The court case to determine whether the Rwanda transports are legal or not began today. I imagine Patel is using Truss’ appointment as cover for resigning over the Rwanda matter.

I doubt this, because:
1, they might release rumours to journalists, but that's something quite different from calling a no-confidence vote
2, the Tories still have a big majority (even if it is very slowly reducing in size)
20 (or so) months it is, I suspect.

TalkRadio reckon (guessing) John Redwood will be an advisor.
Is he ever going to quietly retire? He was shite in the 90’s.

I was listening to TR in the car and genuinely immediately thought of that too
Even the Tory voters I knew in the 90’s, took the p out of relentless boring anti European Redwood.

She knows she was not going to get a job, she chose the time of her ending, the only power she had left.
The first of many job losses under Truss.

My prediction is that Truss will implement some kind of short term energy cost relief and then spend two years saying she got the big decisions right, a la Boris Johnson.
When in fact she should be fighting for better wages and a £15 minimum wage so that people are not in the position of having g to choose which children to feed and whether they can heat their home or not.
Wages need to go up, costs need to come down. End of.

The big con going on is that the energy companies were making BILLIONS whilst we had a £2,000pa energy price cap. They then say it'll go up to £3,500 and we all drop to the floor in horror...
The Tories then come charging in on their white horses to save us peasants and wrestle the energy companies back down to £2,000. We all stare in wonderment, wring our hands and doff our caps in thanks.
The energy companies quietly go about making BILLIONS as they did before, but this time we're grateful.
We're being conned, and it's a plan....

They will be kicking the can down the road and we'll all pay later. The primary producers will continue to make billions.
They will try and spin it as looking after ordinary folk. Big business and mystery funded think tanks will be pulling the strings.

could read this, including the side panel, for some understanding, and why they are in danger of going bust at the same time as reporting profits. https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https://www.ft.com/content/1e411910-45fa-475a-bbe6-9e9c76594778

The most curious thing..
Who wants to pay £2000 a year for energy for the next decade?

Or is she just resigning so that she can trumpet that she went of her own volition before she was sacked by Truss to be replaced, so they say, by the potentially (almost certainly) even worse Suella Braverman.
Even worse in that she probably wants to go further in all the extreme policies that Patel has pursued, but also even worse in that she is probably even less capable.

Zero charisma!!!! she's hardly a stunning orator! I like Keir Starmer but realise that he is not the most exciting person on the planet, but Liz Truss makes him seem wonderfully exciting.
And she needs a new speech-writer.

Am I the only one concerned that Liz Truss,s biggest backers were Jacob Rees Mogg and Nadine Dories..?
Both of whom would happily have had Boris Johnsons babies.
The incoming new PM is clearly out of her depth...so who is next in line 12 months time ..?
