Boris Johnson Arrives at Queen's Estate to Offer Resignation
Truss, 47, took office a day after the ruling Conservative Party chose her as its leader in an election where the party’s 172,000 dues-paying members were the only voters. As party leader, Truss automatically became prime minister without the need for a general election because the Conservatives still have a majority in the House of Commons.
Ed Davey, leader of the opposition Liberal Democrats, on Tuesday called for an early election in October. “Given people are really worried, given people are losing sleep over their energy bills, businesses aren’t investing because of the crisis, I think that’s really wrong," Davey said.
