New Delhi: <\/b>
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tUK Prime Minister Liz Truss today said that she is resigning as prime minister, announcing that her successor will be elected by the end of next week. Truss’s mini-budget, which sent shockwaves through the markets, was responsible for her downfall. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

    Liz Truss’s woes began when her showpiece tax-slashing policy sparked market chaos that threatened the country’s pension funds, forcing her into a series of humiliating U-turns.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    The moves, aimed at reviving the UK economy, had divided her Conservative Party just 45 days after she was appointed.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Liz Truss’s departure<\/a> leaves the ruling Conservative Party badly damaged, languishing more than 30 points behind Labour in the polls after 12 1\/2 years in power.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Her successor will become the party’s fifth premier in less than seven years since the 2016 Brexit referendum ushered in a period of unprecedented chaos in British politics.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  5. \n

    Labour leader Keir Starmer, whose opposition party has surged in opinion polls on the back of Truss’s short, crisis-plagued tenure, demanded for an immediate general election.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  6. \n

    The outgoing prime minister announced that an election to choose her successor would be completed within the next week.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  7. \n

    “We’ve agreed that there will be a leadership election to be completed within the next week,” she said, after senior backbench MP Graham Brady told her the game was up.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  8. \n

    Conservative leader Jeremy Hunt has announced that he will not run for the prime minister.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  9. \n

    One of the probable names that is expected to feature in the elections is Rishi Sunak, who Liz Truss defeated in this summer’s elections.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  10. \n

    If he wins, Rishi Sunak would be the first Indian-origin person to hold the UK Prime Minister’s office.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
