Description | Liz Truss’s journey from schoolgirl revolutionary to Britain’s new prime minister.
She is the longest-serving member of the Cabinet, but Britain’s new prime minister is virtually unknown to millions of voters. Written off, mocked and undermined by even her closest colleagues, Liz Truss slowly but determinedly took over 10 Downing Street – only to see her administration plunged into chaos within days.
With unrivalled access and insight, award-winning political journalists Harry Cole and James Heale track Truss’s transformation from geeky teenage Lib Dem to the Tory’s third female prime minister – with the most dramatic first month in office in post-war British history.
Based on interviews with Truss’s friends and supporters, as well as her worst critics and rivals, from Kwasi Kwarteng to Michael Gove, Out of the Blue provides a candid, nuanced portrait of one of the UK’s most divisive politicians.
