Don’t forget the clear role the so-called independent Back of England played in all this as well. You don’t need to be a tin foil hat wearing swivel-eyed loon to see close links between those prize shamen of our time ‘economists’ trying desperately (and routinely failing) to read the goat entrails, unelected suits such as the IMF and the Bank of England, and the soaking wet side of the Conservative Party to take a view that they didn’t like what they saw and determined to do something about it.

And they succeeded.

Would Truss’ policies have made that much difference? Perhaps not. There is generally relatively little Governments can do about the economic situation other than choosing whether to spend more or less money, much of it borrowed. But that didn’t make it right that unelected people made the choices they did, for choices they were.
