Victoria Atkins, the Treasury Minister, claims that the government does not have the necessary "headroom" to reduce taxes

The news will come as a blow to the hundreds of Conservative MPs who have been calling on the party to lower taxes from their 70-year high, both to boost the party's chances in next year's election and to improve the economy. In the most recent inquiry, the Conservative Growth Group, led by Liz Truss, has recommended that the 'unfair' income tax system be based on family rather than individual.

The omens of this biblical deluge were certainly not lost on anyone. There was gloating on social media, a lot of titteration amongst the Twitterati, and a sigh of shame over the BBC's live coverage. On one of the hottest days [in summer 2019,] the Borrows took over.' Liz will be concerned about the political metaphors,' said political reporter Nick Eardley, nodding sadly. But then, a kind of miracle occurred when the doomsters were going full throttle with gloomsters. The rain stopped just as quickly as it had started. As the PM's car came to a halt outside Downing Street, a few rays of sunshine managed to poke through the London murk. Somehow, the gods were on her side and Liz Truss made her speech at the podium just as she had planned and tradition demanded
