On 20 October 2022, amid a continuing economic and political crisis, Truss announced her intention to resign as Prime Minister.

Installed by the UK's Conservative Party just last month, after her predecessor Boris Johnson was dramatically ousted, Truss had been in office less than six weeks before beginning the dizzying economic roller coaster she has been largely blamed for. But since her first days, some have said her days on the job are numbered. Turns out that the number of days Truss had was 45, making her the shortest-serving prime minister in British history.

Joining us to talk about the ever-changing political landscape of the UK is Adlea Suliman, Breaking News Reporter at the Washington Post, based in London.
