Commissar SFLUFAN Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 The new Chancellor of the Exchequer is now speaking about the new fiscal policies and the language he's using "I have decided..." all-but-confirms that he's running the show now in the government, not the actual Prime Minister. Those who are watching the proceedings are saying that Truss genuinely appears to have been medicated as she's staring straight ahead blankly and blinking rapidly. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air_Delivery Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 You have to be a Thatcher/Reagan zealot(moron) of the highest order to not see this happen. She did the exact opposite of what everyone else is doing to combat inflation and goes shocked pikachu when it ends up in disaster. Like Jesus fuck how did this idiot fail upward to the extent where she became prime minister. Did the other Tories that voted her in not understand what she was about? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really curious as to what they saw in her in that leadership contest that they didn't see in Sunak, because these are Sunak's exact words from August as to what would happen if Truss's fiscal policy came to fruition: Quote In August, Sunak had warned that it would be “complacent and irresponsible” to ignore the risk of markets losing confidence in the British economy, as wagers against UK government debt sent short-term borrowing costs in the gilt market soaring. “There will be a run on sterling. The gilts market will be in freefall. And the FTSE will tumble as global investors take fright and sell off every form of British asset. It might take only a few days, or the government might stagger through until the end of September, but before long Liz Truss and her new Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng will have been forced to call in the IMF to stabilise a collapsing economy,” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
