Liz Truss tells CPAC UK is ‘failing’ and needs Maga-style movement to save it
-
Summary
Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss said at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) that Britain is “failing” and called for a UK version of Trump’s “MAGA” movement to push change.
Truss, who was prime minister for only 49 days and lost her seat in last year’s election, has become a marginal figure in British politics but found support at CPAC, which now embraces Trump-style populism.
The conference featured right-wing figures from Hungary, Brazil, and the U.S., including Steve Bannon, who promoted deep state conspiracy theories.
CPAC leaders condemned globalist organizations like the UN and EU, vowing support for Trump’s return.

Is an actual lettuce.
-
Whats the counter argument from the opposition; Lettuce, you have the mic.
-
Conservatives wanting change. Hmmm.
-
Would that be the same changes that Liz Truss put forward that nose-dived the bonds market by announcing unplanned tax cuts?
-
Liz Truss giving advice on power is a joke in itself
-
After being out lasted by a lettuce, ousted as PM, then kicked out as an MP you'd think she'd get the message that she's a bit useless.
-
Piss off, cunt.
-
I'd rather listen to the other lettuce that didn't wilt.
-
Why is it that when conservatives want change they only think of torching everything to the ground?
-
OK, I have an idea for a new TV show.
Let's form a club of boomer, anti-democratic, rightwing-extremist, power hungry narcissists, and invite them to a private island and have them get stranded there because the flight authority botched traffic control (due to budget cuts, obviously).
Record it in the style of a reality TV show.
-
The problem for Truss chasing populist politics like Trump is that no one, ABSOLUTELY no one likes the insufferable idiot.
-
Eh, to much logistics and the likelihood of some dipshit trying to save them.
-
A part of Trump's politicking has been lying to the public. I'm not sure that you want to do that, whatever freedom it might provide as to policy enactment. I think that that's pretty corrosive to government credibility. Hard to build credibility, easy to damage it, and it's a useful thing to have.
I'd like to see more-effective communication as to why policy is beneficial, not just "do what we think is best, then tell the public whatever we think the public most wants to hear".
-
The tories have any credibility? The government have any credibility? Hell, politics in this country has any credibility? Catapult every MP into the Thames, then p[ave the Thames.
-
Because they're not conservatives, they're radical regressives
-
You just said the same thing twice.
-
Liz Truss can go eat a chainsaw
-
That'd be terrible for the Thames.
-
CPAC UK??
That's the saddest thing I've read all day. And that's after the concentration camp story.
