      Truss has just removed one of her biggest remaining arguments for staying in power 

      After allowing her chancellor to rewrite the government’s energy price plan, Liz Truss has just removed one of her biggest remaining arguments for staying in power. Yes, reversing the Kwarteng income tax cut, abolishing the dividend tax changes and the VAT-free shopping scheme are very politically painful. But abandoning the existing energy price cap scheme from April is on a different level of significance and leaves this government holed below the waterline.

Boris Johnson always attempted to make the argument that he got big calls right. This is now all but impossible for…

But the decision, according to Judge Caramuru Afonso Francisco,…
