cameron.
    He, as the finance minister of last PM Boris Johnson, put taxes up massively, wssted billions of GBPs to fraudsters who claimed grants for non-existent companies, while his wife Akshata evaded UK taxes for 10 years. She remains an Indian citizen, although such a position, needs UK citizenship.
    He typically adopted Indian practice of gaining more MPs, through his wealth.
    The Labour Party led by a very honest lawyer Starmer will point out his hypocrisy of increasing taxes for ordinary people, while his wife evades taxes.
    Narayana Murthy’s wealth made him . That is not a good sign here. Also, his adoption of surrounding himself with Indian political style cabal of MPs, is going to cost his party the next election. One coukd understand , if he worked hard to come up on merit only, That is not the case.
