LIZ Truss will make her Downing Street statement TODAY after more than a dozen Tory MPs called on her to resign.
More Tory MPs – including sacked Home Secretary Suella Braverman – today lashed out at their leader as her authority drained away.
Fifteen Conservative backbenchers have now publicly called for the PM to go, with dozens more saying they want her out in private.
And this morning head honcho of the 1922 backbench committee Sir Graham Brady went to visit the PM in Downing Street.
It falls to Sir Graham to inform the PM if and when she’s lost the confidence of most of her MPs.
The Sun understands Ms Truss requested the meeting this morning to be updated on the party mood.
A spokesperson for the PM admitted “yesterday was a difficult day” but added there are “no plans for any change” and “the Prime Minister will continue beyond the 31st”.
This morning Transport Secretary Anne-Marie Trevelyan on five occasions could not say for certain whether Ms Truss will lead the Tories into the next general election.
When asked by Times Radio if she would, the Cabinet Minister replied: “I think at the moment that is still the case”.
And Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle this morning confirmed parliamentary authorities will investigate claims Tory MPs were manhandled into voting lobbies last night by riled-up ministers.
