Richard Osman managed to spot some hilarious Liz Truss shade on a recent episode of Pointless.
The former British prime minister became the UK’s shortest-serving prime minister in 2022 after she was ousted a mere 44 days in the job.
A disastrous mini-budget resulted in her chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng, being given his marching orders before Truss followed him out of the door shortly after.
It set the backdrop for a hilarious Daily Star stunt in which a lettuce managed to outlast a prime minister.
Her short spell in charge has also led to some memory loss among the British public, as evidenced by a recent episode of Pointless.
Taking to BlueSky, Richard Osman was able to share this very funny question involving the ex-PM, pointing out that just 45 in 100 people were able to name the 2022 British prime minister with a 5-letter surname starting with T.
That’s not even one person for each day she was in office – which says a lot!
Fewer than half of British people can name the 2022 British PM with a 5-letter surname starting with T. Politics can be more brutal than showbusiness sometimes.
