UK: Truss is muddy water still Sunak may not get a chance_我的网站

一 | London, Oct 15 (UNI) Liz Truss is facing a backlash from Conservative MPs after firing her chancellor and announcing a second U-turn on a major economic policy.

Rishi Sunak-backers say "dissatisfaction is so high", however, making place for another PM in quick succession is not something the party can afford.

One former minister told the BBC: "we cannot go on like this indefinitely". However, several of Boris Johnson's supporters would do anything to stop Indian-origin Sunak from taking over.

Another Tory MP said the party was in a "state of despair" after the PM's Downing Street news conference.

Truss supporter Christopher Chope said "time will tell" if she had done enough to secure her position but those plotting to remove her were "hyenas".

Sir Christopher said: "We can't possibly force another prime minister out of office, we've just got to calm down and try to give the prime minister our support."

On Friday, Truss sacked her chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng, and reversed a key policy to scrap the planned rise in corporation tax from 19 to 25 per cent. The statement marks the second major U-turn on the mini-budget after Truss cancelled her plan to scrap the top rate of income tax earlier this month.

The U-turn on corporation tax is "going to be damaging to the prospects for growth" and is "totally inconsistent" with what she said during the campaign, Sir Christopher said.

Conservative MP for Coalville, Andrew Bridgen, said he thinks "there'll be a challenge to Truss in the next few weeks".

Bridgen, who backed Rishi Sunak to be leader, said: "Dissatisfaction is so high in the parliamentary party.

"Removing Kwasi Kwarteng when he implemented the policies she asked him to do won't engender loyalty to her."

On September 23, Kwarteng unveiled a so-called mini-budget to deliver the prime minister's vision, announcing the biggest package of tax cuts in decades. But the mini-budget spooked financial markets and sparked a revolt among Tory MPs, who urged the prime minister to drop parts of her economic plan to shore up the UK's finances.

Privately many Conservative MPs admit they have gone through despondency and into despair over the past 24 hours, the BBC said.

By going back on her promise to cut taxes she has now alienated some of those who backed her in the leadership contest for her "bold" approach.

It is not hard to find Tory MPs who think her time is up.

One former backer told the BBC, Truss had "appointed her successor," by bringing in Jeremy Hunt as chancellor. "Sadly I think that hastened her demise," the Conservative MP said.

Another MP called Truss's news conference "a mega-disaster". They said: "She will have to resign - she is worse than Corbyn."

Truss insisted she would stay on as prime minister to see through her "mission" to get the economy growing.

"I'm absolutely determined to see through what I promised - to deliver a higher growth, more prosperous United Kingdom to see us through the storm we face," Truss said.

The eight-minute news conference came after a dramatic day in which the prime minister fired Kwarteng after he returned early from a US summit.

Members of Truss's cabinet are not in open revolt. Many allies have been tweeting support for her and the new chancellor, Hunt.

Former chancellor Nadhim Zahawi tweeted: "It's time to get Britain moving. We are determined to grow the economy, eliminate the Covid backlog and protect people from Putin's energy warfare."

In a tweet, Deputy Prime Minister Therese Coffey - a close ally of Truss - said the prime minister was "right to act now to ensure our country's economic stability".

And Business and Energy Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg tweeted: "As a government, we must now get on and deliver the pro-growth reforms that will lay the foundations for our future prosperity."

The Liberal Democrats and the SNP have called for a general election, while shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves said a new government led by Labour is "what this country needs".

Truss has ruled out a general election until 2024.

Many in the parliamentary Conservative party think they have to avoid another drawn-out leadership contest where Tory members have the final say.

The idea cropping up most is a joint ticket with former chancellor Rishi Sunak and Penny Mordaunt. But after 12 years in power, under four different leaders, there are many old scores to settle in the Tory Party, the BBC said.

UNI ING。三天之前，根据湖人记者安东尼-艾瑞恩的说法，一旦湖人解决了股权纠纷的问题，他们就将密切关注尼古拉-约基奇的动向。丹佛掘金自2023年后阵容深度就每况愈下，掘金底薪签下德罗赞后球队薪金还在第二土豪线以上，掘金未来前景黯淡。北京时间8月24日，湖人媒体Laker Tom撰写长文：湖人在交易截止日前能否换来尼古拉-约基奇？他在文中写道：湖人队的问题就是缺乏一个真正意义上的第二球星，但随着下赛季交易截止日的到来，里夫斯、凯斯勒、蒂耶罗等人都可以被摆上货架，我们对NBA的了解是任何事情都可能发生，湖人的战略是保留选秀权资产，四名天资卓绝的年轻球员价值远胜首轮签。奥斯汀-里夫斯的价值超过三个首轮签，我凯斯勒刚刚交易2个首轮签+2个首轮互换权，21岁的卡尔与22岁的蒂耶罗也展现出了无与伦比的天赋，这些年轻资产合计可以超过9个手里选秀权。如果湖人要敲定一笔交易让湖人纳入这些年轻球员，那么尼古拉-约基奇是最好的选择，交易截止日湖人如果完成这笔重磅的交易那么这支球队将成为联盟第一夺冠热门。湖媒的交易模拟为：湖人得到：尼古拉-约基奇、卡梅伦-约翰逊；掘金得到：奥斯汀-里夫斯、沃克-凯斯勒、科林-塞克斯顿； 31岁的约基奇实力非凡，考虑到掘金已经错过了夺冠良机，这位历史级的中锋到了申请交易的最佳时刻，湖人得到约基奇后可以与雷霆、马刺相抗衡成为NBA总冠军的有力争夺者。传奇后卫+传奇中锋的配置是湖人队史的象征：韦斯特+张伯伦、魔术师+贾巴尔、科比+奥尼尔、勒布朗+浓眉，而东契奇+约基奇的组合将同样有机会创造历史。
