イギリスのジョンソン首相の後任を決める与党・保守党の党首選でトラス外相が当選しました
Foreign Minister Truss was elected in the leadership election of the ruling Conservative Party to decide the successor to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
Britain becomes third female prime minister
The results of the Conservative Party leadership election were announced on the 5th, and Mr. Truss won 81,326 votes, making him the new party leader.
In the UK, due to soaring energy prices due to the situation in Ukraine, a serious inflation rate of over 10% has become a problem.
As a countermeasure, Mr. Truss appealed that he would ”work on tax reductions from the first day of his inauguration as prime minister” and gained support.
Mr. Truss will become prime minister on the 6th, and will be appointed by Queen Elizabeth, who is staying in Scotland.
Truss will be the third female prime minister in British history after Thatcher and May.
