British Prime Minister Tras announced his resignation, becoming the "shortest-lived" Prime Minister
Faced with the Conservative Party's forced palace, British Prime Minister Tras announced his resignation for only 45 days after taking office. Her "mini budget" case has caused a series of market turmoil and failed to fulfill the promises she made when she competed for the party leader.
British Prime Minister Trass:
When I took office, the economy and international situation were severely turbulent, families and businesses were worried about how to pay their bills, and Putin The illegal war in Ukraine threatened the security of our entire European continent, and our country was dragged down for too long due to slow economic growth, so I was elected as the leader of the Conservative Party and authorized to change this situation. I admit that under this situation, I cannot perform the tasks entrusted by the Conservative Party, so I have informed the King that I am ready to resign from the position of Conservative Party leader.
Tras said she had met with Brady, the chairman of the Conservative Party's "1922 Committee", and the two agreed to elect a new leader next week to ensure the country's economic stability and security. She will also remain as prime minister until she elects a successor.
Brady later said that he hoped to elect a new leader on October 28 and replace Tras as prime minister on October 31.
Tras was elected leader of the Conservative Party on the 5th of last month and accepted the official appointment of Queen Elizabeth II of the UK the next day. However, due to the "mini budget" case announced by then-British Chancellor Kwoten, the exchange rate of pound has plummeted, laying the slump for Tras's resignation.
Who will replace Tras as the new British Prime Minister? The Conservative Party launched a leader competition
47-year-old British Prime Minister Tras finally couldn't escape pressure after 45 days in power and chose to resign on the 20th. Some experts from believed through her physical expression that although Tras said he would stay for the new prime minister, she is more relieved now. Some Conservative MPs also said that this is the right way to do it.
The British Conservative Party’s party group “1922 Committee” chairman of the Lower House of Parliament announced the rules of the party leaders’ competition on the same day. At 2:00 p.m. next Monday afternoon, if only one candidate is nominated by 100 members of parliament, he will be automatically elected; if more than one person receives more than 100 nominations, he will be handed over to the MPs to vote; if the winner cannot be determined on the same day, he will be handed over to all party members to vote online.
data from the British gambling website shows that former British finance minister Sunak is a hot topic at the beginning, followed by former defense minister Modant and current defense minister Wallace, while former British Prime Minister Johnson is the fourth most popular. has British media reported that Johnson is observing the current situation and believes that this matter is related to national security interests and may decide to participate in the party leader election. And his supporters, especially the right-wing Conservative MPs, have obviously begun to build momentum for him, believing that he is the only one who can deal with the chaos within the party and hope that he can return to the Prime Minister's Office.
In response to this, Opposition Labour Party once again called for early election, believing that it is time for voters to decide who should become the next prime minister. If Johnson decides to run for election, it will be a tragedy for the Conservative Party and British politics.

Phoenix Observation: Trass’ resignation is expected, and no matter who succeeds to the throne, it will be difficult to resolve the chaos
British Prime Minister Tras announced his resignation on the 20th. What impact will it have on the British political situation? Please see Phoenix TV Current Affairs Commentary Zheng Hao comments and analysis -
Tras resigned from his position as British Prime Minister on the 20th and became the shortest-lived prime minister in British history. The reason for the current result is that after Tras became British Prime Minister, has implemented a series of practices that violate reality and theory, both from economic theory and from the perspective of British reality.
The so-called "mini fiscal budget" case she implemented wanted to stimulate economic recovery through tax cuts, but she ignored that the British people are facing serious inflation pressure, especially the UK's central bank has adopted a tight monetary policy, while she has adopted a loose and expanding fiscal policy. There is distortion and dislocation between the two major policies. This not only prevents the British economy from maintaining stability and growth, but has caused great chaos.
Tras's approach is naturally severely criticized from inside and outside the party, especially within the Conservative Party. After the release of the "Mini Budget" case, the Conservative Party further split, and voices against her became increasingly strong. In the end, Tras announced his resignation due to pressure.
In the future, who will clean up the "mess" in the UK now? In fact, no matter who is elected as prime minister, I believe it will be difficult to deal with such a complex and problematic situation in the short term. So in the future, no matter who comes to , Downing Street, , the British political arena and economy will still be very chaotic.

Tras "turned around" on the 45th
Tras came to power, just as the UK was in a dilemma of inflation due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Tras focuses on tax cuts and promises to control energy prices and suppress inflation to stimulate economic growth. It seems to be a good medicine to treat the British economy.
However, after the Trass government filed the "mini budget" case on September 23, it triggered a financial market crisis. Although the budget proposal proposed the largest tax cut in the UK in 50 years, it did not propose any measures to reduce public spending, which was equivalent to intending to borrow money to expand spending, triggering financial market volatility, and the exchange rate of the pound against the US dollar once hit a record low. At the same time, it caused panic in the bond market. was finally relied on the Bank of England to repurchase the Treasury bonds, which temporarily stabilized the situation. The tax cut plan itself also has loopholes, reducing the maximum income tax from 45% to 40%, which means saving money for high-income groups, and there is no fairness in the eyes of the working class. The
"Mini Budget" case was criticized in a wave of negative comments, and even the International Monetary Fund rarely criticized it. faces tremendous pressure at home and abroad, and Tras was forced to make a big reversal and announced on October 3 that it would withdraw its tax cuts for high-income earners.
, and Trass' loyal follower, former British wealth minister Kewoten, took the blame for the "Mini Budget" case and was tragically dismissed on October 14, and then former foreign minister Hunter took over the suspended wealth minister. After Hunter took office, he abolished all tax cuts, energy policies formulated by Tras, and his commitment to not cut public spending.
Tras himself apologized for the storm caused by the "mini budget" case in an interview with the media on October 17, but emphasized that he had corrected the mistake and reiterated that he would continue to lead the Conservative Party to participate in the next British general election. But this does not regain her precarious reputation. Whether it is a poll within the Conservative Party or a poll by the British people, it points to Tras' resignation. More than 100 Conservative MPs even submitted a distrust case to Brady, chairman of the "1922 Committee" who was responsible for the election of the party leader. The dissatisfaction within the party continued to ferment and demanded the removal of Trass.
Former British Home Secretary Braverman announced his resignation on October 19 for "technical" violation of government regulations, which was the last warning. Brevorman expressed concerns about the government in his resignation and criticized Tras, saying that the Trass administration had violated the key commitments made to voters.
Tras apologized to the members again when he went to the House of Commons to be questioned by members of parliament that day, but the members did not buy it, and voices asking her to step down from time to time came from the venue. Labour Party leader Starmer even asked her why she had not resigned yet. Tras responded strongly, saying that she would not resign.
Although it is the shortest-serving prime minister in the UK, the impact and impact of Trass on the British financial, political and business circles, and the people is probably unforgettable.
