Liz Truss will be entitled to claim £115,000 per year from the taxpayer despite becoming the shortest-serving Prime Minister in British history, APA reports.
Ms. Truss, who resigned after just 44 days in office, will be able to claim through the Public Duties Cost Allowance (PDCA) which allows former leaders to claim money back towards the cost of maintaining their activities in public life.
The PDCA was set up in 1991 to “assist former Prime Ministers” with Margaret Thatcher being the first beneficiary.
