Truss made the announcement a day after she defiantly declared that she is “a fighter and not a quitter.” Ultimately, however, she said that circumstances have changed.

“Given the situation, I cannot deliver the mandate on which I was elected by the Conservative Party,” Truss said. I have therefore spoken to His Majesty the King to notify him that I am resigning as leader of the Conservative Party.”

Truss said that a leadership election will take place “within the next week” and that she will stay on as prime minister “until a successor has been chosen.”

Truss’ announcement came soon after Home Secretary Suella Braverman resigned via a letter that slammed the prime minister. …

Braverman’s exit came days after Truss fired Treasury head Kwasi Kwarteng amid financial turmoil that included the British pound declining in value to be nearly equal to the U.S. dollar. The problems came after Truss’ administration pushed a tax cut plan in September, which Kwarteng’s replacement Jeremy Hunt scrapped in October. …

Truss will remain in power until the party chooses a replacement. That process could take weeks under current rules, which allow all party members to vote, although the party’s left wing is looking to change the rules to limit voting to members of Parliament. Such a change could mean Truss could be out within days.
