The Conservative leadership race in the UK has drawn to a close as voting ends, with the winner to be announced on Monday.

Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak have spent the past six weeks battling it out to persuade Tory members that they have what it takes to run the party - and the country - after Boris Johnson resigned.

Truss is a strong favourite to win the keys to Number 10, but allies of Sunak will hope a strong response from party members at the final hustings in London on Wednesday is reflected in the result.

As voting came to a close, Ms Truss released a statement saying that if she is victorious, she will ensure the UK "succeeds".
