Even those with open eyes look as if they wish that they were somewhere else.

 

MPs trying to get Truss and Kwarteng investigated for insider trading.

EDIT: For some context COVID deaths Uk said to be 207k

 

There's a time scale to add. Austerity additional deaths between 2012 and 2019 if I read it correctly, covid 2-2.5 years. Have to say many thousands of the1/2m plus deaths in total were avoidable.

 

Just so that people don't forget who they are, the "What is a Woman?" guy suggesting that it's a good thing to marry and impregnate 16 year olds.




But it's totally that they're concerned fOr ThE cHiLdReN

 

Stealth taxes.


FOR each £1 the Government gives to homes it will take £2 in stealth taxes, says the Institute for Fiscal Studies.

The IFS says this will be due to freezes to tax and benefit thresholds, which usually rise with inflation.

But income tax bands have been frozen for four years and other tax and benefit bands indefinitely.

IFS’s Tom Wernham said millions of Britons will end up paying far more in taxes or losing vital benefits.

 

And deaths due to austerity weren’t avoidable???

 

This word could have been invented for Liz Truss.

 

Yes, of course they were, as my post reads "many thousands of the 1/2m plus deaths in total were avoidable".

 

I couldn't work out whether you meant Covid or Austerity deaths and were implying the others weren't avoidable
I'm now thinking you meant both?

 

I did indeed.

 

When the Times turns on you…

 

Wait for the Sun to follow. Truss looks ****ing demented in that picture.
