The Guardian - Truss fights for survival as Tory rebel MPs warn that ‘game is up’

Summary of the front page

Even Liz Truss’s allies are warning she has just days to revive her premiership, The Guardian reports. 

The paper says the PM is “fighting for her political survival” after Tory MP Crispin Blunt broke ranks and publicly called for the PM to resign – “Game is up” he declared. The paper says ministers are “waiting anxiously” for the markets to open this morning, the paper notes, to see if the PM’s decision to sack her former chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng, has paid off. 

The front page also leaves room for the independent review of the Met Police – with Louise Casey concluding in her report that there’s “misogyny and systemic racism” in the force’s misconduct procedures.
