Liz Truss

As of last Friday it was still 9/2 that she would go this year. Don’t let anyone tell you again that bookies know more than the rest of us.

Difficult to understand how people expected her last for more than a few weeks given how wholly implausible she was as PM, and of course the damage she caused. She ignored every convention around the budget process - checks and balances that exist for good reason - and when it blew up in her face, she then tried to ignore the markets. When the penny finally dropped as to the severity of the situation, she absolved herself of responsibility and was effectively relieved of her position.

This is what happens when arrogance, naivety, ignorance and stupidity combine with authority. It really is a matter of huge national embarrassment that she ever made it to power.
She ‘made it’ so others could make a killing of the collapse of the economy and now she’ll Sean off into the sunset with a extra couple of mill in her pocket undoubtedly.
 
I assume Sunak will be favourite. Hopefully he can steady the ship and not do any more damage for the next couple of years.
 
There is not a single person in the party left who can do anything worthwhile. It would not surprise me if they elected a caretaker and called an election because of the mess that we are in.
They won't do that, they'd be obliterated. Anyone can come in and just do some reasonable policies and they'll be better set for the next election in 2 years.
