Senior MPs are now discussing the PM’s future. Some want her to resign within days and others want her to stand down after the implosion of her tax-cutting programme.
A few loyalists had warned MPs they would precipitate an election and ensure the Tories were “finished as a party” if they toppled a second leader in just a few months.
“It is a case now of whether she takes part in the process and goes to some extent on her own terms, or whether she tries to resist and is forced out.”
Another MP said it “would be grotesque” to allow Truss to endure another appearance at PM's questions in the Commons, after a series of humiliating U-turns, the sacking of ally Kwasi Kwarteng and the abandonment of her economic prospectus.
The battle over her future comes after an extraordinary round of interviews by Hunt, who said it had been wrong to “fly blind” by announcing a raft of tax cuts without explaining how they would be funded. On Saturday night, he said Truss’s mini-budget “went too far, too fast”.
To save his own skin, Hunt the Hunter, In a repudiation of Truss's economic plans that won Truss the Tory leadership, said:
1. That some taxes would rise while public spending would be held down.
2. There are going to be no easy choices – it’s going to be very difficult.
3. Lots of the things that people are hoping for won’t happen.
4. Further U-turns on the mini-budget are being examined.
Truss’s remaining allies are now battling to shore her up. Loyalists are urging the PM to force a no-confidence vote to go ahead rather than to agree to step down. Under party rules, Truss is protected from a no-confidence vote in her leadership for a year. Those rules could be changed.
“If we change leader again, we are finished as a party,” said a Cabinet minister. “When you’ve got both Philip Hammond and Nadine Dorries saying that if we change leader again there’s got to be a general election, that’s not light scare-mongering."
“If I were Liz, I’d certainly risk a first vote of no confidence. From the point of view of the Tory party, it is best that she survives. Whether that means she will is another matter.”
In an attempt to calm the markets yesterday, Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey said there had been an “immediate meeting of minds” between him and Hunt on Friday. However, he warned that “inflationary pressure” would probably need a “stronger response” in terms of increasing interest rates.
Despite Hunt’s installation as Chancellor, Tory morale remains low. In the mean time, there continues to be disagreement about the timing and mechanism for the removal of PM Truss.
My own solution to this extraordinary UK problem is this:
SINCE KING CHARLES III is now super-rich, after acquiring all the wealth, treasures and estates from his dear Mother Queen Elizabeth II, why don't he simply offer some of his wealth to help out?
Why still remain so quiet and act as though UK's problems are not his problems!
Just suspend the need to pay for him and his estates for just one year, would partially solve most of the problems!
Furthermore, as the King's personal wealth improves three to four folds, the country, especially the commoners are facing tremendous problems. So, it is only right that the Royal Establishment help out this time.

This particular King is totally useless and totally 'bo-chap'. He only guards his wealth like a hungry crocodile haven't eaten for years. With his present, he can forego whatever state payments to him and his entourage, and he will still be fine. But he thinks that he is Entitled. Therefore, no such thing as helping out the UK government. Period.
Just like papies ministers thinking they are entitled to million $$ salary.
Read our lips; it's the British Empire undergoing de-Nazification:
'Truss’ decision to increase government spending – not least to double the UK ‘Defence’ (who is attacking the UK anyway?) budget to £50 billion by 2030 – to send over £3 billion of military supplies to Kiev so far this year, to subsidise 100,000 Ukrainian ‘refugees’, and at the same time to make tax cuts for the rich (what else would you expect the Conservative Party to do?) has not been accepted by Biden, the IMF and, above all, by the markets.
Therefore, on 14 October Truss ditched her own Minister of Finance of 38 days for his decision to carry out her own illiterate economic policy – illiterate, as precisely and prophetically described last July by Truss’ rival as Conservative Prime Minister, the former Finance Minister, Sunak. So, on 14 October, Truss appointed a new British Finance Minister, the fourth in four months, a man notorious for contributing to the destruction the UK’s abysmal Health ‘Service’ (2). He will now do exactly the opposite of everything she had promised just three weeks before and on which impossible promises the intellectually challenged elected her.
Naturally, the hopeless Truss blames all her problems on ‘global factors’ and especially on ‘Putin’s appalling invasion of the Ukraine’. No mention of voluntary and suicidal Western sanctions at all. After all, would she want to admit to her own colossal stupidity? Here we see how Denazification and, as a result regime change, are already happening in the UK, all by themselves, just as they will in the EU and in the USA.
All Russia has to do is to sit back and watch Western leaders destroying themselves and dragging down their countries with them, until their peoples rise up in revolt, as is beginning to happen all over Western Europe, and as will happen in the US (we had a presage of this at the Capitol last year) and in its other colonies. This is Denazification, though perhaps more precisely it should be called ‘Auto-Denazification’. Or perhaps it could just be called ‘Hopelessness’? Or maybe just ‘Trussification’?'

Who is attacking the UK, or should it be 'Little Britain' anyway, is a good question. Creating a bogeyman to shoulder that accusation is the intention of Liz Truss. She wanted to create the Chinese threat as a bogeyman to carry out her plan. Many are asking, how much of a threat to 'Little Britain' is China, thousands of miles away? Are Chinese warships being parked outside the doorstep of 'Little Britain'?
Liz Truss was never able to handle the problems of the British, not by a long shot. Many were saying that Boris Johnson was the worst British PM ever, but that crown now belongs to Truss. She won't last for sure. If the Tories let her continue to run amok and later backtracks, the party will be destroyed by her. They have to remove her by forcing her resignation.
The most telling sign of how desperate the Brits are now, can be seen in the calls for them to rejoin the EU. Brexit was a disaster created by Boris Johnson. Britain is crawling on broken glass as promised by Angela Merkel. The EU market for one is a big access problem, and many British industries are shifting base to the EU countries. That means jobs will go with them and their contribution to the British economy will vanish. There is still the quarrel with the EU over borders in Ireland unresolved.
The question is - how many more days is Truss going to endure? It is days we are talking about, not months or years.
The latest health guru is Luiz Truss
No one in history ever helped so many people
to lose so many Pounds so quickly
It is not just paying Charles alone. There are other parasitic royalties being paid by the Government, all doing nothing. Some are even being paid not only doing nothing but had committed heinous crimes against underaged girls in Jeffrey Epstein's sex haven. Much was paid to victims to silence them.
If I remember correctly, Liz Truss was highly critical of maintaining the British Monarchy in her earlier political ambition, but now have not said a word about her past agenda. Backtracking on her earlier stand?
Liz Truss should go down in the Little Britain's history as the U-Turning Leadership - doing one U-Turn after another, yet still cannot get the model correct.
How did she manage to pass her exams in the University? Perhaps, through a series of U-Turning!
At the very first sign of trouble, she dump her Chancellor of the Exchequer. What kind of Leadership is that? He was the only one who had spent long, long hours and hours with her to come out with the plan. Yet, instead of owning up that it was her fault that caused the sudden downward spiral of the Stock Market, she simply threw the Chancellor under the bus.
How convenient!
Liz Truss is a clear example of very bad/poor Leadership!
From London:
"Leaders are watched. They are scrutinised. If you don’t like the idea of being held accountable and having to answer for your actions then a leadership role is probably not for you.
I don’t know if such thoughts have ever occurred to Liz Truss, who is still, at the time of writing, Britain’s prime minister. But perhaps the truth is beginning to dawn on her. She has picked the wrong time and place to discover that leadership may not be quite her thing."
Three Prime Ministers in 4 years! This must be a super bad time for England.
No wonder the Old King Consort and the Old Queen Elizabeth II died!
With the Super Powerful King Charles III holding the rein, there should not be any problem for UK at all. Be it the worst of the worsts, or whatever.
King Charles III is not only Super Powerful but also Super Rich, or rather I should say Filthy Rich.
He inherited twice the Wealth of the Mother Queen, plus his own his own. Altogether, they are three chunks of £1,000 Billions each.
By now, he must still be very busy counting his money and wealth. Still oblivious to the enormous troubles within his country? Looks like it. Otherwise, why has he not even offered any help?
From the wealth of the Monarchy, just take out a few £100 Billions to help the people, to tie over this very difficult period, would be the right thing to do.
There is no need to sacrifice the Prime Minister.
What do you think?
Charles is super powerful? That is a joke, right? His own mother does not even trust his capability to pass the crown to him when she was alive. Actually, she had little choice. The other one is a known molester and rapist of young girls. So the only choice is Charles.
She had another choice ie Prince Edward, the 3rd son. Both the first and second sons have been compromised. Therefore, the third son or Princess Ann should hold the Throne.
Liz Truss looks more like the shady woman from Soho, the red light district in London. Even if she lies prostrate naked on the ground nobody would notice her, not even a bull passing by. So,how come the British people and the Tory Party chose her to be the UK's prime minister. Just like the United States the Anglo-Saxon UK's decadence is beyond redemption. That is the cumulative result for being evil, wicked and the vicious and atrocious treatment of other non-white countries for the last over 500 years. KARMA is now striking UK, US and most white countries for they are all the same wrapped in evil and animosity towards others.

Charles only inherited the crown on the death of his mother. He is the first in line and according to tradition, the crown has to be passed to him, not the second or third in line, unless Charles is not around.
The discussion was not about Charles is super powerful or not. It's about taking some of his tremendous wealth to give to the commoners, and so as to help out the UK government. That is the point.
Don't just see the trees and miss the wood.
