Image: Xinhua News Agency/PA Images UK CHANCELLOR JEREMY Hunt will today set out billions of pounds of savings to stabilise the public finances in an emergency statement.
Yet those efforts could come to nought this week if Tory MPs decide that a change of leader is required, with three members of Truss’s parliamentary party already breaking ranks to call on her to go. Hunt, who carried out something of a media blitz on behalf of the prime minister over the weekend, insisted that she was still in charge even as he diagnosed the need for a tough package of tax rises and spending cuts in order to steady the UK economy.
“But we have a couple of things on our side. Despite the factionalism in the run-up to and aftermath of Brexit, our MPs are overwhelmingly predisposed to supporting a competent leader.”Earlier Hunt told the BBC’s Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg programme that Truss remains “in charge” and insisted voters can still put their faith in her.
