FORMER Tory Party chairman Sir Brandon Lewis has said Rishi Sunak will go down in history for the worst General Election result in over a century.
He told GB News: “I think Rishi is somebody who will feel this very strongly and ultimately he’s the leader of the party, he was the Prime Minister.
“He didn’t wait until the very last minute for an election and then call it when he had to call it. He chose when to call an election and he’ll know that he made that decision.
“That’s nobody else’s issue, the Prime Minister makes that decision.
“I suspect right now that’s weighing on him very, very strongly. The fact that we’re even in a position where the sitting Prime Minister is in one of the safest in the country and we’re wondering if he might be at risk, it’s a shocking place to be.
“He will go down as the Conservative Prime Minister and leader who had the worst election result in over a century.
“That’s not something he would have been looking to do when he became leader of the party.”
