I’m expecting the price to really come in tonight for Truss to go, you will get your 4 ticks by 10pm
I've already got them and am now out the market.

Anyone know why Truss has left the chamber, something must be going on ?

The right wing media have a lot to answer for also. This was the Daily Mails response to Kwartengs mini budget a few weeks ago

The only other "good reason" for Liz not being in the chamber earlier to answer questions apart from writing her resignation speech would be an intelligence meeting to make plans for a possible Russian nuclear strike on the UK.
I think she's likely to have been ill. Sickness and diarrhoea.

My spellchecker couldn't correct my spelling so I had to google runny shit!

Watching Truss alongside Hunt was really quite scary. Essentially she had nothing to say. She just blinked in a really odd way and glared at the Labour bench.
She is a total failure, staggeringly so and we'll all pay for her incompetence.
I don't care if a close relative just died to explain her absence from Parliament, that's the job. Youre the most powerful person of 66 mllion. You've f**ked up monumentally. Suck it up!

Shes a dreadful communicator. But thats been obvious for years. Remember all those videos of her talking about pork markets and cheese?
This was the best person the Torys could find to be their leader. It beggars belief

It was the Tory membership who voted her in, less than 1/3 of Tory MP's voted for her.

I think I mentioned it during the leadership debates, Truss will make Boris look statesman like.
