Conservatives in Liz Truss' constituency have given a mixed reaction to her resignation as Prime Minister today (October 20). One said she was not given a fair chance but another said she "took a job above her station".

"We all knew that it was going to be a very poisoned chalice sort of thing taking it on in the first place," he said. "I would say there's a lot of backstabbing from other MPs really.
