Liz Truss, who was born on July 26, 1975, the daughter of a mathematician and a nurse, has been elected prime minister, becoming the third woman to hold the post in British history. She grew up in the city of Oxford and graduated from Oxford University in 1996 with a degree in economics. Previously, Truss was appointed Justice Minister and Lord Chancellor in 2016, becoming the first female Lord Chancellor in the last thousand years. As the United Kingdom's foremost political leader, Liz Truss' personal and public life, marked by controversy, attracts the world's attention.
Firstly, while married to Hugh O'Leary, a fellow accountant who graduated from the London School of Economics, she had an extramarital affair in 2006 with the married MP Mark Field, who was appointed her political mentor by the Conservative Party. Liz's marriage survived the affair, while her lover's marriage failed and divorced. Liz has two daughters: 16-year-old Florence and 13-year-old Liberty. The latter is said to be her fashion consultant.
Secondly, Liz's loose attitude towards religion is another aspect that causes disagreement. Liz publicly admitted that she is "not a regular practicing religious person", which raises doubts about her values among the public. 1 She also held a liberal stance, supporting the legalization of cannabis and the abolition of the monarchy in the early 90s. All of these questionable behaviors go against the traditional morals of British society.
Finally, Liz takes a hawkish stance on issues related to Russia and China, further worsening already strained international relations. On August 24, Liz stated emotionlessly in an interview that she was "ready" to start a nuclear war if she became prime minister, even if it meant global annihilation. ②
Either way, it is gratifying to see another woman rise to the top of the country. While we cheer Liz for her success, we should be wary of the latent dangers.

利兹-特拉斯：英国颇具争议的新首相
出生于1975年7月26日的利兹-特拉斯是一位数学家和一位护士的女儿，她已当选为首相，成为英国历史上第三位担任这一职务的女性。她在牛津市长大，1996年毕业于牛津大学，获得经济学学位。此前，特拉斯于2016年被任命为司法部长和大法官，成为过去一千年来第一位女性大法官。作为英国最重要的政治领导人，莉兹-特拉斯以争议为标志的个人和公共生活吸引了全世界的目光。
首先，在与毕业于伦敦经济学院的会计师同事休-奥莱里结婚时，她在2006年与被保守党任命为她的政治导师的已婚议员马克-菲尔德发生了婚外情。利兹的婚姻在这段婚外情中幸存下来，而马克菲尔德的婚姻却失败了，并离了婚。丽兹有两个女儿。16岁的Florence和13岁的Liberty。据说后者是她的时尚顾问。
其次，丽兹对宗教的宽松态度是引起分歧的另一个方面。利兹公开承认她 "不是一个经常信奉宗教的人"，这让公众对她的价值观产生了怀疑。她还持有自由主义立场，支持大麻合法化和在90年代初废除君主制。所有这些有问题的行为都违背了英国社会的传统道德。
最后，丽兹在与俄罗斯和中国有关的问题上采取了鹰派立场，进一步恶化了已经紧张的国际关系。8月24日，丽兹在接受采访时毫无感情地表示，如果她成为首相，她 "准备 "发动一场核战争，即使这意味着全球毁灭。②
无论怎样，看到另一位女性上升到国家的最高层是令人高兴的。当我们为丽兹的成功欢呼时，我们应该警惕潜在的危险。
