Britain has changed overnight!
Presumably everyone has paid attention to the fact that the UK ushered in the sixth prime minister in 8 years, Keir Starmer, and former British Prime Minister Sunak lost the election in a heavy defeat.
Starmer was the first university student in his family, having studied law at the University of Leeds and then a master's degree in law from the University of Oxford, where he studied human rights law and became a solicitor in 1987. Before entering politics, he worked as a lawyer and worked as a prosecutor.
According to public information, Starmer has defended prisoners facing the death penalty and spent a lot of time providing free legal advice to ordinary people to help them use the law against the stronger. He was responsible for the "McDonald's defamation case" that caused a sensation in Europe, helping environmental activists who were sued by McDonald's for defamation, and thus became a well-known human rights lawyer in the United Kingdom. He has also worked with the British Federation of Miners to protect miners' rights and was Legal Adviser to the Northern Ireland Police Commission for 5 years.
This also became a stepping stone for Starmer to enter politics, and at the same time, it also gathered a lot of popularity.
In 2015, Starmer was elected to the House of Commons of the British Parliament for the first time, and in April 2020, Starmer was elected leader of the Labour Party. During these four years, Starmer pulled the Labour Party from the bottom to the heart of British politics, to be precise, back to where it once was.
As for the reason for Sunak's fiasco, it is actually very simple, after Sunak's hands, Britain shows no signs of improvement, and the empire that once the sun never sets is now declining, and the speed of defeat is getting faster and faster.
Britain loses in this "mad woman"
In fact, Sunak is just a "backstabber", and there are other people who actually operate the collapse of the British economy.
On the evening of July 5, according to CNN, Sky News and other media reports, former British Prime Minister Truss lost the election of the southwest constituency of Norfolk in the House of Commons of the British Parliament, losing the seat of the district.
CNN described the scene as saying that after the defeat, Truss refused to speak, instead leaving the podium with the other candidates and tried to maintain a "firm expression on her face".
CNN said the loss of the parliamentary seat was "an epic defeat" and an "unprecedented humiliation" for the "short-lived prime minister", because since September 2022, that is, in less than two years, Truss first stepped down after about six weeks as British prime minister, and now has lost her parliamentary seat.
It is not surprising that Truss got this result, after all, she is a "crazy woman" who is completely trying to "use Taiwan to contain China".
In May last year, Truss, a lawmaker, put forward a call for Taiwan's speedy inclusion in the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
Fortunately, Sunak, who was the British prime minister at the time, immediately rejected Truss's brainless demands, and also rejected his predecessor's request to call China a "threat".
During her tenure, Truss introduced the country's largest tax cuts in half a century, including the cancellation of plans to raise corporate tax to 25%, the abolition of the top tax rate of 45%, and a significant cut in stamp duty. Kwarteng said the entire tax cut plan would reduce fiscal revenues by £45 billion by the 2026-2027 financial year.
This move can be said to directly frighten the market.
It is understood that on the third day of the launch of the plan, the pound hit a 37-year low against the US dollar, and once fell to 1 pound to 1.0327 US dollars in early trading, known as "Black Friday".
Bloomberg reported that since Truss took office, the British stock and bond markets have lost a total of at least $500 billion.
It is no wonder that Truss was forced to resign after 45 days in office.
In closing, Starmer spoke about the relationship with China in the election, saying that the relationship between China and the UK brings a "long-term and strategic path", declaring that he would "work together where we can, compete where we need to compete, and challenge where we have to challenge." "and will work to improve the UK's ability to understand and respond to the challenges and opportunities presented by China."
Starmer is a man who understands.
It is said that the new official took office with three fires, and I don't know if Starmer can hold out until the fire left by Truss and Sunak is extinguished, bringing a turnaround to the UK.
