Former Prime Minister Liz Truss appeared on Nick Ferrari’s LBC radio show and discussed how she and her family organise their Christmas Day dinner. The host asked her who cooks the turkey at her home, to which she confirmed that she and her husband both get involved. But when questioned on how that works, she told the host that they take “different bits” of the bird.
Ferrari raised his hand and said in his home he cooks everything, prompting Truss to say: “He’ll probably deal with the actual turkey, but we haven’t yet decided that.” Ferrari then asked a question, the answer to which left him utterly bewildered, as he asked: “What do you do then? Do you do the spuds? Do you do the Yorkshires?” Truss responded: “Yeah I do the spuds,” before defiantly adding: “There are no Yorkshires.”

She shook her head and added: “I don’t believe in that for Christmas Day.” He fumed: “Hang on, you’ve got Yorkshire background!” But it turns out, Truss has a rule that Yorkshire puddings are only to be made with roast beef.
Truss said: “I don’t believe it should go with turkey. I think that’s wrong.” However, she did confirm one British tradition would still be in their household which was that a glass of champagne and orange juice would be consumed early in the day.
Her comments left viewers divided as one user wrote it was a “disgrace”, while others would have shocked Ferrari just as much, given multiple listeners agreed with her.
One wrote: “Sorry, Liz is correct. Yorkshire pudding only with beef, never with anything else.” Another added: “To be fair, for once, Liz Truss is correct. Yorkies don’t go on a Christmas dinner.”
Another said: “That’s the most sensible thing I’ve ever heard her say. There should be no Yorkshire pudding with Christmas dinner. Nor cauliflower cheese!”
The debate will rumble on but Ferrari appears to sit firmly in the camp that Yorkshires deserve a spot on a Christmas Day dinner plate as much as the turkey or Brussels sprouts.
