The shadow goverment

 Jim Ferguson with Liz Truss:

In a fearless interview, Liz Truss just tore through the illusion that Britain is run by its elected leaders. “Even if someone is bad — like Starmer or Reeves — at least they’re elected,” she said. “These other people — the technocrats — can’t be removed. That’s the problem.” She laid it bare: unelected bureaucrats, from the Bank of England to the Home Office, hold the real power. They fail at every turn — financial stability, inflation, the asylum system — yet no one gets sacked. Truss named the truth most politicians fear to utter: “The unelected are far too powerful — and they’re never held to account.” She praised the American model, where Trump brought in innovators like Elon Musk, people chosen for results, not ideology. Then she dropped her vision for Britain — bold, unapologetic, and patriotic: End the economic death spiral. Get fracking and rebuild British energy. Cut taxes, build freely, unleash enterprise. Stop funding illegal migrants in luxury hotels. Grow the economy by freeing it — not strangling it. This wasn’t nostalgia. It was rebellion — against the unelected power that has hijacked democracy itself. Liz Truss is saying what millions already know: Britain is being run by people no one voted for. And she’s calling time on it.

The obvious question is ... however to rid the shadow world of its power? The pollies can't do the nuts and bolts stuff, the bureaucratic part ... so who will? How to get such people doing it without seizing power?
