She is now the foreign secretary, responsible for international diplomacy for the United Kingdom on the world stage.

I’ve just bumped into Dominic Raab in central lobby so I smiled and said “good morning former Foreign Secretary”.
“Oh f**k off Ken!” He replied.
Still not over it then.

Here’s Liz Truss, our new foreign secretary taking a very important phone call with the phone upside down.

I don't think we need to make things up when it comes to Liz Truss.
She is a joke of her own making

Re: The Daily Post Election Politics Thread
Apparently the energy crisis is likely to last for many months to come.
One of the major suppliers doubted there would even be 10 companies left at the end of it. 70 currently.
And the Governments answer? Lend them some money

Re: The Daily Post Election Politics Thread
The sooner everyone sees how inept this Government is the better.
They are doing untold damage to our future and any place we had in the World.
I suspect it will need people to be hit hard in the pocket first tho.

Whilst the current Government is undoubtedly awful, I'm not so sure that the resolution is as simple as removing them.?duke63 wrote:The sooner everyone sees how inept this Government is the better.

Fwiw it seems to me that, like it or not, we have a government that reflects the state. Our bubble has finally burst, and it can't be that long before the blinkered egotistical populous look up from their (tablets/ mirrors/ mobile phones/ fast food, etc,, ) and realise that, actually, the rest of the world is not lost without ingerland's ruling lead.
The fact that it's already too late to regain our cosseted place, and that they were not being scaremongered by "project fear" but rather being wisely advised by those with their eyes open, may start to dawn on the muppets this country has spawned.
