This can't be right, surely? Most obvious dolly you could bowl Labour.

I’m surprised it’s even got the veneer of disguise of it being hidden in bills.

She’s already said she’s all for more for the rich, so this fits perfectly. Everyone pays the same, so the least well off pay proportionally much, much more.

They don't care. They aren't a government so much as a get rich quick scheme.

Great advice here to MPs who aren't keen on Truss, from IDS. Who was famously helpful to John Major.

I'm surprised that the 90k or so cucumber sandwich munching bridge players who voted her in are okay with her extramarital activities. Or perhaps they don't know.

"Truss Liz to F*** it up!" is a better slogan than the tedious one they had on their little placards.

Use your imagination about what really goes on at those "bridge parties".

I remember reading Mark Thomas on anything involving BAE Systems. Go on air and criticise them and the calls will come in thick and fast defending them. Thomas bought some shares in them, just so he could attend their AGM. He expected a cabal of arms dealers and sinister men in suits. What he got was akin to a WI meeting, albeit Lycett-level right wing.

That's your local Conservative club.

Too late. I'm already thinking about "scoring a rubber" and now I need mind bleach.

Well, I think everyone on here would have to agree that Liz Truss has been a marvellous PM.

But all good things must come to an end, and so now is probably the right time to start to focus on who should become the next leader of the Conservative Party.

When I was briefly listening to Radio 2 yesterday whoever was filling in for Jeremy Vine said next we will be going live to the leadership election result but first David Bowie. And the Bowie track they played featured the line 'We can be heroes, just for one day'. I wonder if that will be the soundtrack to the Truss premiership.

What did Johnny do for a living before he was an MP? Funny I've never heard anything about it.

Welcome to Test Match Cricket. I believe certain parts of the media attacked Tony Blair and then Gordon Brown.

I mean, I think borrowing £200bn extra (lots of it for poorly targeted tax cuts) seems like a bit more than a "clever little point".

More from GB News. Completely fresh angle here. Political opponents want the country to fail. Because Cameron and Osborne wouldn't have been doing this in 2008-10.
