British Scandal: Liz Truss - Yes, it actually happened. The 49 day premiership of Liz Truss. The “I am a fighter and not a quitter” / “I am resigning” speeches being a day apart. And the lettuce that was given a celebratory party hat.

Matt Forde and Alice Levine’s popular storytelling podcast has now launched a four part series looking back at Britain’s shortest serving Prime Minister. Yes…four!
