Former PM said ‘that’s not funny’ when remote-controlled banner was unfurled behind her at event in Suffolk
Last part of the article with a grain of “nottheonion” vibe :
Truss has become vocal on US politics, last month addressing Republican supporters to learn lessons from her brief time in No 10. She insisted: “I’ve learned how powerful the unelected bureaucracy is. You have to win in November … you have to dismantle the leftist state … they are devious, they are ruthless and they are out to get you.”
The former prime minister has previously criticised the Daily Star’s lettuce joke, insisting it was not “particularly funny”, noting in June: “I just think it’s puerile.”
She went on to criticise the British media, claiming it was “known throughout the world for being particularly vociferous” and it is not “particularly deferential to politicians”.
The banner stunt came shortly after Truss voiced her support for Elon Musk, who has claimed the UK has a two-tier policing system. She said on X: “I am appalled by the attacks on free speech in Britain and Europe. We can’t be truly free without free speech. Good for Elon Musk and X for standing up to these bullies.” Musk responded, thanking her for support.
Amazing how someone can be so right but twisted 180 degrees!
Like the US, the UK DOES have a two-tier policing system: the far right riot in the streets of most if not all major cities in England (based on an Islamophobic RUMOR) and get coddled, while the left are brutalized by cops at peaceful protests (against racial discrimination and corporations hastening the demise of the human race) if they even manage to avoid being THROWN IN JAIL FOR SEVERAL YEARS FOR PLANNING A PEACEFUL PROTEST!
It’s amazing how the privileged bullies can just pretend that the opposite of reality is true and gain support for it!
