PNN – Considering the election year in Britain this year and the many promises that Rishi Sunak, the Prime Minister of England made and did not fulfill, a western publication considered this year to be the year of the change of government and the end of conservatives.
According to Pakistan News Network, Switzerland’s “SRF” wrote in an article: Britain is likely to face a change of government in 2024. Elections will be held in Britain this year. According to the polls, the situation is likely to be tight for British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
This article continues: The British Parliament has never experienced such a situation, and in the coming months the tone may become even harsher. Elections will be held in Britain this year. Surveys show that there may be a change of government in this country in 2024.
For the past 14 years, Britain has been governed by the Conservatives, with recent scandals and decline being a feature of the party’s daily political life in this country. Kira Starmer, the leader of the opposition Labor Party, announced in her New Year’s message that a year of hope had now begun. The British people have the opportunity at the polls to make sure that things in this country finally get better.
It is not yet clear exactly when the 650 seats in the British House of Commons will be reappointed. According to the constitution, the prime minister has the right to dissolve the parliament, and he predicts that new elections will be held in the second half of the year.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak predicts that there is still much work to be done. He said about this: “We want to cut inflation in half, cut taxes even more, improve our economy, and especially stop illegal immigration.”
In the continuation of this report, it is stated: Most of these promises have not been fulfilled until today. The tax burden on citizens in England is over decades. More than seven million Britons have been waiting in hospitals for months for a medical appointment and the government has yet to stop illegal immigration.

“We have a plan to make Britain safe again and ultimately rebuild our broken country,” Starmer said.
This Swiss newspaper went on to write: But if Rishi Sunak wants to postpone the election, there are probably personal reasons as well: He has only been Prime Minister for a year and a half and according to polls, only 20% of Britons currently vote Conservative.
So Starmer has legitimate hopes of moving into Downing Street this year, and he’s already saying what his party does better.
He says: “We have a plan to make our country safe again, […] to improve the health care system for patients, create equal opportunities for everyone and finally rebuild our devastated country.”
Of course, he still hasn’t revealed exactly how the plan works. Promises and simplifications are part of an election year. But for Peter Hennessy, the famous English historian and author, these will not be enough.
A dangerous pessimism is spreading in Britain, according to Peter Hennessy, who recently wrote an article for the BBC. This article states: Since the financial crisis of 2008, we have increasingly felt like we live in a country where nothing is working right anymore. This led to public cynicism. Brexit also ensured that anger became a tool for political debate.
He emphasized: This situation has become long and bitter. If they fail to stop this downward spiral, the UK will eventually face a difficult end.
According to Hennessy, the order to get out of this downward spiral is decency and the desire for consensus. No budget or new legislation needed – it’s just a matter of goodwill.
But whether such a situation will manifest itself in the coming months is questionable.
