Conservative Rishi Sunak has become the United Kingdom’s third prime minister this year, pledging to mend the “mistakes” of his predecessor Liz Truss’s disastrous 45-day tenure.
Sunak addressed the nation on Tuesday outside 10 Downing Street after his formal appointment by King Charles III, capping the latest extraordinary twist in UK politics following Boris Johnson’s resignation in July.
“I will unite our country – not with words, but with action,” the former finance minister said, also promising unstinting support for Ukraine even while warning of “difficult” budget choices ahead.
