K K is waiting for you with a big knife love
Watch out for your own colleagues

God that press conference was staggering. Storming out in a tantrum. She’s not a leader, she’s toast and she knows it.

DuncinToffee · 14/10/2022 14:45

Well that was quick.

U-turn confirmed, they are keeping Sunak’s corp rate tax rise in April to 25p

She'll be gone by the weekend
I bet she rushed off to be sick , she looked dreadful
Utterly useless

Getting an absolute pasting from the press now, That has done absolutely nothing at all.

I was trying to work out if the Sun and Telegraph were going to ask her feed questions so she could say what she wanted but I I don't think so.

The whole exercise's visuals were she's on her own.

Makes you slightly wonder if Hunt has actually agreed to be her chancellor or if she's just said he is!! Grin

TokyoSushi · 14/10/2022 14:46

That press conference was dreadful. She'll be gone very, very soon now.

Extraordinary. Desperately casting around for journalists who might ask sympathetic questions, and dashing for the exit when they didn’t.

Useless useless useless

She needs to watch out for Kwarteng, he knows where the bodies are buried.

Although they didn't have much time to bury too many!!!

TokyoSushi · 14/10/2022 14:48

I have a really important and senior job (get me Grin) I have 2 tabs open, this and Twitter!

the80sweregreat · 14/10/2022 14:48

She ran out of there.
She knows she wasn't great
It was embarrassing all round

Notonthestairs · 14/10/2022 14:51

So those savings...18 bn from corp tax obviously isn't enough. Another 20?40? billion to find?

They’ve been close for years and she’s had ministerial jobs for a decade. There will be loads of fuck ups to be uncovered.

Wow. Truss leaves the stage after taking just FOUR questions.
Sharp intake of breath as she walks off.
'Aren't you going to say sorry?!' hack shouted as she left.

It was @krishgm who asked the Q we all wanted asked.

Sorry , she doesn't know the meaning of this word.

An MP texts: “even by her standards that was really bad”

I bet she's ill. She looked dreadful

Notonthestairs · 14/10/2022 14:57

Someone is having fun...

Good to talk to Surrey Heath headteachers today - providing strong leadership for the next generation. We discussed funding pressures, support for the vulnerable and recruitment and retention.

True @Blossomtoes . And, I believe, still close.

newnamethanks · 14/10/2022 15:02

Yes, she's gone, whether there in person or not. An Mr Hunt by her side, interesting. She and her fellow travellers - hi Bozo - gave Mr Hunt a pretty comprehensive thrashing after booting him out. I'm guessing he has a surgeon's skills. Watch your back Liz.

Notonthestairs · 14/10/2022 15:08

If she wasn't finished before I think she must be now.

"The point of a masochism strategy is to look strong by taking every question and braving it out. It is not to look frightened and then leg it"

Adam Bienkov jokes that at least she could find the door on this occasion.

the80sweregreat · 14/10/2022 15:19

Well. I blame the ones who were allowed to vote for her. They clearly didn't watch the hustings

AdamRyan · 14/10/2022 15:21

She should do a Cameron. "I've fucked it, I resign. Someone else can clean up the elephant turd. Over to you Jeremy"

AdamRyan · 14/10/2022 15:23

Is it my imagination or has she abandoned "Thatcher voice"? She seems to have gone up a couple of octaves
