Why Johnson Doesn’t Approve Of Sunak As Britain’s Next PM?

-


Boris Johnson does not want Rishi Sunak to replace him. The withdrawn PM has not totally withdrawn from the situation. The biggest bone of contention is the sense of betrayal that he has felt from the former chancellor of the exchequer.

A surprising revelation is that, Johnson feels that his downfall has been because Sunak somewhere had been plotting against the leadership and paving way for his own succession.

What is also coming in focus is Sunak’s association with Indian IT millionaire Narayana Murthy as his son-in-law. There is no evidence of open recommendations by Mr. Johnson, but unofficially, he feels inclined towards ‘woman power’ and is indirectly hinting at the candidature of foreign secretary Liz Truss. Also, he seems to be open and welcoming towards the appointment of junior trade minister Penny Mordaunt for the top job.

The Times quoted sources as saying: “The whole No. 10 team hates Rishi. It’s personal. It’s vitriolic. They don’t blame Saj [Sajid Javid] for bringing him down. They blame Rishi. They think he was planning this for months.”

What comes to surface is also the fact that Sunak might be lacking a clear strategy to run the country as he did when he was holding the chancellor’s position. Also, it seems, he might go soft on Putin; something that Britain cannot afford to do as it has exited itself from the EU associations and gone solo.

The reason for him to go soft could be linked backed to his wife’s alleged connections with Infosys and how the latter is suspected to have benefited from its associations in Moscow with Putin.

Everything isn’t good for Sunak, the only NRI British national who will create history if he held the top position in 10 Downing Street. But he will really have to work hard to prove himself worthy.
