Liz Truss's Hilarious Memoir Reveals Flea Infestation at Downing Street

Boris Johnson - Liz Truss - Prime Minister - Queen Elizabeth II - UK politics

Former PM Liz Truss unveils shocking details about fleas in Downing Street in her memoir. Find out the bizarre reason behind the infestation!

Downing Street may have seen its fair share of drama, but according to Liz Truss, it was infested with fleas during her short-lived tenure as the Prime Minister. Truss alleges that Boris Johnson's dog Dilyn may have been the culprit behind the pesky infestation, causing chaos in Number 10. Amidst the chaos, Truss was 'ecstatic' about the mini-budget plan but ended up resigning after only 44 days in office.

In a British farce fit for a comedy show, Truss's revelations include a missing Ocado delivery at Downing Street, adding a touch of humor to the political turmoil. Her memoir, 'Ten Years to Save the West,' sheds light on behind-the-scenes stories, including her encounters with the Queen and the shocking revelation that she considered sacking Bank of England leaders.

Truss's candid confessions in her book bring to light her disbelief and shock upon hearing about Queen Elizabeth II's passing. In a moment of introspection, she reflects on the 'why me, why now?' feeling that engulfed her after the Queen's death. Despite the challenges she faced during her brief time as PM, Truss's memoir offers a glimpse into the rollercoaster ride of her political journey.
