Liz Truss is ‘in talks’ with Reform UK, because satire isn’t in big enough trouble already – 14 top responses
With the local elections less than two weeks away for more than 20 English councils, Reform UK has been pulling out all the stops in its concerted effort to justify all the appearances its leaders make on natonal television.

As if that weren’t sacrifice enough from the party of Farage, Tice and 30p Lee – plus some others whose names escape not just us but most people, rumours suggest they’ve been in talks with a big political beast …Liz Truss.

These reactions give an idea of the consensus.

Reform UK consulting Liz Truss? Guess they’re aiming for a world record in economic self-destruction. After all, she turned the pound into confetti last time. Let’s see how quickly they can do it again. pic.twitter.com/4yD7vV8cei

You can imagine the conversation at Reform Party HQ.
“Let’s poach the Tories brightest and best talent!”
“None of them are interested Nigel.”
“Well OK let’s ask LIZ TRUSS to join us… instead then” pic.twitter.com/bHm3gsZflZ

“Never interfere with the enemy when he is in the process of destroying himself.”
Translated to a more modern audience:
