It may seem like a million years (especially for Liz Truss) but the Conservative leadership contest concluded little over a month a go.
Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss jostled first for the support of their fellow Tory MPs and then the votes of party members. Most Conservative politicians backed Sunak. The trend was the same in Wales with most Welsh Tories in the Senedd and Westminster throwing their support behind the former chancellor Rishi Sunak.
But there were some who vocally supported the appointment of Liz Truss as leader of the party and therefore the country. Some believed it so passionately they wrote in newspapers and on their social media about the virtues of our new PM.
