Great maneuvers underway in the British Conservative Party to find the new leader and to give the London government a new premier , after the resignation of Liz Truss , who left Downing Street less than two months after taking office, overwhelmed by the controversy over the new economic plan aimed at cutting rates for the richest citizens.

To replace Truss, the name of former chancellor Rishi Sunak is named, who has reached a hundred supporters among the Tory exponents. Former Health Secretary Matt Hancock also supported his candidacy.

But the hypothesis of a resounding comeback of Boris Johnson , who also resigned in recent months - after the party scandal during the Covid lockdown and after a series of not exactly exciting results of his executive - to leave the post at Truss, which lasted a little over 40 days at the helm of the government.
