[Mini-budget: PM to meet head of OBR following market turmoil]
[The prime minister will meet the head of Britain's independent forecaster on Friday after days of market turmoil. In an unusual move, Liz Truss and Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng will meet the chairman of the Office of Budget Responsibility's (OBR) to discuss the fallout after Friday's mini-budget. The watchdog offered to prepare a draft forecast in time for the mini-budget but it was not taken up. A group of MPs has called for the forecast to be released "immediately".] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-63080164 |

[Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng
met the head of Britain's independent financial forecaster, the Office for Budget Responsibility, after days of market turmoil The PM told the OBR she values their "scrutiny", the Treasury said, but will not publish their fresh forecast before more economic plans are set out in November Earlier, the pound hit $1.12 against the dollar - close to its level before Friday's mini-budget - but has since fallen slightly The government's announcement last week had led to a slump in the value of the pound and a £65bn intervention from the Bank of England] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/business-63084176 |

My view is that the tories spent the summer wrapped up in their own bubble and just lost touch with reality. They have never been so disconnected from the UK population as they are now. Truss will be thrown out by her own mp's, but i still think the tories will be wiped out at the GE so they have nowhere left to go.
