let's talk to our political correspondent tony bonsignore.eymoon period for liz truss. barely a month since she became prime minister, and separate articles but coordinated clearly, an attempt to try to change the conversation, especially after that very fractious conservative party conference last week. so the message is, growth is the right plan, they are saying. liz truss is the right person to deliver it. she is strong, prepared to be unpopular, but she is also listening, a reference to the u—turn on the 45% tax rate. and also, and i think the key to this is, if the party doesn't rally round, they say, then it will be a labour government, and they are throwing in this warning that they have done before, which is it will be backed up by the snp as well, which will threaten the union. but the problems are mounting for liz truss. her party is split in really important ways. they will be going back to westminster this week, there is question marks whether she will be able to get some of these unpopular measures through parliament. and all sor

tony bonsignore, bbc news. now on bbc news, it's time for a special programme...lobal questions: the taiwan, china conflict. hello, welcome to global questions with me, zeinab badawi, from liberty square in taipei, the capital city of taiwan. the main island of taiwan lies about 160 kilometres across the waters from china. in the past few months, china has stepped up its military exercises, and fired missiles over taiwan, in growing tensions with the government here. the chinese president, xijinping, has reiterated the claim that taiwan belongs to china, and he says he does not rule out the use of force to take it over. meanwhile, the united states, which supports taiwan, has hardened its position with president biden saying he would send american troops to defend it. so, if china did invade taiwan, it would be a conflict with huge global dimensions, one that involves the two superpowers, the united states and china. that is global questions, taiwan, a flashpoint with china and the world? applause welcome to the taipei new horizon building. this is a lively and bu
