Liz Truss has defended the mini-budget in the face of financial turmoil, saying the Government 'had to take urgent action'
Liz Truss has stood firm on her mini budget, saying the Government "had to take urgent action", despite it triggering a drop in the pound and forcing the Bank of England to buy £65bn of debt to calm markets and prevent pensions being put at risk.
MPs said Mr Kwarteng would have to resign if the party is to survive the crisis, and urged the Prime Minister to reverse her plan to scrap the top 45p tax rate. The Bank's action is designed to add more demand for gilts and and pump up their prices - which in turn brings down the interest rates. He added: "We think they are the right plans because they make our economy competitive. At the end of the day, that is ultimately what we have got to do.
Opposition parties demanded that Parliament be recalled and Tory grandees such as Kenneth Clarke called for a rethink.
