During a recent session in the UK Parliament, Rishi Sunak humorously advised newly-elected Prime Minister Keir Starmer, saying, "On the Government Benches, life comes at you fast," referencing his own rapid rise in politics. His comments drew laughter from MPs as he joked about the potential for Starmer to quickly ascend to higher political roles, including Prime Minister, if circumstances change12. In response to Sunak's playful remarks, Starmer expressed gratitude for the "generosity" of his predecessor but emphasized a commitment to avoiding "wedge issues" and gimmicks in governance. He highlighted the Labour Party's mandate to deliver real change following their significant electoral victory12. The light-hearted atmosphere continued with Starmer extending warm Diwali wishes to Sunak, leading to further laughter in the chamber. Starmer quipped about the rapid turnover of leaders in Sunak's party, suggesting that he might soon find himself back in a leadership role. Watch the video to know more.
