Toy maker stuck with 500 Liz Truss dolls after PM resigned before he could sell them

A novelty toy maker has been stuck with hundreds of toys of ex-Prime Minister Liz Truss, after receiving his shipment a day after she quit Downing Street.

David Farquharson, 30, put in the order for 500 dog toys on the day she won the Conservative vote to replace Boris Johnson.

He was told the £3,500 shipment would reach him in 45 days - but Truss left office after a record low 44 days leaving the businessman with a huge collection of toys in the ex-PM's likeness.
