Britain is in the throes of its worst cost of living crisis in over 60 years.

Workers desperately need a raise so they can pay their bills, cover their rent, and put food on the table.

You would have thought that helping people through these difficult times would be the government's priority.

But when it comes to providing support, it's not the nurses or carers who worry Liz Truss. They are bankers.

His Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng is drawing up plans to lift the cap on their bonuses.

The group Mr. Kwarteng has decided to demand special treatment is the City fat cats.

The Tories say the bonus cap prevents the UK financial sector from competing with the US and Asia.

If this were the case, banks would not be reporting record profits and bonuses in the financial sector would not be at an all-time high.

By being the cheerleaders for corporate greed, Ms. Truss and co showed their true colors.

Over the past seven days, the thoughts of the nation have been with the royal family.
