The PM arrived in parliament half an hour ago, still no sign of her in the chamber.

Where's Trussey ??
..

ClaudineClare · 17/10/2022 16:23

Someone asked if Truss was on her way to the Palace 😆

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:23

A big cheer for that coward ?
No way ..
boos maybe

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:24

Penny is good at the put downs I must admit !
She is cutting.

AutumnCrow · 17/10/2022 16:24

Mordaunt is so smug. She knows she's getting Deputy PM at least. Ffs.

I would say this was a Labour led media witch hunt…..

I've heard it all now 🤣🤣🤣🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:25

It's always easy for the government on these occasions and you just have tonnes of arse lockers on their side to say "you're all marvellous!"

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:25

She is smug, but it's the conservative way isn't it ?
I don't hate any of them , but the arrogance is hard to swallow. It's how they have to be though

It's all so vacuous though.

She wrote a book about why the British are all doing life wrong. She had to have co-writer. Even then it was rubbish.

But these are the sort of people that we want in charge of us. Glossy and posh.

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:28

She's there

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:28

Politics is brutal !
I admit, I wouldn't last 5 minutes!

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:29

Perhaps she was needing to get medical clearance

L1ttledrummergirl · 17/10/2022 16:29

Truss has just walked in laughing as if it's all a joke.

Unacceptable behaviour from a prime minister. They are a disgrace.

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:30

Laughter is a sign of madness.
Or hysteria.

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:30

Pinned in a committee room by GB?

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:33

Surgically having a backbone inserted?

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:34

She looks alright.
I bet they just carry on
Here we are, just blame everyone else eh ?
So predictable isn't it ?

Notonthestairs · 17/10/2022 16:36

So conveniently Truss managed to miss all the questions which centred on actions taken by her.

I hadn't thought it was possible to lower my expectations of a PM any lower after Johnson. It seems I was wrong.

Just so depressing.

the80sweregreat · 17/10/2022 16:40

More austerity and misery to come then :(
No surprises there

MrsLargeEmbodied · 17/10/2022 16:42

oh he is sharing the load, so he can't take the whole blame, smart view

tobee · 17/10/2022 16:42

But don't worry, it's only the plebs that will be affected. Only those that can't be bothered, haven't got the common sense to get a better job. And don't ask for a pay rise will you? Or better working conditions.

Theskyisfullofbirds · 17/10/2022 16:44

Or dare to publicly protest, Braverman will put a stop to that too. Or she will try.

Notonthestairs · 17/10/2022 17:12
