She’s right, that’s not funny. I’m still paying a stupidly high mortgage rate because of her.
But pranking her like this and watching the reaction, is indeed really funny.

Here’s a short video summary if you’re interested in some hilariously fucked up UK politics.
The first 45 sec of the video will set the stage for you.
So, this minibudget included tax cuts, coupled with a massive increase in government spending, which then caused the currency to devalue. Still don’t fully understand how it got this bad, though.
My mortgage, which I had to pretty much sacrifice 5 years of my social life and live like a pauper to even secure, given how crazy house prices are in this country, has went up £400 per month because of her. I’m on the minimum wage of £22,300 per year for a full-time job.
A lot of the problems in my life right now are directly because of Truss.
Boo fucking hoo if she doesn’t like being reminded of how much of a failure she was, is, and will forever continue to be. It’s a small price to pay compared to what plenty of others are facing.
Tried to steamroll through new economic policy that was plain stupid, which the bank of England had to intervene on to stop peoples pensions going broke. This resulted in a huge spike in interest rates that thousands of people are still affected by today. There is much more to it, but thats the short story. Fuck this woman, she should be in prison not flogging books.
The problem with Truss is that she has nothing to fall back to career wise for the rest of her life. Apart from that outrageous PM pension she has nothing to do to pass her time. Because anytime she wants to get even loosely involved in politics, the lettuce will remind her of her last attempt. And I’m absolutely fine with that 👍.
If it makes you feel any better she doesn’t get that pension https://fullfact.org/online/liz-truss-annual-allowance/
This makes me feel better that she isn’t getting any more public money and also sad that we can’t take the piss out of her.
Sadly she has a long string of speaking gigs. Her and Boris charge a premium for it.
Boris was at least a “journalist” (heavily finger quotes there). I’m not sure what Truss is apart from a political hack?
It’s all she can do. She could try to parlay her political experience into management or consultancy, but it’s clear to everyone that she was ultimately very bad at everything except climbing the greasy pole to the top of an organization full of unpleasant weirdos. Once she had the responsibility to lead in the wider world, she revealed herself as clueless.
What I learned from this article:
- Liz Truss has no sense of humour
- Liz Truss is intimidated by a picture of lettuce with googly eyes.
Why are far-right people so fucking weird?!
It’s not like a well compensated, prestigious job like prime minister requires accountability, a sense of duty or decency in 2024. Take it on the chin Liz, even if you’re fired. That was part of the deal.
