Sir Keir Starmer poked fun at calls for Liz Truss to be replaced as prime minister by making a funny swipe about the potential title for a book about her time in office.

“A book is being written about the Prime Minister’s time in office. Apparently, it’s going to be out by Christmas. Is that the release date or the title?” the Labour leader quipped.

In response, Ms Truss said that she has delivered the energy price guarantee, reversed the National Insurance increase, and has taken steps to “crack down on militant unions.”

And people said Starmer has no charisma not only is he clearly the man to run the country he is also more funny than Boris or Truss combined!

Starmer might have thought Liz a little too highly

Out within a week would've been a more accurate title.

The worst pm in history, no finical acumen, zero, spooked the market eith her plans and we got hugh interest rates, driven million to despair mortgage misery, she has a hge EGO 44 days in office and writes a book, I wish her luck and hope her book goes straight to the charity shop. She deserves less, no pun intended against charity shops.

At 5 seconds he lacks a bit of comic timing. Needed a little pause and a nod to his benches but he couldn't remember his lines and looked at his notes.
