London: The time for the decision of Britain’s Prime Minister (PM) is near. After a vigorous campaign, members of the Conservative Party are going to the last stage of voting today. Although the results will be formally announced on Monday, Foreign Minister Liz Truss is leaning heavily on India-born Rishi Sunak. It is believed that Liz Truss will become the new Prime Minister of Britain. Current Prime Minister Boris Johnson will hand in his resignation to Queen Elizabeth II after the ruling Conservative Party elects a new Prime Minister. Boris announced his resignation in July following the resignation of several ministers over his government’s policies and scandal. Around 2 lakh members of his party then started postal and online voting in August, which will end by late evening today. Polls show overwhelming support for Truss.

However, the political honeymoon for the new Prime Minister will not last long as the PM will face several financial and other challenges after moving to 10 Downing Street, the residence of the British Prime Minister. Britain is facing its worst economic crisis in decades. People are facing the problem of Moghwari or rising cost of living. The war between Russia and Ukraine has skyrocketed fuel prices and caused inflation to exceed 10%.
