Liz Truss tells Laura Kuenssberg - "I should have laid the ground better"

The PM tells Laura Kuenssberg she'll press on with her economic plans - but she acknowleges that she and her team got some things wrong.

The ±«Óãtv's Laura Kuenssberg says four things were abundantly clear from her long conversation with the Prime Minister Liz Truss on ±«Óãtv 1's Sunday Programme.

She says "Liz Truss has no intention of changing her plans for the economy; her decisions may well involve spending cuts in the next few years; she didn't consult her Cabinet over the most controversial decision, scrapping the 45p top rate. And she knows the last week has not been an unalloyed success.Her mini-mea culpa about the handling of the mini-budget was a straightforward admission that she and her team got some things wrong".
