But is it a promotion, or a poisoned chalice?

Liz Truss has done another photoshoot. Who does this one remind you of?

The Tory foreign secretary contributed to a warning sent to Putin that there will be "massive consequences" if Russia invades Ukraine.

Earlier today a defence minister told parliament a nuclear war with Russia over Ukraine would be “a very unwelcome outcome”.

It comes as Liz Truss, UK’s foreign secretary, said this weekend that Putin has to intervene in the “shameful manufactured migrant crisis” unfolding at the Belarusian border. 

Liz Truss said Russia has a “clear responsibility” to end the escalating migrant stand-off between Belarus and Poland, adding the UK “will not look away”.

Truss was also told: "when the French don't play ball we want to take our toys home?"

“This is just what the government does time after time: blatant lies with no consequences and still no correction. It's shameless,” shadow secretary for international trade Emily Thornberry said about the post-Brexit deal hailed by Truss.

The UK wants to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership.
