She spent longer campaigning for the position than she did actually holding the position.
The definition of swimming an ocean to die at shore 🤣
The ironic truth.
The Lbi Dems managed to spend 5 whole years in government. 5 years of increasing tuition fees, and 5 years of Tim Farron's homphobic opinions.
HA HA HA!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
She will still get a former PM lifetime pension above £203,000 per year, Liz Truss only spoke at the queen's funeral and that's it.
Man as an Aussie I used to think our PM shuffles were bad, but oh boy the motherland sure is beating our ass with the PM speed runs.
we are going 3 for 3.
If we are going for the record might as well really go for it, i mean it's only the future of our nation at stake right?
Wait! A wild PM appeared. What would you like to do?
1. Vote 2. Battle 3. Cheer 4. Run(Got away safely)
@@bkasyap7117 PM used Cheer!
3. Cheer...
...It's not very effective.

Stop laughing at us. Your country was propped up by China money and now the tap is turned off, let's see what you desert farmers can do
She’s gonna make a great trivia question in about 10 years.
My thoughts exactly
Which PM is considered to be responsible for breaking up the UK?
It’s great Trivia already! Trivia Truss. It has a certain ring.
I’d play trivia truss

"i can accept annihiliating the UK as a national entity, but i draw a line at banning fracking".
“I can accept pork markets in China, BUT I draw the line at European economic zones!”
Its a cashback scheme. They let it through and get cash back later in their pockets by the companies involved. It's a temporary solution that increases carbon emissions (has possible long-term unknown problems) when we have cleaner more sustainable options available.
@Jhon Doe nah, only a small minority of migrants are criminals. And even then, why are you insulting your justice system? Don't you already have a good way of handling criminals?

BACK TO THE EU!!!
@@nerdy_dav As much as I wish that'd be possible. UK has made all of Europe hate us, and we have to suffer the consequences of crackheads running the country.
@@nerdy_dav i agree
@@nerdy_dav hell no! Silly comment you made.
@@Takeru9292 so silly you didn't say why 😂
The most amazing thing about Liz Truss is that people thought her run was over when she got the Queen Funeral event, which costed her 10 days. Can you imagine if she hadn't had that event? She would have gotten it done in less than 5 weeks, or 35 days.
She set the highest bar for PM speedrunner to date, half the time of the previous record holder. Truly masterful plays.
How much did she earn per run?
Also the route isn't safe yet, let's see who can best her time
The previous record holder had to die of tuberculosis
She can still claim the £115,000 a year ex prime minister grant though!
impressive speed run, that queen event surr was a rare random event. couldn't have predicted it.
@@jibcot8541 they should split £115,000 between the 5 prime ministers in the 6 year period, not £115,000 each. At this point the prime minister position is just a revolving door to get more money out of tax payers for the tories
For the first time in 69+ years the uk is lizless 😢
LOL. I don’t think LizT was ever any sort of replacement for QLiz.
I like how you could have said 70 but opted for 69
@@Joker-yw9hl haha

Finally
The fact that the title says 'finally' despite the fact she was there for 44 days is so damning for Truss
It's still 44 days too long 😅
The Cabbage outlasted her
@@EpicRenegade777 HEY! It's a lettuse my good sir! Please properly represent the winner of this historic duel.
By far the shortest-lived Prime Minister in British History (which is dreadfully long). And it still feels like it was approximately 42 days too long of a term.
@@jacob4920 UK politics is like playing musical chairs in a phone booth, in the middle of a flood.
If the queen hadn't died, she'd have been out in a week.
Of course, cause she´d then have been a totally superfluous "Liz", I mean, who needs 2 at once, after all ???
The Queen died of Cringe literally when she realised that Liz is the new P.M.
@@rajarshisarkar999 Colonisation is barley talked about in Britain. Very few discus or are prepared to admit the terrible things that were done. A dirty secret best forgotten. The USA & Europe are colonial masters. In their colonial lands how many famines have they caused, how many countries have they ground down into poverty & despair? Their colonial project to rule the entire world continues. The plundering rapacious Anglo Saxons were exposed in Putin’s speech the other day and the whole world, outside the west, agreed.
@@Jay...777 To be honest Britain really ain't having Britons in it, it's having Viking and Saxon inbred individuals. Original British Isles Inhabitants honestly Genetically and Linguistically died out in the Dark Ages.

the only thing shorter than Truss' tenure was her resignment press conference. 2 minutes! Literally the shortest press conference I've ever seen
I found out Truss was resigning whilst getting my flu jab. The excitement and relief in the air was palpable. One of the most enjoyable flu jabs I've ever recieved, to be honest.
Did you get the anti-bojo variant?
This might have been my favourite season of 'Yes, Prime Minister'.
Bit of a shame it was such a short season. Here's hoping next week's Christmas Special tides us over until the future seasons - there's so many story possibilities just hanging there teasing us.
It's was cut short, Doctor who has longer seasons
@@Thermalions Why do you think this season has aired its last episode? 😀
At this point even mayfly will live longer
Fun fact, former Prime Ministers all get a yearly allowance of around 130000 USD every year. Perhaps we should all try to be Liz Truss, be PM for a short time and quit, and profit.
They don't get paid in dollars btw..
Wrong country. Wrong currency.
No need to say USD, thanks to Truss the conversion rate is 1.
I guess to her the money is worth it more than her reputation in the current political sphere and in history. Fucking horrific. You'd think that a politician would wanna become pm to leave a good mark and a good influence on the country, but according to Truss that doesn't matter. After the ticking timebomb David Cameron set up Theresa May with, and then the shite terms Bojo and Truss had, I feel real bad for May. May seemed the most genuine out of them all, which may not be a high bar, but yeah she has my sympathy after what we've seen
U mean: Work for 34days, destroy everything, then get paid 130.000$/year for life ??? I could get used to that life, I guess...
@@TheObiareus don't remind me of the plummeted value of the pound
A friend remarked it was quite a feat for Truss to beat a man who had died whilst in office (George Canning), I said, let's be fair, so did Liz Truss.
George canning definitely had a good excuse to say nothing if interviewed.
One was dead at the dispatch box, the other was dispatched into a box.
Liz Truss isn’t dead?
@@Endeva09 politically, emotionally, and morally yes, but physically no
@@Endeva09 nope very much alive unfortunately.
@Callum Robson I had to read your comment twice. That either means that I'm due for newer spectacles, or its a clever remark.
Tanking the economy and then leaving in a month is nothing short of amazing
To be fair she didn't tank the economy, just a bunch of stock market and fleet st types didn't like it
That counts as tanking the economy...
And a 150k for doing it don't forget
Plus the $115K as pension per year for life.
She hat tricked the whole country, and definitely not in a good way.
Sounds like the plot for a movie where all the ministers get sick and their kids have to run the house for a day.
Home Alone X: A Hairy Tale.
Larry the cat finds himself alone at No. 10, due to some unforeseen screwup by the hoomans. He then valiantly defends the house by tooth and claw, to prevent any evil Tories from entering.
And you guys have started a dedicated podcast just to cover her first 100 days in office😂😂😂
Well, that turned out pretty ambitious now...
The strongest contenders for PM are now a head of iceberg lettuce, Larry the No. 10 Cat, Count Binface, Elmo and Lord Buckethead.
I heard Sponge Bob was throwing his hat in the ring.
All hail Lord Buckethead!
If I wasn't a filthy rebellious colonial Larry would get my vote.
@@richmcgee434 I'm something of a filthy rebellious colonial myself.
You forgot Boaty McBoatface
Truss' tenure was more dramatic but shorter than an episode of 90 Day Fiancé!
-Become PM during Crisis
-Worsens Crisis
-Refuses to Elaborate Further
-Resigns
40 Day Fiasco!
The only people who've stayed the course for less time than Truss are Putins new conscripts.
Perhaps she could lead them instead. They are all looking for economic growth too.
After that mini budget, she practically works for Putin anyway.
A leadership contest now would be like a bunch of people fighting over the helm of a ship, moments before it crashes into an iceberg.
It makes sense, one tginks tyey should steer right, and the other left in order to avoid the iceberg, but it's too late.
Could be worse, they could vote labour.
Nah, they have already hit the iceberg and the ship is rapidly taking on water.
Meanwhile the Scottish Govt. has loaded up the lifeboats and is just waiting for the go ahead to launch.
The people wanted this.
As an American, this has been fascinating to watch
Finally, another democratic country having a bigger shitshow of politics than America. Is what I would have said, had January 6th not happened.
@@abmstudio3678 honestly, I think the past month has highlighted how the UK system is functionally set up to do a more effective job holding the executive branch accountable. Too much of the American system has depended on norms, rather than having set rules for accountability like the UK system does
@@madmonk3030 totally agree as an American. The fact we couldn’t pressure Trump to resign when he literally okayed an insurrection in our capitol is proof that sometimes “chaos” is preferable to tyranny
@@madmonk3030 counter point, Pakistan has the same system as the U.K. and it allowed the millitary to dictate who stays in power. In its 75 years of independence, there has not been a single democratically elected government that has stayed the full five years. They all get voted off either for the smallest mistake or for accumulating even a little power against the millitary. There can be a major hit to instability because of the no confidence motion. Which as you will see in the coming weeks, will happen to the uk as well.
"Okayed an insurrection" hahahaha!
I bet May is laughing her head off
Happiest Theresa has looked in parliament was telling Boris Johnson off
Because of what?
@@travelwell6049 That Truss was in less time than her and that she'll no longer be the worst PM ever lol
May says "Kama is my Biitch"
@@SirEnVo that's a really low bar to set 🤣
It obviously was Schrödingers confidence vote :D
Love how BoJo and Truss blames Putin for everything but not mentioning "no, no" word starting with B and finishing with REXIT.
Yes, it has everything to do with Ukraine and not with the fact UK is still are resetting there trade and economic ties. Leaving them particularly vulnerable to the markets whims. *eye 🍥*
UK politicians complaining about "illegal wars" is fucking hilarious considering we were involved in a two decade long illegal war in the middle east. bunch of disgusting hypocrites.
It doesn't have anything to do with Brexit, and everything to do with Europeans being stupid enough to rely on Russia for gas and oil.
"44 Days in Office: Truss Finally Resigns". Even accurate, matter-of-fact news headlines read like satire.
At least she now holds a world record speedrun
Yeah, but on "easy"-level and the "god mode" on ( =countless lifes).

I could not believe that the “Will Truss last 100 days?” Would be too long! How could anyone imagine having a new Prime Minister every month and a half!
5:21 good on this man - not all MPs are power hungry jobsworths, some of them genuinely care about their constituencies.
The lettuce won 🥬🤣
Fun fact, 44 is the same Number as Lewis Hamilton's facing Number. Her Government was run about as well as the 2021 Abu Dhabi grand Prix.
Haha 😂
No Liz, this is not right!!!
That day still living in your head rent free
Max verstappen is like rishi sunak. Max won in 2021 and rishi should be PM now
Considering what happened at italy in 2022 with Ricardo I rather have a abu Dhabi 2021 gp again

"I came into power during a time of great economic stability. I made everything even worse with my Trussenomics plan. I tried to give my rich friends a tax break whilst simultaneously making the general public poorer. I do believe some of my friends made money shorting the pound. But apart from that I've achieved nothing. Oh I did make a cap on energy bills. But that got cut in half. Yes I should have implemented a windfall tax on energy companies. But they're my rich friends too. Anyway. I'm resigning as the worst PM of modern times. And I blame everyone else for that. I do have a great pension now. Sorry about your mortgage rise. But whatever. I'm out"
5 Prime Ministers in 37 years before 2016
5 Prime Ministers in 6 years since 2016
I wonder what happened in 2016 to cause such chaos? 🤔🤔🤔
"Remember, no Elizabeths."
Is that a no russian reference? LOL
Makes Australian politics look like a high school captain's contest.
Yep, Rudd and Gillard are statesmen compared to the Tory circus Cameron to May to Johnson to Truss
Aussie politics has improved since the Libs got tossed out.
@@yt.personal.identification seems to be a common thread.
@@idiotsinc The big difference is that dumping the right wing party was done by election. The will of the people was considered.
I'm looking forward to SummoningSalt's episode about the PM speedrun world record progression.
The entertaining thing about the Liz Truss government is just how bad they were at being Conservative politicians. The party has spent decades and decades wrecking Britain, but they have normally been very skillful about making bungs to their voters look like sensible fiscal policy and at least keeping up a degree of pretence at economic moderation at least to satisfy the bond market. Truss didn't seem to even recognise the need to keep their voters or markets sweet and announced numerous policies that were obviously (even to most of her MPs) going to go down like a lead balloon, even with their normally loyal voters, let alone waverers. And even after weeks of trouble, they continued to plough into uncessary battles with just about everyone. This lead to an obvious open goal which Labour took with good political skill - choosing just the right issue (fracking) to cause the rows in the Tory party to come to a head and for Truss to be dispatched. Fun to watch, but I'm sure going to be paying for it through my mortgage and energy bills...
Yeah, so true, in opposition to the rest of the world, this whole entertainment comes very costly for the Britons themselves... 😞
I'm very impressed with how fast and bad everything turned out for Liz. Like worse case scenario at every corner
Given all that she stay in office remarkably long.
Maybe you should rename TLDR News UK to WTF News UK
Always has been.
Hopefully things will calm down when labour get in power
maybe they should just call it "Labour agit prop"
@@LillyP-xs5qe how so they can't spend their way out like they always do.
@@SaintGerbilUK I know you are trying to be all anti Labour and everything but come on, offer 12 years of Conservative leadership we need a change.
The Conservatives' only chance is Rishi becoming PM with Hunt staying as Chancellor. Rishi is the only person with the personal brand strength to come anywhere close to improving the Tories' brand after so much damage has been done - and it'll need to be an almost flawless tenure. The reality is, Government isn't meant to have so many years of one party leadership. Things are meant to go in a circle of Tories' austerity, public spending cuts, and loosening regulations, followed by; Labour increasing public spending and tightening private sector regulation. And around we go in a nice little middle ground, in some form of balance. Too much time in government is bad for everyone and breeds complacency and arrogance, as we are seeing.
I don't think there is anyway to improve the Tories Brand. It's kind of like a catch-22. To fix the economy, massive spending cuts required including cuts in spending for social services. That will go bad with the votes. The other option, increase borrowing. It will probably increase interest rates and make cost of living worse. Will also not go down well with the common voters.
@@shahzebk7899 raising taxes on the super well off, on extreme profits and ensuring tax dodging billionaires and corporations are forced to pay tax would also help.
@@jeremymanson1781 And when are Conservatives ever going to support that?
@@dgthe3 Never?
Well goodbye truss issues.
You will be missed.
How’s the lettuce doing?
@@travelwell6049 It delivered it's victory speech yesterday.
Comedy is over :/
Looking forward to the podcast later. 😀
Could you please do a video about Truss and her alliance with 55 Tufton Street?
Led by Donkeys TH-cam channel has done a great explanation of her involvement, and I’d love you to give your thoughts on what happened.
Thanks feller, you’re a godsend during these strange times, especially as, when watching the news, they seem to me to be delighting too much in the minutia of scandal, sensation and political speculation instead of making sense of what actually happened today. Not what you need when your pension or employment might be tanking.
*Ah shit, here we go again.*
Did anyone else notice how happy Liz Truss was at the lectern and smiling when she said she was resigning ?
Oh, yes, and why wouldn't she? Her political career may be over, but now the heat will be off of her and she will still get paid for even being the PM.
Shes psychopathic, no empathy whatsoever, completely oblivious. Just compare it to Theresa May resigning who was genuinely upset. Truss has no care for the damage she's inflicted and will just be happy to walk away with her pension.
Four Scaramuccis isn't bad. So now Four Scarmuccis = One Truss.
Some people will do anything to avoid using the metric system
"putting their tick in the box not because it's in the national interests but in their own personal interests to achieve ministerial positions"
I think cabinet positions shouldn't go to MPs but to experts in their respective fields, that's how it's done in the United States where the Secretary of the Treasury (equivalent of UK Chancellor of Exchequer) is an economist appointed by Biden and confirmed by congress. They're not a politician, they're a public servant who serve the national interest at the direction of the democratically elected executive.
You didn't see who Trump put in his cabinet, did you?
@@dgthe3 none of those shite appointments would have been any better had they been also GOP senators or representatives.
Truss wasn't the shortest PM in UK history. She is the shortest SERVING PM in UK history. The honour of SHORTEST PM in UK history goes to Tiny McGee - a Scottish dwarf who served for three days in 1729 before being kidnapped by French child traffickers who mistook him for a smartly attired street urchin.
That is a shame.
If only they had arrived a few minutes later he would have likely left work and missed them unless he worked on past half five.
Good Tory leadership is not forthcoming. Do Ministers choose from the failed skeletons of earlier on in the year, hoping that they will perform any differently this time around? Alternatively, let the people decide. People want, no demand, a General Election.
Wow, this is exactly the channel I was looking for! I cannot believe I've never come across it before!
I thought Braverman was sacked due to a security breach? She was sending work related issues through her private email
Yeah I find it strange that wasn't mentioned
She resigned, she wasn't sacked. That's the reason she gave for her resignation, that she was owning up to making a mistake by sending confidential documents via personal email. But really it was a dig at Truss. Implying that Truss should also resign for the mistakes she made.
Nah, she resigned due to the email thing. But it was probably a pretext since it was such a minor snafu.
I suspect that was her thinly veiled reason for resigning. You know,being given the option of resigning to save face instead of being sacked. The usual go to of 'Personal reasons' just doesn't work the same when you've only been in the job for a single digit number of weeks.
She resigned over a minor issue - she wrote in a statement she didn't believe the government would carry on the Party's Manifesto promises. It looked like a disagreement on immigration, essentially (Braverman in a hardliner, while Truss/Hunt were more willing to allow high-skilled immigration in order to spur growth)
Truss came across to me as a sort of strange hybrid between Teresa May and Nux from Mad Max, this kinda terrifyingly unconvincing voice fronting a weird frail-like demeanour whilst all the time careering us head on into total destruction while announcing “what a lovely day”
I think lizz truss is sexy. I loved the way she dressed.
That is horrifically specific and on point. Well done.
She now gets £115,000 a year for life for being a failure at a job that didn't last 2 months.
Plus she gets to not be the one in charge when the Tories get obliterated at the next election.
She's the lucky one.
They really ought to make clear who has the ability to call a vote of confidence and on what grounds, it sounds like it's some of the people she outranks who should be resigning if they're publicly constradicting their leader. It's the times she contradicts herself that count.
Johnson returning would put the final nail in the coffin of "democracy" in the UK.
Never should you fail to mention that Truss herself fif not vote in this Vote or Lose the Whipp issue.
The whole thing is mad, the vote wasn't even to ban fracking, but to debate banning it so tha a later bill could be presented.
It backfired bigly on the Tories. Even Johnson never went for that Deathwish.
I hope all the ''irregularities'' mean that they'll redo the vote, fracking just really shouldn't exist anymore.
Tell that to Australian politicians. They can't get enough of it, even though we all hate it. The people don't want any new fossil fuel projects approved, but they keep doing it, regardless of which party is in government.
I like how she never mentioned her failure instead trying to point out the 'good' that she did
"Don't you think she looks tired?" - Tenth Doctor
"Confederacy of elected quitters." - Claire Foy as Queen Elizabeth II in "The Crown".
Just two quotes that came to mind when I heard the news.
I did always love how ironical topical that quote from the Crown is (I don't recall hearing the other before sorry)
That transition to brilliant was brilliant
Thank you for putting things very clearly & in an Engaging way ♡
Not a single Tory voted against the Party for the country, even though they pretend to be against fracking. That tells you all you need to know, it's _party & business_ over country!
Liz truss resigning is by far and away a great thing I see no way how the Tories can avoid calling a general

Having lived all my life in a country that's constantly in political turmoil and consistently going backwards every year, I feel for you guys. I know that _"just WTF are you DOING?!"_ feeling all too well. I trust your leadership will get it together sooner rather than later, at this point they're 100% in damage control mode so they'll probably start behaving like serious people.
Smooth transition into your sponsor there. That made me laugh. Thank you, that was very funny.
Is it time to bring in Big Sam? ⚽️
Charles Walker's expression being described in most British media as something along the lines of "absolutely furious" is probably the very pinnacle of Britishness. The man really only looked slightly annoyed to the rest of us.
Very nicely presented.
I guess to Truss the pm pension is worth it more than her reputation in the current political sphere and in history. Fucking horrific. You'd think that a politician would wanna become pm to leave a good mark and a good influence on the country, but according to Truss that doesn't matter.

@@jeremymanson1781 Well I didn't say she was the nicest person, she's still a politician as well as he. Just she seems the most genuine out of the tory leaders the past decade.
I gotta say, the fact that I can't binge this spin-off series from "Brexit" is driving me crazy. The daily cliffhangers are AMAZING!
Great video
I am always impressed by how quick you guys make content, but also feel kinda bad for you - it must be chaos at the break neck speed politics changes in this country! Thanks for keeping us informed :)
Well, I don’t think anyone is going to beat this speedrun, second place is a massive 75 days slower. What a WR Truss has set
Given the current situation in the UK, I could easily see her record being surpassed. A PM who got a shorter run due to
A) forcible replacement in an anti-government coup
B) assassination (whether by an angry citizen or a foreign agent bent on destabilizing the country further) or
C) committing suicide in office at the hopelessness of it all
would certainly count, right?
Canadian chiming in: has there been any PM within the entire history of the Commonwealth/Empire who has served a shorter term? Our record is 68 days.
Truss wasn't in office, she was in The Office.
Boris Johnson coming back would be a hell of a meme
They gonna make a new TV series "No, Prime Minister" with an iceberg lettuce as the chaotic AM/PM Miz Trust, Mirror image man Bernard Mensah, the president of international for Bank of America as Quasi Quartermaster, Boris Becker as a disgraced former celebrity with unruly blond hair and Prince Charles making a cameo as "The King", plus a cast of 1,000s of guest stars as the revolving minister of the day... potentially compulsive viewing, let's hope it can last at least a season
Apparently they've set the bar for eligibility a lot higher this time - 100 backers needed instead of 20. That should cut down the filtering process. Not that it'll make much difference, the time has come to break out the saying once more: when you have a deck of jokers, it doesn't matter which card you draw next.
This looks so like a kindergarden group in a pub.
It's astonishing that they actually get work done there.
Fascinating to see what goes on in these emerging market nations.
Very good
That's one way to get your name into history books, i guess))
Where do they dig these characters up from?
Hearing this just has me thinking wtf are the brits doing? If the PMs put forth by the coalition keep resigning then obviously there need to be new elections.
Wow that was brief 😳
44 days and the title is 'finally'.. love it
That transition from the feature to the ad was... Brilliant! 😁
"I am not a quitter" - Liz Truss
"I'm a loser!"
I wouldn't say a majority want a Labour government, I'd say the majority want rid of the tories and see Labour as a means of achieving it.
That's how all change of governments work in a democracy the world over isn't it?
@@Thermalions Unfortunately yes in many instances. But it's not all and it's relatively new here in the UK. Up until very recently most believed all major parties had the basic ability to function. We were choosing based on ideologies and various other lies, not if they could actually do their jobs.
It'd be nice if in multi-party democracies you had the option of voting against a party. So often, people will have 1 party that they absolutely do NOT want to win & then just kinda shrug their shoulders at the rest of the possible choices. This would allow people to express that.
@@dgthe3 ^ Great idea.
Hope everyone is enjoying Brexit😃 UK’s biggest problem was definitely those immigrants… not the politicians. Cheers!🥂🍻
I love the sarcasm xD

Here’s an idea, reduce MP salaries to weed out the talentless and self serving corrupt individuals.
That would have the opposite effect.
My god, that was the least confident vote of confidence I've ever seen. It was so cowardly it stopped being a vote of confidence!
The lettuce did indeed last longer!
THE LETTUCE STANDS VICTORIOUS OVER TRUSS
May, Johnson and now Truss gone in just a few years, what a mess the UK has become.
Yesterday I was pleased, but above all relieved, that the witless Munchkin that had masqueraded as PM was going. I dared to hope for an improvement and a return to sanity. This morning I awoke to news that the most likely replacement is the most corrupt, venal, mendacious and dishonest politician in British history. In what dystopian, dysfunctional parallel universe could the Tories re-crown him for the very characteristics for which he was ejected in disgrace and dishonor 100 days ago.
George Canning at least had an excuse though. He literally died.
Western Europe needs a strong UK. I wish all my British friends well, may you prosper in the future.
Or maybe Western Europeans countries like France, Germany should take advantage of the situation and try to attract investments out of UK into their own economies. If I were an investor, I would be more confident in doing business in France, Germany, the Netherlands even in these uncertain times
