Rishi Sunak ‘trashing my record’ is to blame for the Conservatives' disastrous election result, the former Prime Minister Liz Truss has claimed.
Writing in The Telegraph, Ms Truss admitted she stayed quiet during the election campaign “to prevent further damage to the party” but said she must “speak out now”.
The former Prime Minister said: “More than 250 of us paid the electoral price for this. Regrettably, over the course of the next five years it will be the British people who have to bear the cost of this failing.”
Ms Truss then singled out Mr Sunak, who she claims “abandoned” Conservatives principles by claiming that “cutting taxes did not generate growth”.
This morning, former Tory MP Conor Burns unleashed on Ms Truss following her comments, saying those around her are "letting her down.
He told LBC's Sunday with Lewis Goodall: "I don't think she's actually well and those who are close to her are letting her down by not telling her the truth, she is preposterous, she is toxic, she needs to be quiet!"
