Truss supporters on the verge of surrender: ‘You can’t win’

Jeremy Hunt – just three days after taking office – scrapped plans for the UK’s sweeping tax cuts that rocked the Liz Truss government. It remains to be seen if this move will be enough for her to stay in her position.

The government is now in the process of setting a “new growth path,” as Liz Truss tweeted regarding the announcement of the abolition of tax credits.

“The British people really want stability,” she writes of the future plan to be presented in November. But it was more urgent than that and the announcement actually came on Monday.

British newspapers are no longer speculating on whether she will have to resign, but when.

By abandoning the controversial tax cuts, which were to be funded with borrowed money, Truss is already considered to have already given up on his own policies. Some believe she will be forced out in a few days, others believe she will have weeks or months ahead. But she herself has no plans to leave her post.

– I intend to lead the party in the next elections, she tells the BBC.

Anonymous departure requirements

However, there were voices from her conservative political colleagues that she should resign, although their identities have not been revealed.

– Now it is clear, we can’t win, says an unnamed government colleague and a supporter of Truss, writes the BBC.

“It feels like the end,” said Representative Support Truss when she was elected last summer to Politico.

– I think she will leave next week.

During the week, Liz Truss is expected to sit down in meetings at 10 Downing Street to try to convince her party group in the House of Commons that she should be given more time.

Truss can be saved from the fact that no one wants another party leadership election so close to the previous one. However, there are faster ways to choose a new party leader – who will also be the next prime minister – without all party members having their say, the BBC writes. Rishi Sunak and Benny Mordaunt, whom Truss defeated in this summer’s party leadership election, are being cited as possible successors.

Opinion polls show support for conservative conservatives has fallen to disastrous levels since she took office on September 6. On the other hand, the opposition Labor Party, led by Keir Starmer, has more than 50 percent of support, according to opinion polls.
