Liz Truss Resigns

On another dramatic day for the UK, Liz Truss announced her resignation as Prime Minister and plunged the country into further crisis.

Responding to Liz Truss's resignation as Prime Minister, Liberal Democrat Group Leader on Milton Keynes City Council, Councillor Robin Bradburn, said:

"Boris Johnson failed our country and Liz Truss trashed our economy.

"People in Milton Keynes deserve better than this incompetent and chaotic government, which has sent mortgages spiralling while our NHS services are stretched to breaking point.

"The Conservative party have proven time and time again they are not fit to lead our great country.

"This country needs a general election and local Conservative MPs in Milton Keynes now need to do their patriotic duty. Conservative MPs cannot prop up more chaotic Governments.

"At the next election people across Milton Keynes will be backing the Liberal Democrats to get a fair deal on the NHS and cost-of-living instead of more Conservative chaos."
