After weeks of heated political hustings amidst the ever-growing cost of living crisis, Liz Truss has taken the keys to Number 10 and become our new Prime Minister.
The foreign secretary formally assumed her position today after Boris Johnson finally accepted defeat and handed his resignation to the Queen. Truss has enjoyed frontrunner status throughout the leadership battle, as her component Rishi Sunak could not shake the political hot water he found himself in over his personal finances prior to candidates being announced.
Analysts have suggested that Liz Truss' relatively low profile with the public has worked in her favour, as the political climate has been so saturated with scandal under Johnson's reign that Tory MPs will be angling for someone to improve the reputation of the party.
