Liz Truss - who lasted just 49 days as PM after she tanked the economy - has been slammed for nominating at least four new lifelong members of the House of Lords.
Critics called on Rishi Sunak to block the gongs "immediately" as they fumed that "those selected for honours are the very people who helped plunge the country into chaos and crisis".
Allies reportedly insist Ms Truss has submitted a modest resignation honours list yet the leaked names confirm close personal allies to Ms Truss are those who have made the cut.
