Rishi Sunak will today vow to repair Britain’s “broken” political system, saying voters are fed up after 30 years of “nothing ever changing”, the Daily Express understands.
The PM will lay out his vision to “fundamentally” reform the country by taking tough long-term choices instead of the easy quick wins, as well as ditching HS2’s next phase.
Mr Sunak is expected to say: “There is the undeniable sense that politics just doesn’t work the way it should. A feeling that Westminster is a broken system – and the same goes for Holyrood, Cardiff Bay and Stormont.
“It isn’t anger, it is an exhaustion with politics. In particular, politicians saying things, and then nothing ever changing. And you know what? People are right.
“Politics doesn’t work the way it should. We’ve had 30 years of a political system which incentivises the easy decision, not the right one. Thirty years of vested interests standing in the way of change.”
