Liz Truss left red-faced as pro-Trump speech interrupted by lettuce banner
Liz Truss was captured storming off stage during a book promotion event, after she was interrupted by a remote-controlled banner mocking the comparisons made between her and a lettuce.
The former prime minister was pledging her support for Donald Trump when the sign rolled out in the background, featuring a photo of a lettuce with googly eyes, which read: “I crashed the economy”.
Anti-government group Led By Donkeys have admitted it was them behind the stunt.
The lettuce references a campaign set up by the Daily Star, who attempted to see if a lettuce could last long than Truss’ 49 days in power.
