I feel slightly bad for Liz Truss, since I imagine that one of the things she will be remembered is that the Queen died less than 48 hours into her government.

It's interesting you bring this up as in my view Truss is the antithesis of Queen Elizabeth II. Truss is somebody that would say anything that people wanted to hear to be popular and amass political power whereas Queen Elizabeth refrained from staying anything people didn't want to hear to be dutifully detached from the fickleness of politics.
