“We have to stay consistent or we will die,” Sunak himself told his colleagues, aware of the survey data. The Conservative Party – “thanks” to Boris Johnson – has fallen into a somewhat disorganized state in recent years. This Conservative Party is no longer the same as it was 10-15 years ago – states associate professor in the Department of International Relations at Corvinus University. One of the first tasks of the leader of the party elected the other day will be to restore unity, first of all he must establish order in his house.
At the same time, it must find an immediate solution to the economic problems in order to calm the markets in the short term. In the long term, Zoltan Galic said, it should develop new crisis management technology. The energy, livelihood and social crisis was exacerbated by the so-called outgoing Prime Minister small budget with lower taxes. you then sonak To find resources for “key interventions within the economy”.
If he chooses a restrictive economic policy, he will plunge the country into recession, which will worsen the situation.
It is not an easy task
The expert said.
In addition, thirdly, the new prime minister must preserve the unity of the United Kingdom, “because Brexit is not over yet.” The situation with the planned independence of Scotland and the precarious situation in Northern Ireland remains very resilient.
Old and new cabinet
Sunak promised to create a cabinet of talents. As expected, Jeremy Hunt retained his position as Treasury Secretary, while Dominic Raab became Deputy Prime Minister once again, making no secret of the fact that he was not happy with Boris Johnson’s return.
Meanwhile, Ben Wallace remained the defense secretary, who last year clashed with Suna, who was still managing the finance portfolio, over limited military spending. That’s why he backed Truss because he proposed a multi-billion-pound increase. According to the signs, the Prime Minister covered their discussion with a veil.
Home Secretary is a supporter of Sunak Suila Braverman who promised new jobs and previously that illegal immigrants for Rwanda They were deported.
Cabinet members are veterans and have been appointed to key ministerial positions.
It’s like seeing the old Johnson government
– According to Galic, we are not seeing a big change in this regard.
inescapable limitations
Among the tough decisions for the British government in the coming days will be whether pensions and benefits will rise with inflation, or whether those who depend on them will lose income in real terms.
If the benefits increase in proportion to the level of average income rather than inflation, this means savings of a few billion pounds. However, this may undermine Sun’s reputation as an advocate for the most vulnerable since the introduction of the job retention subsidy in March 2020 during the pandemic.
Sunak, who is also with his wife in the British royal couple richerHe would run the risk of being accused of being unable to empathize with the hardships faced by low-income earners.
In addition, a strike wave related to public sector wages, which is also a major aspect of cuts to ministries’ budgets, is approaching. The prime minister, who is rich in mundane goods, might have a more difficult time if he had to tell the nurses and teachers: They can’t get a raise because the state can’t afford it.
Galic also said that in a matter of days, the strategy that the prime minister will pursue will be clear. Will it choose the path of spending cuts, austerity in Hungary, or does it plan to cover expenses by borrowing, “which would be surprising in the markets,” the island country expert added.
Are you going to withdraw it until the next election?
Parliamentary elections in the UK must be held by January 2025 at the latest. Rishi Sunak can’t help but hope that he will somehow make it past these two years by a little.
Some Conservative MPs and pro-Conservative newspapers have also pointed out that Sunak moved to Downing Street practically without a single electoral vote.
It is possible that even he will struggle to win the vote of confidence and will not escape the call for elections.
However, from the Conservatives’ point of view, there is no need to rush the vote, because Labor support is now 53 percent. Situations – compared to a rare low percentage of conservatives of 22 percent.
Under these circumstances, it is “impossible” for the right to change the prime minister again. He will not survive this pressure.
Zoltan Galic said conservatives have stood behind Sun and are trying to survive, or at least minimize the damage.
