British Prime Minister Liz Truss's insistence that she would not quit after sparking a financial crisis was met with howls of laughter, incredulity and shouts of 'resign, resign' as she spoke in the House of Commons on Wednesday.
In a rowdy House of Commons, opposition leader Keir Starmer said that a book was being written about Truss's time in power, which was due to be "out by Christmas".Conservative politicians sat in near silence during most of the exchanges. Some stared ahead motionless, while others looked at the floor.
A "mini-budget" last month had proposed vast, unfunded tax cuts, triggering an intervention from the Bank of England and a rebuke from the International Monetary Fund as borrowing costs surged, the pound tumbled and mortgage rates jumped.
