Did Rishi Sunak lose in Britain due to the anger of Indian people, know the main reasons for his defeat

It also faced resentment from people of Indian origin

In this election, Rishi Sunak’s party did not even get the support of Indians living in Britain. It is being said that one of the reasons behind Sunak’s defeat is the anger of people of Indian origin. Let us tell you that currently there are about 18 lakh voters of Indian origin in Britain. Out of which 65 percent people were angry with Sunak government. After Sunak became PM, these people of Indian origin had a hope, but Sunak could not live up to those hopes.

Sunak failed on the financial front

Rishi Sunak has been a complete failure on Britain’s economic front. Sunak did not make Britain’s economic condition better than before. Also, Rishi Sunak has completely failed to reduce inflation in Britain. Taxes continued to rise. The cost of living continued to rise. In contrast, the Labor Party came up with a housing policy to build new houses, which people accepted.

The cost of living has increased drastically

From the end of 2021, the prices of many essential commodities in the UK began to rise steadily. Due to which the expenses of the people living there increased according to their income. And thus a livelihood crisis arose in Britain. Issues such as the Kovid-19 pandemic, Russia’s attack on Ukraine and Brexit have been cited as reasons for the rise in commodity prices.

Housing problem also emerged as a major problem

Housing is a big issue in Britain and is also a big issue in this election. While Sunak’s party appeared to have failed to tackle the issue, the Labor Party capitalized on the issue during its election campaign. The Labor Party has laid out a road map to build millions of new homes under its housing scheme.

Sunak could not control the offense

The problem of illegal migration persists

The problem of illegal immigration has also increased in Britain. In recent years, large numbers of economic migrants and asylum seekers have crossed the English Channel by boat. Critics say the government has no control over its borders.

Britain has not benefited much from the Brexit deal

It is being said that the Brexit deal did not benefit Britain as much as it should have. It is said that after the Brexit referendum in 2016, business investment has also stalled. This further weakened growth. Experts say that Britain’s economy has taken a huge hit after leaving the European Union.
