Liz Truss tells LBC's Nick Ferrari she watched Love Island for 10 minutes and was 'horrified'.
Ms Truss said she did not want under-18s to be able to change their gender while Mr Sunak was quizzed as to whether he had stabbed Boris Johnson in the back - with members applauding the idea of the ousted PM being allowed to run in the leadership contest.
He said: "We will cut VAT on fuel. But what I won't do is embark on a spree borrowing tens and tens of billions of pounds of unfunded promises and put them on the country's credit card, and pass them on to our children and our grandchildren to pick up the tab."But of course, once we grip inflation and ensure that mortgage rates don't rise and cripple people, I'm going to cut taxes.
"So whether he's on the ballot or not, ultimately you need to be able to command the confidence of your MPs in Parliament, and we got to a point where close to 60 of them had resigned from Government."He stressed again that problems in Government got to the point where he couldn't go on. Pushed on her past remarks about whether the monarchy needed to be abolished, she said: "I have met the Queen… she has been far too polite to raise what I have previously said. Almost as soon as I made the speech I regretted it. I was a bit of a teenage controversialist."
