Conservative MPs are threatening to bring down Liz Truss and force a snap General Election if she presses ahead with trashing benefits.
One Red Wall Tory told the Sunday Mirror: “There is no way we can allow those with little money to be left with less even if it does mean the Government falls and an election follows.”
It would take fewer than 40 Tories to vote with opposition parties to destroy Ms Truss’s premiership if she insisted on making it a confidence issue.
