Antony Seldon, a renowned biographer of Britain's last eight consecutive prime ministers, has recently expressed his disillusionment with the current political landscape. In his assessment, Boris Johnson, the winner of the 2019 general election, was deemed 'awful,' while Liz Truss was labeled as 'hopeless' yet 'destructive and fascinating.'
When evaluating Rishi Sunak's performance compared to his predecessors, Seldon identified two key shortcomings: a lack of vision and inexperience. Sunak's leadership style was characterized as 'miniaturist,' with a focus on niche policies such as placing chess boards in parks, promoting math education, and implementing smoking bans.
