Welcome to the last two episodes of our 5th season.

On Friday, I hosted the conservative leader hustings in Eastbourne and got to ask the candidates, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak, their thoughts on the future of the economy and how the jobs of the future will play into their mandate.

For the first time ever on a podcast, we are democratising these interviews for the wider public to hear, splitting the two candidates across two separate episodes. 

And, just like in the real event, first up is Liz Truss. 

We ask Liz a wide range of topics from how she will better help scale-ups to what her favourite podcast is- all the while trying to steer the conversation towards more than just tax… 

As you may have seen in the news, Liz's Q&A with the audience was interrupted by protestors, which we have for obvious reasons edited out. Otherwise, the interview is the same as it was live. 

This series has been the biggest yet for Jimmy’s Jobs- launching with the Governor of the Bank of England and ending with the future Prime Minister (whoever that may be). We also hosted our first live event where it was so amazing to see you all in person.

We’ll be returning after a short break with our 6th series, where we’ll be hoping to reach even dizzier heights! 

As always, thanks for listening. 

Questions we ask Liz Truss:

Liz then answers a series of questions from members of the audience, on topics ranging from how to get disabled people into work to the climate crisis.
