Speaking to Sky News’ Beth Rigby about the Prime Minister, Mr Hunt urged Tory MPs to “give her a chance” and also ruled out his desire for the top job.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister is facing a widespread backlash from MPs who are appalled by her performance over the past five weeks, notably her decision to avoid Labour’s urgent questioning in the House of Commons on Monday.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister U-turned on the majority of the mini-budget and Labour subsequently tabled an Urgent Question which was addressed by Penny Mordaunt who insisted that “the Prime Minister is not under a desk”.<\/p>\n

Ms Mordaunt added, “I don’t think there has been a coup” which failed to allay the sense to instability in the Prime Minister’s actions.<\/p>\n

The Chancellor was asked “what is the point of Liz Truss” after he has scrapped the majority of the policies which brought her into power.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hunt replied: “She’s Prime Minister, she has got important decisions to make.<\/p>\n

“People who want her to go need to ask themselves whether more political instability is going to help keep mortgage rates down, keep interest rates down, calm the markets.”<\/p>\n

He added: “I don’t think political instability is the answer. She’s been Prime Minister for about five weeks, and we need to give her a chance.”<\/p>\n

Though the Chancellor has now been seen as the most powerful member of Government at the minute, he ruled out taking the top job.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He said: “I rule it out, Mrs Hunt rules it out, three Hunt children rule it out.”<\/p>\n

Following the fifth Conservative MP, Sir Charles Walker, to call for the Prime Minister to resign, Hunt stated his belief of why she deserves to stay.<\/p>\n

Mr Walker told Sky News that Truss’ position as PM “is untenable” and “she has put colleagues, the country, through a huge amount of unnecessary pain and upset and worry”.<\/p>\n

He added that the issue “can only be remedied…with a new Prime Minister”.<\/p>\n

Mr Hunt insisted: “I would rather a leader who listens, learns and changes and I think we would have more instability, much more instability, if we were to have a leadership process.”<\/p>\n

Ms Rigby concluded her interview with Mr Hunt asking, “will she be PM by Christmas?” to which he replied: “I believe so yes”.<\/p>\n
