Just re-heated crap from her hustings speeches, with new things to repeat three times and that terrible anti-growth coalition shite that appears to be everyone in the country who isn't a Conservative. It was fucking shite and she won't be around to do another leader's speech. Fascinating to think about who'd vote Tory just because GDP has gone up. She's not yet made clear why growth is required and how her government will ensure it improves living standards - beyond promising tax cuts. But tax cuts don't buy the effective public services, even when they're not being swallowed by inflation and rising interest rates, that are synonymous with better living standards for many people.

Unsurprisingly, Mike Pickering (founder of M People) has been on James O'Brien's show to say that he wants nothing to do with Truss or the Tories and would have sent a cease and desist to the venue if he had of known Moving On Up was going to be used.
I've also seen a picture of Heather Small wearing a "Stop Rwanda" t-shirt, so I'm assuming she would say similar.

I doubt there's many bands that would want to be associated with this Prime Minister either.

My parents once had dinner with Heather Small. Apparently she's lovely.

Haha. Labour taking full advantage of Truss delivering her speech in front of a blue screen!

He should send his brother Ronnie round.

I thought it was a lovely touch from that Greenpeace pair that when their banner got nicked they just produced another identical one from nowhere and carried on

They would have had to either go with 'Deeply Dippy' or this

Liz Truss "I know how you feel because I have the same hopes and fears. I want what you want."
Good. At last, we can agree - fuck off.

Turns out there are only a few ropey cover versions on there. Out of morbid curiosity I checked out one of the bands' cover version of Banquet and had a glol at just how fucking bad it is;

So to sum up today it's that there's apparently a cabal of people wanting to stop the country from growing and the teachers of Britain are mediocre. Nice.

Also Liz wants growth to happen. Well yeah, no fucking shit. We're more concerned about HOW or even if you make it happen.

Another heist successfully completed, and they drive off laughing with at least 2 more years in charge stuffed in the boot.
It's time to string these fuckers up from lampposts.

It's all so tedious - yes, the country needs fixing but YOU HAVE BEEN IN CHARGE FOR THE PAST 12 YEARS.
Cloth-eared cnuts - no shame, disingenuous with every utterance, and heads up their own arse - Think that's about it.

How about doing something to make gigabit cost less than £55 if you're in a Openreach only FTTP area. Fingers crossed it'll drop a bit when they bring in the new 1.2/1.8 speeds. Ironically enough it's her hero Maggie's fault that we're decades behind other countries in our fibre rollout Comes down to scale innit. Once more network is out there, ISPs will invest in backend systems to provide retail competition over openreach's network. It's not worth them doing until there's critical mass though. Plus the regulatory environment has to support that too.

Come next year, they'll have been in power for longer than the last Labour government and the combined time of the Wilson, Callaghan and Attlee governments.
We really need to see people beating the fuck out of them with this stick.

The man trying to snatch a flag from two peacefully protesting women really would have deserved an elbow to the teeth from one of them. I know that then turns it not peaceful but the sight of it made me livid. If you aren't security and there's no threat to anyone, don't get handsy. Tenner bet he wouldn't have done it to two blokes.
