With rebellious Conservative Party planning an inside shot to his leadership, after backtracking on his plans to cut taxes on the richest by 45 percent and persuading his Chancellor of Finance and ideologue, Kuazu Kwarteng, not to step down, British Prime Minister Liz Truss has fought this Wednesday at the Conservative Conference in Birmingham, for their political survival.
Only when Parliament reopens will it be known whether it will be successful and whether or not there will be early elections in Great Britain.
As a sign of the Prime Minister’s weakness, the first applause has just arrived during his speech when he referred to Ukraine. A symbol of how difficult the time Truss faces at his house.
an unexpected storm
“I’m going to ride through the storm,” promised Liz Truss at the Birmingham conference, where the British industrial revolution was born.
But the storm began at the beginning of the speech. Greenpeace, the environmental organizationmanaged to infiltrate the conference and two militant girls rolled out a poster that read: “Who voted for this?”
They referred to frackingthat these conservatives who call themselves libertarians will impose themselves solve the energy crisis that the war has generated.
Rebecca Newsom and Ami McCarthy, of the Greenpeace organization’s political team, attended the conference. Greenpeace has accused Truss of “Destroy” many of the environmental commitments in the manifesto of the Tories.
“Broken promise after broken promise, the prime minister is rapidly transforming his party’s manifesto longer misleading advertising never written, “Newsom said in a statement.
“Many will wonder if their government is accountable to the public or to pension fund managers, right-wing think tanks and fossil fuel giants who encourage it,” the Greenpeace board said.
Truss got rid of the protest with a smilewithout aggression. He replied that “I am part of the opposition coalition which prevents Great Britain from growing ”.
But after a disastrous conservative conference, with brawls, plots against the government, two ministers speaking out against the prime minister and demanding the resignation of the chancellor of finance, the room took pity. She cheered Liz Truss as security moved the two protesters.
save your cargo
With her ocher dress, accompanied by her husband and a packed hall, which hid the rebellion she is suffering within the party and her own cabinet due to her positions, Truss tried to save his positionwhen he was just three weeks old, including mourning the death of Queen Elizabeth.
Nobody rules out early elections after Christmas in Great Britain. Truss hasn’t consulted the cabinet about his hideously controversial “mini budget”.
Many Tories believe her Do you have to go now before it is too late for the party to regain credibility and electoral strength.
66 percent of conservative voters want him to leave. She was elected by only a handful of militants in her leadership dispute with former finance chancellor Rishi Sunak. Not even the Conservative parliamentary party wants it. Her candidate was Sunak.
The anti-growth coalition
the first, that has Margaret Thatcher as a modelHe promised to defeat the “enemies of business” and lead Britain “through the storm”.
Truss targeted what he described as the “anti-growth coalition” when he accused Labor, Liberal Democrats, SNP, trade unions and protesters of holding back the UK.
Truss said he would not let the “coalition against growth stop us”.
“They’d rather protest than do, they’d rather talk on Twitter than make tough decisions,” he said.
The Prime Minister assured that Sir Keir Starmer, the Labor leader, “He doesn’t have a long-term plan nor a vision for Great Britain “.
“The anti-growth coalition doesn’t have it, because they don’t face the same challenges as regular workers. These enemies of the company They don’t know the frustration you feel at seeing your route blocked by protesters or your trains stopped due to strikes, “he said.
“In fact, his far left friends tend to be the ones behind the interruption,” he continued, in an ideological tone, with which he tried to please a conservative party. furious with his driving.
when I labor they take 33 percent in front of the conservatives if the elections were now, the conference room of the conservatives has decided to support the prime minister. At least officially. There was applause, applause, a standing ovation during the speech, which had no announcements but ideological purposes.
A weak first
The question now will be whether the prime minister can persuade his own MPs to give it to him a similar level of support for their policies and survive trying. There has never been a more weary and weak prime minister in his first three weeks in office.
Truss told voters he is “on their side” and that his government will now use his growth plan to “get Britain moving.” He announced that he is working to put the UK “on the path to long-term success”.
Liz Truss promised to “stay behind the companies until the end”.
He said “now is the time to harness the power of free enterprise to transform our country and ensure that our best days are yet to come.”
War in Ukraine
And it was the war in Ukraine and Vladimir Putin. Liz Truss said the UK will support Kiev “for as long as necessary.” The Prime Minister believes that Ukraine “will win”. The conference remained and applauded as a sign of respect for Ukraine. A long applause, led by Ben Wallace, Minister of Defense and former military, who has premier aspirations.
“We’re back compliant. We don’t spend enough on defense. We have become too dependent on authoritarian regimes for cheap goods and energy, ”the prime minister told the crowd in Birmingham.
He went on to say that the country “did not resist Russia soon enough”. But “we’ll make sure this never happen again“. “So we are taking decisive action to strengthen our energy security,” she promised.
Britain post-Brexit
The Prime Minister said his plans to boost economic growth will ensure the nation can “afford”. excellent public services“.
With a Brexit that It is not going as they imaginedLiz Truss said that by the end of this year “all the red tape in the EU will go down in history“. UK regulation after Brexit will be “business and growth friendly”.
The premier has promised to “oppose the separatists” who want to break up the British “family”. While firing a warning shot Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP of Scotland, which promotes a referendum for independence.
“I’m ready to make the tough decisions. You can trust me to do whatever it takes. status quo It is not an option. That is why we cannot give in to the rumors of decay. We will build Britain for a new era, “the prime minister said goodbye.
Then he left the stage to the rhythm of “Going forward”, a 90s song by Mpeople. She awkwardly hugged her husband of hers. They said goodbye from the stairs and immediately left for London. Thus ended one of the strangest and most controversial conservative conferences in Tory history.
