TBF to the head of lettuce, she was never an arch-Brexiteer.

I don’t think Greece would agree with that description of the EU.

Well no but what she actually means is she wants a bloc to coerce people into doing western neoliberal stuff not Chinese state capitalist stuff. There are already plenty of those; EU, FTAA, that one with like Japan and Australia in it etc.

Liz Truss brands viral lettuce that lasted longer than her No10 stint 'puerile'
A blonde-wigged iceberg lettuce outlasted Liz Truss's 49-day premiership - the shortest in history - but the ex-Prime Minister was scathing in her assessment of the stunt

The lettuce chose not dignify the comment with a response.

Liz Truss says lettuce joke was ‘puerile’ and media did not understand her ideas
Former PM criticises Daily Star stunt at Dublin conference but says UK media’s irreverence is a good thing overall
She didn’t understand them either

The lettuce changed its mind, and went with, 'Na, Na, Na, Na, Na.'

I'm still kind of impressed by the sheer force of her refusal to admit to any sort of fault on her part I have to admit. To come away from her time as PM with the idea that the problem is that the whole of the rest of the world is a bit thick is really quite something.

Truss and Kwarteng given more than £16,000 each after leaving office
Severance pay for former PM and chancellor equal to about £400 for every day they held roles, accounts show
£18,660 severance pay for Truss which equates to approx £380 / day.
To contextualise this someone on minimum wage would have to work for more than 48 weeks to earn this much and they’d have not fucked the economy whilst doing so.
And here's another Truss result:

Tom Scholar received nearly half a million pounds after Truss sacking
New documents show civil servant received extra pay-off of £457,000https://archive.ph/VwF5q

A lot more justification for that than the payoffs ministers get; Scholar was sacked to make a point (badly).
Oh, absolutely. Completely agree that he deserves compensation. It was another Truss fallout though and so the buck stops with her.
didn't realise that Truss was actually planning to stand for reelection as an MP. but seems so and should provide some amusement.

Delightful, I'll swear she's doing it for all our entertainment. And she's standing so as not to be their MP again
Actually Electoral Calculus is still predicting the Tories will win that seat, with a 53% chance against Labour's 47%, all the other parties need to get behind a Martin Bell type candidate, and screw her over.

I wonder if the model accounts for the actual candidate being a massive liability though.

Worth reading to the end for this. Apparently the Truss interregnum is known amongst the party’s MPs as “The Trusterfuck”.
