COMING out fighting, Liz Truss swept aside Tory Party turmoil defiantly vowing in a rallying speech to get Britain “through the tempest”.
In an energised message to the nation the Prime Minister promised to protect the British people, saying: “I’ve got your back.”
Ms Truss hauled her premiership back on track, taking aim at “enemies of enterprise” who she blamed for stopping the country from prospering.
Addressing the Tory grassroots at the end of the party’s autumn conference in Birmingham, the PM insisted that she is on the side of people who do the right thing.
She said: “In these tough times, we need to step up. I am determined to get Britain moving, to get us through the tempest and put us on a stronger footing as a nation.”
Ms Truss promised: “You can trust me to do what it takes. Together, we can unleash the full potential of our great country.
“That is how we will build a new Britain for a new era.”
The Prime Minister came out fighting after a difficult week of divisions, saying “we must stay the course” in pursuit of her three priorities, which she said were: “Growth, growth and growth.”
She endured a rocky first conference as Prime Minister after senior figures in the party turned on each other over taxes and benefits.
Explaining her call to reverse plans to axe the 45p top tax rate – announced by Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng, pictured above yesterday, Ms Truss told delegates: “I get it and I have listened.”
