Liz Truss returns - and it could be trouble for Rishi Sunak, writes BBC's laurakuenssberg
Pilloried around the country, and the world, Liz Truss wants to tell her side of the story"Liz was mad but right. Rishi is wrong but competent."
Pilloried around the country, and the world, Ms Truss wants to tell her side of the story - to explain what really happened, "not the fairytales", as one ally puts it. One ally says "she doesn't shirk responsibility" - but she's expected to restate her argument for low taxes and an economic shake-up. Another member of the cabinet is less subtle, telling me: "She caused economic catastrophe four months ago, to say, 'let's have another go' is nuts." They add that "there are plenty of people in the party who will NEVER forgive her - she never turns up, and nobody cares".
And second, while nobody in the party would argue that Ms Truss went about her mission the right way, there are plenty of Conservatives who feel in their bones that her principles were entirely right. There's already an itchiness on the back benches about Mr Sunak's handling of the economy, and a rising demand for tax cuts that Ms Truss will help fuel.
