Taking aim at both Labour and Reform UK, the Tory frontbencher will accuse Chancellor Rachel Reeves of 'fiddling the figures' by altering her definition of national financial obligation, and caution that 'populism is not the response'.
Ahead of the Chancellor's spending evaluation next week, her opposite number will accuse her of 'abandoning' monetary responsibility.
Last night she, in a furious response, she implicated Mr Stride of having 'kowtowed to the stopped working Treasury orthodoxy' and being 'set on undermining my prepare for growth'.
Mel Stride will utilize a speech today to state a 'vibrant rewiring' of the economy is required as part of Tory efforts to 'gain back trust' following the fallout from the 2022 mini-budget.
He will also fire a broadside at Nigel Farage, stating his support for measures such as lifting the two-child benefit cap 'doubles down on the" magic money tree" we thought had been banished with Jeremy Corbyn'.
His expected remarks about Ms Truss provoked a furious response from the 49-day PM before he had even provided his speech.
Addressing the tradition of the 2022 mini-budget under Ms Truss's premiership, which alarmed the financial markets and resulted in a spike in mortgage rates, Mr Stride will say: 'For a couple of weeks, we put at threat the very stability which Conservatives had actually always said should be carefully safeguarded.
'The credibility of the UK's financial framework was undermined by spending billions on subsidising energy bills and tax cuts, without any appropriate prepare for how this would be paid for.'
The shadow chancellor will declare that the Tories acted quickly to restore stability, however the celebration's trustworthiness would take longer to recover.

'That will take time, and it also requires contrition,' he is anticipated to state. 'So let me be clear: never again will the Conservative Party weaken financial trustworthiness by making promises we can not manage.'
Ms Reeves has 2 self-imposed 'financial rules' - funding daily spending through taxation and for financial obligation, measured by the criteria of 'public sector net financial liabilities' (PSNFL), to be falling as a share of GDP.
She has insisted these restrictions are 'non-negotiable' in the middle of wrangles with Cabinet coworkers over department budget plans ahead of next week's statement.
Mr Stride will state: 'At the costs evaluation next week, we can expect her to trumpet all of the additional projects and programs she is moneying - without discussing the truth it is all being spent for from loaning.'
Attacking Nigel Farage's after its gains in the regional elections last month, the shadow chancellor will state: 'Take Reform. Their financial prescription is pure populism. It doubles down on the 'magic money tree' we believed had actually been eliminated with Jeremy Corbyn.'
During the speech in main London, he will state the two 'core priorities' for the party will be 'stability and financial obligation', with control of spending and reform of well-being and public services.
He will add: 'And a bold rewiring of the British economy - to unleash development, efficiency, and chance throughout the country.'
Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has stated that the return she anticipates for the party will take time as it seeks to avoid 'rushing' into policy commitments.
Mr Stride will firmly insist contemporary politics needs more 'consideration', with the Conservatives planning to spend the next four years creating a 'reputable' strategy to go back to government.
'We will require to take our time if we are to create a credible plan that provides for the people of our nation,' he will say.
'Over the next 4 years, our party will do just that.'
Since being ejected from Number 10 after just 49 days in workplace, Ms Truss has actually yielded her strategy to rapidly abolish the 45p top rate of tax went too far, but otherwise safeguarded her stopped working quote to enhance growth.
Reacting to the Tory announcement on Thursday, she said: 'Mel Stride was one of the Conservative MPs who kowtowed to the stopped working Treasury orthodoxy and was set on weakening my Prepare for Growth from the moment I beat his chosen candidate for the celebration management.
'Even when evaluated by the OBR's problematic estimations, my strategies were chalked up as costing less than the spending spree Rishi Sunak pursued as Chancellor throughout the pandemic - yet Mel Stride never took him to job over any of that.
'And why has he singularly failed to analyze the role played by the Bank of England in causing the LDI crisis that sent gilt rates spiralling? Why has he never asked the important questions of the Governor, despite the Bank since confessing that two-thirds of the gilt spike was down to them?
'My strategy to turbocharge the economy and get Britain growing again offered the only path for the Conservatives to avoid a devastating defeat at the election.'
She added: 'Until Mel Stride confesses the financial failings of the last Conservative Government, the British public will not rely on the celebration with the reins of power again.'
Reform's deputy leader Richard Tice stated: 'We'll take no lectures on economics from a party that more than doubled the nationwide debt, raised taxes and government costs to 70-year highs and shrank financial growth to 70-year lows.
'Meanwhile, we discover Tory-run councils wasting ₤ 30 million on a bridge to no place. They can never be relied on again.'
The Liberal Democrats accused the Conservatives of assaulting Mr Farage's celebration for 'the same dream economics' they had pursued 'while secretly outlining a pact with them' as they branded the speech 'ridiculous'.
Deputy leader Daisy Cooper MP stated: 'It's insulting that the Conservatives believe a couple of warm words will fool people into forgiving them for all the damage they did to the economy and people's incomes.
'Families are still reeling from the Conservatives' lockdown law-breaking and still paying the cost after their mini budget plan sent out mortgages spiralling.
'Now the Conservatives have the cheek to criticise Reform UK for the exact same fantasy economics while covertly outlining a pact with them: it's ridiculous.'
