Truss’ (please correct apostrophe use) first act is to drive around London in a big column of cars during rush hour so she gets to avoid the rain when she makes her epoch shaping ‘hi I’m Liz, the new boss’ speechlet in Downing Street.

Not her choice.
Security's responsibility.

I love the way all the "hate her cos she's a Tory" lot on here are writing her off before she even starts.

Our politics needs to ****ing grow up.

She’s not magically appeared today. She has a track record people can base an opinion on along with being a ****ing flip-flopping populist Tory.

Have you heard her talk?
No, I’ve heard her read aloud though. Needs coaching.

Quote from Twitter:
“There’s no sign of critical thinking behind the eyes. She’s like a pigeon looking at a Rubik’s Cube”

It’s in nobody’s interests for her to fail, I just wish I had more (ok any) confidence in her. When close colleagues describe her as thick, it’s a worry. But, cabinet appointments aside, her first decision if the predictions are right, will be to freeze energy prices and that’s a good thing, no matter what it costs. Plus Priti Useless has resigned, hoorah.

What makes me laugh is these dumb Labour politicians wearing Never Kissed a Tory T-shirts (sixth form level humour anyway) forget that a large part of the constituents they represent are likely to be Tory voters.

Longest serving member of Johnson's cabinet, plenty of justification for not liking her right there.

Plus she has just appointed a religious zealot and climate change denier as secretary for Energy and Industrial strategy. Not a great start if she wants to win over even the slightly sceptical let alone those if us who think she's a braindead cheese head.
