Sunak will not be prime minister a week after the general election | Peter Kellner

“Rishi Sunak is not stupid. He knows his party's in trouble. I think he must know, deep in his soul that he will not be prime minister a week after the next general election.”

Rishi Sunak knows the possibility of a hung parliament is “nonsense”, says former president of YouGov Peter Kellner.

Sunak won’t be PM the morning after the GE.

Correction: rishi sunak will cease to be prime minister ON THE NIGHT of the general election!

Sunak will resign as leader of the tory party as soon as they announce a new party has won, and then he'll resign as an mp and move to live in the US.

[wendymoney]

I sincerely hope Sunak will not be PM long before the election…

Sunak donated 3 million to one of the best American schools near his property in the states. He has no intention of sticking around in opposition, not part of his plan to be seen as a loser.

I am definitely not a Tory supporter but Sunak needs to go immediately. I was brought up in a Labour themed environment. Served as an A.E.U. engineering union shop steward, served as a member of the district committee A.E.U. Lots of support for Stammer and Rayner 😮 I hope they live up to expectations. I'm not holding my breath.

Giving Cameron a peerage, then Sunak appointing him as FM was the last nail in the Tory coffin....

[shawngrinter]

For sure, his only purpose now is to be the fall guy for the looming drubbing in the polls.

In all fairness.. if Mr Blobby stood i think we'd all prefer to put our trust in him
.. vote Blobby

[stevebrooks]

YouGov poll today puts Labour on 48%, Tories 18% (almost Liz Truss territory...)...this would leave Tories with just 13 MPs...

Ousted? I imagine he's already renewed his green card application and will be off to California the week after.

Correction, Sunak will not be leader of the opposition a week after the GE

[derekmiller]

Duh, he won’t be Prime Minister the next morning of the GE!

[pangkiatloh]

Rishi Sunak is not managing UK. He is managing his father in law bussiness with

[aleccap]

100% serious question. What has he actually done for the people of his country ? Anyone

[Tom_murray]

Why didn’t Rishi just call an election shortly after the local elections because from what I see the polling isn’t going to get any better for the tories

[Jim]

They could put Churchhill as the leader of the Tory party and they'd still lose. Trust is gone and for most people in this country, enough is enough.

[B.A.]

Yesterday would be too long. Get shut of him NOW!

[AdrianCrosbie]

He wont even be an mp day after the general election

[ndnddjkdkdndnf]

He should resign and call a general election. He is not elected by people, he is selected by party.
