Liz Truss’s time is up

[Pickman's model]

cannie feel sorry for anyone wanting to do a maggie impersonation and it failing immediately

Maybe her trip to Brighton will go with a bang

So being Prime Minister isn't as easy as briefing the press after a cabinet meeting and taking stupid photos of yourself posing in someone else's clothes on instagram.

Who knew.

I don't feel a scintilla of pity for her. She was more than happy to throw 99% of the country under the bus to benefit the likes of Crispin Odey and shadowy dark money backers who have basically bought the Tory Party. The damage that pair of wingnuts did will hobble the country and most of its citizens for the foreseeable future.

I hope she drowns, alone, in her own shite. That's being kind, and probably marginally less humiliating a fate than the afternoon she just had in the house.

I hope she drowns in her own shite in front of other people who step back and let nature take its course

But what do you really think? You need to stop mincing your words.

The sense of having fucked everything up in the realms of politics, economics, finance and presentation: it's like waking up after a bender, being vaguely aware the police were involved, a memory of throwing up on the cat, one shoe, no wallet and a traffic cone stuck up yer arse. It's like that for liz 24/7.

That was a great night out wasn't it?

The neoliberal genius of the consolidator state is always to be in debt to the money markets; nothing then can happen without their say so.

 

[ska invita]

What do we reckon the "genuine reason" Truss hasn't turned up today is?

I wouldn't turn up tbf

 

[Cid]

She actually turned up at some point then? Just... Decide you daft fuck. Probably awkwardly bumped into someone from work while browsing the aisles at Fortum and Mason.

 

[platinumsage]

Where does she see herself in five years time? I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here?

Anthony Eden bred a herd of cows after resigning, but he still retained considerable popularity.

 

[gentlegreen]

Positioning herself there knowing the cameras are on her must be making her very self-conscious ...

Caught pulling a sickie.

I'm not going to school today; the teachers hate me, the kids hate me, even the dinner ladies hate me.
You have to go, you're the headmaster.

She didn't want to go to work because all the big kids were calling her nasty names

 

[Cid]

Caught pulling a sickie.

Exactly. We've all been there. The shame-faced 'oh, it was horrible headache, feeling much better, I'll er... I was just buying a snack on my way in'.

 

[Sue]

Nah, better to brazen it out. 'Just picking up a prescription, feeling really rough, need to get back to bed.'

Deffo not the dancing show ...
Peter Oborne imagined Truss in "The Great Gatsby" - but imagine Truss actually dancing ?
May mk 2. in terms of physical awkwardness...

Truss only dances when she can stamp on the skulls of children

It's missing Captain Tom and the Queen in heaven. And no Paddington.

its been said before i know but there was something distinctly odd with the way Truss just sat there blinking like a poisoned wood pidgeon.

Stress, shock, trauma. She must feel like a nurse after a 16 hour shift.

Doubt it.
She’s not been saving lives.
Although, trashing stuff must also be quite stressy

She's got a job for life with the Pork and Cheese Marketing Boards.

There are plenty of attempts to suggest some new spirit of unity this evening, including the idea that changing the leader would add to the market turmoil.

But there is also still stuff like this:

Has she had an Atos assessment?
