British Prime Minister Liz Truss has set a new all-time record, becoming the shortest-serving prime minister in British history with 45 days in office. Some people joke that Truss's greatest achievement in the past 45 days is to kill the queen, which may sound excessive.
But if we look back at the timeline before and after Truss's appointment, we will find that Truss is more like what she herself describes, a female fighter who is in danger.
This matter starts with the world before the Russia-Ukraine conflict, when Omicron was the focus of the world, and with its powerful contagion, it triggered an infection frenzy around the world, and the United Kingdom was not spared.
First, on February 10, Prince Charles tested positive for Covid, the second time he was infected with Covid, and he immediately self-isolated.
Then on February 14, Valentine's Day in the West, Camilla, the wife of Prince Charles, was also diagnosed positive for the new crown.
Then on February 20, Queen Elizabeth II also tested positive for the new crown.
How the queen got infected has not been figured out, after all, the United Kingdom has abandoned epidemic prevention, it is almost impossible for the queen to avoid infection, and it is not very meaningful to investigate the source of infection. At the time, according to Sky News, Charles had seen his mother a few days before he was infected.
At the time, it was said that although the queen was infected, her symptoms were mild. But the whole world knows that the most dangerous threat of this virus is the threat to the elderly, especially those like the Queen of England, who are already 100 years old.
So there were rumors that the old lady was in danger at the time, but it was never confirmed, but since then, the queen has rarely appeared. It wasn't until a month later, on March 29, that Queen Elizabeth II attended an event in London in honor of Prince Philip. This is her first public appearance after being infected with the new crown, responding to various speculations from the outside world.
But after all, he is a 96-year-old man, and it may be difficult for the outside world to know what his physical condition is. Finally, according to the British **, the death certificate says that the old lady died of natural causes and did not have any disease.
But in fact, in early June, when Britain celebrated the 70th anniversary of Elizabeth II's accession to the throne, the queen only attended two public events, and because she was unwell, she missed several events, even her favorite Jockey Club.
At this time, on June 5, the British Health Secretary Javid and Chancellor of the Exchequer Sunak suddenly announced that they would resign because they had lost confidence in Johnson, which triggered the collective resignation of the cabinet and opened the prelude to the overthrow of Johnson.
The following timeline is clear to everyone, on July 7, Johnson resigned, and on September 6, the queen met and appointed Truss as the new British prime minister.
In this **, you can clearly see that the back of the queen's hand is black, and her physical condition can probably be guessed one or two. Sure enough, just two days later, the queen died.
In this timeline, the most notable thing is that after the queen's health deteriorated, Johnson immediately resigned amid internal opposition, and Truss took over the position of prime minister before the queen's death. Perhaps Truss's short tenure is to take the blame for Johnson in this special period.
Zhuge Liang said on his deathbed that after I die, Wei Yan will rebel. After the Queen's death, did Britain fall into a crisis, and did the hidden problems within it be completely exposed?
Let's move on to the timeline of financial markets.
On September 8, local time, the Queen of England died, and in less than half a month, the pound began to depreciate sharply, and at the craziest time, the pound depreciated by up to 8% in two days.
On the surface, this is caused by the implementation of the tax cut policy after Truss came to power, but the subsequent black swan let the world see the truth, and the actual reason is that the British pension **, on September 22, the Bank of England announced a 50 basis point interest rate hike, facing the risk of thunder.
This matter I wrote in my previous article "The "Black Swan" is finally here, and Britain and Switzerland are on the verge of thunderIn fact, it is because of the British pension **, a large number of high leverage, interest rate swap operations on treasury bond yields, in the past in the era of zero interest rates, this is a good business that does not lose money, but after entering the interest rate hike cycle this year, the risk began to appear.
Data from UK Pension Protection** (PPF) shows that as of the end of August this year, UK pension assets totalled about 1£5 trillion. In the past two months, the entire pension loss has led to the need to pay back about 690 billion margins.
In fact, with the rise in interest rates, the loss of British pensions** is a bottomless pit, and this bottomless pit can even ruin the future of the whole of the UK.
It seems that this is a mess made by Truss, but in fact, people who know the whole situation know that this is a mine buried in the product design at the beginning, and it has nothing to do with Truss. Hedging financial derivatives with high leverage is a taboo for funds of this nature for pensions.
