Liz Truss Resignation Honours List Sparks Criticism

Britain's shortest-serving prime minister Liz Truss has unveiled her resignation honours list, nominating several political supporters and former aides for seats in the House of Lords. The list includes Conservative donor Jon Moynihan, ex-Vote Leave chief Matthew Elliott, and Ruth Porter, among others. The move has sparked criticism from some who view it as a reward for failure and an insult to the public. There are calls to do away with resignation honours altogether, as they bring the wider honours system into disrepute. Notably, the list also includes special advisers and political figures who supported Truss during her brief time in office.
