Lets Get Real:
Thus the Liz Truss ERA starts, the reports from the news channels is that PM Liz Truss will go big on the cost of living crisis, gas prices will be frozen, this will cost the Country between one hundred billion and one hundred and thirty billion. Also let's recall the PM stated that she would CUT TAXES, one is sure there will be other sweets for the PM to give out. One can expect a emergency Budget within a few days, even if it is not called that. Also the Russians might try something in the Ukraine, to see how much attention the new PM gives to it. The Northern Ireland Protocol Bill is going through the House of Lords, that could cause problems. The PM has a full tray of problems, the worse crisis since 1979, Truss has a few weeks to short them out. The next few hours we expect a speech from the new PM at 10 Downing Street, also the new Cabinet will be rolled out, the lower levels might take a few days. Thus a interesting week ahead.
