Every male prime minister from James Callaghan to David Cameron was 5тАЩ11тАЭ or above. The shortest in recent history, Rishi Sunak (5тАЩ5тАЭ), also went down to the largest defeat in recent memory. Interestingly the prime minister who won the biggest landslide victory since Blair, Boris Johnson, was just below average height for white males at 5тАЩ9тАЭ. But he was short in a way that suggested squat and stocky doggedness (eg, he played prop in rugby, where height is a disadvantage), whereas Rishi Sunak just seemed like a miniature average human.
I had no idea Sunak is so short. Here in the US, we've long seen how tiny Macron is, but Sunak's photos must have been staged or curated somehow to mask it. Maybe he wears lifts like Putin--and Prince Harry at the Diana Memorial unveiling.
What's the average height for recent Presidents? I'm guessing about 6'1".
I'm 6'4", which makes me kind of dorky. But when I think about the advantages of being shorter, I imagine being 6'2" rather than 5'6".
