  1. The communists(Labour Party) will easily win the next election, and Britain will return to its E.U. masters.

    1. The Labour Party will double down on the gang green approach.

      Truss should have called an election, then resigned.

  2. Unlike Kim, she resigned before the election. I was hoping she would be more like Margaret Thatcher, strong and principalled.

    1. She’s smart like a fence post, a sack of hammers maybe, on a good day.
      Margaret Thatcher? OMG! That’s a good one

      Lizzy gone enter globalist remainer pick in 3…2….1…

  3. She’s a globalist. The cons in GB can’t seem to find a Thatcherite among themselves anymore, because the candidates proposed to replace her are much along the same lines as Truss is.

    1. Keep taxes high on the productive middle class, and ££££££ spend-spend-spend !! So this is what passes for conservatism among the Tories? They deserve to lose to the Commies.

  4. I guess it’s time to usher in another “Stand With Ukraine” brain-dead moron to push the button. She must not have had the guts to trigger Armageddon. Klaus was not happy with her.

  5. It took how long for the Tories to find Liz Truss? Months?

    How long will they need to find their next failure?

    1. She didn’t resign, she was defenestrated, probably given a nice golden handshake in brown paper bag to go w/o making a lot of noise.

      1. But she only allowed 8 days for the party to chose a replacement. Otherwise I guess she will call an election, which the Tories would lose. Only the PM can call an election, so there is a little revenge in her deadline maybe.

  6. Danielle Smith and Pierre Poilievre take heed. Back-track on us and Truss’s demise will seem like it took forever in comparison.

    1. The problem, as Trump admitted soon after taking office, is that you are virtually alone against a seamless coalition of lobbyists, media, bureaucrats and just-us officials backed by police and armies. The MAGA movement gives Trump – and let’s face it, no one else – some power to oppose that vast, almost hegemonic bloc but Smith and Poislievre so far lack potent support in depth. Look how long it took Reform to assemble enough support to spawn a new Conservative party .. and how quickly liberals infiltrated and destroyed it (Charest, McKay, Scheer, O’Toole – yes, you).

      If, by Divine providence, Conservatives get a majority government under Poislievre, their very first act should be to turn the CBC over to some organization with journalistic integrity (Epoch Times for example) so that Canadians can hear something other than 24/7 leftist propaganda.

      1. Smith needs to do a 180 on 1/4 to 1/3 of her platform, she needs to start listening to her rural constituents (because we are the most politically active), she needs to grow a spine and she needs to learn to never apologize after speaking the truth, no matter how many and how loud the Progs p!ss & moan. Then, when she learns she works for the taxpayers instead of the other way around, she’ll have a ton of support.

        Until then, she’s merely a space holder. She wants our support, she’ll need to earn it. The thumbscrews are coming out.

      2. No. Sell the CBC to “The Friends of the CBC” for $1 (one dollar). Let them take care of it. Margaret Attwood and friends are all stinking rich; I am sure they will love to pay for it.

  7. Can’t say I blame her. Probably took a good look around parliament and said “I don’t have a big enough shovel for all this ****.”

  8. I feel like she got fired for leading with tax cuts. That should trouble everyone not working for the government or a major bank.

  9. Meh…rearranging the deck chairs. The UK is doomed and all the smart ones left more than half a century ago.

  10. Conservative policies are not welcome in the U.K. Conservative Party where the mindless mushy middle rules by honoring all the ratcheted statism that has evolved since they back-stabbed Thatcher. Carry on subsidizing your energy consumption of all that energy you’ve driven away.

    1. No, the problem is, as in many places in the West, that those who “go into” politics do so without a philosophical underpinning or any cause beyond their own ego and election possibility; life at the trough is the prize. They can even make themselves feel good by “doing good” by spending other peoples money on what should be charitable work; or virtue signalling their care for the environment by advancing environmental laws that actually make life worse for people.

      Consequently, they are easily manipulated because the successful ones are shallow, with advisers and PR agents that tell them how to present themselves, what to say and who to support.

      They even have a well-developed government bureaucracy to use as a shield when things go wrong.

  11. “Her Sept. 23 economic plan included a raft of tax cuts — paid for by government borrowing — that investors worried Britain couldn’t afford.” In my household we borrow to pay for things not to pay for income. The left gets away with transforming the language to their benefit on almost every issue.

    1. Astute comment.

      It is also worth considering that governments don’t borrow as we peons do, for we must put something on the line whereas government just makes promises that it knows will never be kept.
      Government borrowing is much like printing money; it is recorded numbers signifying transfers from one cloud to another – some rain falls on everyone and is soon forgotten.

      Of course it isn’t government debt that matters in the end; it is the ability of the economy to forge on – and that’s where tax cuts come in as a catalyst. Healthy economies can drag bags of debt without breaking a sweat, so borrowings that are distributed without hampering the economy shouldn’t be viewed with alarm.

      1. Yes, on many banknotes, there are phrases that effectively say “The Government promises to pay the bearer on demand one Smarty” The biggest lie ever invented by man.

  12. Rishi Sunak is waiting in the wings to take her place. Awesome! Why just the other day I was thinking what Britain needs right now is a former employee of Goldman Sachs.

  13. Who will the Nazi 4th Reich from Davos choose as their next “leader’ of not so great Britian?

    I bet they choose someone who is not white skinned, that’ll fix everything.

      1. I don’t disagree but Sunak is a stinking rich globalist who would love most to spend time in his California mansion.

        Isn’t Democracy great?

  14. Just the mere mention of The Duran is going to send our resident Davos Parrot into a frenzy of Russian bloodlust. Just wait until it’s morning in Beijing. I guarantee it.

  15. I heard about this late last night our time. completely unsurprised, I was.

    I remember thinking, “they’d be better off under that utter piece of shite Oliver Cromwell”!!!

    No idea who there, if anyone, would actually be any good. And now they also have Charles III or, as I dub him, ‘Ethelred the Unready II’, which is probably far too harsh on Ethelred I…!

    Watching the U.K. in its death throes is not nice.

    1. Some criticize them yet they predicted, almost to the day, when Liz Truss would be forced out. They now are predicting that some “event” will be orchestrated will be precipitated by the elites to force an election. Or maybe Labour will be allowed to take power without an election. It’s all so ENTIRELY CORRUPT. But I don’t sense that Canada or America is much different.

      1. Or Australia or New Zealand…

        A private island or artificial one is daily looking more necessary…
