Truss now likely to become prime minister without undergoing a single sit-down grilling on TV
Liz Truss has pulled out of Tuesday’s planned interview with the BBC, the corporation has said, meaning she is likely to become prime minister without undergoing a single sit-down quizzing.
Earlier this month the foreign secretary agreed to the primetime interview with the veteran political journalist Nick Robinson, something already done by Rishi Sunak, her rival to succeed Boris Johnson as Conservative party leader.
