Aldi gave its social media followers a laugh after it acted quickly following the resignation of Liz Truss. The PM's stint in office was became the shortest in history as she announced she was quitting from outside Number 10 on Thursday.
She told journalists gathered in Downing Street that she "cannot deliver the mandate" which Conservative members gave her just over six weeks earlier. Instead she said she would step down, but would remain in post until her successor was chosen," reports the Liverpool Echo.
