Harry Cole from theSun, “How come you get to stay?”

Ouch coming from a Conservative leaning paper.

Re: Liz Truss [Prime Minister]

If she’s so committed she should call a general election. Coward.

Re: Liz Truss [Prime Minister]

It was uncomfortable to watch her look round the press room, lost, she didn’t have a clue who to turn to.

What made me laugh was when she stated that she is doing things in the national interest.

A very strange national interest if the Conservatives are always putting their own political interests first.

Maybe the Conservatives are the nation and we’re just a left leaning snake pit living alongside them.

Perhaps those are the exact qualities she admires in her colleagues?

Re: Liz Truss [Prime Minister]

MPs saying they think press conference made things worse. A senior former minister: “she has to go”

I would have more sympathy if she hadn't spent the summer mocking her opponents for their warnings about her plans.

When May's government was falling apart I began to feel some sympathy because you felt she was at least trying to do the right thing in the end.

I never felt she had this country's interest at the top of her agenda
