Want to add new information about Rishi Sunak? Please consider choosing the most appropriate article, for example:
The following used to be part of the article and was quietly removed some time ago, leaving the current- poorly-formatted and nearly worthless- statements: Sunak's paternal grandfather Ramdas Sunak went from accountancy in Pakistan to work as a colonial administrator in Kenya; Sunak's maternal grandfather, Raghubir Berry, worked for the Inland Revenue and received an MBE: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10/06/tanganyika-westminster-grandfather-rishi-conference-speech/ Given they're mentioned at all, there seems little reason not to include these relevant, reliably-sourced details- relevant because they indicate Sunak's family connections in the circles of British/ colonial institutions and administration. Of course there are those who frown on even including parents' names and basic details, but this being an encyclopaedia some modicum of biographical information seems justifiable.
Reccomend a paragraph about Sunak's premiership in the lead, per other prime minister articles
Latest comment: 9 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion
As of right now, mention of Sunak's premiership in the lead is limited to one sentence: "Sunak took office amid the cost-of-living crisis and energy supply crisis that began during his chancellorship. He has authorised foreign aid and weapons shipments to Ukraine in response to the Russian invasion of the country."
Given the fact his premiership is likely to be over after the election (if the polls turn out to be correct), I think the time has come to expand mention of Sunak's premiership in the lead to mention other notable parts of his premiership. For example, Sunak has focused a lot on the Rwanda asylum plan and yet it's nowhere to be found in the lead. His five pledges could also be added to the lead as well (per Keir Starmer's five missions being mentioned in the lead of his article). Per all other prime minister articles, there should be one paragraph detailing some notable parts of his time in office. ThingsCanOnlyGetWetter (talk) 07:19, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Having committed a criminal offence the subject of this article qualifies for category inclusion in - Category:British_politicians_convicted_of_crimes

Nah - nice try, but: "Category:British politicians convicted of crimes says: ...."This category records crimes that are important to British politicians notability, which will in general be serious crimes. Normally summary offences, usually dealt with in magistrates' courts or similar, will not result in an entry here." Johnbod (talk) 13:58, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

At the start of the wiki it states that "Rishi Sunak is a British politician." However I believe that instead of having it a just "British" it should be "British Indian" as he is a British person of Indian descent. It clears up some confusion as many people address him as Indian because of his ethnicity. Azarctic (talk) 19:08, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
He is British Indian, but that doesn't need to be addressed in the first line. What's important is that he is British. We don't do "Barack Hussein Obama II (born August 4, 1961) is an African-American politician who served as...", for instance. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 19:25, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
