2022 Prime Minister's Resignation Honours (Liz Truss)
(Redirected from 2023 Prime Minister's Resignation Honours)
The 2022 Prime Minister's Resignation Honours were honours awarded following the resignation of Liz Truss as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in October 2022. Her resignation honours list was released on 29 December 2023, alongside the 2024 New Year Honours.[1] Opposition politicians criticised the list in light of Truss's brief tenure as prime minister, and had called on her successor Rishi Sunak to block its release.[1] Truss said that she was "delighted these champions for the conservative causes of freedom, limited government and a proud and sovereign Britain have been suitably honoured".[2] The list was gazetted on 7 February 2024.[3]
