Liz Truss wrote about her ‘final days’ in Downing Street and Jess Phillips’ burn was simply savage
Liz Truss’s battle to cling on to any sort of relevancy – please, anything! – took her to the Daily Mail today where she serialised the bit of her book about her ‘final days in Downing Street’.

We have had some hopeless PMs before, but never one as stupid as you, wandering around like Forrest Gump in heels. https://t.co/JmJOySrd9F— Her Holiness Pope Mrs Trellis, the 1st (@theonlywayisup) April 15, 2024
You tanked the economy. What did you expect?

As leader of the Conservative Party, you were the living embodiment of ‘the establishment’..

But the most savage burn surely went to Labour MP, Jess Phillips.
