I’m not in a position to deep-dive into whether this specific story is true or not, but here is some information that I think is important for readers to know:
If you’re not from the UK then you might not know about Daily Mail news. This is a far right “news source” that has very poor journalistic integrity and often makes shit up. They have a very strong “anti-foreigner” agenda and heavily embellish or make up stuff to stoke up sentiment about “backward savages foreigners”. They are not a reliable news source at all. Wikipedia does not accept Daily Mail as a source.
Personally: if I see a Daily Mail source, I wouldn’t bother reading the story at all as the “news” will be of less value than used toilet paper. These turds thrive on writing rage-bait which then circulates on social media (this story currently has a higher upvote score than any BBC, Guardian, etc sourced news recently posted to this community).

Rishi Sunak can still influence the government on Microsoft’s behalf.
Isn’t Rishi Sunak married into an Indian billionaire IT family?
