In this context, woke culture is those dreadful liberals who believe that businesses and individuals should be allowed to do what they want, particularly in the sphere of taxation, regulation and paying for stuff they've used. Most of them being in the Conservative Party.
How can these morons believe what they are say? How is woke culture in anyway shape or form to blame? I should read the article but frankly I can’t be bothered if that’s the main takeaway.
She's a natural comedian and could make a fortune making speeches about her favourite cheese, apple, pear, tea and type of pork, which is an excuse to highlight this, which I can never tire of seeing.
And let's hope today she doesn't get lost leaving the room after her speech
Incidentally, in this video her own staff can be seen laughing at her struggles as they watch on from the doorway

She should be in jail with the rest of that lot.
Well, Wokey Brogan is firmly of a mind that reparations should be made to the country by those that voted her in as PM her constituents or those in the Tory party that voted her in to be leader when it was clear that her policies were ill thought out. Take their houses, cars savings the lot to go towards making good the money the B of E had to use to fill the gap, not to mention whacking up everyone's mortgage rates.
Jail is too good for them, Rwanda on the other hand..........

Woke means being awake to injustices.
Which is why so many on the right of politics want to demonise "woke culture".
It's got to take some serious mental gymnastics to link "woke culture" to high taxes, and frankly I'm not sure Truss could manage a mental forward roll.
It's right wing speak for 'anything I don't like' which ranges from not being corrupt in public life to wanting a basic degree of competence in governement through to simply not being a c**t.
I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

Someone in her team(not her, obvs) is savvy enough to realise that railing against the current buzzword for 'doing one's best not to be a c**t' is the Current Thing amongst the spoon banging fraternity but not savvy enough to realise that this sort of thing makes you look f**king stupid.

I think the reasoning is that employee rights cost big business profits.
If you scrap health and safety, holidays, minimum wages and compensation, you get a more unregulated free market, more profit and the sort of society Truss and all those based at 55 Tufton Street are keen on.

That's probably it, but I imagine even racists would be pretty pissed off if you removed their right to paid holiday and sick pay. The reason the Tories have been reluctant to take that path, despite being able to post-Brexit, is that they know it would alienate a lot of their own voters.
She was speaking today at the right-wing Heritage Foundation in the States.
According to Wikipedia-
The Heritage Foundation rejects the scientific consensus on climate change. The Heritage Foundation is one of many climate change denial organizations that have been funded by ExxonMobil.
The Heritage Foundation has promoted false claims of voter fraud, and is at the forefront of present efforts to restrict voting rights.
The Heritage Foundation has engaged in several activities in opposition to transgender rights, including hosting several anti-transgender rights event.
An off-shoot, Heritage Action opposed the $40 billion military aid package for Ukraine passed in May 2022 after the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
When I was growing up, the Monday Club was seen (even within Conservative circles) as the slightly barking (right) wing of the Tory Party. These days organisations like it, both here and in the States, largely drive the agenda. It really is true that the lunatics have taken over the asylum

Doesn't look likely, the latest poll in her constituency has her leading the race with over 50% of the vote.
When Rishi goes I reckon she will have another pop at the Conservative leadership gig.
Farke me, we’re utterly screwed aren’t we? Let’s vote in Gary Glitter as Minister for Children while we’re at it. His songs were great*, so no need to worry about whether he’s appropriate or competent.
For bombing the economy £50BN (last so saw that estimate had been upped to £70BN) and loading hundreds of pounds a month onto people’s mortgages, she should be facing charges not re-election.
