Our friends in UK, don't these tax cuts have to be voted on and passed by a majority of parliament in which case how could they possibly get enough votes??

The Tories have a majority of about 80. You would need a very large rebellion to defeat the measure.

It is in fact likely that there will be a rebellion, but hard to imagine it being big enough to defeat it as, being a signature policy of Truss, that would amount to a vote of no confidence and could bring her government down. Her own party won't do that.

The Tories have a large Parliamentary majority and Parliament is currently in recess.

We are a failed state.

Puppet masters? That sounds like one of these George Soros type a conspiracy theories. :D Or do you just mean these mad think tanks in Tufton St.?
Look up ERG and Steve Baker in particular, they are now running the Tories (Previously it was UKIP)
