Liz Truss

If she thought gobbling Johnson’s balls for a large portion of her speech was going to win over the British public she is even more useless than we all thought.

I'm not so sure. The voters liked Johnson because he was funny.
A sizeable number of the electorate are still in the "politics is boring" group and anything that taxes their grey matter is ignored. A showman like Johnson or Trump appeals to their ignorance.
 
One problem is the increasing pace of change. The human brain is not really programmed to accept it, and so people grow increasingly discontent. They yearn for earlier, simpler times and convince themselves there are 1001 conspiracies against us.

Politicians, whoever they are, cannot halt the pace of change. They can barely slacken it. It's scary. But it's even scarier for those who wish it was 1960.

Absolutely right, they cannot halt the pace of change so they demonise and exploit it instead.
That’s what brexit was all about.
 
It was inevitable but Christ, how depressing.She has a bulging library of idiotic beliefs and statements and has swopped horses to further her career on fundamental matters more often than Bozo has changed his lovers.
One comforting example to make all readers feel better. in the run up to the Brexit referendum, Twatty said: “I don’t want my daughters to grow up in a world where they need a visa or permit to work in Europe; or where they are hampered from trading with our European partners.’

The lowest internal vote winning percentage in history from a body of senile, pension rich middle class Waitrose shoppers. Fuck me sideways we are truly doomed.
 
So nothing specific about energy prices yet? I saw somewhere that she was considering a freeze on bills but that it might be more "targeted" than Labour's proposal which doesn't exactly fill me with confidence. Whatever she comes up with I'd have thought that it ought to be the very first thing she should deal with, and while I accept that it takes a lot more than 5 minutes to come up with a solution, she should've surely done all the ground work by now and had an announcement ready to coincide with her being announced as PM.

Give it a few days for the U turn on energy.
 
To celebrate Liz Truss's ascendancy to the post of Prime Minister, here she is re-imagined as bins.

Just spotted how she completely blanked Sunak when she got up to accept the result.

At least Boris shook Hunts hand.
