The demise of the U.K. Conservatives is a warning for President Joe Biden. The Conservatives seem set to be demolished in Great Britain’s general election on July 4.

Similar to the rest of the West, high inflation and slow economic growth have plagued the United Kingdom since COVID-19 and government lockdowns.

Simultaneously, the U.K. has been facing waves of thousands of migrants crossing the English Channel in small inflatable boats.
