Bats-in-belfry Liz thinks the observation "anyway bats fly" is smart.
So far is she from rational appreciation, she's missed the point; the consensus on both sides of the Norfolk roadbuilding row is such 'bridges' don't work. But not because 'bats fly'. They are greenwashing fig-leaves, sold by the road-building lobby as a solution, that attracted sceptism when built & have since measurably proven to have failed.
As the lunatic Truss, beloved by her constituents (she says) and betrayed by the lefty markets, beloved of if not by Trump chunters on, a few(?) have remarked on her early onset dementia.
As with all deep state conspiracists, perhaps what Truss truly mourns is the lack of one.
Liz #Truss 's book is out soon. It's called "10 years to save the west" - directly cribbing a theme from Alex Jones, Steve Bannon, Bill Cooper and Oswalds Mosley and Spengler if you want to go back far enough.
I can't find a review yet but I do kind of want to read it.
If she's written it, I've no doubt it will be unhinged and laden with conspiracy. If it's ghost-written (or largely AI-generated) it will be regurgitated banalities.
Nothing says desperate for the farmer and Christian vote like grabbing a lamb as if you’ve never even held a pet hamster in your life and standing outside a burnt out derelict church…
There are other options folks at the ballot box…please use them.
I sincerely hope there's no chance of this passing - preventing trans people from going to the loo is effectively a de facto ban on us being able to exist in public.
I really am tired of this distraction stuff, while these vandals ransack the country.
A bit of a diatribe, but Stevenson, the interviewee makes some fine point that need to be thought about. As an ex-trader he makes some coherent observations about wealth, Covid spending and the benefices
“Now people are joining the civil service who are essentially activists,” Truss said. “They might be trans activists, they might be environmental extremists but they are now having a voice within the civil service in a way I don’t think was true 30 or 40 years ago. So we just have a wholly new problem and, frankly, a hundred political appointees doesn’t even touch the sides in terms of dealing with them.”
I say dethroned, because let’s not forget #Truss wasn’t elected by the people (just Tory members) while #Sunak was elected by just Tory MPs.
These people don’t represent the democratic will of the people.
They now both cast minorities as a danger to ‘British’ life. They want us to hate scientists arguing for environmental action and trans people just wanting the right to exist. Both hate refugees.
Truss plays the alt-right darling, while Sunak attempts to deliver Farage policies.
Britain’s ‘deep state’ thwarted my plans, Liz #Truss tells US hard-right summit https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/feb/21/liz-truss-deep-state-cpac-far-right
The ‘Conservative’ party really know how to pick ‘em. Now it is the deep state who thwarted her - clearly the deep state has become much more inclusive, to incorporate financial markets and common sense.
And the party picked her over the failing Sunak, who for all his faults is not as loony
Nasty piece of work, as well as a catastrophe for pension fund valuations. Fash Rwanda bill not fash enough for fash #Truss
Vote her out South West Norfolk (Downham Market, Emneth and Tilney). She demeans us all.
