How much has Liz Truss made since leaving No. 10?
Two and a half years have passed since Liz Truss entered – and swiftly exited – Downing Street. The former prime minister has not laid low since then, however, keeping busy by setting up the 'PopCons', releasing her memoir and appearing at CPAC alongside Steve Bannon. Yet while the ex-PM will be remembered by the history books for her short but eventful time in politics, her post-parliamentary career is not quite as lucrative as those of her predecessors. The latest financial statement from her eponymous company reveals that in the year up until March 2025, the Disruptor-in-Chief had just £112,657 in net assets – some way off the sums made by the likes of Theresa May and others. The accounts show that Truss took only £8,000 more than the previous year – despite publishing her memoir Ten Years to Save the West last April. It comes after Britain's shortest-serving premier signed up to the same agency as her predecessor Boris Johnson, Chartwell Speakers. Johnson secured a £2.5 million advance for several well-paid speaking events, earning £5 million within his first year out of the top job, while the Maybot raked in more than £400,000 for six talks after stepping down.

Andy Murray in sudden split from Novak Djokovic
Andy Murray's management have announced that he is no longer working with all-time tennis great Novak Djokovic, after four tournaments and six months of on-off collaboration. Sources suggested that it was a mutual decision taken in the light of Djokovic's struggles this season. Advertisement The partnership shocked the tennis world when it was announced in November, and the two men seemed to settle into a profitable partnership during January's Australian Open, where Djokovic produced a performance for the ages to defeat Carlos Alcaraz. Since then, however, Djokovic's 2025 has been a thoroughly mixed bag. He made a run to the final of Miami in late March but also lost his opening match at four other events. Then he withdrew from the Internazionali BNL D'Italia in Rome, which would normally be the main build-up event to the upcoming French Open. Footage also emerged of Djokovic ranting into his towel during a practice session in Madrid, where he suffered his most recent defeat against Matteo Arnaldi. This was one of the four tournaments where Murray has accompanied him this season, along with Australia, Miami and Indian Wells. 'F--- this sport, f--- tennis, f---everything,' grumbled Djokovic. Novak Djokovic was knocked out of the Madrid Open by Matteo Arnaldi - Getty Images/Tiziana Fabi Murray had been expected to work with Djokovic at Roland Garros, where the Serbian is a three-time former French Open champion. And then, it had seemed as though his most important contribution would probably come during the brief grass-court season that culminates in Wimbledon: the tournament where he had his greatest success. Advertisement Such expectations must now be shelved, after a brief statement in which both players offered short expressions of gratitude. Djokovic said 'Thank you, coach Andy, for all the hard work, fun and support over last six months on and off the court, really enjoyed deepening our friendship together.' Murray replied 'Thanks to Novak for the unbelievable opportunity to work together and thanks to his team for all their hard work over the past six months. I wish Novak all the best for the rest of the season.' The announcement comes a day after it emerged that Murray – who has previously admitted to having a 'boring monotone voice' – has joined the books of Chartwell Speakers, a London-based agency for motivational speakers. Other names on the list include former Labour leader Gordon Brown, running legend Mo Farah and TV interviewer Graham Norton. Broaden your horizons with award-winning British journalism.
