Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng today pulled off a screeching U-turn and scrapped their most divisive tax cut for the rich.
Facing a Tory mutiny including from Michael Gove and Grant Shapps, the pair cancelled plans to get rid of the 45p top rate of Income Tax.
The move from April would have saved 660,000 people who earn more than £150k an average of £10,000 a year each.
