Average internet users, a member of parliament and even the Swedish Prime Minister, etc. Since the election of Liz Truss as head of the British government, an almost namesake has received many messages on Twitter, to which she responds with humor. “Congratulations to @Liztruss who will take on the role of Prime Minister of the United Kingdom,” Magdalena Andersson, Swedish Prime Minister, tweeted on Monday after the announcement of Liz Truss’s victory as leader of the ruling Conservative Party.
Only, behind this account is not hiding the future head of the British government – her official Twitter account is @trussliz – but a certain Liz Trussel who has barely 100 subscribers and had hardly published anything on the social network since 2018.
Faced with the avalanche of messages identifying him wrongly, the Internet user has decided to respond with humor. “I look forward to coming to visit you soon! Prepare the meatballs, ”she replied to Magdalena Andersson, who deleted her message before publishing a corrected version identifying the new conservative leader.
A petition for her to be elected Prime Minister
Caroline Lucas, a Green MP, made the same mistake, criticizing the future Prime Minister and calling her arrival in Downing Street a “disaster”. Realizing the confusion, the congresswoman published a second tweet apologizing, “although frankly, she (Liz Trussell) would surely do a better job in this position”. “I’m in! Las Vegas for everyone, ”replied the interested party.
While Liz Truss is expected in Scotland this afternoon where she is to meet Queen Elizabeth II and officially become the new head of government, Liz Trussel said on Twitter “to be on the way” to meet the monarch and “can’t wait to see the corgis », the queen’s favorite dogs.
On Twitter, amused Internet users asked for a petition for her to be elected Prime Minister. “Please, can we have him as Prime Minister instead?” “, thus begged a user.
