UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has admitted to failing his key pledge to cut NHS waiting lists, acknowledging the lack of progress during a TalkTV interview with Piers Morgan. Sunak's admission was prompted by Morgan sharing a shocking personal story about his mother's extensive wait in a hospital corridor. The Prime Minister cited the pandemic and recent strike actions by doctors as contributing factors to the NHS's challenges. This issue is one of Sunak's five key pledges, and his inability to meet it has drawn criticism from political opponents and the public.
