Writing in the Sunday Telegraph newspaper on the eve of the announcement on who will replace Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Truss repeated her pledge to be bold in, which is struggling with double-digit inflation and is facing recession.
"If elected, I plan within the first week of my new administration to set out our immediate action on energy bills and energy supply," she wrote. She said her approach would be two-fold - immediate action to tackle the cost of living crisis and a plan to deliver economic growth. She would also appoint a council of economic advisers to get"the best ideas" on how to boost the economy.
