Former UK high commissioner George Brandis says UK Prime Minister Liz Truss hasn’t “sought the limelight” since Queen Elizabeth II’s passing.

Mr Brandis said Ms Truss has started “very well”.

“Prime Minister Truss won’t have been sort of in the mental space for this when it happened, but I think she has lent dignity and humanity to the occasion,” he told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
