The two men bidding to be British prime minister faced off late on Wednesday in the last head-to-head TV debate before the country's general election next week.

With Keir Starmer's Labour opposition enjoying a huge poll lead, the verbal tussle in Nottingham in central England was Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's last big opportunity to give his Conservatives a fighting chance on July 4.
