The new prime minister: a) an incompetent and mediocre thermonuclear [[Russophobe]] who does not have elementary ideas about politics, history, geography, but wants to defeat Russia in everything; b) pretends to be Margaret Thatcher, not having even 5 percent of her abilities; c) expects to overcome the energy crisis and food inflation, which became a consequence of her own delusional sanctions exercises. She will quarrel with everyone, fail everything and leave in disgrace, like her predecessor, the shaggy Boriska. Well, in Britain, famous for its traditions, it seems there is another one."}}
 
==Resignation==
 
Despite controversy surrounding her position on the Russia-Ukraine War, Truss quickly became more embroiled in domestic problems; her budget proposals provoked severe infighting within the Tory Party, as advocates of higher spending to make up for Britain's slumping economy clashed with those calling for [[supply-side]] policies to promote growth. After Truss repeatedly reversed herself on several budgetary items, creating the impression of a rudderless government, numerous MPs began expressing a lack of confidence in her ability to continue as prime minister, while polls showed Labour with an increasingly large lead in the next general election.
 
After meeting with her deputy prime minister, Therese Coffey, and Tory party chair Jake Berry, and being told that she could no longer count on the support of a majority of Conservative MPs, Truss submitted her resignation to the [[Charles III|King]] on Thursday, October 20. Only 44 days had elapsed since her appointment as prime minister. In her announcement of the news, she stated "I cannot deliver on the mandate....I will remain as PM until a successor has been chosen."<ref>[https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11336361/Truss-QUITS-PM-admits-carry-crisis-talks.html Liz Truss resigns as Prime Minister after just 44 days].
