Truss Shares Her 'Wisdom' With Defeated Tories

Liz Truss has been piping up again, full of advice for her defeated party. But it might perhaps be best if the party who depends on elderly voters did not listen to someone who thinks people shouldn't be allowed to retire, or that boasts of removing funding for health and social care.

[@embalancer6146]

I'm always reminded about this worrying paragraph from the Telegraph -"In an age of social media, voters care less than ever about consistency. They want cheaper houses but no new development, greener policies alongside lower heating bills, tax cuts plus spending increases, lockdown handouts but not inflation. The candidate who promises these things will generally beat the one who insists that it’s complicated." But this is why the party are trying not to let the members vote for the leader again.

[@nickwalsh527]

I've historically been a Tory, though I didnt vote for the Party in 2019 or 2024, but I have never been a member of the Tory Party which is full of golf club bores, octogenarians who remember the Empire and gormless 20-something Tory boys. It is this this sliver of the conservative voting poulation that we have to thank for Truss and Johnson. I prefer not to be associated with them.

Oh the hypocrisy! Truss is getting a £115K pension at the age of 48 for less than 50 days work and tells the rest of us that we should wait until 80 for the meagre amount that is the state pension. She ought to spend a bit of that £115 p.a. on some top level shrinks.

I mean she is right - increasing the pension age to 80 would mean far fewer pensioners so would cut the state pension bill considerably. And on the health and social care I assume that was the first stage of an incomplete policy.

And then to slash the costs of prisons, police and the justice system simply make it illegal for people to commit crimes ... oh, hang on ... errrr. Maybe this might need a bit more thought.

You know those organisations that refuse to disclose their funding and who's spokespeople get very offended when people have suggested that they are shilling for big oil or tobacco or billionaires (but of course refuse to tell anyone who they represent). The same groups that have infiltrated most of the Tory party and somehow get spots on the BBC, LBC, Sky etc. even though they represent no one. They were the groups who hailed her mini-budget and are still pushing the same BS even though it so clearly failed (and was based on years of debunked and failed trickle down economic theory). They obviously have influence in the right wing papers and are still pushing her, I have seen the telegraph push similar nonsense that the Tories weren't far right enough and that is what the people really want. It just shows how desperately we need media reform, that these papers can push such nonsense propaganda pieces and we see these bonkers people represented on our media for a 'fair and balanced' viewpoint when one view point is the truth and represents common sense, experts, data, etc. but for 'balance' we have to see bat shit crazy theories from secretly funded think tanks and the media pretends this represents an alternative view and basically do little push back. Meanwhile genuine political parties like the Lib Dems, Greens, SNP etc. that have policies to improve people's lives and tackle the real issues get barely any air time, but we are hearing from the likes of Truss, Farage and these secret think tanks all the time.

In the latest edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, they have the exact same picture of Liz Truss that Phil used in this video, on the page where it explains the Dunning-Kruger effect.

I love the fact that the Tories think that Badanoch -a woman that can pick a fight in an empty room, and the utterly demented frothing at the mouth lunatic Braverman are the best the Tories have to be their esteemed leader. And that half of them are so incandescently bright, they want to join Reform UK Ltd, to ensure they lose their seats.

Took all of 2 seconds . "Don't you think, she looks ill" -dr who lol

[@IMBlakeley]

I used to live in Hunt's constituency I was so disappointed that Paul Follows the LD candidate did not make it. *If* only Labour had stood aside the few thousand votes they got was more than Hunt's slim margin and there's is bog all chance Labour getting elected there.

Truss really wanted to limit state pension to people over 80 - accompanied by both parents - and in posession of their own death certificate ! But - after what happened to her as PM - she decided to soften it somewhat.

[@user-jc4lb5mm7x]

The only wisdom Truss ever had anything to do with was her wisdom teeth.

As a newbie pensioner,i resent the Tories via the personal allowance.If Sunak and Hunt had knocked that up by even maybe another £1000,to about £13500,MAYBE more pensioners might have thought about voting for them..Instead they chose an insane policy of cutting Nat Ins.Which i think pensioners saw as robbing them to bribe working age people to vote for them.How did that go Rishi?

In his book, Rory Stewart discusses how she had an immature approach to complex problems when he was a junior minister in her department.

[@ThomasMadden-hd1oz]

Truss is a major reason why the Conservatives got thrown out of office.

Why should we take advice from someone a lettuce short of a salad?

[@MazzaEliLi7406]

Thank you.

[@timibuli1501]

Let her push the red button🤣

[@GeorgeSabberton]

An MP is elected to represent their constituents they had a hospital with a roof held up by 800 repeat eight hundred agro props she did nothing so would you vote for her?

[@blazzz13]

Farage backed her mini budget- something that Robinson brought up and needs to be mentioned more often

[@badbooks476]

Great video. Farage loved Trusses budget so much, his manifesto was Trussenomics on steroids. Tories been quietly trying some trickle down economics idea’s for years

[@thegreatvincenzo8159]

Clearly, we need less imported cheese.
