Truss: Inflation is creating a difficult global situation

Foreign Secretary Liz Truss says the world is facing a "very difficult situation" because of the "appalling global headwinds" caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and Covid.

She warns a windfall tax is "likely to deter investment" and stresses the Chancellor Rishi Sunak is looking "very hard" at what can be done but warns that the government can't "completely cushion" people from the effects of inflation.

Labour MP brands Tory Minister embarrassing after TV blunder

Shadow Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds described a government minister's appearance on Question Time as "incredibly embarrassing" after he appeared to ask if Rwanda and Congo were different countries. When discussing the government policy of deporting asylum seekers to Rwanda, policing minister Chris Philp responded to an audience member’s question during the BBC One programme by asking: “Rwanda is a different country of Congo, isn’t it?” Mr Reynolds said the Rwanda scheme has caused "significant damage to the reputation of the UK around the world." The government's Rwanda bill, which was passed in parliament last week, says any asylum seeker entering the UK "illegally" after 1 January 2022, from a safe country such as France, could be sent to Rwanda.
