I don’t think The Sun is trying to convince people to vote Labour, I think they just don’t want to be on the losing side, so that’s why they’re not backing Rishi.
They even say in their piece that they support many of Rishi’s policies. Then they reluctantly say “it is time for Labour”, which sounds to me like a bitter acceptance that Labour will likely win, rather than them encouraging people to vote for Labour.
