Well, things aren’t going extremely well in the Government at the moment. Liz Truss is hanging on by her teeth and now there’s a petition going so that Boris Johnson can get back into 10 Downing Street again.
The Prime Minister ditched her close ally Kwasi Kwarteng to save her own bacon, and now Conservative MPs are scheming to replace her. Oh, she’s in deep shit as the plot thickens, but the timeline of shit has been coming down the line, and now it’s a bomb that’s been tossed up in the air. BOOM!
And if they believed getting rid of Kwasi Kwarteng was going to buy Liz Truss some time, they were so wrong.
Of course, the Conservative party was never a great party, to start with, but now it’s just a shamble, and Liz Truss has desecrated their reputation of economic competence.
She did a U-turn on the policy on which she became Prime Minister and she’s thrown her best ideological pal under the bus. She’s also declined to answer any questions and she’s done a runner. She’s just got to go along with the entire Conservative party and let someone else have a go – it’s time for a General Election.
Liz Truss will struggle to reach Christmas, although some believe she’s only got days to go, but of course, who will take her place? Sunak or Mordaunt, do behave, but at the moment they’re the most sellable option, and when I say sellable I literally mean sellable, although I’m not sure they would bring much at auction.
And then there’s Boris Johnson with numerous MPs still considering him as the best choice because no one has his charm, and perhaps people will realise that they did kill the goose that laid the golden egg.
On another note, Liz Truss isn’t even pretending to care, that’s because she probably doesn’t care, and there’s no way she’s going to bring the United Kingdom back from the brink, somebody capable would have to do that and that’s certainly not the Conservatives.
There’s nothing aspirational or upbeat about Liz Truss or the Conservative party, come to that, but has Liz Truss done enough to save herself? I very much doubt it, and if she’s got nothing good to say, then perhaps she shouldn’t say anything at all, and she’s now seen as economically inept and to be frank a tad useless.
She sort of reminds me of one of those puppets you get at a pantomime, you know, the ones with the hand up their arse.
It does seem ridiculous to change the leader again, but honestly, Liz Truss is politically finished through her incompetent madness.
Of course, being Prime Minister is an extremely challenging job because it calls for strong, principled and savvy political leadership, which she is not.
I would like to find the correct words to describe Liz Truss but I just can’t because there are just no words for her, but then most of the Tories are the same, they appear to live in this continuous bubble of Alice in Wonderland, along with the Mad Hatter and his tea party.
Sadly though Britain is about to get a new Prime Minister, yep again! In the end, they will have had more Prime Ministers than I’ve had hot dinners, and whoever does take over from Liz Truss will have a thankless task on their hands, and whatever your political view, it’s clear that the next Prime Minister will be handed a hot mess.
