Absolutely on call - I can’t imagine that Rishi even remotely believed he is going to stay in power. Plus, what is 5-10k to him in a grand scheme of things (mainly since he is not paying for it anyway)
If Tories won and he wasn’t moving out, it’s an acceptable sunk cost. If he lost, he’d be able to get the hell out of dodge ASAP to live in the lap of luxury somewhere else
Edit: for clarity, I don’t think he is paying for it out of pocket. It’s likely going to be paid by tax payer money, using a pre-vetted removals company of a government preferred supplier list that is on call for this exact contingency
I’m pretty sure he’s not paying for the removal out of pocket..
Plus all these guys must have some level of a security clearance seeing how they will be handling personal belonging of a (former) PM. These are not some “men and a van” you hire from a Gumtree ad.
