From the economy to Rwanda, Rishi Sunak inherits a hefty in-tray

As crises and party management problems loom, PM must act quickly to try to reverse Tories' poor poll ratings

Rishi Sunak is inheriting a hefty in-tray of issues, with several looming crises and party management problems piling up as he takes the reins as prime minister.

Given he was out of government for about three months, Sunak has not been privy to some of the day-to-day issues filling ministers' red boxes. So he will have to act quickly if he stands a chance of reversing the Conservative party's deteriorating poll ratings, and prove he can deliver.
