Liz Truss was missing in action as the UK economy tanked thanks to her catastrophic mini-budget.
She finally broke cover yesterday to let the world know she was going to change nothing – and denied there was even a crisis as the pound sank and pensions tumbled. It would have been better if she had continued to say nothing.
The PM did a round of interviews with several regional radio stations. If listeners hoped to hear an honest explanation from Truss over what has gone wrong with the economy, they would have been left disappointed.
