The spokesperson responded: “I’m not going to name individuals.” The PM’s spokesperson was also asked if healthy eating campaigner Jamie Oliver had been identified as a coalition member, after Truss said during her speech that “I’m not interested in how many two-for-one offers you buy at the supermarket”. ![]() The Guardian’s John Crace quipped that Truss had “declared war” on taxi passengers. Speculation is rife about who else might be part of the coalition, with wags on Twitter suggesting bats and David Attenborough as possible candidates. “This new ‘coalition’ includes a range of individuals you’d expect Ms Truss to be fairly cheesed off with at the moment,” said Indy100.īut along with Labour, the Lib Dems and the like, the coalition membership is “mainly the Conservative Party’s voting base”, according to Capx. Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon tweeted that “ranting about an imaginary ‘anti growth coalition’ is just an attempt to obscure the hard reality that the biggest brake on UK growth is Brexit – and that’s on the Tories”. The CPRE countryside charity said the PM’s “disingenuous and misleading” words presented a “false choice between the economy and the environment”.

The PM “will hope she can, again as with Brexit, enlist some culture war energy into what risks otherwise being a somewhat dry economic debate” that is causing divisions within her party in the wake of Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng’s mini budget, added Walker. None of the “villains she listed” are “more staunchly opposed to the sort of policies that would deliver transformative growth than the alliance of older voters and southern homeowners that form the core of the Tory coalition”, he added.
