Liz Truss referred to Nicola Sturgeon as an 'attention seeker' and responded 'no, no, no' when asked about the prospect of another Scottish independence referendum if she were to become PM

Penny Mordaunt backs Liz Truss for PM

"I want to reform the corporate tax system. Liz Truss' policies on corporate taxation are exactly the failed Treasury orthodoxy of the last 10 years, which hasn't worked. I want to change it and grow the economy," he said. "As they've already done in some trusts, we can use software automation and AI to massively rip through all of the triaging and processing of them and clear up the lists, and that's going to clear up processing times."

The foreign secretary said she will launch a"war on waste", scrapping diversity and inclusion jobs, tackling"the injustice of taxpayers being forced to fund trade union facility time and making sure civil servants are focused on delivering front line services.

“Attention seeker”……pot calling the kettle black me thinks.

HATERS OF LIBERTY...royal THIEVES of UK. '.....their fruits you SHALL KNOW THEM'. LIBERTY, THE GREATEST FEAR OF GLOBALIST!. WhiteHouse VP TheBlackCaucus USSupremeCourt USinNigeria USUN StateDept HouseForeignGOP SenateGOP

Lizzie, If they get yet another referrendum can there be another one re EU?

However, she has balls (apparently). Smiling with that Thatcher-esque! look. But also the Nazi salute almost tells a story in itself! Sieg heil! Sieg heil! Sieg heil!

PMT has that effect on women! Next week she'll be round to Nic's, swapping knitting patterns and getting pissed on some Glascow corner! Can't wait for the first face off between these 2 cats. On a personal note, I'd much prefer WWIII than Miss Trust as leader!

Don’t worry she will do a U-turn, she’s no Margaret Thatcher.

Support Liz4Leader Make UK 🇬🇧 great

Bring it on. Bitter little England leader daring to tell Scotland it will not be allowed to leave their 💩 bitter union!

Nice salut / wave that. Might catch on. (Someone picked that pic deliberately)

Liz Truss shows every indication of being an even better asset for independence than Boris Johnson. Its not Nicola Sturgeon or the SNP that she is 'just going to ignore' she is putting herself on a collision course with the people of Scotland. We won't accept dictatorship.

It is totally disrespectful for a potential future Prime Minister to speak of another in this way. She spoke with contempt. This will not go down well with the people of Scotland whether a Nicola Sturgeon supporter or not. Not the best way to unite the UK is it?

Absolutely 💯 spot on!

Like millions of British people who will ignore her too.

Scots will hate her worse than Boris

Ignore a democratically elected official that has seen out three Tory leaders!! She does so at her peril.

😲 so she's just wrote off all those Scottish people who voted for Nicola Sturgeon nice move! Liz

But at the last referendum Nicola agreed that won't be another one the party aggred.

Truss is a desperado appealing to right wing facist Tories. She’s like Johnston cut from rotten same cloth! Let’s see how long her or Sunak remain as PM. Tories are on borrowed time. Tick tock ToriesUnfitToGovern ToriesOut26

That is brilliant “an attention seeker “ ScumMedia will be applauding Nicolas reaction for the next 6 months in sympathy of her. Time to end devolved governments.

Attention seeker calls out an attention seeker in an attention seeking moment.......

Spot on.

Days since the SNP last won an election in Scotland: 88 Days since the Tories last won an election in Scotland: 24588 Yet Liz Truss says the SNP Government and First Minister Nicola Sturgeon should be 'ignored.'

One minute she says 'we are all one big family ' the next she says let's ignore our sister .

So she believes that the English should forever choose on behalf of the Scots what they are allowed to do in their own country....

Well that pledge lasted barely 24 hours. How can she pledge to put Scotland at the ‘Heart of the Union’ by ignoring its DEMOCRATICALLY elected leader? It also shows that any promises made during the referendum campaign will be absolutely meaningless!

This woman as PM, heaven help us.

🦕🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸

Liz Truss has no self awareness. I’d be laughing if it wasn’t so dangerous.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 she is asking for the old days

I’m a Scot. I don’t like Nicola but a potential leader of the UK saying something like that about the leader of Scotland should disqualify her from leadership.

Nicola is more intelligent than the whole cabinet.

NicolaSturgeon might be an attention seeker but she's still the first minister of Scotland & they wounder way people in Scotland don't like politicians in Westminster

2.2 million Scots voted for Nicola Sturgeon to become FM 100k+ will Vote for Liz Truss to become PM Democracy in the UK. What a gift!

Well said Liz. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 We must protect the union

😅😅😅😅😅 amazing

Really?! You’re now saying this after my tweet! Unbelievable!

Yep

There’s not one person criticising her who was ever a supporter of her, the Tory Party or the Union, or who ever would be. She’s said no to a second referendum, as have the majority of Scots and the leaders of both main UK political parties. Twitter is not the real world.

That might play well to the ancients and incontinents and senility of the Conservative members but it’s a great way to get the Scots out of the uk, bullying and belittling is counter productive and will only increase Sturgeon’s strength

Sounds about right to me, Sturgeon does NOT represent, or speak for the vast majority of Scots, she speaks for herself, CONSTANTLY

Its hard to believe that Boris Johnson isnt going to be the least intelligent PM the UK has ever had. People also wondering why dim witted Liz is dodging Andrew Neil, Andrews already toasted her numerous times in interviews. She dont want that smoke again.

Hope everyone is enjoying the amateur dramatics! The acting is shit, the script is badly written (a common problem when the writers are sociopaths) and only the bleaters are enthralled.

She’ll regret this. Totally disrespectful and proves how unfit the English conservatives have become for office. I’m embarrassed for the English at this stage.

Idiot

Obviously it played well with the geriatric Tories in Exeter [and those few remaining north of the border] but I doubt it'll go down well with anyone else.

A massive own goal that has shown many scots just how little the tories care for scotland.
