British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak issued a final plea on Wednesday, urging voters to halt a Labour Party supermajority in Thursday's general election. With the Conservative Party trailing significantly in the polls, Sunak emphasized the need for a robust opposition to prevent higher taxes and radical shifts in governance.
'This is what unites us. We need to stop the Labour supermajority that will put up your taxes,' Sunak, the 44-year-old Conservative leader, posted on social media in a last-minute drive to galvanize traditional Tory voters.
Sunak accepted the grim forecast, with polls suggesting a Labour landslide unprecedented since Tony Blair's 1997 triumph. 'We need to prepare for the reality and frustration of the Opposition,' said former Home Secretary Suella Braverman.
