UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has faced the opposition in the House of Commons for the first time since taking office, seeking to provide assurances that his new government will offer economic stability and continuity after his predecessor’s tax-cutting plans triggered market turmoil.
Sunak, who entered 10 Downing Street on Tuesday, has appointed a government that mixes allies with experienced ministers from the administrations of his two immediate predecessors, Boris Johnson and Liz Truss, as he tries to tackle Britain’s multiple economic problems.
One of his government’s first acts was to delay a key economic statement until November 17, saying it would deliver more accurate forecasts as the government seeks to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.
