Liz Truss has accused the Bank of England of being “captured by leftist ideology” after it advertised jobs that do not require any financial experience.
A recruitment advert posted by the Bank online reads: “No finance background? No problem. Discover exciting opportunities at our Leeds office today.”
It invited candidates to “explore diverse roles”.
Ms Truss, who has been a fierce critic of the Bank since leaving office, took to X to slam the post on Monday.
“See how the Bank of England has been captured by leftist ideology. DEI [Diversity, Equity and Inclusion] is more important than knowing anything about the economy,” she wrote.
