The former chancellor reveals how he told Liz Truss to 'slow down' her mini-budget measures and warned her she would only have two months as prime minister if she continued at the same rate.

In his first interview since he was sacked by Truss after less than six weeks in the job, Kwarteng told TalkTV's First Edition that his prediction played out, with Truss resigning after 45 days in office.

The full interview can be viewed on TalkTV's YouTube channel.

Putting blames on each other is really their expertise

"You'll have two months if you carry on like this.." said Kwarteng to the lettuce. Little did they know that the average lifespan of a lettuce is only 10 days.

He’s just trying to rehabilitate his career, can’t you see? Don’t be fooled by him, he eagerly delivered the disastrous mini budget.

Considering how smug he was when he announced it, this is a blatant lie.

He could have given up his ministerial salary by resigning if he had any professional standards.

He warned her over the reforms.

And then spent weeks telling the electorate that these reforms would generate business and create an economic boom.

Tell me again. What bit about this isn't treason?
