Rishi Sunak’s legitimacy deficit

Spread the love

Rishi Sunak is UK’s Prime Minister following the appalling former Tory Prime Ministers Boris Johnson and Liz Truss. Johnson was elected in the 2019 general election despite wide recognition that speaking truth was alien to him. He got kicked out over the Partygate scandal – that he was partying at number 10 and repeatedly denying it during the Covid lockdowns. There is a further scandal still developing about enriching Tories with government contracts for excessively expensive inaquate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) during Covid. Liz Truss was deposed following her ‘bonkers’ budget* that took from the poor to give to the rich and forced the Bank of England to intervene.

Rishi Sunak was quickly installed by the Conservatives as a ‘caretaker’, janitor or interim prime minister to replace Liz Truss. Not elected as prime minister he doesn’t have a mandate to do anything. He’s a Neo-Con climate denier providing huge fossil fuel subsidies for foreigners to take North Sea oil and a Zionist actively supporting and therefore very complicit in Israel’s genocide of Gaza.

* It wasn’t called a budget. Liz Truss and her chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng called it a statement to avoid scrutiny by the Office of Budget Responsibility.
