I pity the poor fool who stinks like I do!

She's right, it's a slippery slope towards a war on drugs isn't it?Ms Truss told the BBC's Political Editor Chris Mason that plans to phase out smoking over time were "unconservative".
She said "we should absolutely protect children from damage and danger while they are developing decision-making capabilities", but added: "We're a free country.
"We shouldn't be telling people not to smoke and I worry about where it will lead."
That quote...:The excerpt is quite interesting. Certainly underlines how blinkered Truss was by ideology and how paranoid she was about her colleagues.
The dig at Gove having 'anti-growth instincts' made me laugh.
'We didn't know Britain was sitting on a financial tinderbox': Who's to blame for the bond market meltdown that torpedoed her premiership? Everyone, says LIZ TRUSS, in her blistering new memoir

...really underlines the problem. She didn't see this as overwhelming evidence that all the intelligence suggested that her ideas were terrible, but as an anti-Conservative conspiracy.Part of the problem we faced was a distinct shortage of expert voices supporting our agenda.
That’s a remarkable line. Astonishing really.That quote...:

Harsh on @PexboI see the fecking thicko is back doing the rounds. Deluded twat.
Two headline articles on the BBC website. Two. One for her support of Trump and another from the political editor discussing six key points from her new book. As if her opinion on anything should carry any fecking weight whatsoever. She is the worst PM this country has had in modern times, and that is an impressive feat considering the competition.I see the fecking thicko is back doing the rounds. Deluded twat.
You could literally shit yourself on live TV, cry running off the stage screaming "I've no idea what I'm doing" and then 6 months later be invited on every single news show to discuss the current political climate.Two headline articles on the BBC website.

Did that get disclosed at the start of the interview?He published the book! He doesn’t operate it day to day, but he still co-owns Biteback Publishing.
No idea. Probably not. Dale is a really weird dude. Nasty piece of work. One of those old school ‘I’m above this’ Tories.Did that get disclosed at the start of the interview?
She has the same vibe about the environment and equality. Basically that they're full of actual experts rather than people who agree with the governmentThat quote...:

Yup, and I really hate how accurate this is.You could literally shit yourself on live TV, cry running off the stage screaming "I've no idea what I'm doing" and then 6 months later be invited on every single news show to discuss the current political climate.
Didn't even mean the first part as a metaphor for Truss but it is accurate.
That would be extremely poor of the producers at LBC not to explain that if it's true.No idea. Probably not. Dale is a really weird dude. Nasty piece of work. One of those old school ‘I’m above this’ Tories.
I checked. They didn’t. The whole section was a disgrace. Listen to these softball questions and watch a human being try to decipher the Morse code of a symbol playing monkey in their brain.That would be extremely poor of the producers at LBC not to explain that if it's true.
If he has a financial interest in the sale of her book it's poor journalistic ethics not to inform the audience

To be sat across from the publisher of your book, that’s interviewing you to promote it, and thus, y’know? Drive sales of it.Genuinely think she might have a degenerative brain disorder. She’s not right at all.
Woah, keep it in your pants ffs!Genuinely think she might have a degenerative brain disorder. She’s not right at all.
Not really, it's a perfect example of the only truth is your own truth, everything else is either fake news, or is anti whatever you are saying.That’s a remarkable line. Astonishing really.
Honestly don’t think Tory voters see anything in her. She’s a Tufton street pawn though and that’s A. Why she says half the stuff she says and B. Why the media are entertaining her.What do Tory voters see in her, exactly?
It was clear at the time that she was vacuous and empty headed, despite her post pork market adoption of new accent and culture war positions. Rishi for all his faults looked the far better statesman when they were campaigning against each other and yet.. they voted for her. It's bewildering.

I mean, we're living in hypernormal times in the UK. For reference, here's the definition of that term:Not really, it's a perfect example of the only truth is your own truth, everything else is either fake news, or is anti whatever you are saying.
The World is becoming an ever more dangerous place when a politician whose daft ideas made millions poorer almost over night, but where they can still draw a media crowd when they open their mouth.
I don't see how that's any different to what we're seeing with our political class, their electioneering, and the rhetoric, dogwhistling and gaslighting we're hearing on an almost daily basis now. The last couple of years alone have been the worst of the worst. Boris Johnson breaking every rule of lockdown, proroguing parliament, Truss and Kwarteng tanking the economy, and now we have the sick man ofThe word hypernormalisation was coined by Alexei Yurchak, a professor of anthropology who was born in Leningrad and later went to teach at the University of California, Berkeley. He introduced the word in his book Everything Was Forever, Until It Was No More: The Last Soviet Generation (2006), which describes paradoxes of Soviet life during the 1970s and 1980s.[3][4] He says that everyone in the Soviet Union knew the system was failing, but no one could imagine an alternative to the status quo, and politicians and citizens alike were resigned to maintaining the pretense of a functioning society.[5] Over time, this delusion became a self-fulfilling prophecy and the fakeness was accepted by everyone as real, an effect that Yurchak termed hypernormalisation.[6]
Those lies can bite you like Brown trying to be down with the kids saying Arctic Monkeys.To be sat across from the publisher of your book, that’s interviewing you to promote it, and thus, y’know? Drive sales of it.
Then fall apart under interrogations such as;
“Night in or night out?”
‘Night out’
“What do you like doing on a night out”
To buckle under the weight of that question.
The woman was trusted to have strategic meetings with heads of state. But couldn’t even come up with a boring generic line like ‘I’m a big foodie - as much as I hate the term - and am going through an Italian phase at the moment. There’s a great restaurant around the corner from my constituency office, can I mention it?’
Just baseline boring straight bat responses that involve no mental horsepower at all.
Or say some shit about film. Mention Dune. The world has just gone nuts over it.
Or say you like walking, talk about your favourite green space.
Honestly, how is this woman trusted to dress herself? The lettuce has more personality as well as staying power.
Yeah I get that… but I’m not even say lie. It’s a high probability that she has zero passions or interests and is just an empty vessel that receives good and bad stimuli neutrally. It’d explain a lot.Those lies can bite you like Brown trying to be down with the kids saying Arctic Monkeys.

I was imagining her scrolling through potential responses in her head, like the Terminator did, and all manner of filth coming up. But yeah it's probably just a black void with a dull flicker of sentience in a corner coming up with pub, restaurant, 'that sort of thing'.Yeah I get that… but I’m not even say lie. It’s a high probability that she has zero passions or interests and is just an empty vessel that receives good and bad stimuli neutrally. It’d explain a lot.
But just… anything. Her own publisher asking her ‘what do you like’ isn’t a political curve ball.
Just say ‘Out with a good friend, sharing a bottle of wine with a good friend’. Yeah the follow up might be ‘What wine’ but I think a former leader of the country should be able to manage it.
She’s such a weird little gremlin.
It can look that way, especially when you realise it isn't just in the UK where this hypernormalisation is at work.We're too far down the rabbit hole.

She could have said, become Prime Minister.What's the worst thing you've ever done?
Smirks thinking about it.
