It’s policy that will save the Tory’s or not as the case may be.
She might not be a rock star but if she has the policies and implements quickly then she’ll do fine.

Anyone watching this bun fight? Sunak is clearly the class act - sharp as a razor but deeply tainted and having to stir s**t to close the back. Truss as wooden and witless as it gets - just can’t warm to her - but has the support of the Tory blue rinse brigade. Heard there is a campaign to bring Boris back as well. After these two taking lumps out of each other ... can’t see the Tories recovering for a decade ... unfortunately with Captain Hindsight in charge can’t see Labour taking advantage ....
What a state British politics is in ....

Truss deserves the opportunity between the two but would have stuck with Johnson!
Starmer is more wooden than Truss. Blair like Sunak was charming but both are snakes!

Perfectly put Mick!!! Couldn’t have said it better! Sunak is a complete snake!

I just like to have leaders who inspire. Thatcher did for a while. Boris did for a while. Even Blair did for a while. In Truss I just see another Brown, May type of Government ... one which will end in ultimate failure ... maybe I am wrong ... she actually has a nice smile when not under pressure ...

Rather have an unsmiling Truss than a slimy, smarmy, corrupt cheating rich boy whose Non Dom wife is screwing the system - even if you say it’s legal! I bet the Non Dom can’t wait to restart her million pounds worth of investments in Russia! How much cash do greedy t wats want?

Hardly inspiring was it?
To be fair, if the solution to economic problems was easy it would have been solved long ago. I agree with Truss that higher corporation tax will not help businesses to grow and that there is a need for Thatcher-esque style policies to help them, but I find it equally hard not to agree with Sunak that the extended borrowing her policies entail will ultimately lead to higher interest rates.
As for all the New Conservative talk of " levelling up" with better investment in deprived areas and improved education and the creation of better opportunities, this is all well and good but just don't expect this to involve any kind of wealth redistribution or to be part funded by higher taxation of the very rich or their companies.

The beat choice, in my opinion, would have been Penny Mordaunt but she was too popular amongst the grass roots of the Tory Party, so Sunak and Truss put the dirty tricks operation into top gear by using switched, tactical voting to keep her out.

Didn't watch the debate. Just logged in to say I find them both thoroughly repugnant and now I'm off to log one out. 'Bye kids and remember to play nicely 😊 .

Didn't watch it either. I'm not in favour of this type of debate on TV. I think that it's better to judge any candidate on their past records and not what they say they intend to do. I realise this can be difficult as we are not privy to everything that they have done or believe. As for these two candidates, I can't stand Sunak and not sure about Truss. Just glad I'm not a Tory Party member and haven't got a vote.
