British Prime Minister Liz Truss Resigns After Disastrous Economic Plan by obafemiawoga: 2:39pm On Oct 20, 2022

British Prime Minister Liz Truss announced Thursday that she would resign after just six weeks in office, following a disastrous and rapidly reversed economic plan that sent the pound plunging and her government into chaos.

Having been formally appointed by Queen Elizabeth II on Sept. 6, Truss is now by far the shortest-serving prime minister in British history and will be remembered as one of the most calamitous.

The previous holder of this record, George Canning, lasted 119 days in the early 19th century; Truss will serve about 50.

A leadership contest to decide the next leader of the ruling Conservative Party, who will by default become the next prime minister, is now underway and will conclude in the next week.

On Wednesday, Truss assured Parliament during the weekly Prime Minister’s Questions session that she was a “fighter, not a quitter.”

But leading a ruling party is only possible with respect and credibility. Truss increasingly had little of either, and quit just a day later.

It can never be African leaders, they would rather die there instead of resigning. This is what Buhari should have done after six months in 2015, someone with workable ideas would have come in

Liz Truss Plan wasn't disastrous because it hasn't been tried.
Let us say, The Labor Party blackmailed her and twisted her to resign.
Even The Short term Budget she presented was very workable and progressive but The Labor Party wouldn't touch it. To The Labor Party, they want General Elections now.
