Here we are.

I'm afraid I just can't bear to watch it myself, it will make me too angry.

I approve very much of the use of the word nincompoop on this thread

They are just fighting now :(
Two polar opposites about the economy.
Who do you believe ?

Maybe it's all just pretend. The whole thing of Johnson "resigning". These two (and the others) are just pretending. And it's all just an elaborate sham.

Tobee, that's a conspiracy theory I haven't heard before , but it makes sense.

There is a lot of sniping.

I'm not keen on either BUT Liz Truss sounds dangerous with her economic policy.

You know when you used to do carbon copies at work, over and over and by the end it was all faded and hardly readable?

That’s the Conservative Party today, that is.

This is like Harry Hill's tv burb..
Fighttt !
They both sound a bit desperate.
Patrick Minford is Ms Truss's economist and he was on newsnight last Friday. Nobody agreed with him much.

Liz Truss sounds on very shaky ground, to me... and I am no economist by any stretch, but it honestly sounds like she hasn't a clue.
(and a bit of a nincompoop)

I'm afraid I just can't bear to watch it myself, it will make me too angry.

Me too. Might have a minute glance or so but that’s all I can manage.

The other economists on tv last week were just shaking their heads at Liz Truss's ideas.
They are dangerous , but I doubt that people will listen.

Rishi’s morphing into Will off Inbetweeners is now complete. I am just waiting for him to say “Brilliant” in a flat voice to head off Liz’s Twatcher.

Oh dear!

I do like Chris Mason 🤣
He's caught our Liz out!

We have decided to watch 24hours in A+E instead, less chance of severe car crashes.

I am following it on twitter, the kids are watching Candy Man

She hasn’t perfected a Poker Face at all, has she.

God no. And that is not good. She looks irritated and exasperated.

I don't like either of them, but I do think Sunak has more financial and economic experience and it shows.

Now we're onto levelling up. That'll be a laugh

Liz hasn't got a poker face, no.

Sunak is not coming across well here, arrogant, interrupting, superior and I'd say quick to lose his temper.

Truss is just, quite frankly, odd.

These two are seriously the two best possible people to do this job?! I'm back to despairing again!

Excellent Ming The Useless shoulders tho. Give the woman her due.

This shit used to mean something. Whether you agreed with who was spouting their vision at you or not, there was the vague sense that they believed what they were saying.
Politics reduced to two reality show wannabes driveling shite for a disbelieving and cynical media. Ffs.

Hell... we have to talk about Liz Truss's earrings now.

Of course Brexit isn't causing the queues at Dover .. 😫 doh
They just stand and lie to us at every opportunity.

I wish Rishi had challenged her rubbish about how deprived kids were at her comprehensive school. Several of her peers from there now have said it's a load of rubbish.

She was very open about still supporting BJ. Surely that should mean she loses? Otherwise what was the point of getting rid of him?
