SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn has called for Rishi Sunak to apologise for the "damage" that Liz Truss caused during her time as Prime Minister.Flynn asked Sunak during Prime Minister's Questions if he "regretted" Truss' time in office and if he would "apologise for the damage that she has caused".Sunak refused to apologise and said that he was "grateful" for her "contribution to public life".The exchange came days after Truss said that she did not regret her time in office.After most of Keir Starmer's questions had focused on Volodymyr Zelenky's parliamentary visit, Flynn asked Sunak: "In recent days, the former Prime Minister said that she did not regret her time in office.
Does the Prime Minister regret her time in office?"MPs on both sides of the chamber laughed and Sunak replied: "I am grateful to all my predecessors for the contribution that they make to public life."Flynn was not satisfied and persisted.
He said: "Hold on a minute; let us reflect on the damage that was caused: £30 billion wiped off the UK economy, pension funds brought to the brink of collapse, the pound reaching parity with the dollar and interest rates for mortgage holders right across these isles soaring."The former Prime Minister will not apologise for the damage that she has caused, so on behalf of the Tory party, will the right honourable gentleman apologise for her?"Sunak replied: "On the first day that I took office, I said that mistakes had been made, but what we have done is to ensure that right now the pound is at a multi-month high, borrowing costs are restored back to where they should be, the economy has stabilised and there is a clear plan to halve inflation and grow the economy.
