# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born 26 July 1975, Truss studied philosophy, politics and economics at Oxford, where she led the Liberal Democrats before switching to the Conservatives in 1996. After stints at Shell and Cable & Wireless, she entered Parliament in 2010 and climbed steadily through Cabinet roles under Cameron, May, and Johnson — Environment, Justice (the first female Lord Chancellor in a thousand years), Treasury, Trade, and finally Foreign Secretary in 2021. She campaigned Remain but embraced Brexit, led the Ukraine response, and in September 2022 beat Rishi Sunak for the leadership. Two days after the Queen appointed her, the monarch died; ten days of mourning followed. Truss announced an energy price cap, then a sweeping mini-budget of tax cuts and borrowing that spooked markets, tanked the pound, and forced a humiliating reversal. By 20 October she resigned. Sunak succeeded her five days later. She lost her seat in 2024.
