Liz ‘I claim Amazon Prime on expenses’ Truss wants to return to mainstream politics

Liz Truss: she should stick to her (publicly-funded) telly.

Read this story, from July last year:

People at the time were incensed:

And now it seems she wants to get back into mainstream politics.

It seems she thinks she still has a lot to say.

Perhaps someone should tell her to sit quietly and watch her telly.

Have YOU donated to my crowdfunding appeal, raising funds to fight false libel claims by TV celebrities who should know better? These court cases cost a lot of money so every penny will help ensure that wealth doesn’t beat justice.

Does anybody STILL believe Labour’s lies about Jeremy Corbyn and anti-Semitism?

Laughter: it’s the only sane response left to the wild nonsense spouted by Liz Kendall and the rest of the Starmer-Labour mob.

ITV’s Robert Peston opened a can of worms when he invited Jeremy Corbyn and Liz Kendall onto his TV show.

Mr Corbyn has been treated disgracefully by the Labour Party, having been suspended from its Parliamentary membership by current leader Keir Starmer on the basis of a flimsy falsehood about anti-Semitism. Kendall is a senior member of Starmer’s team, who promotes that falsehood.

You can hear her doing it in this clip:

Kendall had the lion’s share of attention there, so let’s have a balancing view (look out for the strong language):

For those of you who have a milder disposition:

Let’s have a think about what she was saying. Failure to apologise? What’s this then?

Note that Mr Corbyn said he accepted EHRC report, and the Forde Report showed the scale of anti-Semitism in the Labour Party was as Corbyn said:

Additionally:

She’s proud that Starmer has changed Labour. But what did she mean by “firm action”? Well…

“The “firm action” @Keir_Starmer has taken – which Liz Kendal is so proud about – is to expel dozens of left-wing Jews from @UKLabour, making it more antisemitic than it ever was with Jeremy Corbyn as leader,” tweeted “Oliver”.

Why did she talk about the Armed Forces and pride in the UK? ‘George SUROS Regime’ tweeted: “Quite frankly I am amazed that Jeremy Corbyn would appear on this tv show when Peston himself would be aware that Corbyn has apologised time and time again. Liz Kendall suddenly shifting the goalposts from antisemitism to “armed forces” was an incredibly dumb move.”

And why did she twist his words, trying to make it seem as though he’d said that the evil of anti-Semitism was exaggerated?

Mr Corbyn has won praise for his dignified response to Kendall’s tirade:

And there has been a huge backlash against Kendall online:

“People like her are the reason I didn’t vote before Jeremy Corbyn became leader, and why I won’t vote for them now,” tweeted Andrew Stephen. “Utterly horrendous and extremely unpleasant individual who’s personality won’t allow her to give a flying duck about anyone but herself.”

‘Sharon’ tweeted: “One duplicitous lady. The fact that Jeremy Corbyn still bothers them, shows that they know full well what they did was dishonest and has led to all this turmoil we are now facing.”

(For the sake of balance, I should point out that some have tweeted in support of Kendall.)

But why bring back this old debate at all? It is months since the Forde Report confirmed that factionalism within Labour had killed the party’s chance of winning an election with Jeremy Corbyn as leader, and anti-Semitism was one of the sticks used to beat him at that time. There’s no current news that justifies bringing this back.

So is it just a ‘dead cat’ – a distraction to take attention away from other news?

Well, there’s this…

… and this…

… and this:

It’s a flawed strategy, if the aim is to paint Jeremy Corbyn and socialists as villains. Remember: he was right about many of the Tory-created crises facing the UK now.

For example, the tweet by Dan Hodges, below, hasn’t aged well:

And just because he’s been booted off the Labour benches by Starmer and his bullies, that doesn’t mean Mr Corbyn has gone quiet. You can see what he’s doing in a few online shows coming up soon:

What do you think? A dead cat? Or is there more behind this? Perhaps there’s something coming that we’re yet to discover?

What would happen if Liz Truss did panto? Find out here

There are a few well-observed jabs in this Liv Struss parody from Nerine Skinner.

The thought of her doing pantomime probably really is too terrifying for today’s children, but as a comedy concept – well, see for yourself if you think it has legs:

The last word on Liz Truss is filthy – and it comes from Malcolm Tucker [EXTREME LANGUAGE]

Sometimes the social media come up with absolute pearlers.

Here, someone has mashed shortest-run PM on record Liz Truss’s words with those of Malcolm Tucker, foul-mouthed protagonist of The Thick Of It, to provide us with his wisdom on her disastrous reign.

Some might say she gets off lightly:

Sunak refuses to apologise for turmoil caused by Truss

Rishi Sunak has refused to apologise for the economic turmoil Liz Truss’s government caused.

Speaking in Bali at the G20 summit, refused to apologise six times for the decisions his forerunner made, which caused severe financial turbulence that continues at the time of writing.

But he did acknowledge that “mistakes were made,” and said: “What I want to do now is fix them.”

Why did Rishi Sunak watch Baywatch sitting on a plastic blanket? Russell Howard has… an… answer

It’s the weekend so let’s have some fun.

Here’s Russell Howard with his spot appraisal of new prime minister Rishi Sunak.

Russell goes over the public’s glee at being rid of Liz Truss, their inability to pronounce Sunak’s name, and even touches on the new prime minister’s childhood when, apparently, he watched Baywatch while eating pizza, perched on a plastic blanket.

Why?

Tory government suppressed hacking of Liz Truss’s phone, it’s claimed – to protect Braverman?

Hacked: the photo is a mock-up – but it’s indicative of her communication skills that she was reckoned not to be able even to hold a phone properly.

Information is valuable – depending on the timing of its release.

Take the claim that Liz Truss had such poor security, as Foreign Secretary, that her phone was hacked around April and hundreds of confidential documents were copied from it – including information about the war in Ukraine and political conversations with Kwasi Kwarteng.

It is being said that the facts were known over the summer but were prevented from becoming public knowledge by Boris Johnson and Cabinet Secretary Simon Case. Why?

Was it to protect Truss while she was making her bid to become prime minister?

That would be corruption of a very high order and all those involved should be punished – if the corrupt UK legal system defines a crime that covers it.

Some details are on the BBC website here – and this is how I found out: I discovered them on Twitter (I was at a family function and not at my desk):

But let’s get back to timing. Why are we learning about this now? Could it be because Home Secretary Suella Braverman is in trouble, after being reappointed to her job despite revelations of multiple security breaches from her own phone?

Some certainly think so…

But these are two very similar stories. Why not combine them and reach the obvious conclusion?

And what do you think that conclusion is?

It’s that Conservative ministers leak like sieves and shouldn’t be anywhere near confidential information. Right?

Liv Struss makes one last prime ministerial speech [VIDEO/PARODY]

Satire takes a little longer than commentary but can be twice as incisive.

However, its effectiveness is entirely up to the viewer or listener.
