But Sunak's grandfather comes from Pakistan and arrived here in 1960 so it's easy to understand that his family history is not liked to what our families went though.

His grandparents migrated to East Africa, and then to the United Kingdom in the 1960s.[21] His father, Yashvir Sunak, was born and raised in the Colony and Protectorate of Kenya (present-day Kenya), and was a general practitioner in the National Health Service. His mother, Usha Sunak, born in Tanganyika (which later became part of Tanzania), was a pharmacist and owned the Sunak Pharmacy in Southampton between 1995 and 2014, and has a degree from Aston University.[12][22] Sunak is the eldest of three siblings.[23] His brother, Sanjay (born 1982), is a psychologist and his sister, Raakhi Williams (born 1985), works in New York as chief of strategy and planning at Education Cannot Wait, the United Nations Global Fund for Education in Emergencies and Protracted Crises."
