"Effigy of Liz Truss with lettuce to be burned at Edenbridge bonfire night
Huge effigy bearing slogan ‘I am a fighter, not a quitter’ will be burned on 5 November as part of annual tradition
An effigy of the former prime minister Liz Truss with a laughing lettuce on her shoulder has been unveiled as this year’s celebrity Guy by the Edenbridge Bonfire Society, in Kent.
The 11-metre-high effigy will be burned on Guy Fawkes Night on 5 November in line with Edenbridge’s annual tradition of picking a public figure to ridicule.
The lettuce on Truss’s shoulder, which is crying with laughter, refers to a livestream of a lettuce run by the Daily Star that correctly predicted the vegetable would last longer than Truss did in office.
The figure of Truss is clutching a cardboard box containing a goodbye card, a copy of Guinness World Records in reference to her record as the shortest-serving prime minister, a copy of her mini-budget, a “make Britain great again” red cap, a T-shirt with the slogan “I am a fighter, not a quitter” and a cheque for £115,000 in reference to the perpetual funding provided to ex-prime ministers."
