Sunak reveals he fasts at the beginning of the week

The PM has said he tries to fast at the start of the week so he can indulge in his “weakness for sugary things” on other days.

Rishi Sunak told the BBC’s health editor Hugh Pym it was an “important discipline” for him, as he also spoke about the government’s clampdown on disposable vapes.
