Conservatives to announce new leader on November 2 after historic defeat

Britain's Conservative party will announce its new leader on November 2, following former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's resignation after a historic electoral defeat. The party's worst-ever result, with only 121 MPs, saw Labour achieve a 174-seat majority. Potential successors include Kemi Badenoch and Suella Braverman. The leadership race will culminate in an online vote in October.
