like the queen this thread will never die: in which we ALL resign (ourselves to disgusting miseries to post-boris politics 2022)

Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss. That graph is plummeting faster than the pound.

Dino's really doing a public service with these. Would have been nice to see the official BBC accounts doing this!

thankfully we have similarly acute and perspicacious journalists working at a national level for the BBC, and let's not forget the gentlemen of the press too, reporting without fear or favour on the goings on of our rulers

has anyone considered she's enjoying the humiliation?

are you suggesting she doesn't mind being tied up by aggressive adversaries?

Hmm, tricky one for a media strategist- interview on Today with a client presenter whose deference can be absolutely relied upon, or ten interviews with local radio djs trying to make a nae for themselves

what a day for Mason to soil himself on the bus again

Regular fountain of knowledge that guy

Johnson was bad enough, but this complete denial of reality on their part is reminiscent of ... I don't know... Vladimir Putin!

“What about the sea life deaths?”
Truss completely blanks - I'll have to look into that

FFS has she even heard 'Earth Song'?

if Putin talked about making Pie's bigger then it would actually make more sense.

Don’t want to defend the guy but he’s an Arsenal season ticket holder, ofc he’s not going to say “oh yeah Kane great!”

Cannot wait..

Have just checked and at the end of her programme last weekend @bbclaurak trailed the PM’s appearance on her show this Sunday morning. Assuming that’s 100%, it should be a very big moment. Today’s regional round was tough, this one should be forensic.

oooh it's one of the "big hitters" turn to forensically grill her, as Mason would have it. Or something else that rhymes with that

It's OPERATION ROLLING PARTRIDGE!!! Liz Truss is going to hit BBC •local radio• stations this morning where a bunch of sleep-deprived non-expert presenters will throw her soft questions, while she dodges the heavy hitters. (h/t @politico ) pic.twitter.com/fTmlD6FPRC

like i used to give the guy credit for at least knowing a little about how the sausage is made despite being a loon but he really doesn't know that, and now i wonder if he ever did

I don't think he understands sausage-making correctly from a Marxist viewpoint. Actually he's more than just a spice addled clown who is always wrong, he's also a security state collaborator/arselicker/full-time snitch.

Here is an Ex-Corbyn advisor who isn't selling themselves.

Twenty points ahead Twitter maintaining a respectful silence in awe of how badly the tories have to fuck it

truss reckons the freefall on friday is due to a "global crisis".

Putin's war in Ukraine, to be precise.

although when you actually hear what she says she doesn't join the two, that was a bit of editorialising. 'there is a global crisis caused by war in ukraine' and the pound bit is a later question.

My bus was 10 minutes late this evening because of Putin's war in Ukraine.

I heard it was Stalin'

Never surrender!

Any other leader would be 40 points ahead, against this Tory government as they destroy people's mortgages and pensions by the day. WIth a heavy heart, Sir Keir Starmer must resign. It is every citizen's final duty to go into the recycling tanks and become one with all the people https://t.co/ulaVSrkNJj

Lool I was waiting for 40 p-ts ahead being the new 20. Kieth is knocking it out the park! but tbf the park has shrunk a lot this week. It's just a little square plot of grass now and the ball has sadly trundled to the edge of it.

NEW: YouGov poll for The Times puts Labour *33-points* ahead – the highest the party has ever recorded in ANY published poll since the late 1990s.https://t.co/VX8UZbFs1G pic.twitter.com/xjSJJl67BY

— Lara Spirit (@lara_spirit) September 29, 2022

will 33 do?

I know it's the same thing but I feel like "Tories 33 points behind" is closer to what is really happening

the painful thing is this is fuck all to do with Kieth, if a recycling bin was currently LOTO it would be this far ahead

And there is no sense that anything will change for the better.

he will thank the Conservative membership for saving his career by keeping the UK on hard austerity for another 4 years.

it might provide some minor entertainment watching the FBPE crew lose their shit

still think there's a bunch of juicy public spending cuts coming, and as the economic situation settles back down the polling gap will fall

I want to apportion some of the blame of this onto Mark Carney. Not because it's in anyway his fault - just because he's revoltingly smug and I genuinely want him to die.

fair

thinking of all those who watched food bank usage, child poverty and homelessness soar for twelve years and were still willing to consistently inflict tory govt after tory govt on the rest of us until exactly one week ago, when their own pensions and mortgages became affected 👍 https://t.co/xtCE8Mz54Q

how much is there left to cut from what is already arguably the most ungenerous and punitive benefits system amongst G7 nations. I wasn't asking obv and neither is this braindead moron it seems.

having said that truss' words about the budget were slightly misreported yesterday the guy on the radio this morning started by saying that it was a global crisis caused by russia.
