Rishi Sunak : Best Country In The World
New Promise From "Best Country In The World" Rishi Sunak
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak will square off one final time as they compete for the votes of any surviving Tory members before voting closes on Friday.
New Promise From Rishi Sunak For "Best Country In The World" In order to help the "greatest country in the world," Rishi Sunak promised to labour "night and day." London: As the election campaign to succeed Boris Johnson as the leader of the Conservative Party and the new British Prime Minister entered its final phase on Wednesday, with the very last hustings event scheduled for London, Rishi Sunak vowed to work "night and day" for the "best country in the world." Prior to the final campaign event set at a well-known music venue in Wembley on Wednesday night, Sunak, the first British Indian to seek for the top post at 10 Downing Street, reaffirmed his vision statement.
In a last face-off, the former chancellor and his challenger Foreign Secretary Liz Truss will compete for the votes of any remaining Tory members who haven't voted as of Friday night. The 42-year-old former finance minister made a last-ditch effort to hammer home his "consistent, clear, and honest" vision. He has focused his campaign message on the urgency of controlling inflation and refuted claims made by the 47-year-old Truss that tax cuts are the solution to the cost-of-living crisis crippling the UK economy.
"Britain is the finest place in the world to raise a family, establish a company, and we have a promising future. But we won't get there until we address our immediate issues head-on with candour and a solid strategy "Sunak made this declaration in a statement made available on Tuesday night by his Ready4Rishi campaign team.
"I have the best plan, which is based on conservative principles, and I have said throughout this campaign that we must first address inflation. We can only create the groundwork for growth and prosperity - for reduced taxes, a stronger NHS, and a thriving economy using all of our Brexit freedoms - by helping people get through this winter and controlling inflation "said he. That is my vision for Britain, and I will work nonstop for the party and the nation I adore to make it a reality.
The Indian diaspora has overwhelmingly backed Sunak, who is seeking to become Britain's first prime minister of Indian descent. Many of these supporters have already cast votes for him as a Conservative Party member. Sunak had a dream run in the early rounds of the competition when his fellow lawmakers overwhelmingly chose to elect him as one of the two finalists. However, since the campaign's focus was expanded to include the entire Conservative Party membership in the nation, Sunak has been trailing in polls and bookmaker's odds.
The two main variables that have worked against the UK-born Indian-origin MP for Richmond in Yorkshire appear to be a highly devoted group of Johnson supporters who believe Sunak's resignation as Chancellor in early July precipitated his early exit from Downing Street and Truss' commitment to lower taxes. Nevertheless, Sunak and his team have been upbeat throughout the campaign and have vowed to fight to the last end for what they see as the correct vision for the nation.
After a series of hustings events since last month, the voting in the leadership election will officially close at 1700 local time on Friday. By then, an estimated 160,000 Tory voters should have registered their ballots either by post or online. "I am proud of the strong slate of candidates we've had for this contest, the most diverse range of candidates for any leadership election in British history, showing once again the Conservatives are the party of meritocracy," said Conservative Party Chairman Andrew Stephenson, overseeing the election process.
