Current Affairs Liz Truss

[woomy]

With inflation being what it is you don't actually need to reduce absolute levels to impose quite significant cuts in real spending power.

Yep, that wil be the get out for her. We haven't actually cut any money. When in real terms it will have been a massacre of some budgets.
I think we can all forget this government making any financial attempt at trying to bring NHS waiting lists down, and benefits/pension will surely not rise with inflation.
Maybe chuck in a 1% pay rise next year.
Not technically lied, but still.

Given the number of pensioners who vote for them that's usually the last thing that gets cut. It would require them to get rid of the triple lock, which would be unthinkable IMO. So pensioners will probably get protected at the expense of the working age population. That's what usually happens.

With your threatened execution of joey we can at least start getting these numbers down

 

[Abertonian]

Apparently not cutting government spending and pushing ahead with tax cuts. Sure the pound will rally on that

Nail on the head, and she thinks we're too stupid to notice.

It’s the new vaccines.

It’s the new vaccines.

Indeed.

 

[edge]

She walked right into Starmers trap on public spending, are you going to cut it NO.
Ft goes down right away.
She does it another UTurn.
Masterstroke and worrying at the same time She is that dim to fall for it

 

[bullybeef]

We are in big big trouble with this idiot at the helm.

Jesus wept, I’ve never seen such an out of their depth PM.

No wonder the Queen popped her clogs so soon after their first audience.

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

With the BoE position becoming clear Truss and Kwarteng will do well to still be in their position s next week. There should be a GE if so, lord knows we need to shift this rabble of thieves and halfwits.

 

[Rich B]

What's the point of mitigating enormous energy prices rises, incurring government debt in the process, only for families to then be faced with losing the roof over their heads? It was a choice between heating and eating, now it's a lose -lose can't afford to heat, or eat, or pay the rent / mortgage

 

[Charlie Sweet]

The only thing going for Liz is that she seems to have a nice perky rack on her.

That’s the best I can come up with.

This is literally the definition of "scraping the barrel" ?

 

[Abertonian]

Just watched some of PMQs, she has to go. To my eyes Penny Mordaunt looked mighty uncomfortable when Truss was speaking, i'm sure plenty of her colleagues feel the same. Doubt they will be slow in sharpening their knives.

Keir was a bit ineffective at times against Boris but his calm, measured, almost clinical approach is perfect against Truss. Something like giving her enough rope to hang herself, repeatedly. She is unclear - indeed.

Spoilt for choice these days, some tits on the government benches.

She’ll be able to make some dough on only fans if/when she is sacked next week.
