“The system is set up to stop change.” The UK’s shortest-serving Prime Minister on: - What really happened during the mini-budget crash - Why the Treasury doesn’t believe in growth - How regulation is choking entrepreneurship - Why Britain is stuck in long-term decline - And why she thinks Westminster is structurally broken Is the UK addicted to stagnation and allergic to bold ideas? My 5 takeaways from @trussliz on Business of Politics 👇

1. The Treasury Destroyed My Agenda Before I Even Started I still believe my reforms were right. But the Treasury undermined my plans from day one. They don’t want things to change.

2. The Bank of England Made Everything Worse The bureaucracy has accumulated all the power. They mismanaged bond markets and hiked rates into panic. Gilt rates are higher now than October 2022, but there’s no hysteria about that.

3. You Can’t Govern Without Internal Support To make real change you just need 350 MPs. The issue was I didn’t have enough support from the Conservatives. Too many of them wanted to stay with the status quo.

4. The Voting Blocks Have Changed It used to be that more well off voted Conservative and the less well off voted Labour. That’s now completely changed. Labour represents the globalist view, and the rest are more nationalist. And whoever represents those nationalist minded voters will win the next election.

5. We’re in a Doom Loop of Stagnation The UK has accepted low growth as normal. No party is offering a real fix. They're comfortable with slow decline.
