PANDEMIC TURMOIL: THE UNITED KINGDOM AFTER THE FALL OF BORIS JOHNSON
Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Thirteen years of Conservative administrations in UK were defined by intertwined shocks. Brexit and COVID-19 prolonged and abbreviated the lifespan of Prime Ministers. An unfavourable external scenario fuelled nationalism and populism. In-between crises, pragmatism abounded. Theresa May rose to power after the Brexit-infused fall of David Cameron. May’s fate was sealed as long as Brexit remained undone. In spite of getting Brexit (almost) done, Boris Johnson’s populism did not survive pandemics. Liz Truss was the net outcome of those controversies. In 2022, “Global Britain” faces such challenges amidst anxiety, uncertainty and burgeoning crises at domestic economy and international relations.
