troubled leadership
Liz Truss apologized for “mistakes” in her program that caused investor confidence to evaporate and her poll ratings to plummet, but said on Monday that she would not resign.
“I want to accept responsibility and apologize for the mistakes made,” Truss told the BBC.
“I wanted to take action, help people with their energy bills deal with the high tax issue, but we went too far and too fast.”
Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt, who was appointed on Friday after Truss fired his close ally Kwasi Kwarteng, scrapped the remaining main thrusts of his agenda on Monday, including scaling back his vast energy support scheme. .
Asked if she was now prime minister in name only, Truss said she appointed Hunt because she knew she needed to change direction.
“It would have been completely irresponsible of me not to act in the national interest the way I did,” she said. “It was right to have changed the policy.”
Truss, who became leader less than six weeks ago, said he would lead his Conservative Party in the next election.
“I’m sticking around because I was elected to work for this country,” she said. “And that’s what I’m determined to do.”
