Liz Truss resigns as UK prime minister

Imagine rising to the ranks of prime minister of one of the most influential countries ever and for your legacy to be a head of lettuce out-survived your reign.

That the Queen literally died the day after meeting you.

Unbelievable.

I thought it was a Cabbage! - since 'cabbage' has a double-meaning in colloquial English meaning 'incapable' :D

I think the journalists(!?) missed a trick there.

Now if only there was an instrument to create legitimacy for leaders, something where the entire population could make their own choice heard in a binding way. We could call it election.
