The UK Will Have Its Seventh Prime Minister in a Decade. What Happened to the Others?
The article outlines the rapid turnover of UK prime ministers over the past decade, focusing on the six leaders preceding Andy Burnham. It details Boris Johnson's resignation following the 'partygate' scandal and mass ministerial resignations. Liz Truss's record-short 49-day tenure ended after her unfunded tax cuts triggered an economic crisis. Rishi Sunak, the first British Asian and millennial PM, served less than two years, calling an early election that resulted in a landslide Labour victory, ending 14 years of Conservative rule. The piece provides context for the upcoming seventh prime minister in ten years.
