Nottinghamshire's political and business leaders have revealed their thoughts on Liz Truss as the new Prime Minister
Nottinghamshire's political and business leaders have revealed their thoughts on Liz Truss as the United Kingdom's new Prime Minister. While the country's new Conservative leader and successor to Boris Johnson has stated her number on priority will be tackling the soaring costs of living, some in Nottinghamshire remain less than convinced.
"This has been a Conservative Government which has ignored local government and the important part they play in the local economy. Conservatives outside of the Labour stronghold in the city however have high hopes for their new leader. Bassetlaw's Tory MP Brendan Clarke-Smith, who was a teacher in Aspley and grew up on a council estate in Clifton, says: "I’m delighted Liz Truss has been elected as the new Conservative leader. I think she is the right person to unite the party and to deliver on the issues people have told us are the most important to them.
But significant doubt does remain in the north. Ashfield Independent Leader of Ashfield District Council, councillor Jason Zadrozny, added: "Let’s not pretend that Liz Truss presents a fresh start for the Conservatives. Her first job will be to pretend that she had nothing to do with the previous Government. This is despite her being in Boris’s gang.
David Findlay, Nottingham's director for commercial property company, JLL said: "Businesses in the East Midlands will be hoping Liz Truss’ confirmation as Prime Minister signals a return to the priorities set out by this Government in 2019.
