Rishi Sunak’s appointment as Prime Minister has left some Tory MPs with “bruised feelings” a former minister has said.
Former justice minister, Victoria Atkins, who backed Mr Sunak in the leadership race, told Sky News: “It’s been a very tough six weeks for us as a party, of course the country would be saying it’s been a very tough six weeks for us as well, which is why I think of course there will be some bruised feelings among some people.
“But actually what we saw yesterday was the overwhelming majority of people coming together, understanding that we now have to focus on tackling inflation, we have to stabilise the markets, we have to try to help the Bank of England with the difficult decisions they have coming ahead of them with interest rates and so on, we have to do everything we can do stabilise the economy.
“Because if we can do that then we can start to deliver the vision that Rishi set out over the summer that we will all look forward to supporting when there’s a general election.”
