The woman who bragged about pork markets in Beijing.

Headlines in the Taiwan Telegraph, the day after her visit;
We Welcome Our New Overlords

So, what happens is the clever Tory chaps prevail on grinning Liz to grant Spaffer a lordship?

Haven’t read the article but its probably as amusing as the headline

Comical Ali (of the Telegraph) - Fractally Wrong.

Whatever lunatic plutocrat purchases the Telegraph, Heath’s job will be safe.

I was in Liz’s constituency yesterday and read ‘wanted paper boy or girl’ they’ve gone woke in Downham Market. Must be few places where paper rounds are still viable and need a high level of Mail reading pensioners at a guess. Who vote fucking lunatics like Liz Truss into power. If there’s a paper round, play safe and don’t move there.

A lot of easy money coming Liz's way here.

Thanks, Liz.

The controversial sacking of top Treasury civil servant Sir Tom Scholar cost the government £457,000 in compensation, PA news reports.

The department’s annual accounts reveal Scholar, who was dismissed as permanent secretary when Liz Truss came to power in September 2022, received a £335,000 severance payment along with £122,000 in annual leave adjustments, payment in lieu of notice and other payments.

About all we're missing is a tweet from Susan Hall cheering the sacking on. Then again, I haven't looked yet.

According to the Daily Express Liz Truss was 'debanked' by Monzo bank when she contested the Tory leadership contests because she was regarded as a PEP. All I can say is that Monzo clearly knew more about Liz than all the melts in the Tory Party who elected her as leader.

Barmy headline a year ago.

Pitch for wingnut welfare, nothing else.

Remember that crazy pastor woman who did the big over the top "pray for Trump" thing, with her apparently miming wanking off an elephant? You ever see her and Truss together?

Of all the people to say "who pays your wages?", I think a politician is probably in the worst position.

This would be quite something even if she hadn't crashed and burned.

Be interested to know how often Liz Truss breaks out of the M25 and puts on her wellies to visit South West Norfolk. She’s very quiet about it if she is a regular visitor.

Yeah, she was so stuck for "cred", she had to reinvent her school as being an inner city sink school.

I'm wondering what taxes she has in mind that aren't paid in North London but are in Dartford and Stoke. The tax system has its faults but it's actually reasonably progressive overall. So a "tax and spend" elite man isn't actually dumping all the cost on poor workers.

Real people, makers of things, white flight.

It's just "who remembers proper binmen?".
