Sorry it’s nothing personal. In truth I have a lot of sympathy for you.

I have a cousin who is a moron and I know how hard it is for him to get through life. How much of a confusing mystery the world is to people of intellectual abilities like him and you.

Sounds like a typical leg-before-wicket English person.

I have no understanding of the issues involved here.

Income taxes on the wealthy were to be cut from 45% to 40%, to stimulate spending and investment.

Instead, according to the European MSM, this proposed minor tax cut has caused the bond market for government debt to become psychotic, which now threatens to cause the entire UK economy to collapse!

Sorry - it is no longer possible to believe ANYTHING written by the neo-Marxist press and the Deep State bureaucrats.

Why would anyone listen to a #NeverTrump, pro-vaxx, pro-Biden war newbies like yourself?

She’s certainly no Margret Thatcher - not even close as I see it. But I have no problem when Leaders fire people who are not getting the results needed.

It’s my understanding that Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng gave a neo-Thatcherite that Milton Friedman would approve of. The usual government “rent seekers” started howling. Seems to me he was proposing the right course and Truss lost her nerve.

Typo

“.... gave a neo-Thatcherite .... “
replace with
“...gave a neo-Thatcherite speech....”

Not sure, but considering you reply so often you must be hanging on to every word I say.

The question was how to do something positive for the people of Britain, not how do the incompetent elites cling to power.

But thanks for admitting the Tories are as popular as having root canal right now.

You engaged me on this thread and I replied. Simple solution here; keep your warmongering to yourself.
