Liz Truss on Trump, Brexit and … fleas? 9 things we learned reading her new book – POLITICO

The former prime minister is using her book to denounce British institutions, including the Treasury, the Bank of England and the Office for Budget Responsibility, for a “sustained whispering campaign” against her policies. She accuses them of all having “the same mindset” on big issues like the EU, China and immigration.

In media interviews To promote the book, Truss went further, saying Bank of England chief Andrew Bailey should resign and calling for a “proper investigation” into how his policy plans were sabotaged.

Although the acceptance of communications around the ill-fated budget “wasn’t as good as it could have been,” Truss says the establishment put her “at gunpoint” by declaring a “market collapse” unless she abandons her entire political program. And she colorfully compares her plight to a “game of Tetris where you start to lose control and the pieces get closer and closer to the top.”

The media are also victims of good collage: they were, she laments, too “hungry for political drama”. Sorry about that!

But she is a big fan of Donald Trump.

Truss has previously used the book promotion circuit to solidify his support for Donald Trump. Speaking to LBC, Truss said “it had to be” Trump in the White House and told the Spectator that “the world was safer” when the Republican was in power.

Truss also criticized outgoing President Joe Biden, criticizing the US president’s opposition to the mini-tax cut budget and saying she was “surprised that Biden would break protocol by commenting on UK domestic politics”.
