"We face very, very serious challenges, which will take immediate action from the Government."

Pressed on what action she will take, Ms Truss said she would act within one week.

She said: "If I'm elected as prime minister, within one week I will make sure there is an announcement on how we are going to deal with the issue of energy bills and of long-term supply to put this country on the right footing for winter.
