WE asked Chronicle readers what they think new Prime Minister Liz Truss’ first priority should be after her election win yesterday.

Mrs Truss was elected Leader of the Conservative Party and the successor to Boris Johnson as Prime Minister yesterday (September 6), after defeating former Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak in the leadership vote.

One of the most pressing issues readers felt needed to be addressed was the state of the NHS, with Daz Lee calling for the NHS to be improved “so I can have my op and get back to work instead of lying here in limbo and falling through all the benefit cracks that have been put in place by Conservative governments.”

Other readers concurred, with two of them adding that the NHS needed greater attention, along with energy bills being addressed.

Keith Hall called for the re-nationalisation of necessities such as water, gas and electricity, adding they should be kept “out of the hands of the greedy”.

Andy Lowe called for Truss to “Ignore the armchair politicians that are always keen to chirp out and don't really have a clue”, while Alexander David Hale called for several changes in the North Gwynedd region.

Among these changes, which he sees as the Prime Minister’s first priority, was an “outdoor swimming pool in Caernarfon with diving boards” and a “bridge for runners so they can run over to Newborough”.

Numerous readers believed that a general election should be called, with many calling for Truss to resign already.

Glyn Jones called for Truss to “abolish” the Welsh Assembly, a sentiment echoed by John Steele, who said the PM should “demolish” the “totally corrupt” Welsh Assembly.

More light-hearted responses included Keith Walter suggesting to “Make Joe Lycett a Cabinet Minister”, after the comedian’s viral appearance on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, where he sarcastically backed Truss’ campaign while claiming to be a right-wing Tory supporter.

Another humorous suggestion was for Truss’ priority to be to “Reinstate the original sizing of Marathon, Mars, and Double Deckers”, courtesy of Steve Matthews.

Daf Griffiths had a similar idea, calling for Truss to “Bring back the Spira chocolate bar and drop the price of a freddo to 10p”.
