Liz Truss' first Prime Minister's Questions was met with scrutiny from opposition Labour leader, Keir Starmer.
British Prime Minister Liz Truss said Thursday that her government will cap domestic energy prices for homes and businesses to ease a cost-of-living crisis that has left people and businesses across the U.K. facing a bleak winter.
At her first parliamentary grilling as British prime minister, Liz Truss on Wednesday confirmed plans to stem huge rises in the cost of energy that threaten to plunge her new government into a winter of discontent.
It's Day One on the job for Britain's new prime minister, and as Russia squeezes natural gas exports, Liz Truss faces a wartime economy. And across the Channel, how to keep the light on? How to rein in inflation? As Europeans pool their energy purchases, tax windfall profits and collectively ease costs for consumers, will they include Britain and their now Brexiteer PM in that conversation?
New British Prime Minister Liz Truss says she will "take action this week" on the energy crisis in the United Kingdom, as Britons tighten their belts in response to double-digit inflation and soaring energy costs. SOUNDBITE
