(ANSA) - LONDON, SEPTEMBER 06 - Liz Truss is in the Royal residence of Balmoral for the formal designation by the 96-year-old Queen Elizabeth as the new British Prime Minister and the so-called "hand kissing" ceremony (which can be a bow or a handshake) to Her Majesty.

The new Tory leader, 47, who succeeded Boris Johnson, thus becomes the first minister number 15 in the seven decades of Elizabeth's reign, the 56th in the history of the island since the office was established.

In the afternoon, you return to London, you will take possession of the Downing Street residence with a short speech and then begin to formalize the appointments of ministers.
