About Rishi Sunak

Rishi Sunak served as Prime Minister of the UK from October 2022 to July 2024, after a rapid rise through Conservative politics and roles in the Treasury. His background in finance and his technocratic approach to economic policy shaped his leadership. He is known for fiscal discipline, pandemic-era economic measures, and a privileged personal background, which critics sometimes frame as disconnected from ordinary citizens.
