(MENAFN) British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak owns a USD7.2 million beachfront property in Santa Monica, California, sparking speculation that he might relocate there if he loses the upcoming general election, Politico reported on Wednesday.
Three major polls released on Wednesday predict a historic defeat for the United Kingdom Conservative Party in the upcoming vote, potentially ending their 14-year run in government. These surveys indicate a significant drop in Tory support, with Sunak's unpopularity reaching unprecedented levels.
Sunak, who called for a snap election last month, cited economic challenges like declining living standards, rising energy costs, and inflation as reasons for his decision. With a landslide victory predicted for Labour, there is speculation that Sunak might move to California if he loses his position.
Politico noted that California has become a focal point in the election campaign, with "sending Sunak to California" becoming a political shorthand for his potential ousting. Sunak's luxurious beach home is located in a high-end area of Santa Monica, overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
The outlet also suggested that Sunak's children might enroll in elite schools in the area, potentially mingling with the offspring of celebrities, should he decide to move immediately after the election.
