UK leader Liz Truss goes from triumph to trouble in 6 weeks

Published:

In just six weeks, the prime minister´s libertarian economic policies have triggered a financial crisis, emergency central bank intervention, multiple U-turns and the firing of her Treasury chief.
 
"Many of us, wrongly, expected her to pivot after she won the leadership contest in the way many presidents do after winning the primaries," said Tim Bale, Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London. "But she didn´t do that. She actually meant what she said." Daily Mail, Independent, BBC Radio 5 Live

Professor Bale also appeared on BBC Radio 4, BBC News, BBC World Service, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 6, LBC, ABC News and Times Radio.
