Team Truss blasts Rishi Sunak’s £450 Prada shoes while Liz wears £4.50 earrings as rival PM hopefuls hit campaign trail
TEAM Truss declared class war on Rishi Sunak yesterday.
Minister Nadine Dorries tweeted that Liz campaigned in £4.50 Claire’s Accessories earrings while Rishi wore Prada shoes worth £450 and a “£3,500 bespoke suit”.
But another ally of Ms Truss blasted Ms Dorries’ “stupidity”, adding: “She is f*****g nuts.”
Mr Sunak’s supporters attacked his rival’s boasts of going to a struggling comprehensive in Leeds, claiming it “rewrote history” as it is a very good school.
But Ms Truss’s backers insisted: “She will take no lectures from an LA-based, Goldman Sachs banker who went to a school for the uber-elite.”

The two Tories went to war on the economy in a televised BBC debate.
The ex-Chancellor said her “sugar rush” plans for £34billion of tax cuts would backfire by pushing up mortgage rates by as much as seven per cent.
This would slap thousands of pounds on to families’ bills, plunge millions into “misery” and cause the Tories to lose the next election, Mr Sunak warned.
But hitting back at her rival, Ms Truss accused him of peddling “Project Fear”.
