Liz Truss – 2022 Text of Email to Conservative Party Members

The text of email from Liz Truss to Conservative Party members on 7 September 2022.

I am immensely grateful for everyone’s support throughout the leadership campaign and since I was elected on Monday. Whether you voted for me or not, I can assure you I will deliver for you as Leader of our Party and as your Prime Minister.

You are the backbone of the Conservative Party. While often the unsung heroes, it is the tireless efforts of our members that have delivered four consecutive General Election victories, and I know, that with your support, we will win again.

Our country faces immense challenges. Covid and Putin’s war in Ukraine mean the issues facing us today are stark, and there is a lot of work to be done over the next two years.

Together with my new Cabinet, I will work tirelessly to deliver, deliver, deliver for the British people.

We will begin work immediately to deliver a bold, Conservative plan for Britain – with three key early priorities.

Rapid action on energy bills to help people through the months ahead, while tackling the root cause of the energy crisis.

Growing the economy in a Conservative way by cutting taxes and slashing red tape.

And putting our NHS on a firm footing for the future so it works for patients.

Together we will get through these tough times and unleash the full potential of our great country.

And with your support, we will win again in 2024 and stop the Anti-Growth Coalition of Labour, the Liberal Democrats and the SNP getting their hands on the keys to Downing Street.

Yours sincerely,

Liz Truss
Prime Minister

Leader of the Conservative & Unionist Party
