The former Prime Minister, who crashed the economy in her 49-day stint in No10, insisted growth was a ‘long game’ as she introduced a new research institute to enact her vision
Shamed Liz Truss hid in the audience at the launch of her new Growth Commission today.
The former Prime Minister, who crashed the economy in her 49-day stint in No10, insisted growth was a “long game” as she introduced a new research institute to enact her vision.
But she was keen not to take centre stage at its launch, despite having “convened” the commission, instead hiding in the second row of the audience to dodge scrutiny.
Ms Truss was briefly cornered by journalists after the speech about whether the launch of the commission proves her approach was correct, to which she replied “it’s a long game”, before scurrying away.
