RISHI Sunak's hopes of a flying start to his election campaign stalled before they even took off as he yesterday admitted no Rwanda planes will leave before July 4.

Beleaguered Mr Sunak also had to admit he has failed in his pledge to bring NHS waiting times down.

In a further embarrassment, it transpired a supposedly random question to the PM during a visit came from a Conservative councillor.
