Reuters said that Sunak described himself as a serious candidate at the beginning of the campaign, promised to be honest, instead of selling "fairy tales", and tried to compare with most other candidates' promised large -scale tax cuts to form a comparison. Essence Tellas has served as Foreign Minister since September 2021. He has previously served as the Minister of Education and the Minister of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. Modatt currently serves as the Ministry of International Trade and has served as the Minister of International Development and the Minister of Defense.

According to British media, no matter who as the new Prime Minister, it will face a series of problems such as the current severe inflation, high debt, economic growth, and soaring people's living costs. In addition, with the advancement of the election, the competition is expected to become increasingly fierce, and the differences in the conservative party will be further prominent.
