Gate News message, April 18 — Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, who served the shortest tenure in the role, stated that Britain’s economy is on a “very negative trajectory” due to high taxes, excessive regulation, and soaring energy costs that make entrepreneurship unrewarding. She attributed inflation and wealth inequality to “currency debasement” and expressed concern that monetary policy discussions have become a “taboo” within government, calling the situation “quite alarming.”
Truss expressed strong interest in Bitcoin as a tool to combat currency debasement and resist centralized financial control. She disclosed that she has been engaged with Bitcoin since her time as Chief Secretary to the Treasury. She is now actively building CPAC UK, planning a three-day conference to unite entrepreneurs and activists around a “sovereignty and freedom” movement.
“There are only two choices,” Truss stated, “either we continue to decline, or we fundamentally change course.”
