She is so deluded and shameless
No, she is too deluded to be shameless.
She is too deluded to realise she is shameless.
Her vocabulary:”I I I I I I I I …….” Ad nauseum.
She either believes what she's saying, in which case she's insane - or it's an act and she's hoping we all are.
@@taher9358: Mention facts. At least one.
@@TheLucanicLord: Could been better.
Deluded and completely bonkers!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@sceptical You got the cheap likes...but what do you think as a grown up?
Biggest issues 1) She is given this platform and 2) no push back on anything she says.
There should have been charges brought against her and Kwarteng for the wilful damge they did to the UK, the 'think tanks' and hedge funds made an absolute killing.
Calm down
@@TimComleyNo, sick of these animals making the rich, richer
@@TimComley sorry, some of us are a bit unhappy with the economic pit these thieves have left us in. Maybe you're rich enough to not care, or you're just a mug.
@@hayleyxyzbeautifully put 😂
As much as she’s annoying and her policy was negligent it wasn’t willful damage, she clearly wrongly believes in the free market mechanisms and the trickle down theory to bring prosperity down to the masses.
Shame on Dale for platforming this disgraced bin-fire of a 'politician'.
This is such a weird comment.
@ineedmoreflavour1955 how is it a weird comment? We keep allowing people to platform these damaging politicians who share a stage with the likes of Steve Bannon. Its not about balance, this country as plenty of normal right wing commentators no need to give truss airtime
Dale has every right to delve into the realm of comedy.
@@dudududuFthetories All the truly great, absurd British comedy characters are convinced of their own seriousness after all...
😂🤣🤣 bin fire of a politicians.
You should never have been Prime minister.
I was on holiday. I never noticed that she was PM.
I'd rather listen to the lettuce.
@@brianferguson7840 I popped to the loo and missed it.
😂😂😂 That's funny. She was in office for such a short time but she almost brought down the country. I can't even stand looking at her.
@Spaceman-jk5fb 49 days too long!
She is insane. I can't believe anyone would LAUGH as they say they tried to abolish the Equalities act. What kind of monster actively tries to take away people's protections against unfair treatment and laughs about it in public! Yes, people with disabilities should be treated fairly, women should get equal pay to men, and women shouldn't be discriminated against and fired because they're pregnant! The irony is, it's the Liz Truss fan base saying "We need to have more children!" but then try to take away the protections that encourage women to have more children. Absolutely insane. As for Iain Dale, well he's always been repugnant - Who in their right mind a attacks and tackles a pensioner to the ground for expressing the free speech Iain claims to hold so dear. They are both disgusting individuals.
So well said👏👏👏 it utterly beggars belief!!!
He’s a Tory! What did you expect.
Delusional doesn’t even begin to describe her!
Utterly deluded
I'm at a real loss ....this woman has caused so much damage and is being touted as some kind of national hero ....LBC hold your head in shame ....
LBC has far bigger issues like failing to tell the truth about basic stuff. They never say "The government doesn't control interest rates or food prices" when people whine about their mortgage or food costs.
She a Tory 13 years old of damage 😂😂😂
Iain Dale is a joke! This is not a left/right issue, she ruined the economy for everyone.
@@Dynasty1818 It's always funny that right-wingers will claim every single economic success was all down to them but economic failings are always 'out of the governments control'.
I hated Thatcher, not for being who she was but, for her policies. You knew she had a ideology and a thought process. But I hate Truss because she has no principles, policies, thoughts or feelings.
*Everyone attacking Truss and rightly so, but the interviewer is just as awful he is a Tory and he loves her disgusting policies*
Truss has no shame. Who owns her ? Anyone else would hide their head in shame in your position but not Liz.
check out The Heritage Foundation and their extremely Dangerous Project 25. They paid for her last 'lecture' in Washington
The Devil
@@ritasnaddon1385
Do you think it was them that gave her that day coller?
She is not owned by anyone. Is it just me or do you seem to be be stuck in the 19th century where women were seen as property?
Iain Dale was useless, asking the most irrelevant and weak questions.
Did you expect anything else from the unrepentant child of Brexit?
Because he agrees and likes her
First time here?
He's better at arguing with Barry from Doncaster... Dreadful interviewer 😢
He is a Conservative.....
Why wont this complete failure go away?
@bora Same reason you won't perhaps?
@@chatham43 I am away though.
stop giving her airtime
Just utterly oblivious as to how the entire country feels about her time in office, she complains that she had no real power, imagine if she did, did enough damage in just a few days whilst apparently having no real power.
I hope the Labour Party are paying LBC for this campaign contribution.
No-one could afford this
The longest serving Monarch in British history chose to die rather than meet her for a second time 😢
Agreed 100%
😂😭😂😭
@brian In bad taste so should go down a storm here.
Why me? The Queen said.
That's a little harsh!
Liz Truss is actually making a superb case here . . . for why nobody should vote Conservative.
...make that for any political alignment that shows her face. Just like Bannon.
She also gave us a big demonstration of why Corbyn should never be PM. I.E. what happens when you make unfunded pledges and can't demonstrate to markets that the government can't pay its debts.
@@user-hu1yi8ox9z Interesting (but 'Corbin' this 'Corbin 'that... - look at Clegg and Hamoron IN government). There have been text books of manifestos in the past from the UK gov that had been published at the expense of tax money, but rapidly became void, or at best; moot. Then evolved into tabloid fodder pretending to be contracts. But spoken words seem to have lost meaning or worth in the Tory recent history because of flat-earthers like her. Could you cite a country that 'got it right'? I can't see how any westminster grifter mp can better constantly talking bs.
Question for Liz T: What do your parents think of you now? As a person who crushed the economy within days of becoming PM and sharing a platform with Steve Bannon.
49 DAYS FAR TOO LONG !
Why any sane person would vote for the torys ever again is beyond me!
How they ever did vote tory is beyond me!!!
Every word she utters screams "incompetence".
She sounds like she’s making a case for her next tenure as dictator. Er, no thanks Liz!
Not if her constituents vote her out.
@@DCDPM Let’s hope so. She’s on a massive majority though.
I think that’s exactly right. Post general election, lots of Tory seats lost, who occupies an ultra safe seat and has unfinished business? Mary Elizabeth Truss.
Who are these people who vote for her as their MP?
@@jom-k7494 She is apparently facing an independent conservative candidate.
She would probably have been better off being a mime - what an absolutely disgrace of a PM!
No contrition, no self-awareness, no recognition of her role in us falling behind all western democracies...
legally, it seems politics requires its entities to be without self awareness.
We should all be reminded of Liz Truss and the catastrophic outcome of her governing, but she should never have a platform in the future.
Steve Bannon is her new Bestie. Need we say more?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Glad to see LBC is always willing to promote Tory failures...
...especially ones who tanked the economy within less than two months.
what a terrible interview. basically allowed her to spout her nonsence for an hour and and a half with barely any pushback or accountability for the state she left the country in.
Dizzy Lizzy should hand back every penny she was paid for total incompetence, then get a job elsewhere if anyone would employ her. MORALS NOT MONEY STOP THE TORIES STOP THE LIES STOP MONES BOAT
Imagine being the boss calling the shots and saying nothing was your fault.
Her antics in America then and this year are very embarrassing.
A gammon interviewing a thick lettuce. No thanks.
Clear off then
@@TimComley lol ok boomer
@@TimComley Cry harder
@saffaboy So your job interview didn't go down too well?
@@chatham43 what?
The poor queen must have taken one look at her and gave up. Everyone apart from the tory Party membership knew she was going to be a disaster.
What a terrible interview with a terrible guest!
Bring back the lettuce
Grow up
@TimComley hey I didn't lose to a vegetable with superior political expertise
@@TimComleylike the lettuce did
She sounds like a recent graduate applying for their first job and giving the usual 'my biggest weakness is that I'm a perfectionist' lines
Reminds me of an Apprentice contestant, hence she now endorses Trump...
This is unreal. As if she is talking about another person. Not driven and demanding....more deluded and opportunistic
listening to her it is very clear our state is in the same jeopardy as the US.
No shame
robot on setting 'unhinged' - her first rant as a teenage student should have been enough to warn the world and Dale should be fired
Who gave this absolute no mark air time? She can stick her book right uo her thermal exhaust pipe.
She is living in cloud cuckoo land
@Ngamer How would you know ?😊
She is responsible for making people’s mortgages significantly more expensive. A very real negative effect on ordinary people’s lives.
she is insane
The lettuce in my fridge makes more sense
Still as mad as a box of frogs.
i cant believe any outlet is giving her any air time at all , crazy
Bonkers, how is she still a public figure.
If you want to understand Truss don't buy this book, get Rory Stewarts book from your local Library (if it hasn't been closed).
...next up he'll be interviewing Farage on how to win an election to Westminster......(lost 7 times)....
But won biggest battle of all what have you won
@@TimComley a poorer and less influential country unfortunately 😕
@@TimComley😂
All hail the lettuce who survived longer than her time in office
Dale back to his old tricks
The word delusion made ' human '
Thankfully, Truss's own party did not waste any time moving her on. 😮
Do you have no shame you have done more harm for every family in the country
Please don't spout about acconimics you clearly are clueless
Every economic advisor told you repeatedly the carnage you would cause
Shame on you
She's just so weird.
Weird doesn't matter. Disliking "weird" people is just bigotry. What matters is her appalling behaviour and total lack of introspection or remorse.
She claims nothing is unchangeable or irreversible in politics and then lists all the reasons why as a minister she wasn’t able to change anything. The final attempt to change something ended in being forced from office by the establishment who wanted to maintain the status quo
The living embodiment of the phrase “it’s only embarrassing if you’re embarrassed”
Truss is occupying a safe Tory seat. If Cons have any sense, they'll give her seat to another candidate
Delusion incoming
What makes her think that her policies are what the people want? Her argument is not just true for conservatives policies but policies that are not popular with the electorate are not going to be implemented because of how the houses of commons and lords work together with the independent bodies. the fact that she didn't know this, means that she doesn't know how democracy works
Her absolute incompetence is causing us huge pain in mortgage fees after crashing the economy . I’m not sure why she is still relevant . She should be hiding away I shame
What an unchallenging interview!
She's so happy it's ridiculous should be locked up and key through away
50 billion gone due to this microbrain and her pinky. Leading Britain's Cretins alright.
Wow as this interview goes on its clear she's a few sandwiches short of a picnic
Yeah, you go Ian! You ask those hard questions!!! From this day forth your entire profession will now look up to you.
I find myself disliking her more somehow
yes, me too. My dislike of her is a definition of infinity.
After the break, Ian will interview the lettuce that bested Liz and have a thorough discussion about monetary policy…
This is a terrible interview, punched pulled, total lack of pressure on the interviewee. Liz is interviewed as an author here, not as a former PM. Format is so off and wrong.
This one is far too animated to be a normal function logical person as a politician. I'm demanding she goes...
This was more of a therapy session than a searching interview, Ian. What brought Liz Truss down was not her philosophy of growth but her plan of unfunded tax cuts, to which the markets and the BOE naturally reacted. But her philosphy of growth too is flawed. The current most acute threat to growh is increasing income inequality. You can put more money into the pockets of the businesses but they are not going to invest it if they do not have the demand for their products and services. Quite obviously, the Tory's levelling-up policy did not get a buy-in from Truss.
Truss is an object lesson in confabulation and narcissist denial.
She really can't comprehend that she is so utterly inept.
"I came into politics to change things". Yep, did that alright.
This was a chance for a deep journalistic interview, but it seems a very soft ball interview. No challenge of her arguments - just teeing her up to list her thoughts. I respect journalists on the right who can still challenge those who they support and thought Iain might be one, clearly not.
He is a Brexit Conservative. It was never going to be a balanced interview.
Why do mean steam media continue to give her a platform.
What do I want to see want to see you stop talking
She had her moment in the light, loved it and is doing all she can to get back into the light. To be pitied if she was not so damaging and malicious.
Unbelievable lack of insight and contrition from the most incompetent PM in British political history as Iain Dale gives her a cushy ride. He should have demanded an unreserved apology to the British people instead of allowing her to peddle her deluded drivel.
Back under your rock, gollum
Ha, ha ha...nice!!
Cannot watch this. Expected a lot more of Iain Dale, he’s usually much better than this. Get her on the Rest is politics with Campbell and Rory. Now that would be an interview to behold
That was a party political broadcast on behalf of all the opposition parties! 😂
"I think we should remove the training wheels that stopped me completely imploding the UK"
At least Kwasi Kwarteng has kept a pretty low profile since the economic disaster he and Truss presided over .
At least he knows he blew it. She on the other hand…. S’truth!
Yeah that group think is the Tory right
I think it would have been better to interview the lettuce
This Thing is deluded and shameless
Such a embarrassment 😢
One of the worst prime ministers we’ve ever had if not the worst
After watching this and watching some of her earlier political rallies on youtube, I can't help but think that a lot of what she says and does comes from having a lifelong 'chip on her shoulder' and deep seated narcissism. Please don't think I mean that in a patronising or misogynistic way, I might be wrong of course, but when she discusses wanting to change the world, relationship with her parents, wanting to disrupt convention, wanting to reestablish conservative ideology yet seeing herself as outside the establishment, complete lack of accountability, it's almost as though she's needing to convince herself of her own self-perception. A sort of self-inflicted paranoia.
I don't know, that's just what came across to me.
Nurse. Nurse.
What shameful journalism.
It's not a smear when my pension tracker shows a significant impact on the growth for the period of her 'budget' madness compared to before and after.
How pathetic 'poor me, poor me' when talking about the passing of a lady she isnt fit to have been in the same room.
Shameful level of tripe from lbc.
dreadfully poor journalism.
80 minutes of "we need the PM to be a dictator with no checks and balances".
"I don't like the checks and balances that are in place to keep people like me from acting like a dictator".
This is sort of like some one driving there car into a wall at 60 mph and when asked if they thought it was a mistake saying “no in-fact I was just going too slow, if I was going 80mph I’m sure I would have made it through the wall”
Not going to lie, Dale didn't even try to interview her. He's normally stronger than this.
Dale fawning over yet another deluded tory narcissist.
