Former Rishi Sunak Adviser Collaborates with Tory Rebels in Effort to Oust Him
Will Dry, a former advisor to UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, has joined efforts with Conservative Party dissidents attempting to replace Sunak. Dry, disillusioned with the party's trajectory, predicts a significant electoral defeat for the Conservatives.
The ex-advisor, who resigned from Downing Street in November, has teamed up with other former officials and lawmakers who foresee a disastrous loss for the party in the next general election under Sunak's leadership.
Dry was involved in creating a YouGov survey, funded by anonymous Tory donors within the Conservative Britain Alliance, which anticipates a crushing loss akin to the 1997 Labour victory.
He warns that the Conservatives could be facing a prolonged period of Labour dominance, and potentially disband if Nigel Farage re-enters politics.
The survey's results were disclosed by Conservative peer David Frost, with the estimated £70,000 cost paid by the secretive Conservative Britain Alliance. In accordance with guidelines, poll sponsors must be identified, but only a representative's contact is mandatory, not the financial backers' identities.
Additionally, Simon Clarke, a former cabinet minister under Liz Truss, has publicly urged Sunak to step down in favor of new leadership, criticizing Sunak's ineffective governance and failure to connect with the needs of the British public.
