☆ Rishi Sunak Back in Hot Seat After Losses, but His Ouster Is Unlikely
  + stars: | 2024-02-16 | by ( Mark Landler | Stephen Castle | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak of Britain could find himself in a familiar predicament after his Conservative Party went down to defeat in parliamentary elections in two districts on Thursday: isolated, embattled and the subject of whispered plotting by restive Tories bent on pushing him out for a new leader. The crushing loss of two seats in once-reliable Conservative areas capped another dismal week for Mr. Sunak. Economic data confirmed on Thursday that Britain had fallen into recession at the end of last year, undermining one of the prime minister’s five core pledges — that he would recharge the country’s growth. Yet the scheming against Mr. Sunak, analysts said, is no more likely to go anywhere than it has during his previous leadership crises. However desperate the political straits of the Conservatives, they would find it hard, at this late stage, to replace their languishing prime minister with someone else.

(Members) should not blindly support a Conservative Party that no longer represents our values (and is) headed for electoral disaster. Independence Party (UKIP), was also in attendance and later said that a wing of the Conservative Party is "very much coming in [his] direction." "Two-thirds [of voters] think it's time for a change, and that's the real struggle that the Conservative Party has to turn around." Medical workers marched outside of the Conservative Party Conference in Manchester, England in a dispute with the government over pay.

☆ The UK's Conservative Party is gearing up for a new leader. Here's what to expect

Britain is preparing to name its fifth prime minister in six years. LONDON — The U.K. is gearing up to install a new prime minister this week — its fifth in six years — following the sudden resignation of Liz Truss, just 44 days into the job. Truss' successor will once again be decided by a Conservative Party leadership contest drawn from a short-list of candidates. Those include frontrunner Rishi Sunak, who lost to Truss in September's leadership race, and Penny Mordaunt, who placed third. Here's how the race is expected to unfold over the coming days — or, potentially, hours.
