“That is the huge dagger at the heart of the Conservative Party's election chances.”

A “terrific defeat” for the Conservatives “must be in the interests of Liz Truss” and her wing of the party, who continue to make the case for the 'Truss agenda'.

    I’m pushing ninety. I have never been so disgusted with the performance of any government in all my time. The Conservatives do not have a chance.
  • I'll give her one thing, she's right in saying we have ten years to save the West but that is by ensuring the Tories are kept out of power.
  • @crowbar9566
    Slight whiff of power and she went full megalomaniac
  • Where's his evidence that the Tories are economically competent and 'prudent' with the nation's finances? Every time they get into power, the country's infrastructure and vital services fall to bits. Or are infrastructure and vital services not part of the economy?
  • It won’t be the men in grey suits who give her advice, it will be the men in white coats who take her away!

    I'm glad Liz is still exposing herself on the national stage - let's get Boris, May and the whole motley of fools together as a reminder of the "best" that this party can offer

    People are sleeping on the streets can't afford to pay their bills and we're wasting our lives talking about this waste of space

    I'm not sure she could lower the Conservative Party’s election chances if she tried. They are already out of the gutter and well down the drain on their way to the river outfall.
  • Journalists should NEVER go for dinner or drinks with ANY politician, good or bad. Your job is to hold them to account .
  • Having Liv Struss doing that audiobook would almost make worth listening to. Not that I will anyway because I have to pay a lot more money on my mortgage now
  • @Beef_Curtains
    She should be in prison for all the misery she caused.
  • @XxBloggs
    You'd think this failure of a woman would disappear and hide from the public stage forever. What a waste of space.
  • @Andrew-dm8mk
    She obviously hasn’t thought things out by publishing her book, she has single handedly uncovered the Conservatives agenda. Congratulations Liz Thank you for showing the Conservatives true colours.
  • I listened to the lettuce speaking this afternoon in the House Of Commons when they were debating the proposed smoking ban. I have read that 2/3rds of the population support the ban. Over 70% of Conservative voters support the smoking ban. She had the bare brass neck to claim that large chunks of her party are not listening to the public. I don't know what Lizzie Lettuce has been smoking but I don't think it's Dunhill Luxury Length.
  • She was part of their imminent catastrophe, and will be remembered for being the shortest serving PM and the most inept! flushed!
