british prime minister, Rishi SunakOn Saturday, he faced harsh criticism from the opposition for his lack of contact with the less fortunate. Serving sausage and eggs at a Christmas charity breakfast in London, Sunak asked an attendee if she was “in business” and wanted to get into finance. In the video that accompanies this news, you can watch the awkward conversation between the prime minister and the man who identified himself as a brigadier general.
The conversation started when Dean asked Sunak if he was “fixing the economy” of the country. When the homeless man told him he was interested in money and business, Sinak replied that he was also into finance, before asking, “Would you like to do that?” Immediately, the man told him that he first wanted to have a place inside the shelter so that he would not spend Christmas on the street. After that, the prime minister was surprised workers in the middle.
Angela Rayner, deputy leader of the opposition Labor Party, tweeted an excerpt from the exchange, calling it “intolerable”, while another Labor lawmaker, Bill Estersson, criticized Sunak for having “lost touch with reality”.
The rise to the British Prime Minister position in October made Sunak the richest resident of 10 Downing Street as the country grapples with a cost of living crisis.
