Well she is a Lib Dem after all. |  |

Labour still don’t appear to appeal to the voters, but will comfortably win back the seats in the North of the country which Corbyn somehow managed to lose. |  | |  |

I really think as a country we need to take a step back - and say WTF! on 13:51 - Sep 5 by Swansea_Blue | I'm not entirely convinced Truss will be any worse than Johnson - he was simply appalling in any number of ways from the shameless lying, overseeing massive corruption, inaction and absence at key times, incompetence and buffoonery at a time of genuine national need, etc. She's not clever enough to get away with his approach, even if she does seem to be a bit of a continuity candidate in terms of the culture wars and nationalistic drum banging. And you can bet a photo op to Kiev will be top of her wishlist. Yet I wonder how much of her previous approach was dictated by need to be one of the Brexit cabal to climb the greasy pole? Her tax plans are a massive alarm bell seemingly that could (continue to) do large damage. But then her supposed help on energy bills could actually turn out to be a good thing for a lot of people. We may all get a short-term benefit from her getting the role. We may not of course, as so often the last few Tory governments have failed to deliver anything meaningful despite sthe sound bites. |
I pretty much agree with that, although I think that the Tory party corruption and kowtowing to the offshore press barons will continue. We've had 12 years of variations of George Osbourne's austerity economics (except during the pandemic) and it got us nowhere. Not sure that she will come up with anything better, but we can't completely dismiss the possibility. (We probably can actually.) |  | |  |

She’s already sent Sterling tumbling even further against the $US in response to her (fantasy economics) policies. $1.15 to £ now - great for FTSE100 firms, cr@p for smaller businesses. We are in for a bumpy ride! |  | |  |

She'll send us to the bril, and still pose for the cameras like a duck's ar$e as it looks for pondweed |  |
