Documents had to be “Truss proofed” to make sure they were simple enough for her to understand before they were handed over to her.

She’s madder and thicker than Mad Mick Thicko McMad pushing a clown car through molasses in a hall of mirrors with a Tesco bag on his head and cabbage stuck in his ears yelling “Slave Girls, 50 bob a lump”! at the Maddest and Thickest world championships held on the same day we voted to Leave the EU.

I did the staying up thing when Kinnock was expected to win. Young, heart on sleeve, and rather unaware of how economics need to work in those days. I felt heartbroken when it all went tits up.

Now having voted Tory ever since Blair was ousted I will certainly not be doing so this time around. Either Labour or not bother, probably the former as I do like a strong government.

The polls in the 12 months leading upto the 1992 election were much closer though. Labour's lead was somewhere between 0-5% if you took an average of pollsters, and it got closer throughout the campaign, during which you have to say John Major did superbly. Labour have led all polls since November 2021 and if you average them have been in the region of 20% ahead for 17-18 months now. In football terms, Labout are 4-0 up in the 80th and just need to not doing anything silly (whatever the political equivalent of passing it around at the back too much is).

Whatever you do, use your vote.

I've just watched a thread of clips from CPAC and it is full of REALLY weird people saying REALLY weird stuff such as loads of people get killed by wind farms, Bill Clinton was the first black US president and Joe Biden is going to take away hamburgers. It's like a cult!

What she said when you move past the yellow media headlines..

"
She went on to say that “we have a major problem with our administrative bureaucracy, and I think it’s got a lot worse”.

Ms Truss added: “Now people are joining the Civil Service who are essentially activists, they might be trans activists, they might be environmental extremists, but they are now having a voice within the Civil Service in a way I don’t think was true 30 or 40 years ago, so we just have a wholly new problem.”

Doesn't sound to weird, in line with a 2 speed police force which Braverman pointed out.

I certainly think that it has already been proven that Liz Truss and Suella Braverman are the two most insightful political commentators in the UK today :laugh:

If she wasn’t talking utter bullshit, as you do, she may have a point. But she is, you are, and she doesn’t.

Suella Braverman at it again and surprised it was even allowed to be printed. If "Islamists" was substituted to "Jews/Judaism" there would rightly be complete uproar and a Police investigation at the minimum.

Disgusting rhetoric

Thinking about writing to The Telegraph to express my concerns that there are too many devisive daughters of Kenyan and Mauritian parents (who have a history of using antisemitic terminology). slagging off UK citizens.

My grandparents were Mauritian immigrants who moved here, my great grandfather was Iraqi. My Mum is a Mauritian daughter who hates everyone equally… be like Mauritian daughters.

I love the idea of hating everyone equally as the default position...

Working up from that level is egalitarian.

Almost 50% of people are worse than average

I like your mum x
