Liz Truss

[mat]

That comment about not cutting public spending, but making sure it is "spent well" is a smokescreen in my opinion. She's up to something.

Removing employees right to strike. Cut our other protections as well, such as removal of working time directive and holiday uplift pay.

Not cutting spending but spending wisely means cutting spending. She must think we are stupid.

I imagine one trick will be cutting funds for local govt and allowing council's to increase council tax above the pre local referendum limit of 2.99%.

 

[Manc in London]

She says she's saved us all from huge energy bills.

My energy bills are 3 times what they were

Am I missing something? There is no way they could have allowed them to go even worse.

They are still unaffordable to most of us, especially if you live alone.

This is it, they can lie about the impacts of Brexit, funding of public services and other more complicated issues but there is one thing everyone knows, and that is if something hits them in the pockets. Lies about this will not wash with the public. The Tories are toast.

meeting her back benchers tonight to rally support - words coming out of the meeting are "despairing " and "like the dog days of the May regime" - all going very well

 

[mosssideblue]

She just said there will be no spending cuts , how the hell is she funding her mini budget ? Sixty billion black hole , sounds like borrowing all of it unless she is lying again

They're simply borrowing time to try and reconcile the figures before releasing them publicly

 

[mosssideblue]

I would.

This guy is the Pol Ed of the Daily Fail - she is done for

 

[bluethrunthru]

she just doesn't get it - she is so far out of reality - last time I heard of a Tory PM saying stuff like this it was Thatcher saying the Poll Tax wasn't the wrong thing to do it was just the way they told their story that failed to get it across

There are spice-heads in Piccadilly Gardens whose decision making and judgement would genuinely be palpably superior.

She is that bad I can’t discount the possibility of some sort of sabotage at play.

Does any **** want to try and defend the electoral system that has delivered this utter fool into Office?

 

[bluethrunthru]

she is an INTERNATIONAL laughing stock and by association so are we

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

she is an INTERNATIONAL laughing stock

We are, mate.

She went to Oxford though mate, so she must be dead clever.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

We are, mate.

Very much, and not only because of this.

Not cutting spending but spending wisely means cutting spending. She must think we are stupid.

They rely on stupidity for their votes.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Will anybody vote for her?
