[Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

[The Clamp]

In the longer term on energy supply, Truss said, the UK needed to “take the difficult decisions to ensure we are not in this position every autumn and winter”, adding: “Sticking plasters and kicking the can down the road will not do.”

Truss has, again, not set out what this would involve, but she has expressed support for an increase in nuclear power, new efforts to drill in the North Sea, and the approval of fracking for shale gas. In contrast she is more sceptical about renewable energy, opposing onshore windfarms and solar power schemes on former agricultural land.

Nice that she used the term “we”. It won’t be her at all;

“Truss will pay under £2,000 for Downing Street winter energy bills, Labour says
State subsidies for No 10 and No 11 mean she will be insulated from soaring energy costs for households“

This is like a new 20 million pound striker signing on deadline day. Very exciting. Mrs Truss will be unveiled as our new leader shortly.

Congratulations Liz.

Maybe a bit more like replacing Mark Farrington with Daman Hilton, but i'll wish her all the luck in the world, which she'll undoubtedly need.

Actually this is like spending £20m on a striker on deadline day and it turns out to be Leon Best on crutches

Lots of self indulgent waffle.

Truss is leader, a new mare for the UK begins

There was no way the Tory membership would ever elect a leader of colour. Just impossible

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

That’s a lot closer than was being made out.

Not sure that’s going to help any splits in the party.

O well.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Thick as mince idiot takes over from corrupt buffoon. HELP

 

[severnside gull]

She’s saying all the things to keep the ERG in charge and to alienate the majority of the nation.

 

[cjd]

Awful acceptance speech. She has no idea how to read the room.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Well done Liz!

WE WILL DELIVER.

And the mental cow takes it.


God help us all.

Utter shitemare. Another one who’d fail the sociopath test.

 

[dejavuatbtn]

God help us.

Harsh, truly Churchillian

A level of incompetence never seen before….
