MADRID, 25 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The main British opposition leaders have redoubled their calls for a political “new beginning” in the United Kingdom on Tuesday after the arrival in Downing Street of the new Conservative leader, Rishi Sunak, who has become the fifth ‘Tory’ prime minister since the Brexit referendum in 2016.
The leader of the Labor Party, Keir Starmer, has congratulated Sunak on his appointment, emphasizing that “he has made history” because of his Asian ancestry, but at the same time he has again accused the Conservative Party of “destroying the economy”.
“The population needs a new beginning and an opinion on the future of the United Kingdom,” Starmer stressed on social networks, which in recent weeks has repeatedly called for early elections. Labor is ahead in all polls.
Along these lines, the leader of the Liberal Democrat Party, Ed Davey, has stated that “the Conservative Party does not trust British citizens”. Davey lamented that it is the ‘Tory’ deputies who have renewed the head of government: “The population has the right to be furious.”
