The new Tory leader tweets as @trussliz rather than @liztruss, so it was almost inevitable some would end up congratulating Liz Trussell
It never happened to Winston Churchill or Margaret Thatcher, but Liz Truss will begin her time as prime minister with some confusion about her identity among some, including a prime minister, who were keen to offer their congratulations on social media.
As soon as Truss won the race to become Tory leader and the new prime minister, Sweden’s prime minister Magdalena Andersson tweeted a message of goodwill to @liztruss.
