As Boris Johnson''s crumbling majority turned to rubble and Nigel Farage''s Reform marched into the vacuum, a question hung over British politics that would once have seemed\u003cbr\u003eabsurd: is this the end of the Tories as an independent force?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom inheriting Liz Truss''s collapsed premiership - the pound in freefall, the bond markets and Conservative Party\u003cbr\u003ein revolt - through the domestic battles over the Rwanda Asylum Plan and the agenda-dominating wars in Ukraine and Gaza, to the crushing 2023 local elections, Sunak''s time in Downing Street was one of unrelenting turbulence and hard choices.
