Liz Truss on the front of a newspaper today

In my opinion she only got the PM job because she was white and the Tory blue rinses wouldn't vote for Sunak. Worst PM we've ever had.

Obviously very thick skinned.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

She’s been spending time in the States, frolicking with kindred spirits and the upshot of it all is, she’ll form/run a free market think tank here in the UK, which will certainly influence and shape politics. She’s determined to inflict her Trussonomics on us.

Surely nobody would touch this "think tank" with a bargepole after she pretty much single handedly destroyed what was left of the economy after Brexit/COVID/Ukraine? Or maybe they will use it as advice for what not to do? Whatever Liz recommends, be sure to take the opposite path.

Very likely as most top brass politicians have narcissistic traits. But Liz is like a living embodiment of the entire DSM-5 Cluster B list.

Hobestly, she needs the men in white coats round. She screwed the countries entire financial system and shrugs it off.

DH has a handy Telegraph reading UKIP leaning voter to chat to, who says... Truss's downfall was all a Sunak conspiracy. Sunak controlled the technocrats in OBR and leveraged his cronies in the City to also cause Pensions crisis. Also, Sunak maneuvered to force Johnson out. Cunning, eh, I sure wouldn't have credit Sunak as being so masterful, deffo.

There must surely be some financial gain for her to demonstrate this kind of lunacy and total self belief.

Yes she has fans… and US induced Dutch courage to fan the flames of her right-wing libertarian ideology (one shared by Nigel Farage, just to remind everyone that this is a collective agenda that is determined to permanently alter the UK’s political and economical engineering). She’s a key component of a disturbingly destructive force. She and her cronies are determined to finish off what Thatcher could not (there were still some checks and balances in place that kept Thatcher from dragging the UK into total Friedmanic meltdown- she came bloody close!). I feel like the ability to stem the libertarian tide is at its all time weakest. This has been decades in the making.

At some point when Truss was running for Leader in 2022, EDP went to Thetford to interview ppl in her constituency. Most of them had never heard of her so couldn't muster an opinion. Very funny. She may have to fight for her seat in 2024, though, so maybe that's part of her relaunch too, because her constituency party is probably feeling mortified about what happened in 2022. Doubtless has Tory and other nefarious gremlins whispering in her ear saying she was wrong done by. We have to admire her self-belief, right? No Imposter Syndrome there !

I'm staggered she wrote it and the paper gave it oxygen.

Any right-minded person would be suffering the equivalent of the worst beer fear ever thinking back on their shortest ever term in office and the sheer tsunami of shite they unleashed.

Liz, mate, take it from me. You're proper fucked. A greasy breakfast and flat coke won't make this go away ever.

I kind of like hearing this, I have wondered what perspective she had.
Robert Peston said listening to her perspective is like stepping thru the Looking Glass.
Gas lighting on Full.

Sadly she has fans, followers, believers, who will promote her views. That's the thing I worry about. Intriguing that Kwartang is not mentioned. He's supposed to be so clever... does he know he F'd up?

Good. She can remind everyone what a fucking disaster the Tories are and continue to be.

Or shameless.

I listened to a podcast this week where it was said her op-ed would be published today, thus sounding the alarm for her political ‘comeback’ (don’t all cheer at once).
She’s been spending time in the States, frolicking with kindred spirits and the upshot of it all is, she’ll form/run a free market think tank here in the UK, which will certainly influence and shape politics. She’s determined to inflict her Trussonomics on us.

I wonder if there are some narcissistic traits there. No one could be so deluded.

They should launch her into space.

Then launch many if the other current Tory party after her.

I get people want left or right wing policies and no size fits all.

But this bunch take corruption and lack of integrity to a whole new level.

It's as though we are living in some slasher horror film series where no matter how the antagonist is killed off, somehow they still rise to kill a few more people.

The Observer reported this morning that she is about to launch her political comeback. I had to laugh....

I read on another thread on mn that she shares the same PR person as Price Andrew

The left wing economic establishment??
The City and Hedge Funds are hardly well-known for their left leaning socialist principles.
The woman is utterly deluded!

Totally deluded. Best ignored - not even backbench Tory MPs are mad enough to bring her back. I think the main motivation is to keep her in the public eye and so boost her speech earning potential, to avoid the risk of having to go on the panto circuit like the Hamiltons.
