…. And she’s out of here

[Allthegoodnamesarealreadytaken]

Truss resigns.

thank god for that!

do we think sunak for the next PM?

what’s it going to take for a GE?

I'm watching the odd change live- it's fascinating!

*odds

To be fair, it was an iceberg lettuce, they do seem to be quite robust.

He really doesn’t and the tories are no friends to women despite what women may think

Very true did you know I found out that boris has never done a surgery in his constituency? It was on the radio how lazy is that

All the Tories were clapping and cheering after the mini budget-not-budget because they agreed with it!

They are hooked on the belief that cutting taxes in order to pour more money into the pockets of the wealthiest of the wealthy, coupled with high austerity, shit (non existent) public services for everyone else while borrowing a fortune in order to do it, right after a period of total crisis, is THE way to go.

They were all in favour on that Friday afternoon.

When the markets opened up after the weekend and the pound began to collapse, because their ideology is such obvious bollocks, suddenly it's "all Liz Truss' fault, she has to go"
They championed her.

They ALL need to go.

100%

Well said

Go Larry

There won’t be a ge. Pigs are more likely to fly. The tories are many things but complete fucking idiots they are not. They have two years to play with and they will use every moment of it.

so now it’s all about who will take over next week.

what a shit show though. I am stunned at how quickly she fucked it. And how spectacularly. It’s astonishing. 6 weeks in and out. You couldn’t make it up

Until he agrees that under no circumstances should I have to get changed next to a person with a penis and can change at my gym knowing this won’t happen or have a person with a penis in my toilets etc until he knows the difference between self ID and sex for purposes such as healthcare, womens refuges and other single sex spaces and states that unequivocally, he really does. He will never get my vote until he states he will protect women’s safety. This, above all else is my main criteria for Labour getting my vote

Thanks for the lettuce explanation.

Now we need an octopus to pick the next pm. Couldn't do a worse job than the MPs and Tory faithful.

I feel quite sorry for her to be honest she was used as a Tory scape goat sand I think she had good intentions but was poorly advised.

The Times is reporting that Boris will stand.

Apparently BO jo likely to stand - he seems to have quite a backing - let’s hope Liz hasn’t stripped the wallpaper in the last 6 weeks

About high time they dissolved the farcical circus that is parliament.

Oh for gods sake! Talk about the turd that won’t flush

So long as Boris doesn't make a comeback........

Boris is at 7/2. Clear favourite 🙄

“Low tax, small state economy”? I’ll pass, thanks. I’d rather know that if I have to go to A&E there won’t be a 24 hour wait. Or if I’m a victim of violent crime it won’t take two years to come to trial. You know, basic public services that aren’t on their knees. And a benefits system that’s not so shit people are going hungry so food banks had to be invented.

dear lord the way it's going we are going to get Boris back again.
For goodness sake we need a general election.

And Starmer is honest. Which after Johnson counts for a lot.

How can they have a leadership contest within a week? Did Truss just mean it will START within the week? They can't change the rules so they no longer have to consult the membership, right? Although I suppose they could have one of the final two drop out, Andrea Leadsom-style...

Lettuce for PM.

Or, you know, a GE.

well whoever becomes the next PM I just hope to goodness they dont renege on the 6 months support with energy prices we have got left!
