Liz Truss has resigned as prime minister after just 45 days in office, making her the shortest-serving prime minister in UK history.
Subscribe to Guardian News on KZfaq ► bit.ly/guardianwiressub
The announcement, made by Truss outside Downing Street, followed a crash in the UK's economy, the departure of two key cabinet members and a loss of confidence by almost all of her own Conservative MPs.
Truss won the leadership race over Rishi Sunak in September; her resignation has sparked yet another contest to be the Tory leader and next prime minister.

She still receives £115 000 a year pension for life. For a month in a job where your biggest achievement was crashing a G7 economy, that's not bad. After paying NI contributions for fifty-one years, I receive a pension of just over £8500 per year. Seems fair.

@@janetgough6585 That's probably because (1) the news only broke at 1.30 this afternoon with very little warning and the rest of the day has naturally been spent with Tory MPs either testing the waters, disqualifying themselves or else wholeheartedly throwing their names into the ring; even the official "rules" going forward were only announced a few hours ago; (2) the vast majority of us simply won't get a say on who it is unless the Tory party get sufficiently spooked enough to say "sod this, let's just have a general election". Which they won't, because they'll be wiped out. So we're all just going to have to take what we're given regardless of how it effects mortgage payments/food bills/anything you think might matter. This isn't like four months ago where we had two months of learning who all the potential players are and what they apparently stood for and what it might mean - this is all going to be done one way or another in 8 days with nominations not even closing until Monday evening, so you're probably not going to see much of any analysis on the candidates or anything else until the matter is settled due to things moving at a frankly ridiculous pace because the Tories simply do not want to risk their government becoming "unstable" and thus providing an excuse for a general election to be called; (3) none of the even potential candidates have made their mandates public yet so quite literally all anyone can do is speculate without analysis; (4) Liz Truss made it clear that she will functionally remain as PM until a successor is chosen next Friday so it ultimately doesn't really change much of anything over the next 8 days anyway. We're still living under -her- Jeremy Hunt's economic plan and probably will do until the next GE since I'd imagine the last thing the next Tory PM would want to do is risk spooking the markets yet again.
