I think it's more of a disgruntled Tory who knows their party is in the last chance saloon and looking at least a decade in the wilderness. All they have is to attack the opposition and their presumed supporters, just the Government.
Lashing out because the Tories are their football team.

General election needed now
About half of the required number to force a vote of no confidence. Nothing to see here… yet.

If they did change leader, most would say there is no way the Tories can hang on. But they would...
F***ing hell.

Cap on bankers' bonuses to be scrapped
The plan is part of a post-Brexit shake-up of City rules, the regulators have confirmed.

It's actually the FCA that has lifted the cap on bankers' bonuses, although the government have been trying to force the issue for a while. Lots of stories of real-term pay rises (ie pay above inflation). It's worth flagging up that this has been driven by pay in finance. The public sector, meanwhile, continues to be subjected to real-term pay cuts, as it has for, oh, about 13 years.
My understanding is that it was a Liz Truss policy and Sunak has decided not to scrap it.
Although the FCA facilitates the logistics of lifting the cap, the decision is made by the government.

Yes, I think you're right on this (and I'm wrong) based on the 14.27 entry in The Guardian in this:
UK decision to scrap caps on bankers’ bonuses condemned as ‘obscene decision’ by union – business live
The number of unemployed grew by 82,000 in the three months to August

Another Brexit benefit making headlines today: dodgy eggs from poorly looked after poultry

A recent report showed that a large salmonella outbreak earlier this year was linked to Polish eggs. Concern has also been raised that post-Brexit trade deals could lead to a further decline in quality as low-welfare eggs from caged hens enter the UK.
