The Labour Party booked the advert for a huge digital billboard on Manchester’s Axis Tower skyscraper to overlook the Tory conference venue
A giant billboard poster featuring Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in the pocket of Liz Truss has been axed after word got out on the eve of the Conservative Party Conference.
"It’s clear who is really directing government policy. One word from Liz Truss, and Rishi Sunak bows down to her agenda of U-turns and unfunded tax cuts.” Mr Sunak has been accused of being beholden to Ms Truss and the right-wing of his party - as 32 rebel MPs vowed to block any plans to raise taxes. Ms Truss, whose premiership started to unravel this time last year at the Tory conference, was joined by former cabinet ministers Priti Patel, Iain Duncan Smith, Brandon Lewis and Sir Jacob Rees Mogg in pledging not to vote for any increase in taxes.
“More unfunded tax cuts for those who don’t need them, more gimmicks, more desperate U-turns, more undeliverable promises, more misery for Britain. The Prime Minister has always refused to listen but now he is trying to stop us being heard,” Mr Lord told the Mirror.
