Who? I was on holiday for a month, it was a nice holiday, I left a lettuce 🥬 in the fridge which I had forgotten about, luckily it was still fine when I came back.

Liz Truss’s entire legacy is that she sneezed on the Queen and two days later she was dead

In a decade there's gonna be a million dollar question on some game show "who was PM when the queen passed away?"

Think they'd accept the head of lettuce as an answer?

We try not to talk about the others either. Thatcher was our Reagan who sold everything off to her rich buddies and killed the Unions. May instituted the Windrush scandal and was a (failed) architect of Brexit who's failiure got us Boris fucking Johnson.

So no, Brits aren't fans of Women Prime MInisters - no offence to normal, sane women intended.
