Liz Truss leaves Downing Street, wishes Sunak 'every success'
The outgoing UK Prime Minister Liz Truss left 10 Downing Street on Monday with a strong message that "brighter days lie ahead," as her reign came to an end after just seven weeks.
Truss delivered a farewell speech in Downing Street before leaving for Buckingham Palace. She did, however, leave with a warning, stating that her drive for economic growth must not be postponed forever, even after a vast package of tax cuts blew up her premiership.
“We simply cannot afford to be a low-growth country where the government takes up an increasing share of our national wealth,” Truss said on Monday.
“Our country continues to battle through a storm, but I believe in Britain, I believe in the British people, and I know that brighter days lie ahead," she added.

Truss is the shortest-serving prime minister in British history, breaking George Canning's record of 119 days in office in 1827.
Truss also wished her successor Rishi Sunak 'every success."
“From my time as prime minister, I am more convinced than ever we need to be bold and confront the challenges that we face...I wish Rishi Sunak every success, for the good of our country.”
