The Liz Truss Memoir


Listen Later

Today, we look at new revelations about the former PM’s 49 days in office.

Details from her soon-to-be-released book Ten Years to Save the West include her thoughts of "why me, why now?" when she was told that Queen Elizabeth II had died.

Comedian and Liz Truss impressionist Nerine Skinner brings the words to life.

Laura and Paddy also discuss Labour’s strategy around allegations that the party’s deputy leader Angela Rayner broke electoral law. She denies any wrongdoing.
