Liz Truss

I really hope the press & critics latch onto this because I think it distills her stupidity and dishonesty in 4 sentences. I am desperate for one TV or radio interviewer to put it to her simply.

Mrs Truss, you 4 when Thatcher got elected and 22 when Labour came into power. The Boarded-up shops, people left with no hope turning to drugs, families struggling to put food on the table - that was all happening under the longest period of conservative power since the 18th century wasn't it?


And those Thatcherite policies are the ones that you want to bring back to Britain?


Bonus points if they also challenge her on the outright lie that she was the first PM to go to a comprehensive school, she's not even the first Tory PM to do that.

Not to mention the highest ever taxes and low growth comments - after 12 years of Tory rule.

I can’t believe she’s even an MP, surely the ability to communicate is a given, she’s fucking awful, is she on the spectrum? Maybe why she seems to have no empathy with people

I sat on a table with her at the German embassy whilst drinking beer and eating sausages. That’s another story.
She’s definitely on the spectrum and by a good way. Zero personable skills and uncomfortable amongst strangers.

I don't think she minds that though, because she's desperate to present herself as new and different to Cameron, May & Johnson - she keeps saying "new government" and "we've only been in charge for 28 days" etc.

The comprehensive thing is mad - the main reason is that she's a good way younger than any other PM is (as of today, not when elected), and comprehensives were expanded in the late 60s. It stands to reason that very few predecessors went to comprehensives.

I fully expect them to weasel about Theresa May who (I think) went to a grammar school which converted to a comprehensive while she was there.

I'm confused. I thought she wanted more grammar schools. Was that intended to show how even idiots from a comprehensive school can be PM?
