 TikTok will be banned on UK government phones, MPs are expected to announce, after security concerns were raised about use of the Chinese-owned app.

Cabinet Office minister Oliver Dowden will announce details in the House of Commons, the PA news agency understands.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has been under pressure from senior MPs to follow the US and EU in banning the social media app from government devices.

TikTok said bans have been based on "misplaced fears and seemingly driven by wider geopolitics", saying it would be "disappointed by such a move" in the UK.
