Absolutely brutal book review !

Liz Truss’s memoir is ludicrous and shows how unworthy of office our shortest-serving PM was. 1⭐

It’s rare for a political memoir to be as self-serving and poorly composed as ‘Ten Years to Save the West’, in which Truss recaps her doomed, disastrous 49 days in office. Whether she’s being informed of the Queen’s death or crashing the economy, the deluded former PM reserves the greatest sympathy for herself

My local Tory councillors are nothing like the useless bunch in Government and the local Labour council is a shitshow so I won't be taking any notice of the that slogan today thanks.

Maybe later in the year when it really counts.

Yep - fair point. 👍 

Personally, I never really took much notice of local politics. Most people seem to complain about the classic set of: bins, poop, and potholes.

Yeah, the council are crap but Labour always win regardless in Cov. To be fair, I think our local Labour councillor is decent enough, but George Duggins does what benefits George Duggins rather than the city.
