I’m just wondering how much more she can dig before she pops out in NZ. You can have her

She's quite, quite mad.SaintK wrote: Sun Feb 05, 2023 11:09 am Holy shit!! She's absolutely delusional!!!https://12ft.io/proxy?ref=&q=https:// ... -economy/Liz Truss is breaking her silence as she blames a "powerful economic establishment" and her own Conservative Party for her downfall.
The former prime minister says that she stands by her radical policy agenda but "the forces against it were too great" for it to succeed.
Not quite sure what the Torygraph are doing here publishing this, is it just "right of reply" or are they really sore that she didn't get to see it through?

What she done to the UK economy was so irresponsible that it should carry some form of jail term.
It's ridiculous that a person's name can legitimately appear alongside huge events that have hit us hard. Brexit, Covid, Russian invasion and Liz Truss.
She crashed the economy of course not necessarily down to the crazy ideology, but because they didn't (and couldn't seem to) explain how they would fill the massive hole that the policies would leave.
It's just such negligence.
All driven by an obsession of how little time she had to make her mark in the history books. Destined for greatness, such ego.
Shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a position to do such damage again.
Sore she didn't see it through, they're the biggest truss cheerleaders out there.tabascoboy wrote: Sun Feb 05, 2023 2:23 pmNot quite sure what the Torygraph are doing here publishing this, is it just "right of reply" or are they really sore that she didn't get to see it through?

She is a feckin deluded crackpot! The Tories need to fit her with a pair of concrete wellies and dump her somewhere asap.I like neeps wrote: Mon Feb 06, 2023 7:15 pm

One of the more worrying parts is that she totally ignored the usual check and balance of civil servant advice and went ahead anyway.C T wrote: Sun Feb 05, 2023 2:17 pmShe's quite, quite mad.SaintK wrote: Sun Feb 05, 2023 11:09 am Holy shit!!

Lance Foreman on R5 this morning with a piece on how Truss was right, everyone else was wrong, she was got at by the 'establishment' and she deserves a second chance! R5 presenters say they have been deluged with listener feedback and are trying to find a single comment from someone who agreed with him, in the interest of impartiality of course, but can't find any! Foreman then suggests he is not surprised at the feedback given all BBC R5 listeners are just left wing woke commies which generates even more listeners feedback telling him he is nuts, which he is of course! These deluded feckers are very very dangerous but at least it would appear the vast majority of R5 listeners now realise this!inactionman wrote: Tue Feb 07, 2023 9:15 amOne of the more worrying parts is that she totally ignored the usual check and balance of civil servant advice and went ahead anyway.C T wrote: Sun Feb 05, 2023 2:17 pmShe's quite, quite mad.SaintK wrote: Sun Feb 05, 2023 11:09 am Holy shit!!

Many, many people foresaw the problems of pursuing such an idiotic course of action hot on the heels of covid and an energy and cost of living crisis, and she got very clear warnings. But she went ahead anyway.
As you say, such reckless irresponsibility should really have consequences. If you ignore the advice of pretty much everyone in any senior role, then it's squarely on your head.
He's the cunt who basically blackmailed the London Olympic committee by refusing to accept the very reasonable offer to move his factory outside the Olympic Park area unless they paid him three times the going rate!dpedin wrote: Tue Feb 07, 2023 9:23 am

I'm a bit lost by this - the spike in wholesale prices and the trailing 9 month average have long since dropped past peak, why are consumer prices going up?

BP also with record profits of £23b apparently.
About as cut and dried a case for a windfall tax as is possible.
Yep or some other kind of direct action that caps profiteering. Anything else is simply another egregious act of class warfare from the nasty party.Dinsdale Piranha wrote: Tue Feb 07, 2023 2:31 pmAbout as cut and dried a case for a windfall tax as is possible.

So he wasn't even paid for doing it? Maybe he only lasted a week...
Yes this is a large part of it. But the cruelty is odd with Anderson is my point. If you spend your life in a social movement on the left and life to those values by being very involved in a lot of good in your local community to then become the culture wars in human form... It's just odd is all.
