Outgoing Conservative Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt and his family leave Downing Street in London after Britain's Labour Party swept to a landslide victory in a general election, ending 14 years of right-wing Conservative rule. Some senior ministers from the outgoing government lost, although several other big names narrowly saved their seats, including Hunt. IMAGES
UK Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt poses outside 11 Downing Street with the red, leather-covered box containing his speech before leaving to present the spring budget to parliament. Britain's Conservative government is expected to use the budget update to unveil tax cuts for millions of workers, in an attempt to woo voters before a general election. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's party, which has been in power since 2010, is well behind the main opposition Labour party in opinion polls and looks likely to be dumped out of office. IMAGES
