Liz Truss Resigns As UK Prime Minister, Full Statement

I came into office at a time of great economic and international instability. Families and businesses were worried about how to pay their bills. Putin’s illegal war in Ukraine threatens the security of our whole continent. And our country has been held back for too long by low economic growth.

And we set out a vision for a low tax high growth economy that would take advantage of the freedoms of Brexit.
