Britain's next Prime Minister has been confirmed as Rishi Sunak. He will be take up the role by tomorrow - without winning even one vote or uttering a single word in public.
Voters, and even some Tory MPs, are demanding a general election now after his rival Penny Mordaunt crashed out of the Tory leadership race - and Boris Johnson withdrew last night.
Ms Mordaunt claimed she was close to the 100 backers she needed - but pulled out one minute before the close of nominations at 2pm today after a surge in support for her "unity" rival.
