Prime Minister Liz Truss may hit all the right notes and say the right things, but her administration is “not credible” after more than a decade of incompetent Tory governments, Brexit leader Nigel Farage said at the annual Conservative party conference in Birmingham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Liz Truss attempted to shore up support for her leadership with a speech to end the annual Tory party conference after one of the shakiest starts to a prime ministership in recent memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commentators and Conservative MPs praised her speech, with many citing her handling of two anti-fracking Green Peace activists as a highlight, allowing her to use the left-wing agitators as mascots for the “anti-growth coalition” that she claims is impeding Britain’s prosperity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brexit leader Nigel Farage praised the speech, saying that “in rhetorical terms, I loved it,” adding, \u201cIt was all there: smaller state, lower taxes and a passionate defence of the self-employed. She was upbeat, optimistic and spent much more time on the party\u2019s agenda than the failings of the opposition.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr Farage, on the other hand, said the performance was “too little, too late,” writing in The Telegraph: “If this were the first, not the thirteenth year of the Conservative government, I would have given it three cheers. Despite the shift in tone, the promises are simply not credible.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moreover, in a stirring speech to close the Conservative Party conference in Birmingham, Prime Minister Liz Truss blasted “those who think they know better.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Prime Minister told the audience that “we have enormous talent across our country,” but that “we are not making enough of it.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She stated that she desired to live in a country where “hard work is rewarded.” <\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
