My mortgage, which I had to pretty much sacrifice 5 years of my social life and live like a pauper to even secure, given how crazy house prices are in this country, has went up £400 per month because of her. I’m on the minimum wage of £22,300 per year for a full-time job.
A lot of the problems in my life right now are directly because of Truss.
Boo fucking hoo if she doesn’t like being reminded of how much of a failure she was, is, and will forever continue to be. It’s a small price to pay compared to what plenty of others are facing.
Tried to steamroll through new economic policy that was plain stupid, which the bank of England had to intervene on to stop peoples pensions going broke. This resulted in a huge spike in interest rates that thousands of people are still affected by today. There is much more to it, but thats the short story. Fuck this woman, she should be in prison not flogging books.
To add to @[email protected]’s comment, the whole thing: from her becoming PM to resigning, lasted just 50 days. The shortest PM in British history by far, beating the previous record of George Canning of 119 days in 1827.
And her premiership would have been even shorter, except that the Queen died on her watch, which put a complete pause on British politics for a time.
TLDR; she became prime minister (PM) because some powerful forces in the Conservative Party thought she would be easy to control (they were right), she instigated a borderline libertarian, trickle-down tax reform, the international money markets went insane (because it was borderline insane, unfunded and left no doubt as to her ineptitude), the U.K. economy took a massive hit - and all of this within a week or two - and it became crystal clear that she actually was indeed exactly as inept and dumb as she looked, so she was replaced because while everyone in her batshit crazy party was like “tax cuts for the rich”, enough of them understood that for the money markets to have any confidence in the U.K. economy couldn’t actually be run by someone with the intelligence of a lettuce. Fun fact, a newspaper ran a “who will die first, this lettuce or Liz Truss?” live video stream of a lettuce were proven right; the lettuce outlived her.
I’m missing a lot of detail that can best be summarised as: Liz Truss is a shining example of the Dunning-Kruger effect.
Although in fairness to her, she did open up new POOOOOOORK MARKETS!!!
But, and this is probably going to be a mistake to say out loud, nothing seems to stop her from being wildly attractive to me. It doesn’t even make sense, she’s just got a crazy cute face, and it pains me that behind that pretty face is such a bad brain.
This is a fantastic video of her at the horse racing and she’s looking so gormless, that I’m reasonably confident that some of the contestants have more going on between the eyes than she does.

What did she do to cause that?

This is a good question and you shouldn’t be downvoted for asking it.
Really?
Uh … yes? Sorry for not keeping up with UK politics I guess?

Worth noting that Canning died in office, rather than having to resign in disgrace.

Holy moly, thanks. I love that bit about the lettuce, brilliant!
The more I learn about her, the more I hate her.

“Oh yes Liz, fuck me like I’m the economy!”

I mean … ehm … so … ok …
