Rishi Sunak struck a cautious note with his first New Year message as British Prime Minister on Saturday and warned that the UK’s problems won’t go away in 2023, at the end of a “tough” 12 months during which his government had taken “tough but fair” decisions.
As perPTI report, The 42-year-old Indian-origin leader, who took charge as Prime Minister towards the end of October following turmoil within the ruling Conservative Party, recalled his inaugural address on the steps of 10 Downing Street to reiterate his promise to work “relentlessly” on the things that matter.
A particularly turbulent year for British politics saw Sunak’s two embattled predecessors – Boris Johnson and Liz Truss – unceremoniously shunted out of office as Conservative Party leaders.
