Sunak öser ur sig pengar – mer populär än Johnson

Rishi Sunak (born 12 May 1980) is a British politician who has been Chancellor of the Exchequer since February 2020. A member of the Conservative Party, he was previously Chief Secretary to the Treasury from July 2019 to February 2020. He has been Member of Parliament for Richmond (Yorks) since the 2015 general election. Born in Southampton to Punjabi Hindu parents who had emigrated from East Africa, Sunak was educated at Winchester College. He subsequently read philosophy, politics and economics at Lincoln College, Oxford, and later gained an MBA from Stanford University as a Fulbright Scholar. After graduating, he worked for Goldman Sachs and later as a partner at hedge fund management firm The Children's Investment Fund Management. He served in Theresa May's second government as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Local Government. After May resigned, Sunak was a supporter of Boris Johnson's campaign to become Conservative leader. After Johnson was elected and appointed prime minister, he appointed Sunak Chief Secretary to the Treasury, deputising for Chancellor Sajid Javid at HM Treasury. He replaced Javid after his resignation in February 2020, making him succeed former Home Secretary Amber Rudd as the fastest rising minister to a Great Office of State since the Second World War. His appointment coincided with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom; he has been leading the Treasury’s response to the ongoing crisis since his appointment.
