    A woman so awful that after meeting her, the queen literally died.

    Ms Truss was speaking ahead of the publication of her book - her account of her time in Number 10.

    More a pamphlet really.

    Why on earth are we still paying attention to this idiot and treating her opinions as if they are worthy of consideration?

      Because she was UK pm. It is a reminder of what kind of standards, or rather lack thereof, the office has.

      Because that is what our media landscape has degenerated into.

      She’s doing the media rounds because her book about her 49 days as PM is released. Apparently almost everything, including causing everyone’s mortgage to sharply rise, wasn’t her fault.

    The ‘world was safer’ argument is an especially bizarre one to make this week, of all weeks, when the Middle East is ‘on the cusp’ of a wider conflict that was partly caused by Donald Trump’s unilateral withdrawal from a treaty with Iran. And Trump also inflamed tensions in that same region by moving the US’ Israeli Embassy to Jersualem. As to conflict in ‘the West’ specifically, he also endorsed and continues to endorse the very people pushing the West towards conflict, and himself caused violent conflict in the US, which was part of ‘the West’ last time I checked.

      Not just the withdrawal, but also the assassination of a Revolutionary Guards general, which Iran themselves said was why they staged October 7 as an act of revenge.

      Don’t forget about freeing the 5000+ ISIS fighters & handing Afghanistan back over to them.

        There are just so many counter examples! I honestly cannot think of a major political figure who’s made such an utterly bizarre argument.

      I doubt anyone in the us has any idea who she is. Especially Trump followers

        Many of us pay attention to world events. And I was cheering on the Lettuce!

    Quick, someone ask the lettuce their opinion! We need an experienced post-holder as a counter point!

    FYI Mz Truss, the Head Of Lettuce endorsed Biden. And Mr Lettuce lasted longer than you. Your “best by” date has passed!

    May as well cancel the election now that it’s a forgone conclusion.

    Of course she does. How was this woman ever Prime Minister? Even for a moment?

    Considering how her month long stint as PM went, I fully welcome her endorsement of Trump
