As Liz Truss is forced out of office, Britain will have its third prime minister this year. Whether it's Rishi Sunak, Penny Mordaunt or indeed Boris Johnson - who is plotting a return - this farce leaves Britain in an economic and soil death spiral.

And how much is the Tory crisis about something far more profound - a broken economic model that itself has to go?
