UK Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has ditched almost all of Prime Minister Liz Truss' tax cuts announced in the British government's mini-budget three weeks ago.
He announced the basic rate of income tax would remain at 20 percent indefinitely - instead of being cut - to ensure economic stability for the country.
Truss has not spoken in the Commons today leaving her Ministers and the Leader of the House to respond to a withering attack from Labour.
Some Tory MPs are saying the embattled PM's days in office are numbered.
BBC political correspondent Rob Watson spoke to Guyon Espiner.
