I'm aware of a Truss speech writer who gave her a speech. She criticised it and demanded a rewrite. The speech writer knew her character and gave it back unamended and she said it was now great. 😮
She enjoyed humiliating people who stood up to her, or had the potential to stand up to her, because she is inherently week. Her ideology is weak, her constitutional character is weak, and, as a demagogue - albeit of the female variety, and not a very good one at that - she was weak. I think she knows herself that she is weak, which leads her to denegrate others, to blame others for her own misgivings, and create phantom enemies for scapegoating. By bringing others down the hope is that she elevates herself up and her weakness can be masked to some degree by those gullible enough to believe it. Her ideology (that of low taxation, little to no regulation and oversight, small government, a willingness to accept ever increasing levels of inequality, and privatisation of everything in sight) IS a root cause of many of the problems that we have today. The rich dont get to benefit from our hard work, our infrastructure, our people, and not have to contribute their fare share. Her ideology is rotten to the core and at odds with a civilized society and world. I am proud that we rejected her.

I take so much issue with the idea that Thatcher's policies could be seen as a success. The selling off of nationalised assets to the private sector provided short term income and an initial boost of investment. Those same policies are the same reason that we have a housing crisis and total failure of public services and utilities today. When there is nothing left to sell and the government has no money left, the country is held to ransom. The success that his generation enjoyed under Thatcher is being paid for by the generations after him, I find it disgusting that people like him can't recognise that
Makes sense. I was thinking her weird mannerisms and way of going from one exaggerated emotion to the other was maybe indicative of some sort of early AI design that had been kept under wraps but I had been watching the new Alien movies so your reasoning sounds better. Tbh, I think she might be autistic/Aspie and struggles with communicating if I was guessing. I am myself. No way would I even attempt public speaking. It just calls for a lot of things that aren't among my strengths. So bad android, powder hoover or somewhere on the spectrum.

I think he’s being overly generous when describing Truss as intelligent. There is nothing in her words and actions that indicates an average intellect, let alone an exceptional one. She wasn’t even the best and the brightest within the shallow talent puddle of the Conservative Party.
I think it's relative. Both to thrninsane CEO, legal and banker wages out there, and to what being PM actually entails. You're working 20 hour days for the duration of your time in office, never switching off; culpable for literally everything and everyone; and will start off in the job hated by at least half the population and of you do a good job, will be hated by at best two thirds by the end. Yours and your family's life will always be in danger, you don't have true privacy again; and you have to live with every success and failure which will be the highest stakes successes and failures. £160k for that? It's nothing.

Basically yes. As much damage as she caused, it was ultimately a very short term shock that we will recover from, because she wasn't in office for long enough to create a much bigger problem. Her brevity alone makes her better than other Prime Ministers that have caused so much damage throughout their premierships.
I think the only way you could claim that is because of the shortness of their tenure. Fortunately we've never been able to see what would've happened if she was given free reign for that period of time. I mean, I'd rather not find out if I'm honest.

Seldon admitted the headline was a lie & it was not truss who suggested cancelling cancer treatments but a civil servant in a brainstorming meeting of open ideas. The suggestion was never really taken seriously or even discussed by truss. The headline was just a ruse to sell books.
Someone who believes that markets aren't free enough and if only they were more free, everything would be perfect, I imagine? That's the vibe every word he said gave at least

Kwarteng has both claimed that he warned against the problems and that Truss would have survived if she hadn't fired him. If he truly is, as Seldon claimed here, very economically literate than he should take more of the blame than Truss because he should have known better (and indeed claims he did know better).
Always had the impression that Truss was operating under the influence of some strong medication. She may have had an aptitude for maths, debate and bloody-mindedness, but that vacant, thousand-yard stare was inescapable and pointed at something troubling beneath the surface. A sorely un-missed PM, who with doubtless slither about in the IEA's dungeons causing trouble for the UK for years to come.

I agree. Just one example: my mortgage went from a steady £119 pcm to £480 in 3 months...and is still £430 pcm...on an "income" of OAP and bits..total circa a little less than £10,000 pa. I will be one of millions in this bind.
Lis Truss. shows, clear signs of neuro diversity, The big question, the Conservative party needs to be asking how could someone like that get the big job when clearly the wrong person for the job
It’s much more than that. I think it’s an untreated personality disorder. Because I’ve known autistic people and she’s just not like them at all. Also it should be said that with treatment it needn’t have been so significant
This is not a searing condemnation . . . more a rambling, poorly articulated attempt to understand how such an indequate woman ever became Prime Minister.
She didn't try to ban cancer treatment - that is clickbait. Her advisors were worried she might consider it. It's a little bit of a subtle difference but it is more accurate.

His analysis gives the vibe of it all failed because they weren't right wing enough, which is what you usually get from people like that. "There is no growth", well, it's almost like a decade of quantitative easing only made the rich richer and us poors have no money to spend anymore, so of course there's no growth and making the country socialism for the rich and "free" markets for the poor like Truss wanted to do clearly won't help, cause that's what we've been doing since the 80s.

Definitely. Remember her remarks on how she reacted to the death of the queen? “Why me?”
I assume she's a sociopath. She is just a front for Tufton Street, Institute for Economic Affairs failed, Utopian economic dogma.
Sir Anthony’s analysis is fascinating. Both Truss and Kwarteng were unfit for their jobs and were found out.
She enjoyed humiliating people who stood up to her, or had the potential to stand up to her, because she is inherently week.

Despite what Anthony says, I don't remotely think she was intelligent at all, certainly not emotionally intelligent.

She was like a drunk with their wages in a betting shop.
this guy is so off the mark its not funny
About what?
@@subroy7123 He just comes across as very disingenuous. Like or loath Jeremy Corbyn the idea of him sitting at home just wishing failure on Keir Starmer is utterly ridiculous.
@@Pixiedust8399 He just comes off as old to me, which is why there are so many contradictions in what he says, but I don't think it is malicious or anything. I have yet to check out his book, though.
@@Pixiedust8399 Absolutely agree
@@subroy7123that doesn’t follow at all. Why would old people hold contradictory opinions? What prevents someone pre dementia logically assessing the consistency of their position? Just as agist an approach as saying it’s ok they’re racist cos they’re old. It’s insulting to all the non racist and logically consistent elderly people
His analysis gives the vibe of it all failed because they weren't right wing enough, which is what you usually get from people like that. "There is no growth", well, it's almost like a decade of quantitative easing only made the rich richer and us poors have no money to spend anymore, so of course there's no growth and making the country socialism for the rich and "free" markets for the poor like Truss wanted to do clearly won't help, cause that's what we've been doing since the 80s.
I hope Meghan Markel becomes your Queen
Never going to happen. 5 people would have to die first. Charles, then William, then his three kids, George, Charlotte & Louis. That's the root cause of Harry's problem, he's no longer the spare, he's dropped so far down the line of succession he knows he will never sit on the throne.
@@markmaher4548 I'm sure he gives exactly 2 fu.ks about it.
I hope so too. Better than the lizards on the throne now....
Harry and Meghan are well away from the parasites, should makes his own money and do his own thing,it’s all the royal hangers on , and pathetic crawlers in the media that keep trying to put him down. Too many little royal flag wavers in uk
?
What a load tripe,
Evil woman
💥🥊🥬
ermmmm
She may have read a report written by someone else suggesting cutting cancer treatment.
Click bait bullshit. Go away.
Nhs should be PRIVATISED.
That will sort 75 percent immigration problems
