Current Affairs Liz Truss

[Prevenger17]

That's rich, when we've just suffered from the laziest PM in world history. Just feck off, and take the rest of your free loading grifters with you.

More disturbingly, she made an admiring reference to the working culture in China there. There is no end in sight for the UK

I know, it’s the manager in me. But seriously these people, with an upcoming economic crisis, should be told to put your shoulder behind the wheel or bugger off and let someone else have your well paid job…no one is indispensable, not even Boris….

“upcoming” we’re already there Pete! How does it feel knowing you’ve left a knackered country for your kids and grandchildren? Dunno how you Tories sleep at night to be honest…

She's Johnson with less charisma and a bits swap. Sunak is a snake. How you got to that choice, I don't know.

Makes our elections look good by comparison, and ours are an utter cesspool at all levels. No offense intended at any of you or your process (I understand how both your process and mine work). I'm just baffled by the outcome, even with that level of knowledge of how the sausage is made.

I'm sure both sides can lower their game and make a better competition of being awful.

We know how the sausage is made, and still managed to make the choice for the job of sausage maker between the man with the concession on getting rid of plague rat carcasses the job and the woman responsible for disposal of bodies from the morgue. We'll all be pining for tales of Johnson's prime sausage come September!

How possible is this, really? I suppose that we (assuming the effects of time away) could have an election between Charles Manson and Jeffrey Dahmer, but in principle the populace is supposed to put a floor under how awful the candidates are.

Granted, for the last several presidential elections we've been saying, "These candidates can't get any worse," and then the parties manage to impress us on that front, but at some point the whole thing has to become asymptotic, doesn't it?

….Truss basically caught saying, workers in the North are lazy and need to graft more. This on the back of her quickly doing a policy u-turn on regional public sector pay, wanting to give higher wage rises to those in well-off areas.Then she keeps a straight face supporting ‘levelling up’.

Truss can’t hide her true beliefs. Truss is representative of this Government, listen to the news, the country is in a complete mess.

The most beautiful irony she states Brexit and anti European sentiment as false flags and real problem is British work ethic... And we should be more like China! It's hard to keep up.

Truss wants the gig economy for majority and support zero hours contracts, while making it easier to fire people and wonder then wonders why we are not as productive. They are also quite happy with fire and rehire

They ramp university charges then wonder why we are not as skilled as our neighbour, thick as crap!

I have a pretty good idea where the problem lies

Crazy, isn't it, how people won't bust their arse for people who can and would fire them at the drop of a hat to keep their dividends safe.

If Fate demonstrates possession of a time machine like that, I'm strangling the hag and taking it. With me?

I'd just check first what if says about running dead bodies of serial killers as presidential candidates in the rules before you blame Fate.

Dead people can win elected office in this country (see: Carnahan, Mel), but you have to be verifiably alive at the time to be placed on the ballot.

@peteblue with his latest smash hit, there.

Hmm it’s a tough one. I like the financial plan offered by Manson by Dahmer tends to get the big calls RIGHT.

Thought I'd seen it all! Not only deluded but absolute drivel too! *Shakes head in disbelief*
