Tabloid Celebrates Lettuce Outlasting UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, Who Resigned After Disastrous 44 Days in Office
"UK Prime Minister Liz Truss announced her resignation on Thursday, making her the shortest-serving prime minister in British history.
Truss served at Number 10 for just 44 days, a staggeringly brief spate of time that saw her Tory party descend into chaos.
Her demise was so anticipated that last week, The Daily Star, a UK tabloid, introduced a live feed on YouTube of lettuce purchased from Tescos for less than a dollar. The video, introduced on Oct. 14, asked a simple question: “Will Liz Truss outlast this lettuce?”
The lettuce did, and on Thursday morning, the Star turned on disco lights on the live feed for a jubilant celebration of Truss’s resignation."
