Liz Truss Acceptance Speech........

[ToraToraTora]

"..I also want to thank our outgoing leader, my friend Boris Johnson....Boris, you got brexit done; you crushed Jeremy Corbyn; you rolled out the vaccine and you stood up to Vladimir Putin. You are admired from Kiev to Carlisle" - enough said, he did the big ticket items, thanks Boris.

Very good if you not to dispute any of the facts in it though…..because you can’t, nobody can because it’s 100% the undeniable truth, that’s why Boris hasn’t sued.

“from Kiev to Carlisle”

We’ll just stop there shall we ;-)
Do you think that was a Freudian slip or a piece of diplomatic geography

[FatticusInch]

I think she was going for another of alliteration, but failed.

She’d have been better using from Melton Mowbray to Moscow.
The former is famous for its pork pies(irony) and Moscow is where his info ends up after he’s had meetings with the Lebedev’s.

[FatticusInch]

*going for an attempt at alliteration, not another.

[naomi24]

Well, I reckon it’s wicked, fatticusinch. Lying to a little old lady and her with no one in the know to advise her too. Shameful. ;o)

You could pop along, strike her hand and tell her it’s all going to be ok…..after all, you still believe Boris did a marvellous job! PMSL

[FatticusInch]

*stroke not strike.

Ironically, she’d better get used to those too though! Lol.

The first two posts here are a sad example of the troll mentality which has wormed its way into otherwise potentially interesting discussions. No points to make, just insults. Shame on those people.

Boo Hoo!

Dont forget he also hid in a fridge....

> “you are admired from Kiev to Carlisle”

An example of one of the "pork markets moments". She paused for applause. None came. Then, after a bit of awkward silence, a lone clap breaks into a round of applause. Just like this (actually even worse, if that's possible):

Hope Truss does!
Like the cost of living crisis and the crippling energy costs!

The rabid right: redefining trolling for no apparent reason.

> an attempt at alliteration

Then Kiev to Kirkcaldy, perhaps, or even Kiev to Kilkeel (or Carrickfergus), for this new leader of the Conservative and Unionist Party. Carlisle? No wonder it was followed by silence ...

[gulliver1]

Boris's Con Crony Club would also like to thank their outgoing leader. Boris you lined our pockets with Tax payers money. You rolled out so many Covid protection contracts to your fellow Cons worth millions. We thank you .

[Peter Pedant]

so good, it is hard to see why they had to replace him
( joke ! joke ! for chrissakes)

/jno: If you think that the PM, his Cabinet and all the health care
professionals caused the death of 50,000 people you're an idiot./

Sorry jno, but I agree. Although I know you are not an idiot.

[Atheist]

MissT; have you anything to support your view?

[Ellipsis]

A pork markets moment:

MissT, they were far too slow imposing their lockdowns, and that allowed Covid to sweep the country. Other countries acted promptly and had much smaller death tolls.

How many other national leaders actually got Covid themselves in that first year? Not many that I know of.
