Is there any part of this role that Truss is doing?
No accountability with this woman whatsoever.

Not sure why the deputy PM isn’t filling in
She's acting in the national interest and staying away.
Prime Ministers cannot hide away in a crisis even if they never caused it and she did cause it.

Makes me think she is currently arranging her exit.

She'll just bury her head in the sand for a few days and hope it all goes away. What a PM!

A Sky reporter put it well when he said everything she stands for is now in the bin. :D

Giving her too much credit, she couldn’t arrange anything.

She is probs hiding behind the sofa and pretending she isn’t in when The Gove comes knocking

She should have taken more notice of what Boris did when he was in a spot of bother. Diversion
Start a row with Brussels about something, or perhaps organise a trip to Ukraine and ride around in a tank for a day...

The only thing Truss could brag about was that she was extending energy support to households.....until now. :lol:

Kier Starmer has asked his urgent question. Unfortunately Sky only filmed the last few words.

Alexa, count how many times per minute Mordaunt says "in the national interest". :roll:

Truss was unable to answer the urgent question because she is "detained on urgent business". :lol:

Presumably an interview for a hedge fund role. Certinaly not a political role because shes finished and rightly so.
Earlier today I started to feel sorry for her then I realised her demise was of her own making. She's F**ked up a lot of people's lives. She's lucky she can't be imprisoned for what she and Kwarteng did.

Scotland has a law that England doesn't, I think it's called willful neglect of public duty in office. It's worth a try. :)

Alison McGovern showing far too much cleavage for this time in the afternoon, it should be shown after the watershed. :D

Can’t wait for the gossip mill that will be spinning after this meeting later tonight.

“Penny was fuming that she was forced to come out batting for Truss in the commons. She wants the job and has let it known”

“Truss is done and so am I”

“Graham Brady is going to feel like Father Christmas, receiving all these letters”

Mordaunt says she cannot disclose the reasons why Truss is unable to attend, even though she asked! It's understandable Truss doesn't want us to know she's hiding behind the sofa but she'll have to come clean eventually, it won't go away.
