Someone posted a partial interview with a well known conservative journo here a few days back, his very considered and clearly insightful view is that the wackos who’ve been parading as the (not quite as wacko) Tories for the last decade are indeed beholden to the interests of a very small and super rich network. Liz held her launch at an exclusive club notorious for being the cubby house of said cabal, thrilled at being able to play the Queen of the World Eaters for a little. No doubt Rishi has long enjoyed the cucumber and unicorn sandwiches and staved off the old country malaria with GnT’s made from the tears of the unicorns children.
Granted I may be getting a little carried away, but my suspicion is she and her nuclear spore growths will be just fine in the society they live in, which is not the one they pretend to govern.
She’ll be the great what could have been for conservatives within five years.
They’ll be saying she wasn’t that bad and things would have been better if she was only given a chance.

And it seems Liz Truss was as professional and relaible as Foreign Secretary as a rusty old gate. Not my flavour of news source but they’ve got the scoop. So sick and tired of the idiocy at the top of government.
What’s your opinion on the UK - Australia FTA, international trade expert @bigallan? Did they get a poor deal, or just an actual fair deal as opposed to typical European deals where Europe holds the whip hand in negotiations?
If they think it’s bad, they’re probably aggrieved that they didn’t rip us off as much as either they have historically or the US is doing now with their trade “deal”.
