The Trussites are plotting their comeback

Britain ’s six-week experiment in Truss-onomics’ had been an unmitigated disaster.

A year after Truss was deemed to have discredited the ideology for a generation, they believe it is more powerful than ever and set to shape Conservative thinking in opposition.

The Sunak-Hunt model isn’t working and in Westminster there are whispers that would have been unthinkable a year ago .

The Everything Everywhere All At Once approach will be taught in schools as one of the great political disasters of recent British history.

It was a policy of shock and awe, says Mark Littlewood , the outgoing director general of the Institute for Economic Affairs (IEA) The 45p rate of income tax on earnings above 150,000 (the top 1.5 per cent of earners) was abolished.

A year ago , Truss and four other Tory MPs published Britannia Unchained: Global Lessons for Growth and Prosperity.

They argued that Britain was falling behind its global competitors because of its “bloated state, high taxes and excessive regulation” Littlewood described the OBR as “a serious political barrier to Liz Truss getting her arguments through”.
