This sort of attitude makes my blood boil. It's a lack of investment by directors that prevents productivity increasing, not lazy workers, a situation UK companies have been righfully accused of for decades.
Another take on Liz Truss.

Are some already not as you say in a slave workforce
Loads go to work and what they are paid does not cover their living costs
So they then have to go foodbanks where no doubt those better off donate
Like queueing up for more as Oliver Twist said

When I am in a cynical mood (which is about 95% of the time) I wonder whether today's loopy Tory leaders are actually secret Marxists attempting to bring about a revolution. It would explain a great deal.
I mean, there's stupid, and then there's Liz Truss, who makes Henry VI look like an accomplished leader of men.
This country is in a very scary place, have no doubt about that. I don't think Truss has anything like the skills needed to steer us through it. It's like having the boatman from Heaton Park as Admiral of the American Fleet at Midway. She is to governance what Brunel was to dancing on ice.

I'm an oldie (65) and I'll accept any goodies she's offering, but I won't vote Tory as long as I've a hole in my arse.
Hope she doesn't read this as I still want the goodies.

If you tell her she’s wrong personally, she’ll u-turn for you, or anyone else.
If you tell her she’s wrong, you've more chance of getting her “goodies”.
Her ideology, if you can't manage, is have some graft and get a second job, and tough shit if the coming depression means there aren't any jobs.
The problem I have with Truss is she will say anything if it means career advancement. It is impossible to understand whare her core values lie because there are so many conflicts in her public statements. She said she wanted her children to grow up in a green and pleasant land free from pollution, which our membership of the EU guranteed us. She was an arch remainer, but agreed to water companies discharging raw effluent into rivers and onto beaches, which is fine and dandy now she is an arch leaver and we are free from the shackles of the EUSSR.
That's just one example of the confusion in her head, and it's a confusion based on a lack of conviction.
I wouldn't read much into anything she is saying at the moment. Lizzie the Lathe is currently saying what she thinks the 150,000 members of her party want to hear.
