The Absolute State Of It - It's The UK Politics Thread!
Re: The Absolute State Of It - It's The UK Politics Thread!
Liz Truss is our new overlord. God help us all.

Not yet. Johnson may yet attempt to stay in power by murdering the Queen tomorrow. Can't resign if you need to have a coronation. It wouldn't be the first time he'd tried to cling unrealistically to power.
This is what, the fourth Tory PM since they took over? Christ, imagine the chaos we'd have had with Ed Milliband.

Maybe simply being a bit stupid is preferable to being actively corrupt? :/

Now begins a winter of great discontent, made glorious by the dupe of Europe...

Not really a surprise though is it? You don't put all your eggs in one basket.

You do if they're all rotten. It's called a bin.

I note that despite being foreign secretary for quite some time, Truss pronounced Kiev as the Russian "key-ev" rather than the Ukrainian "keev" during her victory speech.
Re: The Absolute State Of It - It's The UK Politics Thread!
I can't even pretend to be surprised anymore. She's utterly fucking useless. She maybe doesn't have the air of complete buffoonery that Johnson cultivated for PR purposes (I'm not suggesting he wasn't entirely inept as a leader, just that he played it up to hide the fact), so I'm interested to see just how unpopular she manages to make herself with the public.

I hate to say it, but total societal collapse is our future. Every action points to it, the "survivors" have been hedging their hordes in preparation and insulating themselves from it, ready to pick over the wreckage. We will be like Argentina which went from being one of the richest countries in the world in the early 20th century to collapsing in the early 80's.

You could argue it's already well underway. If you consider the prosperity of a nation by its liberty, its wealth, its public services and the happiness of its citizens then we're nosediving on all fronts.
Re: The Absolute State Of It - It's The UK Politics Thread!
Oh, it is well underway, Brexit has put it into top gear. By next Summer we will know for sure.

Building the future, and keeping the past alive - are one and the same thing.
