About this listen
Liz Truss's disastrous premiership was the shortest and most chaotic in British history. In the space of just 49 days, Truss witnessed the death of the longest-reigning monarch, attempted to remould the economy, triggered a collapse in the value of Sterling and was forced on a series of embarrassing U-turns that ultimately led to her resignation. The aftershocks of her time in office are still felt today. How did she blow her opportunity so spectacularly?
Based on exclusive interviews with key aides, allies and insiders, and focusing on the critical steps that led to her demise, this gripping behind-the-scenes work of contemporary history gives the definitive account of Truss's premiership.

A horror story - gripping yet scary
Brilliantly researched, structured and written. Amazing that Seldon can fill a book with the events of of Truss' premiership given how brief it was. I couldn't write 400 page on any 6 week period of my life; and I was there! It's a sobering warning on not heeding warnings. Or when self belief morphs into self delusion. Politicians and other leaders need to read this and thank Anthony Seldon (and Liz Truss) for providing excellent guidance on how not to fluff it up.

The detail .
An absolutely brilliant book. I enjoyed every word. I must now return to the other books in this series about other Prime Ministers.

not as traumatic to re-live as I feared
a very fair and well-sourced traipse through the short hell that was the Trussell premiership.

Well written but toe curling subject matter.
Well written, although it’s hard to fathom the claim that she is intelligent, as the criteria were not defined. Would have been interesting to analyse the capability of the Tory party voters who voted for her, as the qualities described in this book were clearly evident before her election. Also what on earth was Cameron thinking to bring her into government? It is said that the electorate get the government they deserve….

Compelling and well researched
Anthony Seldon and collaborator again comes with the definitive portrait of a Prime Minister. Liz Truss comes across as intelligent and not without likeable qualities but seems hopelessly out of her depth at the pinnacle of power. Based on exhaustive 120 interviews and released official documents, the book should be regarded as definitive.

Hilarious and Terrifying
Alan Partridge audio books are my favourite comedy books, this one however also made me laugh out loud whilst at the same time sending shivers down my spine. Partridge doesn’t exist. Truss does and I suspect she thinks she’ll make a return to public life. All British people should read this so we can experience things with our eyes open.
