The number of people supporting calls for a general election has increased since Liz Truss resigned as Prime Minister.
The former prime minister has flown back to the UK, with many in his party tipping him to return to power after Liz Truss dramatically quit.
“I will stay in the job to deliver for the national interest", the prime minister told the BBC, struggling to keep a straight face.
“As the old saying goes, if you don’t laugh, you cry," a Labour source said.
Such an outcome seems far fetched, but it is not without precedent...
It comes as a petition calling for the government to go to the polls to "end the chaos" is set to be debated in parliament on Monday.

"If Liz wants a whole new mandate, she must take to the country"
"This is the greatest set of challenges we have seen in our lifetimes. Let the people decide who leads us through this turmoil."
