She's more, 'tin head,' than 'tin-eared.'

These people have no mortgages, no debt, know and exploit all the tax loopholes that no politicians want to terminate. On top of that most politicians regard being an MP as their second job which ' RAISES THEIR PROFILE'. They use their MP's pay and expenses to employ friends and

Liz Truss asking the country for forgiveness!

We've enough people already who criticise her so who cares what he or she thinks she should be on the fecking dole!!!

In which respect has Rishi Sunak got on with the difficult job of governing? Are you going to bring back the natural gas storage that you phased out? Give people grants for home insulation? And Putin is guilty of a lot, but you mismanaged the health system all by yourselves.

Grant Shapps keeps blaming the war in Ukraine and Covid for the current situation in the UK. But in truth it is 13 years of failed Conservatives energy policy on our own shores added to completely unnecessary lockdowns and furlough. They wasted so much money for nothing.

Right priorities really this is the person who is happy to press the button

Mr rsekisser.... Edging his bets, as usual.

Plenty of others can do that for him.

Oh she felt with them, the elite just didn't like the fact she was about to undo all their work and give money back to the peasants

Clearly wants a job when Sunak gets deposed. Who'd have thought that a man with multiple aliases can't be trusted to be honest!?

SHE TANKED THE ECONOMY

So why are there far too few adverts on Netflix then? They’re the bestist bits most of the time, innit – Booh!

Says the person whose only priority is self promotion.

So there is still £45bn available for tax cuts for the rich? Interesting.

Right priorities grantshapps - for WHOM? Deregulation of financial services, cutting public services, raising the pension age, cutting tax for big business and high earners…🤔

Statement from Michael Green?

What help get the rich, richer and let them philanthropically throw the odd pennies to the less well off to work harder for less! Not a plan that’s got any merits or decency in my book! The inflation and cost of living crisis sits firmly at the greedy, selfish government of 13yrs

Her entire economic policy was based on a book on selective Reaganomics, in which the writer was taking the piss. Lizz never got that bit.

Liz was the anti growth coalition, its effects are still rippling.

She tanked the economy!

Sorry, way more simple, she was a shite and weak PM.

Grant Shapps says Liz Truss had right priorities but failed as she did not deal with 'big structural issues'... that various Conservative administrations had failed to deal with over the previous twelve years? Ridge

Need to make a reality show about politicians. Proper bitching about each other 😂😂
