The race to become the UK’s next prime minister is entering its last lap! After weeks of rallies, debates, and promises, Conservative Party members have cast their votes between Foreign Secretary Liz Truss and former Chancellor Rishi Sunak. The winner, announced Monday, will take charge of a nation grappling with a cost-of-living crisis and global economic turbulence.
