Sunak denies rumors of May General Election.
Rishi Sunak, the current prime minister, may be considering stepping down from his position earlier than expected. This news comes after the budget was announced yesterday, causing some speculation about the future of his leadership.

During an interview with BBC presenter Jeremy Vine, Sunak was asked about the possibility of a snap election in May. In response, he simply stated, "I'm not going to comment on that right now. What truly matters is the choice."

He went on to emphasize that the decision should be based on the election itself and the clarity of the options presented. Sunak confidently stated that their plans are proving to be effective, especially after the budget was announced.

Sources within the Conservative party have suggested that Sunak may be considering an early departure following the budget announcement. This comes after months of accusations that the prime minister is clinging onto power and weighing his options for the best time to call an election.

Back in January, Sunak shared that his "working assumption" was to hold a general election in the second half of the year. However, the Labour party has claimed that a spring vote is the "worst kept secret in Parliament," potentially pressuring Sunak to take action sooner rather than later.

Even the Liberal Democrats have been vocal about their desire for a May election. When asked about this, Sunak did not completely rule it out but reaffirmed his intentions to wait until later in the year.
