Tabloid fascination with Rishis personal life?

[heartbroken22]

Who cares how rich his in-laws are? Let's just hope he can lead the country right. We're in this mess because of the handouts he gave out during covid. I don't care how many people disliked Boris but Rishi backstabbed him.

We’re not in this mess because of the handouts he gave during Covid. We’re in this mess because of a global economic downturn and a flawed policy of tax cuts from Truss. The massive deficit that we’re currently experiencing is partly to do with Covid (the general cost, including vast amount of money spent by tories awarding contracts for PPE to their mates that were never fulfilled) and even more to do with brexit. It’s hire incredible how the press still aren’t reporting the catastrophic impact that brexit has had on our economy.

I don’t care how rich Rishi’s in-laws are, but I do care that we have another out of touch tory at the helm.

It’s important to understand the context that our politicians operate in, in order to understand their personal motivations and potential biases.

Not that being a multi millionaire many times over stops him from being effective (because he is personally incredibly rich - this isn’t just an in-law thing) but helps understand his frame of reference and who he’s exposed to. surely you see this?
