‘Blind Truss’
Just realised this is (satirist) Rosie Holt. It's so hard to tell what's real and what's spoof these days!
I've been talking about writing a book - 25 years of TEFL - for a few years now. I've got it in me.

Apparently Kwarteng will be sacked later today.
We really need a general election.

Now now, there's really no call for that sort of language. Let's keep it civilised, if we can, please.

I guess this will happen, because it seems inevitable.
There is a natural limit to the number of possible U-turns. Truss & co. painted themselves into a corner.
It has become farcical.
On the whole, I'd rather be in Wallenpaupack.

I recognised Michael Spicer immediately, so I wasn't fooled by this one...

Liz Truss says "mistakes have been made".
no fucking shit!
Note the careful use of the passive voice.

Re: Tory shambles
We can't have a general election because it would be undemocratic for the opposition party to only have 20 odd seats! Very dangerous for democracy!!
This was the argument I heard from a tory MP yesterday
What he didn't seem to have considered is that it would make the Lib Dems on 50 odd seats the opposition.

"Concerns about the direction of the govt"
What direction is that, exactly?
