FORMER Tatton MP and chancellor George Osborne has predicted that Theresa May could be forced out of Number 10 within a matter of days, saying she is a 'dead woman walking'.

Mr Osborne, who was sacked by May and is now editor of the London Evening Standard, said there was now no majority in the Commons for a 'hard Brexit', following Thursday's General Election.

"The DUP need a deal because they are absolutely committed not to have a hard border with the Republic of Ireland," he told BBC One's The Andrew Marr Show.

"Theresa May's central claim which is no deal is better than a bad deal now becomes undeliverable because the DUP will never allow no deal."
