Liz Truss, 47, has been elected as the new Prime Minister of Great Britain.
Truss beat Rishi Sunak by 81,326 votes to 60,399 in a local contest after Boris Johnson resigned in July.
The Member of Parliament will be the fourth leader of the Conservative Party of the British government since 2015.
Truss promised to “unleash Britain’s potential by going for growth and removing the obstacles holding our country back”.
The new leader stressed that a growing economy is the key to giving back to the British people and opening up opportunities.
Truss pledged to take bold steps to lead people through what he called “these difficult times”.
“I am honored to be elected Leader of the Conservative Party”, the former Foreign Secretary said.
“Thank you for putting your trust in me to lead and give for our great country.”
Truss, a former Minister for Women and Equalities, has been MP for Norfolk South West since 2010.
