The Tories turn on Rishi Sunak, too many squeaky bums are on the line!

The Tories are eating themselves again as Rishi Sunak has failed to deliver anything but poll drops & his grace period is almost over.
Right, so Rishi Sunak might have hoped to turn things around a bit this summer, but he’s failed miserably and his parliamentary party are sharpening the knives as yet another unwelcome Tory Party leadership challenge is being mooted, with reports that renewed letters of no confidence have gone in against him, which I’ll come on to in a moment. Now his supporters will still claim he's been unlucky, that he’s inherited an ice cream sundae of a shambles from Boris Johnson, with Liz the lettuce Truss being the cherry on top and as much as we as socialists, we on the left can agree with such a point, Sunak has come in seemingly riding on a wave of personal ambition, but without any real ideas of his own. In that respect he’s not unlike Keir Starmer. The unluckiness pointed to will be the scandals that have been beyond his control from Nadhim Zahawi’s tax affairs to Dominic Raab’s bullying. I would argue he’s set himself up for this fall to an extent by striving to lead the Tory Party and achieving it in the manner that he has, not a single person voted for him to be PM, not the party membership who had already rejected him, the brown-skinned man, in favour of the epically bad choice of Liz Truss, but of course he only got the gig in the end through being unchallenged. I still believe if anyone else had stood against Sunak that last leadership election time, if it had again gone to a vote of the membership, he’d have lost it, because the membership do not like him. I believe his ethnicity plays a part in that, the racism of the right wing no secret, their culture war on migrants as a viable electioneering tactic appeals to people of that mindset after all, but aside from denying his own party a say in his coronation, the general public were again denied their say in democracy. Now the naysayers will remind us we don’t have presidential elections here, we vote for local candidates, certain parties and they choose who leads them and although they are of course absolutely right, it nonetheless doesn’t sit right with the public. We still have a sense of wanting to see fairplay even if in reality we often get denied that by stealth, but blatant impositions of the nations leader is a really bad look and replacing Sunak now won’t change that. But aside from the background to a lot of Sunak’s problems, he’s been a very weak leader in his own right anyway. His five pledges which he stacked his reputation and his chances going into the next election have all been failures.

►ABOUT ME:
Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on https://www.youtube.com/c/SocialistTelly)
I'm an unpaid carer for my disabled wife and daughter and as such we know all too well the difficulties that associated with that living in Tory Britain and I personally believe the answer lies in socialism.
This channel, along with my other social media act as outlets to push back against that, to demand better of our politicians and leaders, to pull apart the media spin that supports them and the way the UK is run and to give a voice, loud as mine is, to the voiceless.
