    Perhaps, but the only response I've heard so far to Truss's ridiculous writ is laughter from all sides. It won't silence Starmer and it won't impress Musk or the American loonies of his ilk. It doesn't have the ring of 'carefully constructed conspiratorial policy' at all, just idiocy.

    Don't be nasty, she can only work with the brain she has.

    I think Truss's view is similar to that of the rest of the Conservative Party now.

    If it's not a lie, it isn't true.

    Take a step back. Any part of their supposed ideology bears no scrutiny in terms of offering a logical or coherent way forward. They are in the business of causing society to self harm, so that they can exploit it. There is no argument to be won, because any logical analysis of their position would lead you to conclude that you would be deranged to sign up to it.

    So instead they are using the Russian intelligence services tactics developed to destabilise the central American countries during the cold war.... But with added blitzkrieg thanks to the speed and automatic dissemination of social media.

    Your zone is being flooded. You are trying to make sense of it, but that's your undoing. They aren't playing by your rules. There is no integrity or honestly to be found here. They are intentionally fucking with you.

    All she did that a "normal person" could stop is win an electorate. The rest of the astonishing chain of incompetence, corruption, malice and negligence that led to her becoming PM is entirely on Tory MPs and members.
    Those people should have invalidated their right to vote with that.

    The older I get, the more I realise the idiocy of the concept of universal suffrage. I simply cannot understand how those that need the most help are happy to vote in the people who will butt-fuck them the most aggressively.

    I acknowledge that denying the vote is a slippery slope so my proposed refinement could be a weighted system with an IQ/knowledge-based approach whereby everyone gets a vote but for the terminally stupid/gullible/ignorant, their vote would count for 0.1 of that of a normal sentient human.
