Rishi Sunak is hours away from being sworn in as Britain's third Prime Minister in two months

Rishi Sunak is hours away from being sworn in as Britain's third Prime Minister in two months. The former Chancellor represents a historic change in UK politics, becoming the first leader of Asian descent. He's also the first resident of Downing Street to be twice as rich as the King.

A hero's. Welcome to the next Prime Minister and Conservative Party headquarters. Maybe it was mixed with relief that the latest leadership convulsions were over.

It is the best privilege of my life to be able to serve the party I like and provides back to the country I owe such a lot to. With Boris Johnson already out of the race, the ultimate contestant, Penny Ferdinand Joseph La Menthe Morton, fought on till the death knell, retreating solely moments before MPs learned Sunak stood alone.

Rishi Sunak is thus nonappointive as leader of the party. The outgoing temporary dweller of 10 landscapist Street tweeted her support. At 42, Rishi Sunak is the youngest British Prime Minister in additional than 2 centuries. Oxford-educated, a career in finance. In many ways, the daddy of 2 represents the Tory institution, however, he's a major break from the past. the primary British Prime Minister of Indian background. the primary could be an active Hindu.

Yeah, it's a proud thing. As an Indian, I like it. The fact that this is possible now in 2022 is a new thing in which politics wouldn't have been the case even ten years ago, and certainly not 20 years ago.

He's also likely to be the wealthiest person to call Ten Downing Street home. His wife, Akshata Murthy, is the daughter of one of India's richest men. The couple's net worth has put at more than 3 billion Australian dollars. Quite a rise for a man who only entered Parliament seven years ago. His postvictory speech is like a heavily rehearsed campaign ad for a Prime Minister elected who's yet to face a general election.

I pledge that I will serve you with integrity and humility and I will work day in, and day out to deliver for the British people. But the British public is severely jaded by months of Tory infighting while the country suffers economic crises. And as for Boris Johnson, despite his hints at another lunge of the leadership, one of those who worked closely with him says he's done it pains me.

To say, as someone I spent a long time with, an old friend, he's gone with very little grace. He's further destabilized the party, albeit briefly, and dare I say, I don't think he'll be back. 90 correspondent Brett McLeod is at number ten Downing Street tonight. For us. Brett, what happens today in London?

Well, Peter, just over an hour's time at Liz Truss, the current Prime Minister, will step through that now revolving door at Number Ten for the last time at the head around the corner to Buckingham Palace will she be greeted by the King? Shall formally hand over her resignation. A short time after that, Rishi Sunak will meet King Charles III, to be sworn in as Britain's 57th prime minister.
