Tory MP Charles Walker fires devastating broadside at Conservative Government

Charles Walker branded the Truss Government "an absolute disgrace" and her ministers a group of "talentless people" on Wednesday night.

The Tory MP, 55, said he was "livid" at the state of the Conservative Party and warned that backbenchers were going to lose their seats because of the "utterly appalling" Truss administration.

Mr Walker, who has announced he will step down at the next election, was reacting in the lobby following the fracking vote that saw the Conservatives divided and in chaos.
