So it was another Kwasi Kartang, who she appointed as CoE, who stood up in the Commons and delivered a 20 minute financial statement that totally fucked the economy

Predictably, the re-emergence of Truss seems to have gone down like the proverbial cup of cold sick with much of the country.

I should imagine Labour HQ will be doing cartwheels this weekend - the Tories desperately want to move the narrative onto "Starmer tried to make Corbyn PM" or some such guff, but they keep being upended by reminders of their own bungling incompetence.

A good chance that Truss will be flogging NFT's by the end of the year?

Yup I can think the only people who benefit are the opposition.

As someone who has been there, I object to the use of "nervous breakdown" as a humorous/ derogatory throwaway line. I don't know who this Tyrone person is, but surely he could do better than that.

Edit: She's not a million miles off from using "Globalists" :o - not yet, at least.

Honestly, you're giving her more benefit of the doubt than I can muster. The financial markets are somehow in thrall to an inconvenient liberal/leftie group to no particular end beyond knocking over the best laid plans of good white Christian capitalists, in the service of an entirely obscure agenda and to make themselves rich.

I mean it's a liiiiittle bit more subtle than Der Sturmer and all, but still.

She put Kwasi Kwarteng in as Chancellor.

All that alcohol plays havoc with your memory.

On other historic Farage news.
Why so much hate for the Fuhrer, Doenitz was an honourable man with clean hands.

John Major had his own mandate when he moved on Thatcher to STFU with the back seat driving. Sunak is so devoid of authority his failed predecessor who governed for 10 minutes is throwing jelly at the walls.

Top brains unravelling the lefty banker’s conspiracy against Truss. Imagine lowering interest rates with Truss in power, may as well go abroad with Argentine Pesos. Us old lefties know what a cycle of shit that descends into


Liability Driven Investments (LDI). Have no idea what Redwood’s talking about but it’s likely to be bollocks.

Strong vibes of Principle Skinner's "No, it's the kids that are wrong".

I love the smell of bullshit in the morning.

‘Delusional Liz Truss could cost Tories next election’

Sunak doesn’t need Truss’s help for that. Can’t see how Truss is making matters much worse but will be Starmer’s choice for this week’s witness to Sunak’s weakness.
