Ms Truss has been holding meetings with her cabinet ministers and backbench MPs as she tries to reassure her party.
Labour's shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves told Bbc Breakfast The " only thing left from The Prime Minister 's plan is higher mortgage rates and higher bonuses for bankers".
She Said The Prime Minister " can put herself and all of us out of this misery by resigning and calling a general election".
Ms Reeves said many people will be " even more worried" after The new chancellor Jeremy Hunt junked almost all of her tax-cutting plans to stabilise market turmoil.

Mr Heappey said The Public " will not indulge The Conservative Party tearing itself apart" with another change of leadership.
" We have seen over The Past two or three weeks what The economic price of political instability has been, " Mr Heappey added.
Speaking to Bbc Breakfast he admitted The mini-budget was " unhelpful".
He Said " dozens" of his Tory MP colleagues are " gravely concerned" but " they Like Me recognise this is not The Time to be changing leader again".
And speaking to Sky News , Mr Heappey also said that " given how skittish our politics are" at The Moment " I don't think there's The opportunity to make any more mistakes".
He Said Ms Truss had " fronted up to her mistake very quickly" but " there are people in The parliamentary party who don't want that to be The End of it".
