Wealthy British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak asked homeless people when he delivered meals to the homeless shelter: “Do you work in businesses?”, seemingly unaware of people’s suffering. He also asked the homeless people if they wanted to work in the financial sector, and the other one said, “Let’s spend Christmas first.” Hong Kong’s “South China Morning Post” (South China Morning Post) reported that Rishi Sunak, one of Britain’s richest men and a former banker of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (Goldman Sachs Group Inc.), delivered the breakfast at a homeless shelter in London yesterday, talk to the man who calls himself Dean.
Sunak handed Dean a plate of sausage, toast, and eggs. He asked the other party, “Do you work in the company?”
“No, I’m homeless. I’m actually homeless,” Dean replied.
Angela Rayner, deputy leader of the opposition Labor Party, tweeted the clip, criticizing Sunak as “too tortured”. Labor MP Bill Esterson criticized him for being “ignorant of people’s suffering”.
Sunak, who became prime minister in October as Britain grapples with a crisis over rising costs of living, has become the richest owner in the history of Downing Street no.
The prime minister’s office said yesterday that Sunak made a surprise call this week to British diplomats and military personnel stationed around the world to wish them a Merry Christmas.
Sunak’s super awkward interaction with homeless Dean begins when Dean asks Sunak if he’s “fixing the economy.”
Dean later said he was interested in business and finance, Sunak replied that he had also worked in finance and then asked the other party, “Do you want to work in finance?”
“Oh, I’d like that” said Dean “But I don’t know. Let’s spend Christmas.”
