Mega-rich Rishi Sunak has sparked a backlash after saying the UK needs to "hold our nerve" on interest rate rises - as millions face the misery of mortgage hikes.
The PM claimed there is "no alternative" in the battle against inflation after the Bank of England ramped up inflation for the 13th time in a row last week.
He was branded "out-of-touch" and "not up to the job" amid growing pressure for tougher action.
