AshVilla Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Like we all knew that Truss would be a car crash. But did anyone expect her to do this badly. Mistake after mistake, U-turn after u-turn. She is massively out of her depth. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistake after mistake, U-turn after u-turn. She is massively out of her depth. The only question was about just how much of a disaster she would be. It was never in question that it would go badly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Should there not be some sort of legislation to prevent this kind of thing? I know you vote for a party, but surely that doesn't allow them free reign to do the sort of things they've done since Boris won. How can we not have a general election at this point? How much damage do they get to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) So basically she is now in the position where the stuff she told conservative members to get the job re: not raising corporation tax was a complete load of bull. Not only did she do all this without a mandate from the people but she is now also reneging on the commitments to her own party members to get her the job in the first place. Just do the humane thing and give her both barrels she's done. Edited October 14, 2022 by AshVilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, our system is built so that you don't really vote for a party - you vote for a representative for your constituency, an individual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in an area that you could reanimate the corpse of Jimmy Savile and as long as you pinned a blue rosette to it certain people would vote for him. As it is my MP looks like a face drawn on a balloon and as far as I can tell has never done anything of note in the HoC other than agree with whatever the current PM is saying Lichfield is it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ml1dch Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Just to recap, Sunak was still Chancellor in July, and we've had three more since then. I think I've probably still got socks somewhere that I haven't washed in that time frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
