Liz Truss has lost her seat in Norfolk (Image: PA)
Liz Truss displayed "genuine disbelief" as she learned she had lost her South West Norfolk seat to Labour this morning, according to a body language expert.
Darren Stanton, speaking on behalf of OLBG, said the former prime minister gave away her true feelings after being humiliated and losing her 26,000 seat majority with non-verbal cues.

He said Ms Truss was "away with the fairies" as the returning officer read out the results.
He told Express.co.uk: "When they released her figures, her blink rate increased, and there was a shift in emotion, which I would say is genuine disbelief, surprise and wanting to get away from there as soon as possible. She shook hands with one person and then she was gone. Sky News wanted a reaction from her but she disappeared."

Mr Stanton added: "I think she shows via her reactions that, in her heart she knew she was going. It goes a long way to show how she feels about her constituents, the fact she turned up late, basically disappeared.
He also noted that her "fake smile" and "blink rate" gave away that she was suffering at the embarrassment.
The expert went on to say that "when people make the effort to remain stoic and still it shows they’re trying to focus on something else, her emotions show a great disconnect."

Ms Truss was one of many senior Tories to lose their seats in last night's bloodbath of an election.
In total, 12 cabinet ministers were defeated - a record - including Defence Secretary Grant Shapps and Commons leader Penny Mordaunt.
There were however some Tory big beasts that clung on including party chairman Richard Holden, who won his seat by 20 votes, and soon to be ex-Chancellor Jeremy Hunt who held off the Lib Dems by less than 1000.
