I often wonder why he bothered to make this career choice he certainly didn’t have to he could earn far more in the private sector without half the grief he gets from it. But as this has been his choice does that mean he can’t do he chosen career because his wife happens to be extremely wealthy

So men can’t be gynaecologists?

A male gynaecologist would have trained for many years in the anatomy of women and so be knowledgeable of his chosen speciality.

I have no idea of the Sunak's social background other than the wife is very wealthy. Mr Sunak is making decisions that affect us all, particularly the poorest.

If he has a history of charity work/knowledge of the life of the poor/philanthropic activity, etc then I'll put him on a par with a male gynaecologist.

Is that not the argument being made in the OP? What am I missing?

He spends £13,000 a year heating one outdoor swimming pool and that is just for one of his houses. I think he may have 3 but I am not sure.

Apparently his children each eat different types of bread for breakfast and I doubt if it is toasted the next day. That is not exactly how the rest of us live.

My male GP has no idea of what it’s like to go through the menopause, however he’s offered great advice and it’s helped enormously.

So Mr & Mrs Sunak rank in the top 250 wealthiest people in the U.K.??
How can we possibly take him seriously when he claims to understand people's concerns over inflation, energy prices and the cost of living?
I bet they don't have to choose between heat and eat!
