Additional quotes by Liz Truss
Back in our tutorials, Truss demonstrated an unnerving ability to surprise. No other student matched her mischievous ability to read out essays on any number of the main events in British political history which always managed to say something new; not always accurate, but definitely new.
These essays were creative and self-consciously unconventional. As we argued over the hour, she almost never backed down, even when I did what all Oxford tutors try to do and present fact after fact to try to change her mind.

I'm a pretty honest person, I don’t get on with him personally.
I haven't spoken to him since he entered Downing Street pretty much. I don't share his politics and I think he was disingenuous during the leadership contest and, frankly, he said many things I don't approve of while he was prime minister, including attacking my record.
