Grant Shapps has said Liz Truss had the right priorities but failed as she did not try to deal with the "big structural issues" first.

The Business Secretary said he agreed the UK should have a low-tax economy, as the short-lived Prime Minister advocated, but inflation and debt needed to be dealt with first.

He was speaking after Ms Truss released a 4,000-word essay in the Sunday Telegraph about what she had wanted to do as PM and why she thought it did not work.

He said: "I noted that she said that they hadn't prepared the ground for these big tax changes.

"And I think the truth is, and we know this, what you've got to do first is deal with the big sort of structural issues. Deal with inflation first, deal with the debt so you're on a downward trajectory.

"And then you look towards tax cuts."
