Liz Truss has resigned as Prime Minister outside 10 Downing Street today, making her the shortest-serving PM in British history. Her chaotic 44-day premiership saw her lose the backing of Tory MPs and avid followers, with her length of tenure being mocked online and even compared to a 'wet lettuce'.
One comedian has likened her record-breaking time inside No 10 to the duration mourners queued to see the late Queen Elizabeth II lying-in-state - and the comparison is shocking. Stand-up comedian Ivo Graham wrote on Twitter : "There are people who were in the Queue for 2% of Truss's time as PM."
