Britain’s shortest-serving Prime Minister, Liz Truss, lasted just over a month in office. Just days after her promotion, Truss led the country through the death of Queen Elizabeth II, which saw ten days of national mourning and a state funeral. After the late Queen’s funeral, Truss’ Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng introduced the ‘mini budget’, which saw a huge array of tax cuts and policy changes. This destabilised the pound, which fell to its lowest rate in years. After intense scrutiny by the opposition and backbench Conservative MPs, Truss resigned was replaced by Rishi Sunak.
