Prime Minister Liz Truss has resigned after just six weeks in the job.
She has become the UK's shortest-ever PM after delivering an extraordinary statement outside Number 10. It comes just 24 hours after she declared 'I'm a fighter, not a quitter'.
Her resignation came after Ms Truss met with Sir Graham Brady, chair of the 1922 backbench committee, in Downing Street on Thursday. There have been weeks of turmoil in government, which included former Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng being sacked.
