The News Agents: Ten days to save Liz Truss

Global Global 10/4/22 - Episode Page

A senior Conservative MP has told The News Agents Liz Truss is facing a critical moment and may have just ten days to save her job.

Party discipline appears to be crumbling before our eyes. Ministers are openly touting policies they favour or reject and some are even telling each other to quietly go away. There is a restlessness at the Conservative Party Conference which tells you things haven’t really gone back to normal. And may not ever.

We speak to a Cabinet minister who wants his rebel colleagues to shut up. And to a former minister who says he’s propelled to speak truth to power when he sees a bad policy.


And tomorrow they all have to coalesce behind the leader as Liz Truss gives her keynote speech. How’s that looking?
