UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is facing growing disunity within his Conservative government, with ministers and faction leaders expressing disapproval of his leadership. This rebellion comes ahead of a General Election next year, with the opposition Labour Party leading in opinion polls. Sunak's leadership is being dominated by party pushback, as members urge donors to defund the party until major reforms are made. The rebellion includes former Prime Minister Liz Truss and at least 60 MPs who have joined her Conservative Growth Group. Recent opinion polls show Labour with a 20-point lead over the Conservatives, with voters seeing the party as out of touch and out of date. Sunak is expected to outline new policies in his closing speech at the Conservative Party Conference to win support.
