8. Much worse than Anthony Eden

She only lasted 50 days, making her Britain's shortest tenured prime minister.

Her financially illiterate mini budget crashed the UK economy and the Conservative Party that was daft enough to choose her over Rishi Sunak quickly ousted her.

Liz Truss is a very strong candidate for Britain's worst ever prime minister. And the other candidates for that dubious honour have mostly held the position in the last 10 years. You have to go back to the likes of Lord North (PM during the American war of independence) to find PM's as bad as Boris Johnson, Theresa May, Truss and Sunak.
