Liz Truss will accuse Rishi Sunak of weakness on China in her latest attempt to return to frontline politics.
Though Truss acknowledged that she was not “blameless” over the catastrophic effects of the mini-budget on the UK economy, she said she still believed her commitment to growth was the right one.
“I assumed upon entering Downing Street that my mandate would be respected and accepted. How wrong I was.“Similarly, I underestimated the resistance inside the Conservative parliamentary party to move to a lower-tax, less-regulated economy."Within her first week in the role, Ms Truss announced her energy support package to deal with the cost of living crisis.
The end of September was the pivotal moment for Ms Truss' premiership when previous Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng announced billions of pounds worth of tax cuts in a mini-budget.
