UK’s ex-finance minister Rishi Sunak announces bid to succeed Boris Johnson
British Conservative Rishi Sunak, whose resignation from Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s cabinet helped spark an exodus of other ministers, on Friday declared his candidacy to become the party’s next leader.
“Let’s restore trust, rebuild the economy and reunite the country,” the former finance minister said, presenting a slick video about his life story to launch the campaign on social media.

Let’s restore trust, rebuild the economy and reunite the country. #Ready4Rishi
