Well you might have, but some people (and the media and PMC en masse) were jubilant at what they perceived as the end of populist boosterism, lame attempts at culture ‘war’ and wedge issues, lying and so on. Now they’ve got Truss - a sobering corrective I’d suggest
Johnson achieved next to nothing in his tenure because he's lazy and arrogant. How much do you think Lamentable Liz will achieve, given her utter stupidity and the struggles she endures to put a sentence together? I'd suggest that she'd tick precisely fuck all off the loony to-do list.

He crashed the UK out of the EU in just about the worst way possible. He 'achieved' that as his lasting legacy for all of us to deal with.

id definitely be happiest with truss - she will wreck yet further damage on the tories, will be shit at the politicking needed to get polices through parliament, will have no authrority in her party and is the one most likley to lead the cunts to defeat.
Well he didn't really. The customs checks between the EU and the UK have been deferred repeatedly.
He did manage to get Teresa May's deal signed. The one he resigned as foreign secretary in disgust over.

What's complicated is often I don't even think they're lying as such. They're telling a story that they've probably told so many people so many times (including themselves) they actually believe it now, especially as it fits with the wider ideological points they're trying to make by telling it. Although they are also lying pricks of course.

Shame we have to deal with the shit-slinging of these chimps though.
Just bin off government altogether, many other countries have done just fine without these arseholes siphoning cash and bollocksing shit up. The other week FIFTY ministers quit; what the fuck did these cunts do??? Every day of the week, trousering >£100k, just what did the working day entail for these pricks???

Defund government.

I'm not sure if Badenoch is confusing the amount of tax she paid then with the amount she pays now on her £84k MP's salary.
She's getting good value out of the taxpayer at least thanks to the good people of safest Tory Essex.
Also an ex banker I see.
Why does she not share some stories from her banking days? I'm sure just as relatable as flipping burgers.

Truss would be the funniest I suppose, if only we aren't predicted an absolute tsunami of poverty and human wreckage over the next couple of years, following a decade of austerity. And none of these deeply weird and scarily ideological fuckwits have a fucking clue beyond tightening the screws further.

From one perspective there is a logic to ‘hoping’ Truss wins. She’s palpably ridiculous, she’d be an immediate prisoner of the endless Tory civil war and she’s similar to Johnson in that she’s highly unlikely to be able to grip and achieve anything much in the two years before an election.
Whilst undoubtedly vile she lacks the obvious ability of Sunak to actually do delivery. Most importantly Truss clearly doesn’t have a narrative or intellectual understanding of the economic and social changes which are occurring or which are liminal. As such she’s likely to be limited to purely reactive government rather than remaking a post-Brexit, post-pandemic Britain. Scant consolation for sure given the state of the Labour Party but she’s also probably the candidate that provides the best chance of a labour/SNP majority in 2024

You are watching a pantomime.
I think Truss is the only remaining candidate the RW media and Tory members will accept.

That’s the arena.
Fuck’em. Murdoch’s days are numbered. The narrative of what is right wing needs to change.
In some diseased minds enriching yourself preventing others from descending others falling in to poverty is the conservative ideal. That would be at least a start as it seems too left wing for current Labour (or 1997 Labour)

Weird, clearly. A very, very, very weird child. But with a talent for oratory at least. Used to be a prized quality in politicians. When did that change?
What do they believe in? Would it even be a good thing?

i'm not sure the fuhrer has followed the election with attention given that it's very uncertain that la kemi will be in the final two who'll be given to the membership to decide between
