She's doing an excellent job at undermining Truss.
"She's not under a desk. I don't think there has been a coup." She's writing tomorrows headlines for them.

She's vile.

She's implying Truss has had some sort of breakdown.

Protected the most vulnerable?
.. ha ha ha .
Pull the other one.

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:07

I wonder how K K feels about Ms Truss's courage ?

I know. She can piss off. Her and Coffey. And Hunt.

AutumnCrow · 17/10/2022 16:08

Jess Phillips gets it right. Penny Mordaunt is a known liar (Turkey veto, Andrew Marr programme).

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:09

They like kicking the vulnerable more like !
Often and hard
So Penny likes going back to the Labour failings eh ? So predictable isn't it ?
There won't be any money left by the conservatives at this rate either by the time the hedge fund managers have taken it all !

AutumnCrow · 17/10/2022 16:09

'She [the PM] would wish to be here ...'

Wtf? Is Mordaunt seriously suggesting that Truss is unable to carry out her functions?

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:10

Why isn't she there then ?
PM is making it worse really as now they are speculating why she is a no show !

Theskyisfullofbirds · 17/10/2022 16:12

I do think Mordaunt is implying that there is something wrong with Truss, perhaps that she's unwell. True or not, this would be an excellent get out of jail card that would allow the Tories to parachute in a replacement.

Theskyisfullofbirds · 17/10/2022 16:14

There's a distinct tone of 'you'll all be sorry about what you've said once you find out the truth'.

L1ttledrummergirl · 17/10/2022 16:15

Freudian slip there from the speaker- he referred to Mordaunt as the Prime Minster.

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:15

Ms Truss is probably poorly to be fair
If she goes to this do tonight I hope the paps are out in force !
Tough decision ...
yeah , ok , sack my mate off and blame him
That's just cowardly not tough

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:16

I can only think unwell or Ukraine in terms of not being able to say.

Although latest answer that she might be hear this afternoon.... 🤔

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:17

Sky cut to police protected cars with blacked out windows but no comment. Anyone see comment on Twitter or something?

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:18

The conservatives wouldn't know honor if it hit them over their heads!

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:18

Was it Hunt?

AdamRyan · 17/10/2022 16:18

Every time I look at this thread duncins title is more apt. Totally unbelievable events this afternoon! It's horrific

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:20

Sam Coates says on Twitter that Truss is on the Westminster estate.... 🤔🤔🤔

AutumnCrow · 17/10/2022 16:20

Mordaunt says she's asked if she can say why Truss is absent. Nope. We'll have to take her assurances ...

She's implying Truss is ga-ga.

If it's Ukraine, she could say 'national security'. She is burying Truss with faint excuses. Very unpleasant work. She's not a nice person.

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:20

On the bog?

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:21

She threw her best friend under the bus
It's not courage or tough or honorable
It's just being an utter cow

TokyoSushi · 17/10/2022 16:21

Something weird going on here about where Truss is.

Agree possibilities could be:
a) In Kyiv
b) Unwell
c) In process of resigning

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:22

Shhh! .. don't tell Penny
.. it's making it worse really isn't it?

itsgettingweird · 17/10/2022 16:22

"Has the PM gone to to the palace"

Grin

This is a shit show.

They've lost control.

Penny Mourdant is doing very well tbf to her.
