British Prime Minister Liz Truss has resigned after 44 days in office, the shortest in British history.
RELATED: Liz Truss to Parliament: ‘I am a fighter, not a quitter’
Liz Truss became the shortest-serving leader in British political history after she resigned Thursday less than two months into the job. Her announcement came after her attempt to roll out aggressive tax cuts aimed at spurring economic growth but which dramatically roiled financial markets, led to unprecedented central bank intervention and drove her poll ratings to the lowest ever recorded for a prime minister.
Truss, 47, lasted 44 days in office. Because Britain elects a party, not a specific leader, she will be replaced by another lawmaker from her ruling Conservative Party. The process to replace Truss will take place within the next week. Truss will remain as prime minister until then.
"I came into office at a time of great economic and international instability," Truss said in in a brief statement outside No. 10 Downing Street. "I recognize, given the situation, I cannot deliver the mandate to which I was elected by the Conservative Party."

Hi, JESUS is GOD, see John 1! You can’t forget to mention the cross and JESUS ultimate sin sacrifice!
She gave up how fast?? That’s a record
Wish these Cons did that for U.S. in our country!🤔
Jesus why’d everyone resigning now? No one’s had a full term since Cameron. what the hell is wrong with this whole system , why can’t we get a good priminister for once?
Despite the economic downturn,I’m so happy☺️. I have been earning $ 60,000 returns from my $7,000 investment every 13days.

I guess Trevor Noah was right lol
“I am a fighter and not a quitter” Couple hours after…resigns…Satan’s ministers deceiving the nations, knowing that they have little season (Revelation 20:3,8), before fire comes down from heaven and devour them (Revelation 20:9).
Britain’s shortest ever Prime Ministerial term of office!
Liz Truss has resigned…at this point I am surprised that they don’t just cut out the middle man and appoint Klaus Schwab as PM
