With the ascension of Liz Truss to the premiership of the UK, the Truss Company, makers of bespoke gentlemen's hernia garments, has experienced a spike in orders.
Many of these orders have come from foreign PMs and other high-ranking diplomats thinking that this will help them to win favor with the new PM.
For example, the Wild Finn (the Finnish PM), has ordered a set in different flourescent colours for use as party-wear.
A spokesperson for the Truss Company told FNN:
We thought there had suddently been an increase in hernias to account for the surge in orders. But now we realise that the new Prime Minister is behind it. We've had orders from all over, including the White House, the Kremlin and various rappers. Thanks Liz for making the humble truss cool!
A radical feminist commented:
Trusses are not limited to men or as we prefer to call them 'people with hernias'. Women and other genders can wear them too. We recommend wearing your truss as an outergarment to make a statement of support for the new female PM and to stop men fantasising about your undergarments.
