Well

 

A: Starmer is only one of the opposition’s leaders. 
 

B: the tories electing truss as party leader won’t be a miracle, just an act of self destruction. 
 

Let’s hope an early election is called before she does too much damage to the U.K. though.

Oh truss’ ineptitude is going to <deleted> off plenty of people in the country if she gets the top job.
 

The opposition know this and I suspect are praying the tories are stupid enough to put her in place.

I spelled Starmer with a capital "S", because I am not an angry socialist trying to be childish, plus I was taught at school how and when to use a capital letter ...????

I guess Madam Truss has not recently had any mental examination to determine whether she is sane?

Oh dear..the signs are not looking good....

If that were introduced, the opposition Party would be in serious trouble....????

Truss is quite obviously trying to package herself as the second coming of Maggie Thatcher.

Apropos of that, I think it was Hegel who remarked that world-historic personages appear twice. The first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.

Actually it was Karl Marx who said it, although he did say it in reference to Hegel.

 

The actual words (in translation) are:

 

Quote

Hegel remarks somewhere that all great world-historic facts and personages appear, so to speak, twice. He forgot to add: the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.

The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte. Karl Marx 1852

Excellent news for the opposition, dreadful news for the country.

 

Her tax plans will strip public services of the funds they need while driving up inflation.

 

The inevitable outcome will be increased interest rates hitting home buyers and all who are struggling with debt.

 

 

end of the year general elections, January 2023 no Tory PM  555

I watched the debate this evening, Truss was appalling.

 

I do hope she wins.

I think most of us do, don't worry about the Labour Party, they have nothing to offer but spin and wild predictions, and beer Kier at the helm, gawd 'elp us....????

Truss, Kier and Labour Party all have capital letters, and I am not posh.

Oh, that emijon is not mine, it's to big chap......Naughty...:stoner:
