Current Affairs Liz Truss

[hirons11]

Who managed to be in charge when the longest raining monarch (also called Liz) died.

Strange world.

That’s going to be a popular quiz question some time in the future

Nope. Just the PM. AFAIK anyrate. Maybe some of the high offices perhaps, but the original reason was what I posted.

Pretty sure all johnsons cronies that didn't make trusses cabinet got around a quarter of their annual salary as pay off

They get 3 months pay. Same as the PM, who also gets an additional £115k expenses.
I thought the ex PM's got a yearly pay, but apparently not.

Pretty sure an ex PM gets a full final salary pension for life. No matter how long they were in the job.

I know the US President does, but not our PM, according to the cabinet office.
I could be wrong and maybe it is yearly, but it doesn't read that way.

Fairly certain the £115k is yearly

Maybe it changed in 2013. Bit as far as I could see, that was about the instant lump sums on leaving office.

I read about this earlier this week. They can claim 115k yearly as some form of "expenses". But they don't have to provide any receipts to evidence where its going as its not regulated like MP expenses. Reportedly, Blair claims every last penny of it.

They also get police protection and a chauffeur driven car.

Self interest before the country’s interest
