Original Note:
Truss again rails against the "unelected" here. She was chosen as party leader by just 81,326 paying members of the Conservative party. Then installed as PM by an unelected head of state. The UK had over 45 million registered voters at this time (45,157,575) https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/sep/05/liz-truss-wins-tory-leadership-race-to-become-britains-next-pm https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/research-reports-and-data/electoral-registration-research/electoral-registration-great-britain-2022#size-of-the-electoral-registers
