Renton

Bridget is on QT now. Mad to think she will probably in a senior position in the cabinet in a couple of years.

I think the only people who would benefit from the Truss budget working in the NHS would be chief execs of large trusts. PWorks out as about 0.0001% of staff.

Its almost forgotten that under the tories life expectancy has started dropping for the first time in recorded history. You've got to hand it to them. They are fucking with your standard of living, housing, and pensions, but at least you won't live as long to suffer it.

He'll probably become a moderate and centrist himself once his balls drop. Although tbf Corbyn never developed past sixth form politics.

The most CT like tweet of all time.

Tories will be campaigning for PR at this rate.

Is she some kind of masochist?

This is the leading comment from the below DM article, with 6500 likes. ALl the others are similar, she's well and truly lost the support of her base. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11261567/Liz-Truss-expected-say-WONT-reverse-economic-plans-finally-emerges-face-public.html#comments [I clicked so you don't have to].

The Economist is impressed.

There is some truth in this.

With tattoos?!!!! No, I can't accept that.

I was at Uni during the poll tax riots. I joined the bus going down from Liverpool to London, but only to hitch a cheap lift to see my brother and go out on the piss. Unfortunately our meeting place was Westminster bridge and of course this was before the days of mobile phones so meeting on a battleground wasn't a good idea. Got the National Express back up to Newcastle and had a weekend on the piss there instead!

Agreed. We can't survive 2 years of this. Literally.

Superb.

Politics used to be a bit of a "hobby" for me but now I am genuinely scared for the future of the country and my own family. Forget about the party politics, she really has to go now for the sake of the country.

If she does go, at least she will always be gainfully employed.

Plus they only have 3 or so minutes so are completely focussed. Nicky Campbell is ripping her to shreds now on the basis of the mini-interviews.

It's not about remembering anything at this point. It's about your standard of living being flushed down the pan. There is literally no way out of that. I'm not sure even Johnson is arrogant enough to come back. I honestly believe he would be the first PM to lose his seat in a GE.

Thing is, as she keeps on giving these deluded non-answers it just makes things worse for UK plc. She really needs to be removed.

So far R5 have played radio Leeds, Kent, Bristol, and some midlands shithole. It's uncomfortable, like watching the rape scene from the Accused on repeat.

Yeah, there is always that. But I mean, I still have to trust my own logic here.

I dunno. I mean the quality of candidates was dire but honestly I though Mordaunt was their best shout, a clean slate and not insane,. so I was surprised they went for Truss.
