In the midst of rainfall, Rishi Sunak, Britain’s Prime Minister, announced a general election from outside 10 Downing Street on Wednesday. His decision raises questions given the lacklustre performance of the Tories in the latest polls, alongside brewing divisions within his own party. As we stand six weeks away from Election Day on 4th July, his prospects of victory appear quite bleak. With the campaign duration being extensive by Irish parameters, it makes one wonder if there’s anything that Sunak could do to sway British voters’ opinions in the run-up to the election day. Might it be the moment for Labour leader Keir Starmer to shine? The narration is provided by Bernice Harrison while production credits go to Suzanne Brennan and Declan Conlon.
