Liz Truss has resigned after serving just 44 days as Prime Minister having causing chaos in the markets, losing two Cabinet members and creating turmoil on Tory backbenches.
The Prime Minister announced her resignation on Thursday afternoon during a short statement in Downing Street after meeting with 1922 Committee chairman Sir Graham Brady.
Less than 24 hours prior she told Keir Starmer that she is "a fighter, not a quitter". She is also set to become the shortest serving Prime Minister in history.
