Bagong UK PM Sunak, nangakong itatama ang mga ‘pagkakamali’ ni Truss
Nangako ang bagong British Prime Minister na si Rishi Sunak, na aayusin ang mga pagkakamali ng kanyang hinalinhan na si Liz Truss habang nagbabala ng “mahirap” na mga desisyon sa hinaharap.
Sa kaniyang talumpati sa Downing Street matapos na mahirang na Prime Minister ni King Charles III, binanggit ni Sunak ang “marangal” na mga layunin ni Truss ngunit sinabing may ilang “pagkakamali” na nagawa.
Sinabi ni Sunak, “Right now our country is facing a profound economic crisis, the aftermath of Covid still lingers, Putin’s war in Ukraine has destabilised energy markets and supply chains the world over. However, I wanted to ‘pay tribute’ to Truss whose tenure as leader lasted just seven weeks.
Matatandaan na ang “tax-slashing budget” ni Truss ay nagdulot ng kaguluhan sa ekonomiya at pulitika.
Ayon pa kay Sunak, “She was not wrong to want to improve growth in this country. It is a noble aim and I admired her restlessness to create change but some mistakes were made, not born of ill will or bad intentions, but mistakes nonetheless. And I have been elected as leader of my party — your prime minister — in part to fix them, and that work begins immediately.”
