Rishi Sunak has spoken of the challenges of being a good father to his two children, while balancing being prime minister.

Mr Sunak opened up about the struggle in an interview with former Conservative Party leader William Hague for The Times Podcast.

The prime minister said: “I have two young girls who mean the world to me. Ding these jobs it’s hard to balance being a good dad and doing a good job. You’ve got to prioritise this job because it’s an important job and you are doing it on behalf of the country.”
