From Rags to Rishis 💰 Multi-millionaire Sunak on the ‘hardships’ of his incredibly tough childhood in the #Winchester ghetto

Rishi Sunak's father was a GP, while his mother ran her own pharmacy.

Asked what sort of things had to be sacrificed in his childhood, he said: “Lots of things.”

Pressed for an example, he said: “All sorts of things like lots of people. There'll be all sorts of things that I would've wanted as a kid that I couldn't have. Famously, Sky TV, so that was something that we never had growing up actually.” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rishi_Sunak

“I went without Sky TV as a child”, says multi- millionaire Rishi Sunak www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c2qql1wk794o

More than 700,000 children have fallen into poverty since Tories came to power in 2010: That means their families have been unable to meet their basic needs, or give them much quality of life beyond survival (let alone Sky TV). www.bigissue.com/news/social-justice/child-poverty-tories...

After 14 years of Tory government the number of school children on Free School Meals (FSM) in the UK has risen to from 15% to 24.6%. More than two million children in the UK are eligible. explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statisti...
