Today marks one year since Richmond MP Rishi Sunak became Prime Minister. Here Mason Boycott-Owen, Yorkshire Post Westminster Correspondent, reflects on how he has failed to reignite his party’s fortunes.
Yorkshire Tories at the candidate selection in Richmond nine years ago often remark of how Rishi Sunak was a cut above the rest, who was able to dazzle members and become the Conservative’s candidate in rural North Yorkshire, despite not being an obvious choice for the farmers and well-to-do of one the country’s safest seats.
Unless the cost of living crisis feels better than it is, then talk of inflation, debt and growth are abstract as Artificial Intelligence. Similarly, if immigration feels as if it is still an issue for voters, then what is the benefit of saying he has “stopped the boats”. Though skewed because of low-turnout and local factors, Rishi Sunak has failed almost every major electoral test he has faced in the last year.
