LONDON - Rishi Sunak is one of the wealthiest people in Britain and will soon be the most powerful when he becomes prime minister. It will be the first time in history that the residents of Downing Street are richer than those of Buckingham Palace.
Brits are used to being ruled by elites - Boris Johnson was about as elite as they come - but Sunak is not just rich, he is super rich, which has prompted some to ask whether his vast fortune makes him too rich to be prime minister?
