Liz Truss is back and she knows who is at fault for her disastrous 49-day tenure as prime minister: a “blob of vested interests” opposed to her vision of a low-tax economy.

In this week’s episode of The i Podcast, deputy political editor, Arj Singh, joins host Molly Blackall to lift the lid on her explosive intervention that has reignited the Tory party’s love affair with cutting taxes – and split the party once again.

While many thought these libertarian ideals went the same way as Truss’s doomed premiership, some in her party are unperturbed by the financial crisis they caused and want to try it all over again.

Later, we are joined by i‘s chief features writer, Kasia Delgado, who has been looking at cases of people faking their own deaths and the pitfalls of doing so in the modern age.

Faking your own death – or pseudocide – is attempted by hundreds of people every year. We take a look at this shadowy world and find out just how easy it is to disappear.
