Responding to the news that Liz Truss will be the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Chief Executive of Christian Aid Patrick Watt said:
“The burning question is whether Liz Truss will now seize the opportunity to reset the government’s approach and rise to the unprecedented domestic and global challenges we face. She must.
“The new Prime Minister must tackle the climate crisis, a major factor in Pakistan’s floods, by supporting a just transition to net zero and urgently help the millions of people on the brink of famine in East Africa with a swift reversal of cuts to international aid.”
