I expect a reasonable number of Tory voters to be miffed since he knifed Johnson. And (perhaps rightly) be vocal about it.
Similarly the elite of a supposedly democratic political party installing it's candidate over that chosen by a membership isn't an ideal foundation to go forward.

Re: Rishi Sunak to become PM
Yeah the new one is a bit more costly than the old one.

Re: Rishi Sunak to become PM
There'll be another in two years.
Sunaks job is just to make sure the Tories are not wiped of the face of the political map in two years time.

No, but they’ve done it before (c.f. IDS/Michael Howard). The wider tory party doesn’t have the same sort of political consciousness as the British Left. They’ll sigh and get on with it.
