I don't know how she sleeps at night.

The 5p cut should have been in the basic rate.

It would have been more popular for sure but would have spooked the markets beyond anything we have seen so far and who knows what the result of that would be.

Is that simply a stupid ignorant racist post or deliberate racism?

You are suggesting all black people look the same , as did the Daily Mirror.

 


Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Liz Truss silent after BBC reporter asks how many people voted for mini-Budget.

Lengthy pause - 'What do you mean?'

Stupid question which not surprising from BBC. The mini budget/fiscal event or whatever you call it did not require voting on by anyone as it is an executive action.

A full budget would require debate and a vote in parliament.

How many people voted for Donkey Brown to sell off all the gold for example.

I would imagine the question prompted a pause as it was a dumb question

To add to that I do believe most of these measures will require a vote in Parliament. According to the media Truss doesn't have the numbers for the 45% rate cut.

Everyone knows what is meant by the question. Who voted for Truss/Truss’s policies?

We know how the constitution works, but when leaders completely change the policies or manifesto then it’s expected they get questioned, and she knows hardly anybody has had a say in this. Problem is because it’s happened before with Labour we go round in circles with whataboutery.

I've just seen her on Tv where she tells the interviewer that is was 'The Chancellors' decision to reverse the 45% tax rate decision.

That is the worst you can get. Announcing the policy in the first place, defending the policy whole - heartedly only 24 hours ago, U-turning this morning and then not having the face to own up to her own failings but throwing her chancellor to the dogs: spineless chancer.

My goodness me.

Come on out, you Tory supporters on here and defend that.

So because the chancellor reversed a decision he made it’s the PM who takes the fall.
It doesn’t work like that. If the chancellor admits it’s his decision then the PM is correct. Hindsight is wonderful and I’m sure you’ve never made a bad decision and then changed your mind. You and some others on here are just the most perfect people and I’m full of admiration and envy for your lives and god like existence !!

So now you write that it was a bad decision.

Yup, hindsight is a wonderful thing indeed. Lol

Thank you for telling us how politics works. I would imagine that it involves showing a (public) united front, no matter what.

If you're trying to convince that, all along, the PM was telling us that it was an independent decision by the chancellor to scrap the 45% rate and then that it was his decision alone to reverse that call, then you are in a foggy place.

Funny how, when it comes to a Labour mishap or wrong decision, you are so unforgiving.

But then, I suppose, in your God-like image, you can decide what the rules are, eh?

Anyway, apart from that, I just totally disagree with the direction of travel of the Cons, regardless of what happens on the way.

I did forecast that public spending cuts would be on the way with this woman and her cronies. Not wrong, I suspect.

Politician who refuses to change their mind on a controversial measure:

Out of touch with the voters, intransigent, uncaring etc.

Politician who listens and admits mistakes:

U Turn, weak, wobbly, dithering

Some times you can't win.

Not necessarily a bad idea it all depends where the cuts are.

In 2016 the civil service staff stood at 380,000 this year it is 480,000. What are these people doing
