When Truss first won, I predicted the following…
Liz Truss is a free market acolyte who hated BoJos windfall taxes on obscene profits because she is pro corporate profit.
Ideologically she is Margaret Thatcher on meth combined with all the ill deserved smugness of Tony Blair.
She will be a disaster for the UK and her free market solutions will cause a crippling wave of unemployment at a time of 13% inflation and energy prices exploding beyond peoples ability to pay.
…lo and behold, Kwasi implemented a crazy far right agenda that was so off the charts that the market itself said ‘no way’ and plunged the UK into a self inflicted economic death spiral.
Truss has suddenly this weekend removed Kwasi and is now treading water as the inevitable failures of her right wing Maggie Thatcher routine all come home to roost.
This is why Boris was smarter. His windfall taxes while an anathema to the right of his party, kept all the Labour electorates in the North that he had won over with Brexit (and whom were alienated by the younger left who attacked them as racist).
Labour are currently soaring 19 point ahead of the Tories and it is simply a matter of time before the Conservatives dump Truss and beg for Boris to come back and save them.
The UK economy will collapse and there will be anarchy in UK.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.

And just as likely, there’ll be a rush for flights to NZ by Blairite public servants anxious to come and show us how to run our administrative and policy agencies and lobby groups.
It’ll be fascinating darling. Global Revolving Doors 2.0
Boris was a good PM. With some minor faults. It’s unfortunate the Tories have had to go through the Truss experience, to realize how much they miss and need Boris.
Another country far away, why waste any time wondering if she is going to last longer than a head of lettuce or not.
We should as why in (reportedly starving) Brexitstan a head of lettuce (mist likely imported from neighbouring continent) costs less than half than locally grown here in our clean and green 100% pure Ripoffistan.
But no, we will not ask that. We are busy celebrating the return of carbon, particulates and effluent dumping bonded labour crewed floating infection superspreader eyesores.
There is only one real UK politician that tells it like it is and that’s Clare Daley. All the rest are insignificant, really, and I find Truss to be a caricature – woman in power with a paper brain. I’d say she’s marginally better looking than the milk snatcher but both have been written on by the extra-terrestrial feedback from the lattice of satellites we have caged ourselves in. https://earthsky.org/space/voyager-1-mystery-random-telemetry-data/
Scientists have shown data can be sent back in time (we MUST follow the science), bearing that in mind https://bigthink.com/hard-science/particle-time-travel/ and how “the market itself said ‘no way’ “, not only scientists but also the ft community would take full advantage of this closely guarded secret.
The market being what it is, consider Timnit Gebru’s informed opinion: https://www.aljazeera.com/program/talk-to-al-jazeera/2022/8/6/timnit-gebru-is-ai-racist-and-antidemocratic and we may become a little less enthusiastic about all the unregulated ‘scientific’ activity- oh, wait, I think we are already……
