Conservative party chairman says Liz Truss interventions should be less frequent

Former defender of Truss’s failed plans advises former leader to figure out new backbench role

Liz Truss’s political interventions “should be like sex in a long and happy relationship, infrequent but anticipated with glee”, the former Conservative party chairman has said.

Sir Jake Berry, formerly a key defender of Truss’s failed radical plans, said it is time for the former prime minister to figure out her new backbench role.
