Rishi Sunak apologizes for leaving early
Conservative candidates slam PM
Sunak faces criticism over early departure
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak apologized on Friday for leaving early from a Conservative Party conference. Many Conservative candidates facing electoral defeat had strong words for the Prime Minister.
Sunak's apology comes after a difficult week for the Prime Minister. On Thursday, Sunak was criticized for a speech in which he said that he would not rule out tax increases in the future. The speech was seen as out of touch with the concerns of ordinary voters.
Sunak's apology is unlikely to dispel the concerns of Conservative candidates. The party is facing a difficult election in May, and Sunak's approval ratings are low. Some Conservative MPs are already calling for Sunak to resign.
