The Liz Truss Show

Liz Truss is joined by Scott Singer, former Boca Raton mayor and Republican congressional candidate in Florida’s newly redrawn 25th District, to discuss the coming midterms, President Trump’s America First agenda, the fight to secure the border, and why Congress must do more than chase viral clips.

Singer argues that Trump’s tax cuts, deregulation, border policy and energy agenda are resonating with voters — but warns that Congress must turn executive orders into lasting law. He also discusses free speech, the radicalisation of the Democratic Party, antisemitism, immigration, the Washington swamp, and why America’s midterm elections matter far beyond the United States.
Florida’s congressional map was recently redrawn and signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis, with Scott Singer pivoting his campaign to Florida’s 25th District following the changes.
This is a conversation about the future of the American right, the battle against socialism and woke politics, and whether the West can rediscover common sense.

Jamie Borwick joins the show to discuss the removal of hereditary peers from the House of Lords, Tony Blair’s constitutional reforms, the rise of unelected bureaucratic power, and what he describes as the “blobification” of Britain.

* Whether Britain’s constitution still functions properly
* The rise of five-party politics
* Reform UK and Conservative decline

In this episode, Liz Truss is joined by property expert Russell Quirk to break down the real causes of the UK housing crisis — and why both Labour and Conservative policies have made things worse.

Quirk explains how tax changes, regulation, and the upcoming Renters Reform agenda are driving landlords out of the market, reducing housing supply and pushing rents higher. With tens of thousands of landlords exiting the sector, tenants are now facing fewer choices and rising costs.

The discussion covers:
The impact of the Renters Reform Bill and EPC regulations
Why government intervention is inflating house prices
How schemes like Help to Buy increased demand but failed to boost supply
The role of the Bank of England and money printing in asset inflation
Why young people are being locked out of home ownership
The influence of bureaucracies like Homes England and the Climate Change Committee
How immigration and housing supply pressures intersect
Why both major parties have failed to solve the crisis

They also explore broader political themes, including:
The rise of anti-landlord sentiment
The role of local government and “the blob” in blocking reform
Why housing policy is driven by short-term politics, not long-term solutions
What upcoming local elections in Essex and beyond could reveal about public sentiment

This is a deep dive into why housing in Britain is becoming increasingly unaffordable — and who is responsible.

Liz Truss is joined by Lord Toby Young, founder of the Free Speech Union, to discuss Britain’s growing free speech crisis, cancel culture, political policing, online speech arrests, and why the UK may need its own version of America’s First Amendment.
Toby reflects on his own cancellation in 2018, how it led to the creation of the Free Speech Union, and what his organisation has learned from thousands of cases involving people disciplined, investigated or arrested for lawful speech.
They discuss the rise of cancel culture, the role of the police in investigating social media posts, the impact of the Online Safety Act, free speech concerns around CPAC GB, and whether US pressure through trade deals could help protect civil liberties in Britain.
This is a wide-ranging conversation about liberty, censorship, political intimidation, cancel culture, policing, and the future of free expression in the UK and across the English-speaking world.
