The host of the televised Conservative Party leadership debate has dramatically collapsed during a broadcast on prime time TV.

We apologise to our viewers and listeners.” Ms Truss wrote, “Relieved to hear [Kate McCann] is fine. Ms Truss accused Mr Sunak of waging “Project Fear’’ and “scaremongering” by rubbishing her blueprint to turbocharge the economy. Really sorry that such a good debate had to end. He told The Sun: “I will be supporting the person who I believe can be trusted to invest in defence and make us safer from the threats that I think have grown in the last 12 months.” In a brutal swipe Mr Sunak shot back: “I remember the referendum campaign and there was only one of us who was on the side of Remainer Project Fear - and it was you not me.” Mr Sunak rejected “arbitrary targets” but pledged to do what is needed to keep the country safe. He said: “It’s important what we leave our kids and our grandkids, and I think it is important to think about that inheritance, and I don’t want to pass them a bill.” Ahead of the debate, the Foreign Sec savaged Mr Sunak’s plan as a “disaster” for the UK. “And I believe that Sun readers want us to keep to our manifesto commitment of not raising taxes.” During a fiery 30-minute debate before the incident, Foreign Secretary Ms Truss had promised to “relieve the burden” of citizens with a tax cuts bonanza. Mr Sunak hit back that her tax-cutting spree would only fuel inflation further, and said it was “immoral” to saddle our kids with future debt.

And while Ms Truss said she would give local leaders more power, Mr Hughes said the Conservatives had "had the chance already, and its still not enough for the NHS". After Mr Sunak said he was glad he was getting "the support that you need," Mr Hughes replied: "I'm not getting that, Mr Sunak." But Mr Sunak responded that the NI hike had been a "brave decision" to raise money for the NHS, and it was "entirely reasonable" to ask bigger companies to pay more to repair the public finances in the wake of the Covid pandemic. A lot more of the policy, and less of the personal. In a pointed rejoinder, he said: "What's morally wrong is asking our children and grandchildren to pick up the tab for the bills that we are not prepared to meet." TalkTV said McCann was "fine" but the channel had been given medical advice not to continue.
