This is some beautifully-executed satire.

Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss (whose reign lasted a mere 45 days) appeared at an event to promote her new book Ten Years to Save the West. As she was blathering on, activist group Led by Donkeys lowered a remote-controlled banner reading “I crashed the economy,” with a picture of the famous head of lettuce that outlasted her time in office.

Truss, like most conservative politicians, had no sense of humor about the event, and marched off the stage.

    If you have the audacity to write a book with such a grand title as “Ten Years to Save the West” then you shouldn’t have been in a position that a cabbage banner sporting a single factual statement can undermine you like that in the first place
