Truss thanked his predecessor in his speech Boris Johnson among other things, that this managed Brexit to the finish line.

The British Prime Minister is changing because Johnson had to submit his resignation notice at the beginning of July. The confidence of the own parliamentarians in Johnson ended, and a mass exodus began among the ministers.
New the Prime Minister was elected by less than 200,000 members of the British Conservative Party. According to the Conservative Party, there were 172,437 party members entitled to vote, of which 82.6 percent voted.
Truss got 81,326 votes and Sunak got 60,399 votes. Trussi’s vote was 57.2 percent of the votes cast.

The result was announced by the chairman of the Committee of Conservative Members of Parliament Sir Graham Brady.
Johnson and Truss will travel to Scotland on Tuesday to meet the Queen Elizabeth.
The Queen resigns Johnson and then appoints a new Prime Minister.
