      Now you understand why the other half is NOT conservative. "The market" has and will always be a cassino, a riggled one in the favor of the elites. Non elite conservatives desperately want to believe: "Hey we're conservative, we're with you, in your club". No you are not. The elites string you along when you are an asset, when your money feeds their wealth, but when that reverses, you're the first to be sacrificed. Reality is bitter.

    Truss says yes so the colleague comes back with a sandwich/meal thing. The cost was £6.99, say £7 the colleague says to Truss.
    Truss precedes to something like "£6,99? Oh I actually have the exact £6.99 for you." And proceeds to dole out the exact change including coppers and not a penny more to the apparently, quite suprised colleague.
    There you have it... Our Prime Minister, so generous as not to give a penny more to someone who goes out of their way to do them a favour.

    It id the end result of partisan political thinking. It has been happening in the US for decades, now it is happening over there. Truss is willing to borrow and borrow because she isn't thinking about the nation, but the parties. The Tories are borrowing, but Labour will have to pay it back, and they can bash Labour down the road for the trouble the Tories created.

    I noticed that democracy in the Western world has a tendency to elect people that are good at talking and socialising, but people that do not sufficiently understanding how to run a country. Liz Truss is a typical example. Within a couple of weeks of appointment, she managed to generate such a chaotic situation in the country. The entire nation suffers. Not only that, financial crisis in UK would have a devastating effect on Europe and possibly on the whole world.

As soon as I saw the summaries of their economic plans, I could immediately see that Rishi had a much better plan, and that Liz's plans were not very sensible. I was hoping for a Rishi win, as he at least seemed to know how to run the economy.
      Personally, I suspect that Liz used her tax cuts for the highest earners promise to buy her the votes that she needed to win the Tory leadership race. Essentially trading our economic wellbeing, in order to get herself into power.

The toffy nosed selection panel discounted the highly qualified rich Indian fellow in favour of the dumb white kid (Trizz Lust), who although was rather clueless & of course couldn't swim, had a neighbour/colleague who could swim, was big & brash & luckily knew it all. The first week in their new job disaster struck.
