Despite coming into power just weeks ago, the current Conservative government is already facing pressure to call a general election after a chaotic few weeks.
The announcement of a new mini-budget from Prime Minister Liz Truss and Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng on September 23 sparked huge backlash, with major tax cuts including getting rid of the top tax bracket for the highest earners as part of the measures.
In the days following the announcement, a large dip in the value of the pound and rising interest rates even saw the Bank of England launch an emergency programme to protect the UK from 'material risk' to financial stability.
