Liz Truss

She’s actually done the exact job she was installed to do. The very rich people who’ve successfully hijacked the Tory party have become even richer and will be well satisfied. She’ll be well looked after, no doubt.

And this is what it’s all been about, installing her and Kwasi was only about the rich making another killing off their policies and handling of the economy. Not interested in the rest of us or the country but just so this lot could make another quick buck.

She was primed by Mogg and co, wound up, did her worst and now she’s off. She might well have been an unwitting pawn but she was integral in yet another wealth grab by the already fantastically wealthy.

Reds under the bed, too?

C'mon, Blue. The fantastically wealthy are so, regardless of the economic climate.

And if you are Odey, you can make your career out of shorting for years in advance.

Liz was crap, surrounded by crap, endorsed by crap, a party paying the price for slitting its own throat.

Even though she was 9/2 you’d not get a chunky bet on something like that, it’s just cheap advertising. Bookies are risk managers, as soon as a “stranger” tried to bet on that the quicker the market gets shut down. Think Graham Potter to Chelsea, was big odds on before he was even interviewed, bookies know their markets.

Yes, I couldn’t get much on, despite my best efforts.

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.
