Senior Tories are said to be plotting to replace Liz Truss with Rishi Sunak and Penny Mordaunt as the prime minister comes under pressure just 37 days into her leadership.
The embattled PM is said to be mulling a second mini-Budget U-turn as speculation grows that her days are numbered.
One backbench Tory MP claimed on Thursday night: “I suspect she’ll be gone within weeks. It’s a certainty”.
