Salad days over for UK PM Liz Truss

In just 45 days, new UK PM Liz Truss has her own MP’s wanting her to resign.   A recent poll shows her Government is disliked by 77% of people.  The British press have lampooned her after The Star published an article which maintained that she would have a shelf life less than that of a Lettuce.

The Conservative party has a rule that leaders cannot be challenged for 12 months, but at this rate many MP’s would be relieved if she was gone in a week.
