特拉斯形容伊丽莎白二世为“当代英国的奠基石”，同时也是“许许多多英国人的榜样”。
British Prime Minister Liz Truss hailed Queen Elizabeth II on Thursday as the “very spirit of Great Britain” and the rock on which modern Britain was built after the monarch died peacefully at her home in Scotland.
Speaking outside her Downing Street office and residence, Truss said the queen had been “a personal inspiration to me and to many Britons”.
在讲话中，特拉斯还呼吁公众“团结起来”支持新国王查尔斯三世，并表示将效忠国王：“我们向他献上我们的忠心赤胆，正如他的母亲长久以来对众人付出的那样。”
Truss urged the public to “come together” in the difficult days ahead to support the new king, whom she revealed would be called King Charles III, before it was confirmed by Clarence House.
“We offer him our loyalty and devotion just as his mother devoted so much to so many for so long.”
