Spoof job advert for UK Prime Minister seeks people lacking “moral fortitude”

"No previous experience necessary."

Comedy duo Larry & Paul have put out a new spoof ad inviting people to apply for the vacant position of UK prime minister. On Thursday, Liz Truss resigned from the position after just 44 days in the job, making her the shortest-serving Prime Minister in British history. Her resignation came after some of the most chaotic and tumultuous days ever seen in the UK Parliament. Wednesday saw Suella Braverman leave her role as Home Secretary, followed by confusion over whether the chief whip had resigned and reports of bullying and manhandling in the parliamentary lobby over a vote on fracking. Meanwhile, the previous few weeks in office saw the Prime Minister sack her chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng just weeks after he had implemented her financial plan in the UK Government's disastrous mini-budget. She then announced that Jeremy Hunt would be the new chancellor, someone who has publicly disagreed with Truss' economic strategy of tax cuts and made this clear by putting her mini-budget through the shredder. The whole debacle has been a source of comedy to many, including Larry & Paul who argue in their spoof ad below that most people could probably do a better job as UK Prime Minister.
