PMQs in full: Liz Truss faces Keir Starmer for the first time in Parliament

The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “PMQs in full: Liz Truss faces Keir Starmer for the first time in Parliament” – below is their description.

Liz Truss has chaired the first meeting of her Cabinet ahead of a debut showdown against Sir Keir Starmer at Prime Minister’s Questions at lunchtime.

The Prime Minister finished appointing her top team last night and met with her senior ministers in No 10 this morning.

Ms Truss was expected to present them with her final plan for tackling rising energy bills and the wider cost-of-living crisis. The meeting lasted for approximately one hour.

The premier will head to the House of Commons later this morning to take part in her first PMQs at noon.

She will undoubtedly be given a warm welcome by Tory MPs when she arrives in the Commons but Sir Keir will be keen to set the tone for their future clashes by subjecting her to a brutal grilling.
