Truss is for Turning

Handing the reins over to Politics Theory Other tonight. In the latest episode of Interregnum, Alex's regular series talking with Richard Seymour, the comrades discuss Liz Truss's leadership of the Tories and the prospect of her being forced into making significant retreats. The majority of the conversation was recorded before the Prime Minister did her famous 180 on the top rate of tax, and if The Sunday Times is to be believed, another about turn on raising benefits in line with inflation is imminent. In a weak position from the outset, Richard is right that Truss and the Tory party are ripe for defeat.
