Hardline Takaichi wins lower house vote to shatter Japan’s glass ceiling and pivot to right
- Takaichi set to become Japan’s first female prime minister.
- Takaichi’s election marks a shift to the right in Japan.
- Equity markets optimistic about Takaichi’s economic policies.
Hardline conservative Sanae Takaichi was set to become Japan’s first female prime minister on Tuesday after winning a critical vote in parliament’s lower house.
An acolyte of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and an admirer of Britain’s Margaret Thatcher, Takaichi received 237 votes in the lower house election to choose the next premier, topping the majority of the 465-seat chamber.
Her victory shatters the glass ceiling in a country where men still hold overwhelming sway and puts Japan, a close US ally, on a forceful shift to the right.
Her victory comes after her Liberal Democratic Party, which has governed Japan for most of its postwar history, agreed to a coalition deal with the right-wing Japan Innovation Party, known as Ishin.
Takaichi will likely be approved by the less-powerful upper house and sworn in as Japan’s 104th prime minister this evening to succeed the incumbent Shigeru Ishiba, who last month announced his resignation to take responsibility for election losses.
But her elevation is unlikely to be feted as a sign of progressive change, marking instead a turn to the right on immigration and social issues. After years of deflation, Japan is now grappling with rising prices, something that has sparked public anger and fuelled support for oppositions groups including the far-right Sanseito party.

Timothée Chalamet made headlines again after attending the Los Angeles premiere of his latest film, Marty Supreme, with Kylie Jenner on Monday, December 8.
The 29-year-old actor’s red carpet appearance came on the same day when a post on X went viral, claiming that he was involved with an Instagram model Sarah Tena while dating the 28-year-old beauty icon.
Sarah is an Instagram influencer who has recently resurfaced in discussions about Timothée’s personal life.
She manages two accounts, @sarahjtena with 277,000 followers and @azul_hermosa with 293,000 followers.
However, screenshots shared online revealed that the model had a relationship with the Dune actor from 2020 to 2023.
According to the posts, their connection started when she sent him a message praising his performance in The King during the pandemic.
Tena called her relationship with the actor as friendly and positive and said they later drifted apart because Timothée started a new relationship while she also moved on.
Moreover, those shared screenshots did not provide evidence of any cheating.
The claims sparked many discussions online with many fans saying that Timothée’s relationship with Tena might have overlapped with Jenner.
Meanwhile others defended him, pointing out that the Instagram influencer spoke positively about him after they broke up.
Despite the viral rumours, sources told PEOPLE that Timothée and Kylie are still together. The couple spent Thanksgiving with the Kardashian-Jenner family before he returned to Europe for filming.
Their appearance together at the Marty Supreme premiere showed that the lovebirds were united and looking stylish.
