The Latest Breaking News from Conservative Party

The new U.K. Treasury chief has insisted that Prime Minister Liz Truss retains control of her government despite having to roll back her signature economic policies weeks into her premiership

Boxed in by market turmoil and a mutinous Conservative Party, British Prime Minister Liz Truss was left with two cards to play: hitting reset on her economic plan, and firing her friend and finance minister, Kwasi Kwarteng.

Britain’s new Treasury chief has acknowledged mistakes made by his predecessor and suggested that he may reverse much of Conservative Prime Minister Liz Truss’ tax-cutting plans, in order to bring stability to the country after weeks of economic and political turbulence

Jeremy Hunt was named Britain's new finance minister on Friday, the latest senior ministerial role for the self-proclaimed entrepreneur regarded by many in his Conservative Party as a safe pair of hands but whose days in top jobs had seemed over.

He was one of her closest friends and supporters, but Prime Minister Liz Truss sacked Britain's first Black finance minister Kwasi Kwarteng just 38 days into the job.

Embattled UK Prime Minister Liz Truss has appointed Jeremy Hunt to replace Kwasi Kwarteng as Finance Minister on Friday, while also ditching the cut in corporation tax in a major U-turn to her mini-budget announced just last month triggering major market turmoil.
