You're right the last act would be some sort of conjured up war/conflict.
Invading the Faroe Islands might be the one to go for, 'taking back control of our Cod', a sure vote winner

I assume this bad news won't bother Sunak too much as he won't be PM next year"

UK forecast for slowest growth of richest nations next year
The UK economy will see the slowest growth of the largest developed nations next year, according to forecasts.
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) predicted that UK gross domestic product - a key measure of economic health - will rise by 1% in 2025.
This is below the rest of the G7 nations, which include Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the US.
The OECD, which is a globally recognised think tank, said the UK economy would be “sluggish” this year.

Boris Johnson was turned away from a polling station when trying to vote in the local elections after forgetting to bring acceptable photo ID.
Sky News understands polling station staff were forced to turn the former prime minister away after he initially failed to comply with legislation he introduced while he was in Downing Street.
Mr Johnson, who introduced the Elections Act requiring photo ID in 2022, was attempting to cast his ballot in South Oxfordshire, where a police and crime commissioner for the Thames Valley is being selected.

tbf, he has form for not complying with laws he initiated…

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi
And more bad news for the Tories as Labour wins Blackpool South by-election.

Mr Chris Webb won the contest with a crushing majority, gaining 10,825 votes, compared with Mr Jones’s 3,218. And, in an escape that will still leave alarm bells ringing for Mr Sunak, Reform was just 100 votes shy of upsetting the Tories on 3,101.

The result is the third biggest swing toward Labour in by-election history, representing a 26 per cent swing from the 2019 general election. Party sources said it is “much bigger” than the 12.5 per cent national swing needed to win a majority at the next general election.
