Liz Truss resigns as prime minister after 44 days

This is reported by Sky News with reference to Truss's statement.

“I recognise, though, given the situation, I cannot deliver the mandate on which I was elected by the Conservative Party,” Liz Truss said.

Ms Truss said: “I came into office at a time of great economic and international instability.”

It is known that Liz Truss served as Prime Minister for a little over a month. Before that, Truss was the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Her predecessor - Boris Johnson - announced his resignation on July 7.

She has been criticized for the new economic plan, which provided for the support of the population with money in response to rising electricity and heat prices in connection with Vladimir Putin's energy war against Europe.  The plan cost around a quarter of a trillion pounds, and panic set in among those who invested their own and other people's money in the British economy. Ultimately, the plan scared off investors and failed.

• On October 16, The Guardian reported that the British conservatives will consider the possible resignation of Truss from the post of prime minister.  Defense Secretary Ben Wallace is named among possible successors.
