You’ll be aware by now of the new 99-page rewriting of history by Liz Truss – Bank Job.

The reason you’re probably aware of it is that it’s been panned on a level rarely seen before – including by the right-wing Telegraph.

‘(I)n Bank Job, her preposterous book-length attempt to justify the policy – an attempt reminiscent of the worst sort of saloon-bar bore, ranting in a corner while other patrons realise it’s time to go home – Truss never concedes she was remotely at fault.’

‘Of all the books I have ever reviewed that purported to offer a serious thesis, this is without question the most deranged. If you are seeking a Christmas present for someone you really don’t like, give them a copy.’

The final chapter included her wild imaginings about the world that could have been, if only the lefty bankers and mainstream media hadn’t conspired to scupper her plans.

“Several missions to Mars have now been launched from Britain’s space port.”

Somebody’s been sucking up to Elon Musk a bit too much. Of course, sucking up to Elon Musk at all is too much.

Once again, the 49-day PM found herself the target of a lot of mockery.
