On Thursday (October 20) Liz Truss stepped down from her role as Prime Minister with her having been in the role for just six weeks - the equivalent of 44 days.
The breaking news was announced around 1.30pm with the now former Conservative party leader telling the public during her speech that she could not deliver the mandate she was elected to do.
Emerging from 10 Downing Street alongside her husband, as reported by the Daily Record, the public were informed that another Conservative Party leadership election will be held within the next week, making her successor the third PM of 2022.
