Liz Truss's disastrous premiership was the shortest and most chaotic in British history. In the space of just 49 days, Truss attempted to remould the economy, triggered a collapse in the value of Sterling and was forced into a series of embarrassing U-turns that ultimately led to her resignation. The aftershocks of her time in office are still felt today. How did she blow her opportunity so spectacularly?
Based on exclusive interviews with key aides, allies and insiders, bestselling political biographer Anthony Seldon provides a gripping behind-the-scenes work of contemporary history that gives the definitive account of how not to be prime minister.
