It’s the season for self-forgiveness. At least it appears to be in the Tory party. You’d have thought that Liz Truss would have wanted to keep quiet for a while longer. If not for a lifetime. After all, being known as the shortest-serving prime minister is hardly something to boast about. But far from it, just a year after she crashed the economy with the mini-budget that cost the country £45bn and sent interest rates rising, Truss was out and about at the Institute for Government giving a speech aimed at rehabilitating her reputation. And guess what? Liz reckons she’s got absolutely nothing to apologise for.
