Is an Indian-origin British PM on the cards?

article image placeholderUK: Indian-origin Rishi Sunak third favourite to succeed PM Boris Johnson, but there's no sign he will run
After a series of mass resignations across his government, boris Johnson has announced that he is stepping down as the leader of the Conservative Party, but will remain the caretaker Prime Minister till his replacement is chosen. So that has brought on the big debate around who is likely to succeed him and if the recent polls are among Tory members are anything to go by. Rishi Sunnak has been seen as one of the top contenders for this post

Pincher by name, pincher by nature, is what Boris Johnson is supposed to have said, which he does not deny because he can't deny it. Well, actually, he could deny it because he's a serial liar, but he doesn't deny it because he knows it's true. Rishi Sunak may have just resigned recently in order to get rid of Boris Johnson, which did happen. But let's not forget he propped up the Prime Minister for the last year

Are they, in general, there's a solution with politics? Are they showing up to vote? Does any of this have any bearing in the way people feel about the political system? And I was wondering what you also made of Jeremy Corbyn

Hey, Varun. I think you must have noticed that I have taken down your previous reply. You must excuse me for that, because I think your reply was not quite relevant to the conversation that we are having here. So if you do have anything or to add on to this conversation, I would love to hear from you. So thank you. Bye

So much ignorance, and mostly a large chunk of the ignorance. And those people who voted for Brexit, the Levers, voted based on a rather nationalistic view. You talk about this populist views that are permeating the globe in various different places

It would be a really proud moment for us Indian if Richardson Have becomes the Prime Minister of UK, the country which ruled us for 200 more than 200 years. But I think more than the person person from Indian origin, the Prime Minister should be someone who cares about the people, cares about the poor and make policies which are good for the people of UK as well as around the world as we know it's
