REUTERSBadly lagging in the race to win Britain's election, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak went hunting for votes among whirling robots in a retail distribution centre on Tuesday, kicking off his first campaign stop of the day before 5 am (0400 GMT). The prime minister later surprised people at a motorway service station when he joined a queue in McDonald's to buy breakfast for journalists following his campaign. Sunak shocked many in his party and the country when he called an election several months earlier than expected. Sunak, a former investment banker, has since travelled across the country, giving speeches and attending several hustings a day.
