After weeks of blaming the markets and “global headwinds” for investors dumping the pound and government bonds, Truss on Monday said she was sorry for going “too far and too fast” with her radical economic plan to snap the UK out of years of stagnant growth.
It is not clear whether her apology would quell a growing rebellion in her governing Conservative Party. Dozens of MPs are fearful they will lose their jobs at the next election.
Even one of her ministers said she could not afford to make any more mistakes – something that could be difficult when her government look for deep savings which could deepen an expected recession. Already the Chancellor of the Exchequer has refused to guarantee the budgets of departments such as health and defence.
Already, UK newspapers are having a field day poking fun at the embattled prime minister. 😂
How far and how fast has Truss fallen. 😢! But we'll see how long can she hold onto her job!
