I don't know much about this new prime minister guy. But for now, I will see how he plays out, since I have vague memories of other decent people on this sub saying some minor praise about him.

Another thing that is annoying is that this prime minister brings up the problems that mass tourism is causing Japan and yet he isn't closing the borders.... like why. ?

I don't know if he has the power to do that. And even then, I think halting immigration wouldn't do much about tourists. At the very least, I don't think he would approve of Johnny Somali.
