Liz Truss apologises for going ‘too far and too fast’ with economic changes – as it happened

Latest updates: In BBC interview, Liz Truss refuses say if her vision is dead' and vows to fight next election

Judging by what Conservative MPs have been telling journalists in private over the last few days, the consensus (but not unanimous) view among Tories seems to be that Liz Truss will have to be replaced as party leader before the next election. But very few MPs are saying that in public, and Sky's Tom Larkin, who is running a spreadsheet of Tories calling for Truss's resignation, has only got three names on it.

Damian Green, the former first secretary of state, was on the Today programme and you would expect him to be on the Larkin list. He is chair of the One Nation Conservatives caucus, the group most horrified by Truss's experiment with hardline free market ideology. But he insisted that Truss did have the credibility to carry on as PM, despite the fact she is abandoning most of the key tax policies at the heart of her leadership campaign. He explained:

She is a pragmatist - she's realised that the first budget didn't work in spectacular fashion, so she's now taken the sensible view that we will now try something else, and she's appointed a very sensible chancellor in Jeremy Hunt.

I obviously don't know what he's going to say, but clearly what he's going to do is already beginning to reassure the markets, and I hope will continue to do so afterwards.

Yes, because if she leads us into the next election, that will mean that the next two years have been a lot more successful than the past four weeks have been. That would not only be good for the Conservative party, that would be particularly good for the country as well, so I think everyone would welcome that.
