British Prime Minister Liz Truss later admitted in an interview with the BBC that her cabinet mishandled the announcement of her new tax cut programme, sparking one of the toughest weeks for UK markets in recent months. “I recognize that we should have laid the foundation for our plan better. We have learned from those mistakes and I think there is still time to correct course,” said Truss. However, the prime minister stood firm on his proposals. “I think we made the right decision to deal with the exceptional circumstances we are facing.” “We have a clear plan being developed to respond to both the energy crisis and inflation, but also aim to resume economic growth and lay a long-term foundation,” Liz Truss added in the interview. The BBC reminds that the opposition, as well as many Tory MPs and the majority of British public opinion, are opposed to tax cuts for the rich under the plan unveiled 10 days ago by Chancellor of the Exchequer Kwasi Kwarteng which caused a tremor in the markets .

Royal families, the news: from Elizabeth’s funeral to William and Kate
One of the most intense historical moments for the Crowned Heads of Europe, who met in London Heads of State from all over the world, ends with the State Funeral of Elizabeth II. After the solemn celebrations, everyone returned to their duties with a view to the renewed and changing United kingdom
On September 19, the world stopped to accompany Elizabeth II on her final journey. The state funeral, austere and imposing, brought the new sovereign, Charles III, under the eyes of all who, after intense days in the kingdom, produced moments of emotion
Among the most watched is Catherine Middleton, the new Princess of Wales, who was vigilant during the funeral service, along with her two eldest children, George and Charlotte, who softened the world with their serenity
The presence of the world’s most prominent women was also the subject of debate by fashion commentators, who assessed the appearance of the funeral attendees and judged it more or less appropriate to the formality of the event. Not a few notes for Meghan Markle who, with her hooded sleeve Stella McCartney dress, left part of her arms uncovered, visible despite the long gloves, an option strongly discouraged on these occasions
