The kiss of death… I knoooow!
Ms Truss was speaking ahead of the publication of her book - her account of her time in Number 10.
More a pamphlet really.
How to care for lettuce.
Is this a reference to something. I foofled it but no light was shed.
From the context I presume it is a way of saying it’s a book no one would read, but is there more to it?
A newspaper had a webcam on a fresh head of lettuce. They wondered which would last longer. The lettuce or Liz Truss as PM. The lettuce won.
Ha Thank you very much.
Thank you for this.
Of course she does. How was this woman ever Prime Minister? Even for a moment?
Who does the cabbage endorse?
Lettuce.
Even the cabbage knows better…
Liz who?
Why on earth are we still paying attention to this idiot and treating her opinions as if they are worthy of consideration?
Because she was UK pm. It is a reminder of what kind of standards, or rather lack thereof, the office has.
She’s doing the media rounds because her book about her 49 days as PM is released. Apparently almost everything, including causing everyone’s mortgage to sharply rise, wasn’t her fault.
A woman so awful that after meeting her, the queen literally died.
Can she meet Donnie next?
She’s just a footnote. At best.
She’s a pub quiz answer.
And a god tier trivia question in 20 years. Who was prime Minister when the queen died?
That or which ‘Prime Minister was outlasted by a lettuce?’
I just love she took the record of shortest serving prime minister from a guy who was already had the pneumonia that would kill him when he took office.
Yeah she’s one for the pub quiz.
About the only use she is, aside from discrediting any policy suggestions that come out of the Institute for Economic Affairs (i.e. the Tuffton Street Twats).
I doubt anyone in the us has any idea who she is. Especially Trump followers
Many of us pay attention to world events. And I was cheering on the Lettuce!
The ‘world was safer’ argument is an especially bizarre one to make this week, of all weeks, when the Middle East is ‘on the cusp’ of a wider conflict that was partly caused by Donald Trump’s unilateral withdrawal from a treaty with Iran. And Trump also inflamed tensions in that same region by moving the US’ Israeli Embassy to Jersualem. As to conflict in ‘the West’ specifically, he also endorsed and continues to endorse the very people pushing the West towards conflict, and himself caused violent conflict in the US, which was part of ‘the West’ last time I checked.
Not just the withdrawal, but also the assassination of a Revolutionary Guards general, which Iran themselves said was why they staged October 7 as an act of revenge.
FYI Mz Truss, the Head Of Lettuce endorsed Biden. And Mr Lettuce lasted longer than you. Your “best by” date has passed!
Can someone please pull the brits aside and explain nobody cares what they think? This is getting embarassing
I love it! That internet assuredness. Ahh, it’s magical.
Nobody cares what Liz Truss thinks. But you’re on a UK community, reading a UK news outlet, continuing to talk about UK matters. Ooof, that’s embarrassing for you.
Nice list of things that no-one who can vote in a US presidential election cares about.
And yet you still care enough to comment.
Please stop. This is embarrassing for you.
Oh yeah??? Well we Americans don’t get into embarrassing situations, we get into WARS!!! /s
Hey, can y’all explain the lettuce thing to me? I think I recall it being something about when she was possibly going to be next in power that people started saying that lettuce had a longer shelf-life than she potentially did? We had a lot going on over here during that time and I never fully grasped the nuance of the lettuce joke and always kinda regretted that.
Thank you and that is HILARIOUS! How is the Daily Star still around after publicly murdering Liz Truss???
oh no I have been owned, congrats you have restored the british empire to it’s former place as world super power
Time to stop shit posting my friend. Have a nap and be kind to yourself 😊.
Sunik seems just as bad if not worse. Can any Brits elaborate on what it’s like under him?
Truss was damaging the economy. This one’s just utterly useless and keeps putting his foot in it. But he hasn’t crashed the economy so that’s a plus.
But he just bows down to the hard right, so even if he himself isn’t hard right. So he is still pretty awful.
There is a reason no one likes him. He’s completely useless so both the right and the left get irritated by him.
It’s just clock watching to be honest, waiting for him to call the election.
