New UK Prime Minister Liz Truss once publicly called idea of monarchy 'disgraceful' as a young student, but still approved by Queen
Britain's latest Prime Minister, Liz Truss, has officially taken over for scandal-plagued Boris Johnson and has been formally asked to form her own new government by Queen Elizabeth II.
The historic event between the head of a royal family and the UK government leader was the first time in the Queen's 70-year reign that the handover took place at the castle and not at Buckingham Palace in London. In a Tweet released by the royal family's account, it said,"Ms. Truss accepted Her Majesty's offer and was appointed Prime Minister and First Lord of the Treasury."Her Majesty asked her to form a new Administration.

In the clip Truss says,"I'm not against any of them personally, I'm against the idea that people can be born to rule. That people, because of the family they're born into, should be able to be the head of state of our country, that's disgraceful."
