			Given the new prime minister  is going to be announced within the hour the latest  polling suggest the likely prime minister Liz Truss is not very popular with voters.

				Survation has released some new polling this morning suggesting that Labour has a 10-point lead over the Conservatives – but that if respondents are told Keir Starmer is the Labour leader, and Liz Truss the Tory leader, the Labour lead rises to 17 points.

 Agreed.
 
She inherits a 70+ majority from Johnson so not the end of the world in the short-term but the 2025 election and a potential recession loom large.
 
Immediate question is her generosity to business and consumers for fuel support. If she adopts the LibDem suggestion of freezing the cap at today's prices I would expect her popularity to rise significantly. 
 
As would government borrowing.

Expected future Cabinet members in front row 
 
Ione Wells 
 
Reporting from QEII Centre, London 
 
Taking front row seats here include some of the people expected to be in Liz Truss's future cabinet if she is announced the winner. 
 
Kwasi Kwarteng, expected to be the next chancellor, and James Cleverley, expected to be the next foreign secretary. But there’s some mingling between the two camps too. 
 
The current chancellor and Truss-backer Nadhim Zahawi is sat next to, and laughing with, the current deputy PM Dominic Raab. 
 
He's a prominent Sunak supporter and it’s not currently expected he’ll have a job in the cabinet by tomorrow.
