Truss & Kwarteng fall out over impact of Fiscal Statement: What the PM’s Oxford tutor had to say
It has been reported that Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng have had a disagreement about how to handle the disastrous impact of last Friday’s Fiscal Statement. If Mr Kwarteng had studied what Ms Truss’s Oxford tutor had to say about her, he would have been better prepared
Marc Stears(now at UCL) wrote about the time he was Liz Truss’s tutor during her time as an undergraduate at Oxford in the Murdoch Sunday Times (31st July)
According to Marc Stears Truss’s time at Oxford was marked by an ability to come up with unusual angles on issues and stick to them even when informed that facts showed she was wrong. Secondly an ability to fiercely argue a position only to drop it and equally fiercely promote something different.
