PM Liz Truss New UK promises ‘bold action’ to grow the economy

PM Liz Truss says after beating Sunak to lead the governing Conservative Party “I will deliver a bold plan to cut taxes and grow our economy. I will deliver on the energy crisis, dealing with people’s energy bills, but also dealing with the long term issues we have on energy supply,”

PM Liz Truss participated in protests against Margaret Thatcher when she was a young girl. She grew to respect Britain’s first female leader as an adult. Currently, the 47-year-old foreign secretary has a chance to become the third female prime minister of Britain.

PM Liz Truss, who won the election to become the next prime minister of the UK on September 5 against Rishi Sunak, faces a challenging assignment as the nation struggles with high inflation and prepares for a harsh, long winter with rising energy prices.

“My friends, we need to show that we will deliver over the next two years,” In her victory speech after defeating the former chancellor of the exchequer Sunak to lead the ruling Conservative Party, PM Liz Truss, who will be chosen prime minister on September 6, remarked.

In contrast to Sounak’s 60,399 votes, PM Liz Truss received 81,326 votes.”I will deliver a bold plan to cut taxes and grow our economy. I will deliver on the energy crisis, dealing with people’s energy bills, but also dealing with the long term issues we have on energy supply.”

The nation is currently experiencing a crisis with the cost of living, industrial discontent, and a recession. Opposition MPs claim that Truss’ lengthy, expensive, and challenging to-do list is the product of 12 years of ineffective Conservative rule. Many have demanded an early election, which PM Liz Truss has stated she will not support.

“I also want to thank our outgoing leader, my friend, Boris Johnson. Boris, you got Brexit done. You crushed Jeremy Corbyn. You rolled out the vaccine and you stood up to Vladimir Putin. You are admired from Kyiv to Carlisle.

We will deliver a great victory for the Conservative Party in 2024,” In her first speech following the elections, PM Liz Truss remarked. The 2024 presidential election was being discussed by the Johnson supporter.
