Why is the road not easy?
Goodwin said, ‘To be honest, I don’t think it’s that easy for him to be PM. I think the property issue is an issue in this race. It’s not just about getting rich. I am not against being rich. But the case of Rishi is different. He is twice as rich as the queen. We are facing a life crisis and the situation will worsen by winter. So that would be an issue.
Rishi is also a big threat to the party
