The very living embodiment of Dunning-Kruger. She’s like the Blue Jam sketch where they send a moron to retrieve an impounded car, because it is impossible to argue with a moron.

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Why is anyone listening to this woman? I couldn't watch the whole video, she's mad!
Ah! Hello there! Stupid American here, with a fantastic offer for you! Yes, we'll take Lettuce Liz off your hands - at no cost, now, absolutely free to you - and in return you can have literal hours of - eh, fun - with donald trump. Just don't send him back, that's all we ask. No returns. Act Now!
No thanks septic, we'll stick with the salad lady thanks.
;-)
I can see you’re a tough negotiator. Allright, you’ve got me. We’ll throw in the governor of Florida. Many people say he’s ~~worse than~~ er, more than trump! Exciting, right?! Now that’s a deal!
Sorry, that's not the art of the deal.
How the fuck was that man not jumped on by the media (I can't remember if this was post or pre vagina grabbing) when he mocked that disabled journalist! I thought that would've been the end, but no one seemed to care!
In any reasonable timeline it would have ended his ridiculous political stunt. The four-hundred years of his “administration” were like waking up and taking crazy pills everyday. Not a single day passed without some outrage or other, cheered on by billionaires, millionaires, schmucks, dorks, hicks, pinheads, and twits.
There’s a tweet that went around saying something like “trump’s lasting legacy is that we learned our friends, family, and neighbors are all goddamned morons.”
^ Redd's treasure trawler right here.
The Tories last elected leader, everyone. Can we see a debate between her and the lettuce now? Pretty sure the lettuce has some more thought out ideas. Def more fun to watch in interviews.

Rishi Sunak or Boris Johnson depending on your definitions.
Whole nation was involved in that election.
Only tories selected truss. And she was the last person their party elected to lead them.
Wasn't Truss selected by the members and not the MPs? Hence the collosal fuck up that as her premiership?
As far as I remember the Tories selected Cameron, and he won two elections, May and she won one election, Boris and he won one election, Truss and she crashed the economy but didn't win or lose an election, Sunak but he lost an election. Their method of selection changed a little but it's been that way for many many years.
I'm not sure what you are disagreeing with.
Tories means the members of the party. That is what joining a party means.
The Tories elected truss as their leader. And that was the last time Tories elected a leader for their party?
Tories means the members of the party.
What is your view on the Tory MPs given this definition?
The Tories elected truss as their leader. And that was the last time Tories elected a leader for their party?
Because I thought Sunak fit that bill 🤷.
Tory MPs are just like labour MPs.
Not sure what term thay use. But labour use PLP parlimentary labour party.
Parlimentary concervative and unionist party sound like a mouth full. And PCP is an unlikely acronym to encourage them. So ill use it. Pretty sure their all on something ;)
Sunak lost the last tory leadership election. So by definition he was never elected as their leader.
He was a runner up as the party leadership was desperate to avoid another party election. Given the MP/PCP was so devided at the one that elected truss.
They were more worried about the harm having a leader fight so soon would do to the party.
Remember at least in my lifetime (50 plus years) tories sending 2 options to the members is rare. The diffierence in votes is normally large so The least supported by MPs normally backs out before that happens.
Historically tories have always been pretty good at managing PCP seperation. The power of the far right in theor party has always been a grumpy minority. That part of the party Winning the brexit ref was the start of a change in the party.
I got about a minute in. I can't even hate watch her.
Socialists in France... After what just happened? I'd happily throw a brick at her head if I thought it would do any damage
