Campaigning continued on Sunday with a defiant Rishi Sunak insisting the Tories could still win the General Election, despite languishing in the polls.

The Prime Minister made his comments on the BBC’s Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg programme, defending the Conservative record in government against what he described as a “declinist narrative”.

Elsewhere, Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar said he believed the election of Sir Keir Starmer would be the first time in 14 years that a prime minister had been invested in Scotland.

Earlier in the weekend, on Saturday night, Mr Sunak celebrated the UK as the “world’s most successful multi-ethnic, multi-faith democracy” during a visit to a Hindu temple in north-west London with his wife, Akshata Murty.
