THE SIGNATURE & Human Hand-grenade:

Ms Truss’s extravagant signature on a letter to Mr Kwarteng also raised many eyebrows.

The looping handwriting was notably different to Ms Truss’s signature in 2020, which had a more muted approach.

Handwriting expert Tracey Trussell, speaking on behalf of family history brand Findmypast, has analysed the two scrawlings.

She told Metro.co.uk: ‘Her signature today is much less contrived and showcasing mixed messages.

‘Her surname Truss remains vertical (and the letter size diminishes), so she’s trying to convey an air of cool, poised, unflappable impartiality and diplomacy.

‘However, her Christian name continues to reveal unfulfilled aspirations. It is freer, wilder, bent on a mission. It is also strongly inclined – falling forwards – revealing her knee-jerk tendency to act first and think after.’

Ms Trussell suggested that the extravagant signature could in fact signal a sign of imposter syndrome.
