Quick Glance: Liz Truss: From Premiership to Resignation in 49 Days

Liz Truss became Prime Minister and resigned after just 49 days, despite her husband's prediction that 'it would all end in tears'.

Truss assumed office on September 6, 2022, succeeding Boris Johnson, but faced early challenges and personal struggles.

Despite implementing economic measures and facing political turbulence, Truss resigned after a mini-budget led to a pensions crisis.

She reflects on her failed tenure, attributing blame to structural issues and drawing parallels to the controversial football manager Brian Clough.
