Rishi Sunak has apologised after leading the Conservatives to their worst ever election result as a Labour landslide swept Sir Keir Starmer to No 10.

Sir Keir will become prime minister after a Tory rout which saw former premier Liz Truss and a dozen serving Cabinet members lose their seats.

New Conservatives co-chair Miriam Cates says only the Tories have been in power since the “advent of social media”, and believes “Labour will also fall victim to that culture”.
