The UK's ruling Conservative Party, led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, suffered losses in two parliamentary seats due to scandals and high inflation. However, they narrowly held onto Boris Johnson's former seat in Uxbridge and South Ruislip. The opposition Labour Party is currently leading in polls and has won six by-elections since March 2021, two of which were taken from the Conservatives. Sunak's government has struggled to reverse the declining fortunes of the party, partly due to high inflation and concerns of a looming recession. Sunak's popularity has also dropped, with a majority of Britons having an unfavorable view of him.
