Liz Truss disputing £12,000 bill relating to use of Chevening grace-and-favour house

Invoice for ex-PM's time at Kent mansion when foreign secretary is thought to include sums for missing bathrobes and party business

Liz Truss is disputing part of a 12,000 bill sent to her by the Cabinet Office relating to her use of the grace-and-favour Chevening house while she was foreign secretary.

The bill mostly covered hospitality but also included missing items, such as some bathrobes, and dates back to last summer when she was fighting the Conservative leadership campaign against Rishi Sunak.
