Somehow the answer to all of these is Putin.

@sharonodea: If @trussliz thought she’d get an easier ride by doing local radio this morning she underestimated them. This is not going well for her. “What it has done is it has made sure that people...…

The interview was on the Radio Kent breakfast show, ironically called 'The Wake Up Call', and the interviewer welcomes her to 'The Wake Up Call'.

I would have started with, 'welcome to your wake up call'.

The interviewer trashed her, no wonder she's avoiding the 'Today' programme on Radio 4.

Nothing to see here, folks, according to the Chief Secretary to the Treasury on R4 just now.

Nothing to spend more like

She had never actually been put under scrutiny before, has she? She has no idea what it means to be on top of the job.

 

[hipipol]

She reminds of a recruiter for some small provincial firm I met decades ago, looks the same, talks like the cork had never made it back to the bottle. The idiot in Gloucester was also a Thatcher cultist. I was there to advise on buying them, my advice? Dont do it. They were bust in a year. Unfortunately, this deranged fantasy being seems have the same skills simply writ large

They're benefit scroungers, living off multi billion Bank Of England handouts. They know they can fuck about all they like and the BoE will come to the rescue.

Here is another one.

Savaged by local radio DJs. Less savvy than Alan Partridge.

That is one of the most unbelievable interviews with a tory leader called Liz Truss i've ever heard.

In all seriousness I'm almost sympathetic, she is so far out of her depth. It's like watching a clip of a dog being swrpt away in a river and people forming human bridges to try and rescue it. In this case i hope they fail

 

[maomao]

She'll have picked local radio in the hope that the Partridges of this world couldn't make her look stupid when in reality my seven year old could show her up.

 

[Smangus]

She deserves all the shit exposure she gets, unbelievably wooden.

TBF, I think your little Tommy could too.

they all deserve what they get from this stage

its not our fault it all putins, the imf , the bankers and the bank of england

hmm was not going on before your mini budget

She had never actually been put under scrutiny before, has she? She has no idea what it means to be on top of the job.

More vigours questioning in 20 minutes than the likes of Kussenberg managed in years.

State of political reporting in this country is a farce

He knows Boris Johnson is a twat and will announce it if Johnson's mug comes on the telly. I'm not sure if it's going to be worth teaching him to say the same about Truss because I'm not convinced she'll be there in a week.

 

[Karl Masks]

She deserves all the shit exposure she gets, unbelievably wooden.

Thing is, Johnson could have gotten away with this. She, perhaps thinking she has the same weird media alchemy, absolutely can't and is sinking like the price of a complete Lost dvd box set in CEX

That's exactly the consensus on Twitter at the moment. BBC local radio is underrated and under-valued, and moments like this remind people that journalists cut their teeth and sharpen their skills working "on the doorstep" away from any Westminster bubble.

I used BBC Sounds to follow all eight and it was very entertaining.

 

[Storm Fox]

From those interviews, she's not fit to run a Village Hall Committee. I know in a lot of cases that is hyperbole, but in this case, it's true.

Cue more cuts to BBC local radio.

Sir, your talents are wasted at BBC Radio Bristol

Looks like doing the rounds of the local stations expecting softball questions is another massive unforced error then.

So she said something was a matter for the bank of england. Did i imagine it or wasn't she in favour of ending the BOE's independence? ( Putting Truss and kwarteng in charge of the BOE sounds like a really good idea )
