The United Kingdom will have a new Labour government whose class composition will be radically different from previous ones.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Friday waded into a row over a new England football shirt designed by Nike that changes the colours of the St George's Cross, saying "we shouldn't mess" with national flags.
Sunak, in power since October 2022, has staked his political future on the scheme, as Britain gears up for its next general election later this year.
The dismissal triggered long and loud booing from the crowd at Lord's on Sunday and saw Australian players verbally abused by MCC members in the stadium's usually staid Long Room.
It was a year when death came abruptly to what otherwise were days of communal celebrations; when Britain lost a queen and Japan, its former premier; when inept leaders – corrupted by hubris – fell; and when nature again refused to be ignored. It was a year of another devastating war in Europe.
Rishi Sunak’s rise points to a broader, longer-term phenomenon: the growing prominence of the Indian diaspora across the Western world.
Shadman Sakib thought his father’s taunts couldn’t get worse.
We must wait till November 17 to see how Rishi formalises his plans to prevent a recession creeping into the world’s sixth largest economy.
Recent leadership changes may appear chaotic, but ultimately demonstrate political accountability
