“This reminds me of when Boris came out with fresh tea for reporters outside his house.’’
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak woke up early on Tuesday to deliver McDonalds breakfast orders to UK residents as part of last-minute efforts to woo voters in the national elections scheduled for Thursday, July 4.
Katherine Forster, a UK citizen, was surprised to receive her egg muffin order delivered by Mr Sunak who was beaming with a wide smile at 6:20 a.m. on Tuesday.
Ms Forster posted her brief encounter with the British PM on X where Mr Sunak was criticised for using devious methods to sway voters less than 48 hours before election day.
“Had probably hundreds of McDonalds breakfasts in my life….not usually handed out by the Prime Minister though. 6.20am. Egg muffin. Wrap for him,” Ms Forster wrote on X.
But instead of appealing to voters, Mr Sunak’s act appeared to further piss off voters who described him “as training for his next job.”
