All right, Alexander, let's talk about the situation in the UK as we are getting close to Independence Day, July 4th, also known as the elections in Britain.

0:14.8

So we have a number, we have a number two party now in the form of Nigel Farage's Reform UK. They have replaced Vitoris as the

0:27.5

second most popular party according to a U-Gov poll in the UKK. Big news. Labor, from what I understand,

0:35.9

is still way ahead polling at something like 37 or 38%.

0:40.3

So what's going on in the UK?

Well, what we are witnessing is the complete implosion of a government in a way that I've never seen happen before.

They do not have a proper election campaign underway.

1:51.4

It's become completely clear that Rishi Sunak is completely out of his depth in real electoral politics. He's never conducted an election,

2:03.6

a proper election in his life. He was parachuted into the prime minister's job. He's not got

2:10.4

any real program that is at all attractive to the British people. And to be frank, I do think he's even very interested in campaigning.

2:20.8

I get the sense more that he's going through the motions of campaigning
