"Liz Truss and the Conservatives are way past their sell by date. This is a government that can't govern, led by a prime minister whose authority has been totally shredded.

"People worried sick about how to pay the bills are looking on aghast at this never ending chaos and incompetence. The Conservatives must stop clinging to power and give the country the general election it needs."
