The Only Direction Is Up?  

The UK prime minister Liz Truss could hardly have a worse start in office.  Everything is seemingly against her.  The economy is in meltdown.  Her tax cuts are widely condemned.  The pound tanked. She barely took office when the queen died.  Millions are looking at her to stop inflation.  What can one say or do in a situation like this?  Truss has apparently elected to stay the course and hope the only way is up.  She will know soon enough whether it is.  Her conservative MPs will get restless quickly if she doesn't show progress.  The labor party is lying in wait to take over the government.  This is a time when she needs to choose her words carefully and act with care.  Almost any event can send the country spinning off course. It is an amazingly difficult position for a PM to be in.
