Or maybe Tuesday at the latest? Would she really want to face the absolute public humiliation of PMQs on Wednesday?

LT has gone!

I keep swinging between fury and pity towards her.

Don’t give in to pity. That misplaced emotion has already claimed otherwise intelligent people feeling sympathy for Theresa May.

EasterIssland · 17/10/2022 16:57

Why would she resigned after hunts changes. I’m sure she approved kk budget sale way she’s approved hunts. Sole tories we’re team rishi so it’s normal they’re not happy but some others were suporting these crazy changes. She’s not done anything she promised and they elected her for

MomwasCasual · 17/10/2022 16:57

And she's off!

Thanks for showing up Liz, you were great Confused

StJeanDeVence · 17/10/2022 16:57

And now she's left again! Honestly, what is the point of her??

NowThatsWhatICall22 · 17/10/2022 16:57

And now she’s gone again. WtactualF is going on?

"Liz Truss is literally not able to speak. She just sits there, there was a chance for her to rise. She sat in stunned silence. It's as if they've told her she's not to speak."

@QuebecBagnet she just walked out, albeit very quickly

Wtf?

hesbeingabitofadick · 17/10/2022 16:58

They had to put her back in the fridge before she began to melt.

torbygirl · 17/10/2022 16:58

Why was she ever there then?? So odd.

EdieLedwell · 17/10/2022 16:58

What on Earth??

QuebecBagnet · 17/10/2022 16:59

Oh you mean left the chamber?

certainly Hunt comes across as being in charge. She just sat there like a village idiot

Skiphopbump · 17/10/2022 16:59

Popping in and sitting looking bank is then leaving is surely more odd than not turning up.

Bluebellandpansies · 17/10/2022 17:00

I just hope that she does not crash in public and keeps it together. She should resign. It is really untenable.

Just now Penny M quote ‘I’ve been told I can not disclose why she’s absent but she maybe present later’ or something to that effect

I think Liz having smear test lol

We are paying the woman to be PM, aren't we? Surely we're entitled to know why she hasn't turned up to do an important element of her job?

Does anyone know why it's Mordaunt taking PMQ and not Coffey? Surely it's normally the deputy's job?

Redcase · 17/10/2022 17:00

Who just left then?

boys3 · 17/10/2022 17:01

Who left first Mordaunt or Truss? I should have been paying more attention

SleeplessInEngland · 17/10/2022 17:01

I wonder if even die-hard Leavers are starting to feel annoyed their project and its public perception are inextricably tied to these people.

EdieLedwell · 17/10/2022 17:01

It's very odd. What was Mordant on about then? The genuine reason she couldn't turn up?

Then she turned up?
