It’s all over bar the outing. Liz Truss is finished. The only question now is the manner of her departure. Her place in the history books is likely to be that of the shortest-serving PM ever.
Given the mess she has made of the economy in just 41 days, we hope her tenure is now as brief as possible.
Tories are squabbling among themselves over who should replace Ms Truss. Today we reveal that Defence Secretary Ben Wallace is favourite. But this decision should not be left to them. We, the voters, should have our say.
