Former prime minister is largely unrepentant despite contributing to economic pain faced by millions
It is perhaps understandable that after 49 chaotic days in Downing Street destroyed Liz Truss’s hard-won reputation as the Cabinet’s longest-serving minister, she wanted a chance to tell her side of the story.
Ms Truss also fails to acknowledge that the economic carnage she presided over has all-but-destroyed the Tories’ chance of winning the next election, with the party’s reputation for fiscal competence lying in tatters. Allies insist that Ms Truss does not want to undermine her successor, Rishi Sunak, or Chancellor Jeremy Hunt, who she actually brought into the Treasury to calm the markets.
