X community adds a context note to a Liz Truss post: Former UK PM Liz Truss posted a response to  journalist who posted "A reminder that Liz Truss's economic plans as PM were heavily predicated on increasing migration for the foreseeable future." Truss responded by saying "Not true. I wanted & still want to reduce migration & have clear policies to do so. There’s a major problem with how this is accounted for in OBR forecasts, reflecting Treasury orthodoxy. We urgently need to fix this. More in my book Ten Years to Save the West out on April 16." The X community added a note to the post that read: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know. As Prime Minister Liz Truss sought to liberalise migration, not cut it. amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/s… PM Liz Truss and her Chancellor met with Home Secretary Suella Braverman on 18th October 2022 to ask her to announce a liberalisation of immigration, in order to help hit growth targets. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/…" The label is part of X’s Community Notes system.
