I propose that List of departures from the Truss ministry (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) be merged into this article. As it is a short list and Truss has already resigned, there is no need for a separate list. -- 65.92.247.226 (talk) 15:34, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

Please voice your support, opposition, alternative proposals, or concerns about this proposal in this section. Any voice supporting or opposing the proposal should be attached to a rationale explaining their position.

• Support I am the nominator of this proposal. I support my own propsal -- 65.92.247.226 (talk) 15:42, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
• Speedy support This should never have been a separate article in the first place. It's a subarticle of the main and a split was not warranted in the absence of length or content issues. Reywas92^Talk 16:15, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
• Support In complete agreement w/ Reywas92 -- Svenskbygderna (talk) 16:31, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
• Support echoing the reasons listed by Reywas92; this article is not substantive enough to warrant its own article -- LemonOrangeLime (talk) 20:08, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
• Support...this should be a no-brainer. InvadingInvader (talk) 20:55, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
• Support I don't think any arguments could be made against this proposal. Keivan.f^Talk 21:54, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
• Support This in addition to the List of visits one, article was made out of WP:CRYSTALBALL, assuming that it would need to be seperated eventually. DecafPotato (talk) 00:13, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
• Support per Reywas92; not substantive enough to warrant a split from the main article. Furthermore, with Truss shortly leaving office herself, the chances this list will expand to the point where it is as substantive as similar articles like List of departures from the second Johnson ministry is unlikely. Willsteve2000 (talk) 03:41, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
• Support this would easily fit on the target page and I am not sure that this list of departures has the same lasting significance as the departures from Johnson's government earlier in the year. Toadspike (talk) 00:03, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

FYI, there is a similar proposal for List of international prime ministerial trips made by Liz Truss that is being discussed at talk:Premiership of Liz Truss. -- 65.92.247.226 (talk) 15:42, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

FYI, there is a similar proposal for Trussonomics that is occurring at talk:Trussonomics -- 65.92.247.226 (talk) 04:18, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

Comment needing clarification?

The opening of the article correctly says that Liz Truss' resignation announcement made "her tenure the shortest in British history". While her time as Prime Minister is the shortest (as two cases were a Prime Minister - William Pulteney, 1st Earl of Bath in 1746 and James Waldegrave, 2nd Earl Waldegrave in 1757 - was appointed for a matter of days, but failed to form a government are generally not considered to have been actual premierships - see List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom by length of tenure), it might be worth noting here that this is not the shortest ministry in history. Even assuming Bath's two day Short-lived ministry is ignored for the reasons stated earlier , the Wellington caretaker ministry, at less than a month in 1834, was shorter. I wonder if this should be pointed out clearly in the article? Dunarc (talk) 21:53, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
