YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Liz Truss has "basked in victory" but so far revealed nothing on her plans to tackle the cost of living crisis.

Liz Truss has replaced Boris Johnson and is now Prime Minister. She inherits multiple crises including the rising cost of living, rocketing inflation and a buckling NHS. However her victory speech - like her election campaign - revealed few details about how she plans to "deliver, deliver, deliver" on these issues.

New Statesman political correspondent Freddie Hayward was in the room when Liz Truss was announced as the winner of the Conservative leadership election, and here discusses what the new Prime Minister needs to do to succeed in her new role.
