Funny, I just watched that and came on here to post the link. He has it exactly right. Remember - he’s a Tory and former award-winning journo on the Daily Telegraph. Remember that when you’re watching.

[Psaw]

Truss is useless. You cant make it up.

It was strange but heartwarming watching her throw Kwartang under the bus last week, now we’re watching the new Chancellor do the same to both Truss and her policies, If I were a member (God forbid) of the Conservative Party right now I’d want my money back. Every promise made to give reason to why they chose her as PM trashed but, let’s remember, the Tories have never been very good at sticking to manifesto promises, have they?

Frank, did you watch it? You really should; it isn’t flattering to Labour either.

In effect the promises she made during her leadership campaign were aimed at former UKIP supporters.

Tory party members are a minuscule and wholly unrepresentative portion of the electorate.

The Conservative Party was once a relatively broad church, but since 2016 it has been taken over by a narrow cult - the ERG and UKIP. The Conservative equivalent of Militant Tendency.

Until they kick these far right cults out of the Party and get back to the centre ground I suspect they will be finished electorally.

Some folk are saying that Jeremy C­unt is now in charge, put there by the folk who are genuinely in charge of the Conservative Party, such as a majority of the couple of dozen of the members of the top 1% of the wealth of the country.
I mean 'old money' coming down the generations from several hundred years ago and new self-made billionaires.

I have watched it, im always suspicious of conspiracies. Any fing idiot could see that what she did was wrong, even rich people. Do rich people want to desttroy the conservatives, of course not.

It may be true, maybe not, i put it down to Truss and qwarteng being incredibly stupid.

What did she think the reaction would be?

FFS.
