Amid poll defeat, Rishi Sunak's legacy as first-ever British Indian PM secure
Millennium Post Delhi|July 06, 2024
As a downcast Rishi Sunak conceded defeat and watched the Conservative Party’s seats plunge to a historically dismal low on Friday, he may take some comfort in the fact that his legacy as Britain’s first-ever Prime Minister of Indian heritage is secure.
Amid poll defeat, Rishi Sunak's legacy as first-ever British Indian PM secure

The Conservative Party led by Sunak suffered a heavy defeat after 14 years in government, ending his premiership, 20 months after he was sworn in amidst political turmoil in the party.

“The British people have delivered a sobering verdict and there is much to learn and reflect on,” he said, during what was an acceptance speech on winning his Richmond and Northallerton seat in the general election.

“I take responsibility for the loss. To the many good, hard-working Conservative candidates who have lost, despite their tireless efforts, their local records and dedication to their communities, I am sorry,” said the Tory leader.

The 44-year-old was undoubtedly the underdog in the election, coming at the end of a long line of Conservative Party leaders over 14 tough years that underwent some seismic shocks in the form of Brexit and then the COVID pandemic.
