He would have been 12 or 13 in 1970 so there is probably a good chunk of the '60's he doesn't remember. Nevermind 1939-45.

the ovum was created while his mother was in the womb, and thus he likely lived through the entirety of the war, and possibly even the entirety of the great depression

How bad do you have to gently caress up so that people want Truss to be pm instead of you

I've got to assume they're just doing the same thing they did for boris where they want an easily controlled clown pm to soak up the flak and well that didn't turn out so great last time but this time it'll be great trust me

Truss is the closest to Boris and Boris' platform of "do Brexit, spend money" is way more popular than bloodless fiscal conservatism, even if the man himself has been damaged at the moment

Yeah gently caress it why not. They're all terrible but Truss is also weird and awkward so it seems like the funniest option.



Although she does seem the most likely to kill us all by doing something like stumbling on a nuclear sub and falling on the launch controls or trying to speak Russian and insulting their mothers.

So I'm not seeing a downside really

I went to Liz Truss's website to see if she had a platform/On The Issues page I could study but she just has a brief biography and a note that she has the most instagram subscribers of any PM, plus a donation box

How long could Truss possibly last as PM.

Even Boris was charming despite being stupid. Truss only has the stupid.
