Rishi Sunak, a British candidate for the UK PM position of Indian descent, squared off against Liz Truss in the most recent round of public contests. Rishi Sunak acknowledged he was the underdog in the campaign to become the next leader of the Conservative Party but promised to battle for every vote during the first round of questioning in front of Tory MPs. The former Chancellor of the Exchequer acknowledged that not everyone agreed with his promise to delay lowering personal taxes until inflation is under control. On the other hand, UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, who has promised to lower taxes as soon as she assumes office, received a friendlier greeting at the event on Thursday night in Leeds, northeast England.
