Stirling’s MP has cast doubt over whether new Prime Minister Liz Truss can “rise to the challenge” of dealing with the ongoing energy cost crisis following her election victory this week.
Ms Truss won the approval of Conservative party members and was elected as the party’s new leader on Monday afternoon. Yesterday (Tuesday), following a meeting with the Queen at her Scottish residence at Balmoral, she became the UK’s third female Prime Minister.
But Alyn Smith MP has called on her to act now to avert a further rise in energy bills.
