Gleeful Fulham fans rubbed salt in Rishi Sunak's wounds as the Prime Minister watched his boyhood club Southampton suffer relegation from the Premier League.
The Saints will play in the Championship next season after suffering a 2-0 loss to Fulham at St Mary's on Saturday afternoon. Second-half goals from Carlos Vinicius and Aleksandar Mitrovic secured the three points for Marco Silva's side, as well as Southampton's fate.
Sunak was born in Southampton and supports his local team. The struggling PM will be hoping the Conservatives avoid a similar fate in relegation to the opposition benches at the next general election, set to take place next year. Labour are currently several points ahead in the polls.
