UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has come under criticism for using a “taxpayer-funded” short VIP helicopter ride to travel to a pharmacy in his constituency. Sunak was reportedly accompanied by his security detail on the 1.4-mile trip, which cost around £1,000. Opponents accused the PM of wasting public funds and failing to set a good example during a time of economic hardship. However, a spokesperson for Sunak defended the decision, stating that the helicopter was used to save time and allow the PM to fulfill his duties efficiently.
