Which will last the longest – British PM Liz Truss’ time in office, or a head of lettuce?

That’s the cheeky question being posed by a British tabloid, as speculation over the new PM’s leadership continues to mount.

The Daily Star has live-streamed the decline of a head of unrefrigerated lettuce on YouTube for four days, suggesting Ms Truss’ premiership might be the first to expire.

The gag began when the publication posted a Twitter poll on Saturday asking its readers: “Will Liz Truss still be PM within the 10-day shelf life of our lettuce?”
