Liz Truss was the butt — or perhaps, vegetable head — of many jokes from Trevor Noah on Thursday night, after she resigned from her role as Britain’s Prime Minister less than two months after taking the job. As “The Daily Show” host put it, she didn’t even last as long as parties thrown by her predecessor.
Truss resigned on Thursday morning, just 44 days after taking office following the resignation of Boris Johnson. Johnson left his post after intense pressure to do so, based on his handling of COVID in the country, and going against his own guidelines regarding social distancing during the pandemic.
