British Prime Minister Liz Truss on Thursday dramatically announced her resignation just six weeks after taking office.
Truss bowed to the inevitable after her right-wing platform of tax cuts disintegrated and as many MPs among the ruling Conservatives revolted.
Speaking in Downing Street, Truss said she would stay on as prime minister until a successor is chosen to serve as Tory leader.
