The Queen of England, Elizabeth II, has welcomed Britain’s new Prime Minister, Liz Truss at an audience at Balmoral in Scotland today, where she invited the newly-elected leader of the Conservative party to become prime minister.
Miss Truss swept onto the Queen’s private Scottish estate in a chauffeur-driven car with her husband Hugh O’Leary, one day after being declared the winner in the Tory leadership contest.
Like her predecessor Mr. Johnson, who earlier tendered his resignation to the Queen, she was welcomed by the Queen’s private Secretary Sir Edward Young, and her Equerry Lieutenant Colonel Tom White.
Ms. Truss said ‘good afternoon’ as she first shook hands with the Equerry, who gestured towards Sir Edward and the aide introduced himself before the politician and her husband were ushered inside.
