Just three days ago, Liz Truss without parliamentary protection claimed that Jess Phillips was in part culpable for the rape of children

Now here she is trying to use legal means to get Keir Starmer to stop pointing out that she wrecked the economy…

If she only had a brain.

Reposted from Sunder Katwala (sundersays)

Liz Truss has a very weak prospect of success via legal means here

The only companion Dorothy met on the way to the Emerald City was Liz, who had no heart, no brain and was a coward.

plasticscouser.bsky.social•56 days ago

She could hardly frame her economic policies as a success. The Bank of England had to step in to sure up the markets. Should have read this book before she started

diannebancroft.bsky.social•56 days ago

Expect Badenoch to send similar to Starmer then only saying “Cease and desist from mentioning the state of the entire country”🤦‍♀️😂

Isn’t “the people with the different coloured tie wrecked the economy” part of the script for an incoming government?

thewatchfulcook.bsky.social•56 days ago

Sir Keir can do without this distraction but frankly I needed a laughable distraction this morning.
I wonder she can dress herself.

… a weak prospect of success? As strong as weak?

joshfwd.bsky.social•56 days ago

Is she trying to say that campaigning against her in an election by ‘saying things about her’ isn’t fair?

Wild wild hypocrisy.

No, a donut has a use.

She's a Heritage foundation/ Cato Institute trouble maker. She has no other role, but to disrupt the peace, prosperity & smooth functioning of anything that isn't in US big oils interests. Expose her for what she is.

signoramac.bsky.social•56 days ago

Truss worked for Gove at the DfE in 2012 as Under Secretary 2 and launched the More Affordable Childcare policy...the rest is history. So very few ever point to that huge failure. She never had any brains but was afforded the highest position as PM and then wrecked the economy 😬

Rory Stewart worked for her at Environment. He is not complimentary of the experience.

This is a little montage of her best bits from you tube.

It really shouldn't have got any further in life after the pork markets speech.

honesty for someone who didn't last as long as a lettuce, you would think she would go hide, live off her parlimetary pension (🤬🤬🤬🤬) & just be quiet.
She is a pub quiz question & a total laughing stock. Someone needs to sit her down, give her a fisher price phone and keep her from the public.

So pleased we've left WEF nuts behind in t'other place. Spent my last day on there arguing with them that it's just a talking shop, albeit influential. Told them about AIPAC, Atlas, Heritage, IEA, Policy Exchange, the TPA... think that blew their tiny brains. Didn’t even get started on Koch👀

grahambarber.bsky.social•56 days ago

I think Scarecrow has a stronger claim to a brain than LIz Truss, as she would be even more dangerous if she had one.

Maybe I missed it, but I don't recall the media getting worked up over her claims about Jess Phillips. They certainly helped stimulate Musk into his diatribe.

victoria1921.bsky.social•56 days ago

Just doing a brief refresh of actual FACTS here, but wasn't crashing the economy the reason Truss initially sacked Kwasi Kwarteng and when that wasn't enough, resigned in disgrace?

mazza66.bsky.social•56 days ago

She was made to go. By the opaque 1922 committee of Tory insiders.

disxt.bsky.social•55 days ago

There needs to be a 'so what' for her actions & behaviour

disxt.bsky.social•56 days ago

Given she resigned due to the catastrophe she caused, this seems quite funny. 000s of people will be suffering the consequences of her decisions for years!

michaelwi.bsky.social•56 days ago

Exactly this. It wasn’t just Labour that claimed she crashed the economy. It was her own party who accused her. It’s why they put in letters of no confidence and sacked her.

mazza66.bsky.social•56 days ago

She was made to resign, by the opaque 1922 committee.
Can't work out if she's in Denial, or doesn't understand how unfunded tax cuts for Corps sent markets into freefall, sent sterling tumbling & int rates had to rise to protect the ccy🤔

Truss is astonishingly tin-eared and oblivious to the facts. She and Kwarteng crashed the economy in their eagerness to follow Tufton St. directives and prove themselves to be assets to the billionaires.

Cease & desist! How dare you say that! She went for growth! And got maket crash! 🤣🤣😂

stephenswan.bsky.social•56 days ago

Well, she did crash the economy. Her mini budget was disastrous for the UK. She severely damaged UK pensions funds, and pushed up people’s mortgage rates (some had mortgage offers withdrawn), it forced people’s rent up too. And the Bank of England had to intervene to stabilise the markets.

mazza66.bsky.social•56 days ago

And what was the cost? Was hundreds of billions, can anyone recall?

I have £22 billion in my head, but that's a budget Black hole also of Tory making .
