[Politics] Liz Truss **RESIGNS 20/10/2022**

[Live by the sea]

Bring back Boris ! Good for a laugh if nothing else .

I wonder if it will be a "delayed" resignation - ie leaving but staying in post until X date so we can sort a few things out and work out who on earth we're going to get to replace.

presumably, she'll stay on to steal as much as she can

I didn't read all the posts in this lengthy thread.

2015 and 2017 weren't far left. 2019 wasn't on the face of it either.

That was the only point I was trying to make a few posts/pages back. Nice to get quickly to a point of agreement.

How would you feel if it was one of the cretinous Corbynites being called a c**t? If the same, then fair enough.

i enjoy the straightforwardness of anyone who calls a charlie charlson a c*nt

Do you think they ever imagined it would end like this 44 days ago?

Complete shit show.

Lasted exactly as long as Brian Clough lasted at Leeds. SPOOKY!

I agree and it’s fine for message boards, not too sure if I like impartial mainstream media veterans using that language. But I take your point.

What's the podium done to upset you?

it propped up bungle**** through his entire shambolic administration

 

[albionfan37]

Absolute shambles this party

Just call a general election and let the people put you out yer misery

 

[rogersix]

OK so she resigns... what next?

Jeremy Hunt caretaker? what strange times we are living in.

could they be more unprofessional? in these tumultuous times as well

 

[rogersix]

You lot who voted Tory - are you happy?

everyone who voted for this shower of shit needs a bit of quiet time to have a little think

Her statement was SO odd. This weird smile throughout it and basically went on the rhetoric that she isn't able to govern how she wanted now.

UMMMMM Liz.......you did what you wanted to do straight away and f***ed IT UP. It's not all your mean colleagues fault for asking you to change things back to try and undo the damage you did and were CLEARLY told would do during the leadership campaign by the guy who actually understood the economy.

Still, you smile away, don't worry about our mortgages and silly stuff like that.

Urgh. That was a political rant. I feel dirty.

Not a bad pay off for completely failing in your 44 days as PM, £115k a year for the rest of your life. No wonder Truss was still smiling when she made her statement today.

She didn't have to be in post for 2 months or something? I'm sure the rules could be bent for her in any case

The European Research Group effectively control the party, able to blackball any candidate they consider as an enemy or having slighted Boris. They therefore control the UK.

A tiny number of zealots. This is unjust to this nation.

I feel I could write a speech that Starmer should now make, with genuine emotion, to win all the remaining hearts and minds of sensible politicians and the public.

Not in the Commons, not in his staid barrister's style with the same old one-liners.

He could seize this moment.

Yep…..heard his speech this morning. So ****ing DULL. He should be tearing into them rather than doing his ‘vicar at a funeral’ impression.

It's high time for something uncontroversial to calm the troubled waters of political threads on NSC - so I'll give it a go ...........


Liz Truss was a rubbish PM. Everybody OK with that?

Wasn’t he put in charge of a bunch of selfish, entitled, knobheads as well ?

Whoa, steady now. No need for that kind of comment. Jeez.

Tory MP Brendan Clark-Smith making a passionate case for Boris returning as PM, carrying on with their 2019 election mandate, literally as if nothing has happened. I almost admired him doing it with a straight face, or no embarrassment. Incredible.

Think she was more of a puppet and had no idea. GE now required

BBC seems to have an endless supply of political correspondents all desperate for a slice of the action today
