Britain's Transport Secretary Grant Saps will be a candidate to succeed Prime Minister Boris Johnson, he told the Sunday Times, entering the succession race along with several other contenders.
Grant has ruled out holding a national election, but if he wins he will issue an emergency budget within the first 100 days to cut taxes for the most vulnerable and provide state support for companies with high energy consumption, the Sunday Times said in an article published on the newspaper's website today.
"Not chasing the next headline"
"(...) We need to be a strategic government, sober in its analysis and not chasing the next headline," Saps told the paper.
The Sunday Times reported that Shaps' aim was to tackle the cost of living crisis and rebuild the British economy to be the largest in Europe by 2050.
