Liz Truss energy crisis plan "kicks the can down the road" | Andrew Marr | New Statesman

Andrew Marr says Liz Truss faces "rebels on all sides". Will her first few days silence her critics? Subscribe:    / @newstatesman   Liz Truss is now Prime Minister. She has faced her first PMQs and announced her energy crisis package - but has faced anger from the parliamentary party for appointing a cabinet of friends and ideological allies. She inherited a divided conservative party from Boris Johnson, and has been forced to make immediate, dramatic, policy interventions over the cost of living and energy crisis. In this video podcast, Andrew Marr argues that Truss faces "rebels from all sides" - but has been quick to establish an ideological distinction from Keir Starmer and Labour on the issue of windfall taxes and inflation.
