Liz Truss has sent a legal letter to Keir Starmer demanding he stops making “false and defamatory” claims that she crashed the economy.

The former prime minister sent a six-page “cease and desist” letter accusing Starmer of harming her reputation and contributing to her losing her South West Norfolk seat in the general election.

    Of all the people to send an unenforceable cease and desist letter to LMAO

    I’d think the ex Barrister, Queens Counsel (basically a group of exceptionally talented senior lawyers) lawyer, and ex director of public prosecutions for the CPS would be someone you’d think hm, I probably can’t intimidate him in this manner. Truss never ceases to amaze me.

    My mind can’t even begin to imagine how good Starmer’s legal defence team would be.

    Of all PMs, he is surely the one you’d be insane to enter a legal battle with.
