But yes, i honestly feel Truss’ actions should be viewed as misconduct in public office through sheer incompetence. If a doctor fucked up as much they’d be struck off, if a policeman did it they’d be imprisoned, why is there no accountability for politicians? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice, but we'd need a general election to replace them all if suddenly politicians started being prosecuted for misconduct and incompetence. Really enjoyed you slipping in the bit about coppers being held accountable, though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Different Craig Brown I think. There are a million crazy things about this Truss renaissance but one thing that shines through in that tweet is the massive naïveté about how the world and government works. Governments have constraints on their actions - whether that’s the financial markets, vested interests, the civil service, international allies. You have to balance off what you want to achieve with what the competing forces you, and all governments, are subject to. On the right they have taken this reality and a section has gone paranoia infused crazy. Conspiracies at every corner, the expectation that governments get into power and do whatever they want because “the will of the people”. Much of this is due to Brexit but the general bitterness, rancour and polarisation of the modern age is also a big part of it. It’s primarily the right affected by this, certainly in the UK and US, but I don’t think the left or anyone else is entirely free of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though she is guilty of crashing the economy and being a repulsive rancid ghoul of a person with barely any redeemable qualities it's nice to see that just like you and me she likes pizza. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirkieRR Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 That interview above is conclusive proof she's nuts. And French, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Scando cheese is GRATE. Keep importing it, keep eating it, and make Liz Trump unhappy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I also think she's looking for validation, she's a national joke in the UK, so she's jumped across the Atlantic to speak to the nutters there and has had to spout even more ridiculous nonsense for bigger rounds of applause. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
