Man mortified after splashing £3.5k on Liz Truss dog toys - only for her to quit

A man has been left red-faced after spending £3,500 designing and making Liz Truss dog toys - only for the Prime Minister to resign before his products arrived. Dave Farquharson says he enjoys making 'funny' products as a side hustle, and decided to create a dog toy in the now former PM's image after observing her in the leadership election.

After splashing some cash to get the toy designed, created and shipped over from China, the 30-year-old was left in hysterics when the Tory politician announced she was leaving Number 10 after only 45 days on the job. Dave, who works in business development, is still going to sell the unusual items for £14.99 and is hoping that 'politically incorrect' shops might be interested in taking on the product.
