Liz Truss blamed the plotting of an ‘underground transgender mafia’ for her downfall – 21 vote-winning takedowns
Despite having lost her seat at the last election in what was a spectacularly large swing away from the Conservatives, Liz Truss made an appearance at the Tory Party Conference, spouting many of her recent delusions, plus a few extras.
She has proved popular with the delegates.

We may never know whether the queue for her fringe event was so long because people support her far right ideologies or simply because she’s basically performing a one-woman satirical show about herself these days, and everyone wants to watch the performance.
Some notable moments during her Q&A session saw her –
Urge the UK to embrace fossil fuels
Remark on how unfunny she finds left wing comedy (There’s a shocker!)
Refuse to rule out a comeback
Insist the Tories would have done better in the election if she’d still been PM
Describe the UK as a ‘socialist country’
She also reheated a previous conspiracy theory that there was some sort of transgender plot against her.

With not a single out transgender member of Parliament, there are more people named Sarah running the country than any representatives of Truss’s so-called Underground Transgender Mafia.
The paranoid rambling saw her spectacularly mocked online.

‘Underground transgender mafia’ is a great name for a metal band. A great name for Truss is perhaps best left unsaid https://t.co/5upGsgTc9t

I am sorry to say that Liz Truss has uncovered our mafia organisation.
As the Transgender Mafia Institute (TMI) Director, Id like to apologise for the public leak of our underground operation 'Lose the Limp Lettuce'.
We are taking no questions at this time. https://t.co/Wi2sR7iBl6
