OPINION - I know Liz Truss and can't believe what extreme company she now keeps — we must stop her

Liz Truss was this week asked if she thought she was our worst prime minister. Of course, no one would admit they were and I don’t think she was or is. But her response to the question I think shows why she is managing to become the most embarrassing prime minister.

Truss, who is also still sore about being outlasted by an iceberg lettuce, said that she thought Tony Blair was a worse PM, not because he took us into the disastrous Iraq war but because he created things like the Equality Act, the Human Rights Act and the Climate Change Act. Of course, Blair was only prime minister for one of those (the Human Rights Act).
