Liz Truss Gives The Internet A 'Gift Of A GIF' For The Ages On Fox News

Liz Truss has gone viral yet again after she was captured on camera making an unfortunate blunder while trying to promote her controversial new book.

The former prime minister, who has a reputation for making rather unfortunate gaffes, went on the right-wing US TV channel Fox News to talk about her volume, Ten Years To Save The West.

Only, she failed to hold it up the right way.

First, she held up to the camera back-to-front, and then she held it upside-down.

And while the whole unfortunate moment may have lasted a mere 10 seconds – and there is a whole host of other Truss debacles to dissect – the internet really, really did not want to let this one slide.

Of course – as with any Truss appearances – references to the lettuce which outlasted her time in office popped up in a range of forms.

And others could not help but refer back to her previous (arguably iconic) slip-ups, such as her very strong pronunciation of the word “disgrace” when talking about cheese...

Some were just in disbelief at how she continued to out-do herself with her public appearances...

This peculiar moment is actually just the latest to emerge from her efforts to promote her book.

She dubbed anyone who thinks she crashed the UK economy through her disastrous mini-budget “very stupid or very malevolent” (despite evidence to the contrary).

She also said for the Supreme Court to be abolished, and released an eyebrow-raising video where she called herself “the only conservative in the room”.
