The former cabinet minister, who was sacked by Boris Johnson after telling the prime minister he should resign last month, said tax cuts were not the answer to the cost of living crisis. Politics Hub: Sunak and Truss disagree on how to handle Putin In an unequivocal reference to Mrs Truss’s proposals, he wrote in The Times: “I am deeply concerned that the context of the leadership debate by many has been a holiday from reality. “The answer to the cost of living crisis cannot simply be to drop further ‘handouts’ and cut taxes.” Mr Gove also indicated he would not return to the political front line, whoever becomes the next prime minister. “I don’t expect to be in government again.

The Sunak campaign welcomed his endorsement, with a spokeswoman saying: “I am delighted to have the support of a party and cabinet veteran who carries intellectual weight and has shown the radical reforming zeal in every job he has held that we now so desperately need.” .
