> However long she now lasts in office, she is set to be remembered as the prime minister whose grip on power was the shortest. Ms Truss entered Downing Street on September 6th. She blew up her own government with a package of unfunded tax cuts and energy-price guarantees on September 23rd. Take away the ten days of mourning after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, and she had seven days in control. That is roughly the shelf-life of a lettuce.
Daily Star ran a live feed of a head of lettuce to see which would last longer.[ The lettuce won](https://youtu.be/Sm-RE95lKJ0).
Dear, oh dear
God save the green.
We should all be impressed! She completed the PM speed run in less then a lettuce. I’m green with envy 🤢
>”I am a fighter not a quitter”
Lord Buckethead, Count Binface, and Lettuce will be in the next government.
