The comments come as a huge but unsurprising disappointment and insult to the very people Truss claims she will be representing.
“There’s a fundamental issue of British working culture,” Truss can be heard saying. “Essentially, if we’re going to be a richer country and a more prosperous country, that needs to change. But I don’t think people are that keen to change that.”
“Workers across the country are working all hours to keep a roof over their heads, put food on the table and provide for their families. Liz Truss should be helping working people to cope with this cost of living crisis… not peddling this offensive nonsense.” When asked about the comments by the audience at a Tory leadership event on Tuesday , Truss did not deny them and said productivity needed to improve. “I don’t know what you’re quoting there,” Truss responded to questioning. “But the point that I’ve always made is that what we need in this country is more productivity across the country and we need more economic growth.”
