Daily Mirror – Same old Tories
The Daily Mirror gives its take on the new prime minister, Liz Truss.
New Prime Minister, same old Tory disinterest and callous lack of concern, as Boris Johnson’s likely successor shows when she taunts people worried that their energy bills are going through the roof.
Haughty Liz Truss lecturing householders and small businesses to wait another week is the arrogance of a Tory divorced from reality.
If she already has an ambitious plan, share it now. If she hasn’t, shame on her for dithering where urgent, decisive action is demanded.
The clear favourite to be announced as Boris Johnson’s successor in No10 without a general election was unimpressive on TV yesterday, fuelling fears she is not up to a demanding job.
Labour and other parties threw down the gauntlet by promising to freeze electricity and gas prices. Truss – or Rishi Sunak – will be eternally damned if they fail to match the offer.
