Trade minister Penny Mordaunt joins race to become Britain's next prime minister
She launched her campaign on Sunday and will go up against the likes of Jeremy Hunt and Sajid Javid, who both promised to cut tax as they launched their separate bids to become Britain's next Prime Minister.
Rishi Sunak, the former chancellor, is facing backlash for raising taxes and questions have been raised about how out-of-touch the the billionaire is, with the UK experiencing a cost-of-living crisis. He says: "I'm not sure I would have done it if I had been chancellor, but I was focused on my job and I'm not trying to do other people's jobs for them."
"I have not been mobilising a leadership campaign behind his back. I tell you this: for all his flaws - and who is not flawed? - I like Boris Johnson.Ben Wallace rules himself out of Tory contest as Javid 'urged to step aside for Rishi' Setting out his pitch, Mr Zahawi wrote: ""My aim is a simple one: to provide the opportunities that were afforded to my generation, to all Britons, whoever you are and wherever you come from."Thanks to Brexit, we are now a free nation. Let's not just talk about the opportunities that follow, let's take them.""We cannot tax our way into prosperity. We know it is not Labour or the Lib Dems who offer the country solutions.
