Personally I'm not sure what the issue is with sacking Kwarteng, blaming him
Because Truss has bought into the shitshow fully. By some accounts, Kwarteng wanted a partial u-turn and Truss refused, which would obviously be made very public if she sacked him. She would be (even more) fatally damaged by it.
Going completely invisible isn't really helping her cause. Will be interesting to see how the inevitable doubling down will go down during the Tory conference - she's not exactly a rousing speaker at the best of times. Will probably be a car crash.

It's also the fact that Sunak basically said this would happen that makes them look doubley incompetent.
Personally I'm not sure what the issue is with sacking Kwarteng, blaming him and getting the new Chancellor to make the u-turn. Hasn't Truss been in hiding anyway?
Or maybe it's because they can't find anyone to do the job.
