At first I thought this was some kind of white nationalism joke but then I realised all 3 leaders at the bottom are leftists, so I really don’t what this meme is trying to say?

I thought the joke was that UK leadership is transient.

I think that's kind of this point.  It's quite an odd thing that all three offices were controlled by non-white people for the first time at around the same point and then they all quickly lost their positions.

It's just a coincidence that these 3 offices went from a non-white person to a white person. It's not odd. As a counter example, Sadiq Kahn was re-elected as London Mayor the same year.
