UK Prime Minister Sunak visits Uxbridge seat narrowly held by Tories

Description

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak visits the constituency of Uxbridge & South Ruislip with its newly elected MP Steve Tuckwell after the Conservative Party narrowly held on to the seat of former Prime Minsiter Boris Johnson by 495 votes. That result, driven by opposition to Labour mayor Sadiq Khan's expansion of a vehicle pollution tax to outer London, offered the embattled Sunak some relief, as elsewhere the Conservatives saw hefty majorities in two other seats blown away as scandals and high inflation took their toll.
