Liz Truss Speech Today Live | Liz Truss Sacks Finance Minister Kwasi Kwarteng | UK News |News18 Live

British Prime Minister Liz Truss on Friday dismissed her finance minister, forcing Kwasi Kwarteng to carry the can for turmoil sparked by her right-wing economic platform as restive Conservatives plotted her own demise.
The chancellor of the exchequer was dismissed in person by Truss after he rushed back early from international meetings in Washington, and before she was due to hold her first Downing Street news conference at 2:30 pm (1330 GMT).

Former foreign secretary and former Tory leadership candidate Jeremy Hunt was appointed as Mr Kwarteng’s replacement, making him Britain’s fourth finance minister this year.
