UK Prime Minister Liz Truss has defended her tax-cutting plan as “morally and economically” right but sought to allay concerns over rising government borrowing by pledging to be “fiscally responsible.”

Addressing the Conservative Party conference in Birmingham on Wednesday, Truss promised to steer the country through the “tempest” and “get Britain moving.”
