Liz Truss reacts to being shortest-serving PM EVER | Exclusive Interview
In this special edition of The Reaction, former prime minister Liz Truss discusses her rapid ascent to power and shock downfall. Liz reveals to Andrew Pierce the dramatic beginning to her premiership, including her historic encounter with the Queen at Balmoral, and the advice she ignored from Her Majesty.
From political plotting to woke institutions, Liz paints a vivid picture of the turmoil of her tenure in Number 10 and admits that her position felt doomed from the start. She denied being embarrassed that she will go down in history as the UK’s shortest-serving PM, holding office for just 49 days before being ousted. Andrew grills her about mistakes she made, her chaotic budget and rumours about her relationship with then Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng.
Despite her brief tenure, Liz reflects on her legacy, and the urgent message in her new book, “Ten Years to Save the West”, urging conservatives worldwide to confront leftwing and woke ideology.

The difference between LT and myself is, that if I had fxcked up on that scale you would never see my face in public again.
She doesn't even have the wherewithal to feel embarrassed!
its like being a liverpool player and scoring three own goals in a champions league final against man united, you wont be drinking and showing your face at Liverpool waterfront bars, well she does
In her own warped world view she is the one who has been wronged. Totally deranged.
thats why you wont ever reach high levels of success in life.
The stupidest prime minister ever!
'I believe in the family' says the woman who started an affair with a fellow MP within minutes of being elected tp Parliament. I wonder if she consulted her young daughters beforehand? What a dreadful woman.
Did she get stuck in to Kwasi's lunch box?😆
Thank goodness this fool was found out so quickly.
Not quick enough to stop her losing £35billion and putting up EVERYONE's mortgage.
Before it was found out that she was a fool, she was appointed prime minister. And what if she had enough time to start a nuclear war with Russia?
Charming
@@TimComleyaccurate.
My pension pot lost £75000 on her disastrous mini budget, I loathed the tories before & she certainly did nothing to change that.The woman is delusiona!
Narcissists never take responsibility and always seek to blame others. It’s pathological to rewrite history like this, and proves that Truss is a deeply unwell and delusional woman.
If she was in charge at my local McDonalds I would be fearful
I'd just go to Burger King for a double whopper with bacon and cheese, large fries and maybe some onion rings.
I'm certainly not anywhere near being a royalist, but I had huge respect for the queen as a figurehead and felt sad when she went. It's so sad that future generations will look back at this passing...and this idiot Truss is in that footage as PM, which is a pity for the queen. Truss is such a failure...and so painfully self-absorbed.
Totally incompetent. Financial speculators could see her gamble with the UK economy was worth betting against and she was told by the IMF NOT to make unfinanced tax cuts but, against all sound advice, she went ahead anyway then blamed it on everyone else when her gamble failed. SHE lost the country £35billion and most deservedly lost her job. Unfortunately millions of homeowners are still paying for her stupidity and will continue to do so for years to come.
I think we know all that
the fact that most tory members take this woman seriously echoes how deranged they have become
Just a skid mark on the pages of history. Tiss off Pruss
Britain is just a stain on the gusset of her career.
So, there we have it ! The longest serving monarch in history choses to die rather than meet Truss a second time !😢😢😢
classic
“The US has more space”. “But the US also has more people!” Tells you pretty much everything about Liz Truss.
THEY CAN ALL PI$$ OFF TO U$A ... I KNOW WHY I WANT HER GONE LOL ...
Wouldn’t give this woman airtime 😡
Give her a break guys, she “didn’t have time to think” and so she didn’t🤣🤣
Who wants to buy a book about her when she was PM!
I do
Would be more like a pamphlet. Maybe a flyer?
@@bigdaveo397 AHAHAH
@@joycegibbs5267 🤣
@@joycegibbs5267suckered lol I expect you don't mind paying her £115.000 per year from your tax vat pot while they gjve you clot shots before you reach pention age ....Well done over lol 😆 😂 🙃 🤣 😅 😌 go buy it lol 😆
I think you have to have some mental problems to be a laughing stock on every side of politics except for a few extremists and feel like you deserve an immediate comeback.
And have a book to shift.
Absolute trainwreck.
Who in their right mind would buy her book
It's almost as if the Conservatives haven't been in power for the last 14 years. How the heck is Tony Blair to blame. The inability to take responsibility makes my blood boil.
he destroyed this country but they carried on with his ruinous policies so I agree in one way.
Atleast Blair ruined his reputation on not his party.
They are all as bad as each other all rotten to the core... Margret Thatcher sold our nuclear power stations to EDF owned by France 🇫🇷 you wonder why your bills are so high our weoponary Arms companies been sold to Israel... we are being fracked cracked inland sold off by LORD DAVID CAMERON SO WHEN HOUSES FALL IN LIKE ISLE OF WHITE ... BP has been SOLD TO INFOSY BUT RUSHI SUNAK GAVE HIS FATHER-IN-LAW THE CONTRACT FOR £1.5BILLION OUR CASH ... NOW ALL GAS IS OWNED BY INDIA ... NO WONDER HE IS RICHER THAN THE KING ... HES EVIL 😈 TONY BLAIRE TOOK UK TO 5 WARS AND KILLED OUR YOUNG MEN WOMEN FOR OIL GAS CONTROL AND KILLED MILLIONS OF OTHERS FOR CONTROL OF MONEY ... WITH BURNING 🔥 BUSHES ... 711 UK 7+1+1=9 🇬🇧U$A 9+1+1=11 TWIN TOWERS TOGETHER 911 EMERGINCY 🔥 🔥 TWIN TOWERS 9+1+1=1+1= 2 TOWERS GONE ... ALL SET UP TO GO INVAIDE A COUNTRY THAT NEVER HAD WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION THATS UK USA SIN IT
Blair is to blame for most of the things wrong with Britain today....especially in Scotland
@@joycegibbs5267Joyce, you seem to think truss was half decent. You do realise she has cost you a fortune
Hed be better off interviewing the lettuce
What you won’t find here is any self-respect, not from Truss, the interviewer or indeed the publisher. Just shamelessness for personal gain.
Calm down
@@TimComley jog on.
One month jobs never look great on the CV
Mad as a box of frogs 🤣
what you?
@@joycegibbs5267 Is that the best you’ve got? 🤣
why would anyone waste 45 minutes listening to this lettuce...
Lizz Truss thinks "WE" !!! Have lost touch😂😂😂
That guy always lookes like a freshly dug up corpse
She's history's greatest monster. Ahead of Thatcher, even
Nothing wrong with Thatcher I have met her when she was alive near number 10 she was in a different class to Truss
@@user-fg5fh9ps5u there is plenty wrong. Her economic incompetence wiped out British manufacturing, spiked inflation and killed growth for over a decade. She hacked away the armed forces to the point had the Falklands happened a year later they couldn't have been defended. She hacked away people's livelihoods and oppotunities to the point she created the underclass of people she claimed to rail against. She made us a bit part player in the world. Had it not been for luck in the Falklands she would have been a lame duck one term PM, and she is only remembered fondly by an older generation because she sold them cheap council houses
It should have been entitled: ''HOW WE MADE YOU POORER IN 14 YEARS'' by LIZ TRUSS
Lucky for her she gets to be interviewed by this kind of softy client so called journalists . Imagine how a James O’brien interview would be!!
Getting a warm feeling, imagining the bosses at the Mail seeing the furious public response to the woman they championed, and are still making excuses for, and attempting to re-insert.
When one considers how she became PM (if being in No10 for 44 days even counts as being PM) and cringe worthy time she spent as an unelected entity, I don`t think she should qualify for any of the generous benefits on offer to all former PMs or the personal protection team that will be guarding her for the rest of her life.
Sunak wasn't elected either😊
Don’t be petty. The total amount of what the taxpayer will spend on her until the end of her life is much less than what any additional day of her staying in office would have cost us.
@@chriswatts1680 None of the string of PMs were after now 'Lord Cameron' left after his epic failure with the Brexit referndum
Truss managing to make the absurd Pierce appear sane...
Oh go away to lettuce 🙄
There is still some sense in the country that saw her as totally out of depth
The lettuce 🥬 is totally unhinged.
Love this version of The Reaction, the Mail should do this more often with Andrew interviewing his guests. Far more entertaining than when he's on with sarah yawn vine.
No shame Can I propose when flights finally leave for Rwanda give her a first class single ticket 😂
it/she should be in a secure facility before it/she can do anymore damage to anything
… and 49 days to crash Britain 😂😂😂
She is absolutely right in all she says. Outstanding interview !!
It's going to be very difficult when Spitting Image want to make a puppet of her....as she looks like one already.
Imagine being the husband of Liz Truss.
16:30 We have NOT forgiven you for the level of DAMAGE YOU did to this Country!
Peter Principle personified.
What planet are these two from?
This is a pure cringefest
I hate this rag
Pumped by Kwasi's BBC, after he finished with Amber Crudd
She was the Prime Minister and that could never be taken away from her
This twerp "guarantees" it will be a best seller....
An accurate book title. Visionary.

This woman has no shame, the fact she even dares to show her face after his disaster in office, never mind the audacity to blame everything but herself - either deluded or desperately scrambling for a way back
The journalist should change his socks.
Donkey
Wonder if she's got the bottle to go on question time
The only thing i can applaud her for is how brave she is to even stay in public after all she has done
Complains about the PM office being “cheapskate” when she is now entitled to £115,000 of taxpayers money a year for the rest of her life after doing just 49 days of (catastrophic) work as PM 🙄
The idea of Truss's policies were actually in the right direction but unfortunately it was too drastic too soon and the Bank of England who had been pumping money in the system for years and keeping interest rates low, didn't take kindly to it, as well as the bond market who didn't see any growth in the future.
Unfunded handouts, to people who send the money out of the country to tax havens, are always 'too much, too soon'. For some strange reason, fully-costed budgets, to invest in UK infrastructure, and people who would circulate their money within their community, seem to be constantly ridiculed by the tax avoiding owners of this channel and their employees.
I agree, her policies were ok, and it makes me wonder who runs the country, the bank? Or the government, the answer is potentially scary :0
Be a free market fundamentalist, but make a plan so poorly thought out (she admitted she completely failed to understand how intertwined are the bond markets to pension funds) that the markets hate it and tank the economy. She was an inept failure and a only a fool or a wealthy ideologue could fail to see that.
Yes well... You should never send a Man to do a Woman's job.
she was mentally alert..unlike me..
She was useless 😂😂😂
A nodding dog.
Watch how much prisde in her Eyes if I been Prime Minister of British enjoy as Prime Minister what I do of gone Ecomomy too mucg down
Why is she given airtime
Truss’ ideas aren’t wrong (similar to Thatcher - low taxes, small govt) but Truss is underwhelming milk toast.
She wanted to drive the economy with lowering taxes. With lower taxes, people have an incetive to work harder. They ousted her because they wanted to keep taxes high, because the establishment has debt up to their eyeballs, and had to get the people to keep servicing the interest on the debt they deliberately printed.
Cutting taxes for the already rich DOES not drive growth. Only a troll, tory or idiot thinks it does...
@@graemelake657 Cutting taxes for the not already richdoes drive growth (Laffer curve).
@@graemelake657 I point to you Hong Kong and Singapore. They grew their economy from manufacturing bases to financial power houses. Low taxes DOES drive economies. With lower taxes more businesses invest.
Exactly!! People literally slate her, but don't look at who got rid of her :0 shows the government don't run the country :0 and that makes our elections irrelevant 😢
@@unvaccinatedAndPureBloodcompletely different economies to the UK. The rich in the UK off shore their wealth. They do not reinvest - trickle down - at all. Biggest myth ever
Deluded
Taxi for Truss!
But don't leave us to pick up the tab
Freemasons ---A truss is a web-like roof design of wood or steel that uses tension and compression to create strong, light components that can span a long distance.
Isn't it something used for a hernia?
This is interesting 😊😊
I see most of the comments here are negative, but she talks a lot of sense to me.
I can only hope that gives you pause to self reflect, I understand it's difficulties in relying on others opinions to form your own but the overwhelming direction of thought on Truss's positions might indicate something.
I agree John if she wasn't shafted by her own party & the BofE we might be singing a different tune now
there isn't a lot of sense in this country anymore tragically. That's why we are where we are !
@@blehblehorama wow, this attitude explains a lot !
It's because you're an average person who watches KZhead. And the average KZhead viewer is not very bright.
She doesn't seem to realise the word Thatcher is an expletive.
in your world maybe.
Why is Andrew Pierce so irritating?
Liz is brave to bring out the reform at that very moment. ❤ It was not easy
Tories has no balls. They wouldn't wait and see her plan work. 2 month is no time.
50 billion off our economy in her first few weeks - there would have been no country left if we'd left this lunatic in charge a moment longer. Plan? Are you trolling? Was the plan parity with the USD or below it? 🙄 Her 'plan' was unfunded everything because... you know... magic growth money tree will cover it
So you'd wait until our mortgages go up even more until we are all homeless?
the Tories are no longer Conservatice, they're liberals and had to get rid of her. They despise real Tories. They're snobs.
@@davecross4493 market reacting hysterical in start is not new....
Imagine what the Mail would have said if it had been Starmer who'd crashed the economy
She should be in prison for life for destroying the economy..
Shameless. Thoughts and prayers for Mary Liz Truss. It must be hard to be outlived by a salat
😂 Didnt she drop pound price to 1.05 against dollar? Is she's that deluded!😂😂
at least you tried
⛔ She says she believes in family yet she is the one who had sexual affair at every office she found herself in. I feel sorry for her husband.
