As a result of this vote, Liz Truss became the winner, leaving him in second place. Rishi Sunakand the official results will be announced in early September.

Nearly six weeks later, Tras was gone. Today, he stepped down from the leadership of the ruling party and, based on what was announced, will leave the post of prime minister when a new leader of the party is elected.

Process

ruling faction. Tori thus hastily returns to the election to elect a new leader. However, this time the process will not last several months, but only a few days.

As announced today, the goal is for the Tories to elect a new leader within the next week, by October 28, so that he or she will take office by October 31.

According to the first information, not only the current deputies, but also party members will choose, which means, most likely, the faction will switch to some kind of online voting. Deputies can first allocate a few people, and then the party members will vote between these people.

What remains to be known right off the bat is who the lead candidates will be this time around.

According to the first information, the current Treasury Secretary Jeremy Hunt does not intend to re-enter the race. Michael Gove and Tom Tugenhut also don’t seem to be involved.

OUR Rishi Sunak and Penny Mordant however, presented as possible candidates, as well as Suella Braverman and Kemi Bedenok. According to the London Times, Mr. Boris Johnson may also be a candidate.

Opposition calls for general elections

The opposition is on his side – parties workersfrom liberal democrats but also Nicola Sturgeon in Scotland – calls on the country to go through general elections as soon as possible.

For Labor Keir Starmer in particular, the electoral climate now seems extremely favorable, as they lead the polls and even by a margin.

The ruling Tories, apparently, on the contrary, consider considerable losses in the polls. Therefore, they will try their best to avoid a general election at this stage.

On the other hand, of course, the Tories have already begun to run out of any room for maneuver in the sense that a democracy cannot keep changing prime ministers without a general election.

As a reminder, the next elections in the United Kingdom are usually scheduled for 2024.

Now the bet on the Tories will be to restore as much stability as possible in the near future, first within the ruling party and government, and then in the country as a whole.
