Liz Truss has announced her resignation as Prime Minister after just 44 days in office. Her resignation has fired the starting gun in a hastily organised race to replace her. Former Chancellor Rishi Sunak and leader of the Commons Penny Mordaunt are both expected to stand -- as is the former PM Boris Johnson.
