Is it time for Rishi to boot out Liz 'deep state' Truss?

from The News Agents

Liz Truss was doorstepped by the BBC in Westminster today and asked to explain why she'd been talking about the dangers of the 'deep state' at a Washington Conference over the weekend. Keir Starmer went one step further in his Commons questions - asking Rishi Sunak why he hadn't kicked her out of the party for her 'tin hat' conspiracy theories? Keir Starmer loves Liz Truss as he's seen polling showing just how unpopular she is with the public. He's trying to tie her travails to those of a weak leader, too scared to move against the former PM. Later, is it the Home Secretary's job to tell Gaza protesters to go home? James Cleverly gave The Times an interview to say it was stretching police resources, and everyone already understood their message. Is that how protesting works? Is that how politics work? We speak to the former Met Assistant Commissioner Helen King and Liberty - who's taking Suella to the High Court today.Editor: Tom HughesSenior Producer: Gabriel RadusProducer: Laura FitzPatrickVideo Production: Shane FennellyClips:BBC, Liz TrussSky News, Chris PhilpYou can listen to this episode on Alexa - just say "Alexa, ask Global Player to play The News Agents"!
