Liz Truss ignores one factor she’s well-known for in failed PM’s ‘deranged’ new e-book

Lettuce-Loathing Liz Truss has managed to write an entire book about her downfall without mentioning the leafy vegetable that outlasted her.

The former PM’s latest literary offering, Bank Job, is a 94-page rant about the people she claims are to blame for her car crash spell in Downing Street.

But there’s not a single mention of the Daily Star’s world-famous lettuce, which became the symbol of her spectacular wilting. Our trusty 60p iceberg famously outlasted the Tory leader after we challenged it to survive longer than her premiership.

And while the lettuce went on to become a global superstar, poor Liz was booted out after just 49 days in Number 10.

Now she’s back with a book settling old scores, pointing the finger at the Bank of England, civil servants, journalists and even fellow Tories.

But the former PM appears to have developed a severe case of selective memory when it comes to her salad-based humiliation.

Critics delivered a savage verdict, branding her attempt to justify her economic policies “preposterous”. They accused her of refusing to accept responsibility for the chaos unleashed by her disastrous mini-budget, which sent financial markets into turmoil.

One book boff described her work as “without question the most deranged” he had ever reviewed.

But Loopy Liz insists she was the victim of powerful shady figures who conspired to bring down her government.

She wrote on X: “The establishment attacks on me are getting more and more deranged.

“I note they are not attacking on the basis of facts and evidence.”

One internet wag replied with an AI image reimagining the book cover with the title ‘Nut Job’.

Another said: “How do I order zero copies please?”

One more branded her a “delusional idiot” while another wrote: “I’m glad to see you don’t fall into the trap of overthinking things…”
