Jeremy Corbyn says he is "ready to serve the country" but refused to be drawn on whether he would try to form a minority government.

Following a disastrous night for the Conservatives, Mr Corbyn reiterated his call for the Prime Minister to resign as he claimed it was "pretty clear who won this election".

Mr Corbyn said his party had made no deals or pacts, but added: "We are ready to do everything we can to put our programme into operation."

He said: "Parliament must meet and Parliament will have to take a decision on what happens, when a government puts forward the Queen's Speech, we will put forward our point of view, we are of course ready to serve."
