Today, His Majesty the King invited Rishi Sunak to become Prime Minister and to form a new government.
It is clear that tough decisions lie ahead but Rishi is uniquely qualified to tackle these global challenges and implement the manifesto on which this Government was elected in 2019.
In his speech outside Downing Street, Rishi set out his determination to place economic stability and confidence at the heart of the Government's agenda.
I am delighted that Rishi will head an administration which I know will be serious, determined and totally focussed on delivering the solutions we need. I am proud to be supporting him as our Prime Minister.
