British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak warns a looming hung Parliament led by the Labour Party, branding it a "disaster for Britain" following the governing Conservative Party's local election losses. Sunak vowed to combat the setback, acknowledging voter frustration over economic challenges. The Tories lost control of 10 councils and over 470 council seats, with Labour and Lib Dems making significant gains. Sunak's warning aligns with analysis projecting Labour to secure 294 seats, falling short of a majority. However, polling experts debate the accuracy of such forecasts, emphasizing the uncertainty of future electoral outcomes.
