Sunak Suffers Another Blow: Labour Party Trounces Tories in Local Polls | Vantage with Palki Sharma

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has suffered another setback. The UK held local body elections on May 2. The results are out and Sunak's Conservative Party has been hammered by the main opposition, the UK Labour Party. The Tories lost about 400 council seats, and only 1 out of 11 mayors in the UK is from the Conservative Party. The result has emboldened the Labour Party leader, Keir Starmer, who has called on Sunak to hold general elections immediately. Reports say Sunak has decided to delay the general elections by a few months to try and win over some voters.
