‘Liz Truss was graceless’: Truss loses her seat and cannot accept defeat 

REMOVE THE £117k ANNUAL PAYMENT SHE GETS AS A FORMER 'PM'!!!!!!!!!

Good riddance. Now give the pension back Truss. You didn't earn it and you definitely didn't deserve it.

Appalling behaviour. Her rudeness and arrogance was staggering.

Her ego is the inverse of her mental acumen.

The only thing more crazy than Truss is the people who voted for her

Truss has always been graceless and totally without manners or class. That's as well as being entitled and a bit bonkers. Case needs to be gone asap.

When even Jacob Rees Mogg shows more class than you it's really damning.

She looked like she was trying to hide a seething resentment at her downfall because it was everyone else’s fault and not hers.

Her leaving everyone waiting to begin with was embarrassing enough but her refusing to even graciously accept defeat and congratulate her opponent was disrespectful and the way she just walked out like a dear caught in headlights shows how arrogant she was thinking it was going to be an easy win.

Even in defeat she adopts her smug default setting. Narcissism personified

I'm shocked _shocked_ I tell you that the person chumming it up with Trump might not be a particularly good loser

She'll go full Trump and claim there were 15 thousand votes for her that were dumped in a nearby river

Who among us hasn't collapsed a nation's economy, and not wanted to say goodbye.

Best news ever. May we never hear from her ever again!

Graceless Truss is an extreme narcissist and also possiblyba sociopath.

It couldn't happen to a nicer Tory.

Her lack of grace only it make it funnier.

Shame on you liz truss

I'm not British but am relieved you're getting rid of those vile Tories.

By not having sociopaths as Ministers, I think the public will be pleasantly surprised at the results.

Not shocked at all. She will go down in British history as the worst person to occupy the highest office, and rightly so.

The PPE degree at Oxford has now had its reputation diminished with this Government. We need more scientists and engineers in government who understand the real problems that face us. Instead we have too many have speculators, lawyers and accountants.

She’s as mad as a box of frogs.

Truss is a hot mess inside a dumpster fire inside a train wreck. She'll be back as a Reform candidate.

How does a once liberal turn into a raving lunatic right winger and a Trump sycophant. Karma

Truss doesn't understand how to behave like a reasonable human because she is not one.

She behaved like a toddler. I don't like people chucking politicians into certain camps. I would hate anyone to put the likes of Morduant, Shapps, even Rees-Mogg in the same camp as Truss. They all left magnanimously with significant grace and were very respectful to the incumbent. Meanwhile, Truss behaved like the kid who whines when they don't always win at monopoly.

Graceless and disrespectful by Liz Truss. Not surprised by her actions.

These concession speeches are all terrible. The whole "Sorry we didn't listen"... No, you're sorry that eventually there had to be an election. If you were sorry you didn't listen, you wouldn't be getting your behinds handed to you with a labour landslide. In office, your job is to listen to the people, to serve the people. No good saying sorry after the country has fallen so far. Do better!

Hunt’s speech was graceful. As a non Tory I appreciated it. Braverman’s ‘sorry’ speech was disingenuous and shallow

I think this is a common policy that all parties can unite over including conservatives! We are glad she is gone!

I think we all know what the problem was; a perfect storm of gross stupidity, incompetence and cowardice. Truss has always been as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike.

I think Liz truss was in the loo crying

Liz Truss graceless? I find that hard to believe. Not. Best loss of the night.

Be careful, when a democracy is sick, fascism comes to its bedside, but it is not to inquire about its health. -Albert Camus

The greatest pleasure in seeing the exit of a politician was when the one we called the Mad Monk, Tony Abbott, lost his seat as the racist, ultra-religious right-wing PM of Australia. After that, he turned up as an adviser, promoting his solution to keeping the faragisti placated by sending refugees to Rwanda.

Hasn't she been hanging out with the American right-wing? That'd explain gracelessness ... learning from the 'best'.

She is a Lizgrace! Girl can do the speaking circuit for a few years, ruffle feathers then become a Baroness. What a player. Surprised she got out of bed for the announcement. Grifters gonna grift.

She will turn up in Reform sooner or later. Irrelevance is like death to her.

The dark forces of the English population in Norfolk did for Liz Truss.😂😂😂

Possibly the worst PM we've ever had and let's face it the standard is abysmal so that's saying something.

Not sure how these Tory ‘journalists’ are going to cope with competency in govt.

Suggesting she was graceless in her loss presupposes the existence of grace to start. She acted in character.

To be honest, as somebody else has probably pointed out already, her speech after her election defeat was the best I've ever heard from her.

She's priceless! And by priceless, I mean worth nothing.

People are struggling to make ends meet in a country in a dilapidated state - and they're talking about who's gonna be an a Parliamentary rock band? Good God.

After standing there while the guy who beat her spoke about his father dying prematurely because of NHS resources, to then refuse to give a concession speech was truly classless.

She’s been in all the parties now, wonder if she’ll try reform. Unfortunately she has the last laugh leaving with her security and that pay off for the rest of her life and never achieving anything.

She put £100s of pounds on everyones morgage repayments!

I feel sorry for her children, Cos, Romaine, Rocket and poor little Gem🤷🏻

Investigate, interrogate, incarcerate.

She's just diet trump but the UK has no appetite for it

The lettuce is in the compost

To be fair she probably didn’t know what was going on

I agree with you. The Tories are responsible NF

Since when did lettuces become sentient ? So why expect grace from Truss ?😂😂

I don't recall her sincerely saying I'm sorry to the British people and to her own part🤷‍♀️

When she was foreign secretary she was so rude and arrogant in meetings and press conferences with the so-called "unfriendly nations". The whole idea of diplomacy is to be diplomatic., but she lacked those qualities. Her mini-budget ruined millions of pensioners, mortgage holders and pension funds generally.

She has cost the British economy billions, and she has zero shame.

I laughed so much when they said she had lost ,couldn’t have happened to a better person

I thought she would be used to votes of no confidence....49 days. More cheese gromit.

She can't accept loss, like she can't accept it was her fault!

The most surprising part of this is that anyone could be surprised that a graceless narcissist behaved in a graceless fashion.

Candidates know the result before they go on stage, hence her petulance.

Shes an investor representative. Why would she care about the people?

When God created woman he hadn’t expected Liz Truss to turn up.

Liz Truss told a US audience three years ago that the impact of a no-deal Brexit on Ireland would only "affect a few farmers with turnips in the back of their trucks," As an Irish person, I found that offensive. Not because it was derogatory towards Ireland and the Irish people, but it demonstrated the distain towards Ireland that existed in the Tory party over the past few years. Labour will have a hard battle ahead, but I'm glad the toxic mob that were running the UK for the past 8 years are finally gone.

Hats off to Larry the cat

Some people are bad losers and some are good losers!!

Let's be fair. One term isn't long enough to repair 14 years of damage.

Truss will stand for reform now......her perfect home.

Fancy lizzie lettuce leaving like a limp lollo rosso... Who would have thought it! The woman who literally crashed the economy caused absolute misery to so many and still cannot admit her disastrous policies were to blame! Of all the Tory losses, seeing her go was my personal highlight. Thank you people of Kings Lynn you are all super stars 🎉#toriesgone 👋🏼✌🏼

One of the things that made me proud to be British, was the absolutely stellar conduct of the majority of winners and losers from this election. Chief among these course being the speeches from Sunak and Starmer... recognition, respect and reconciliation - both ways. Like when Labour were in opposition and backed the Conservatives on their approach to Ukraine. Unity and solidarity across party lines for a better country and a better world, is something that all parties, in all democracies, should aspire to.

Reform is not right wing or left wing it is nationalist. It believes the citizens of the UK come first, and the government has to support the wishes of the najotif the British citizens. It seems the British people did not like that one little bit. Strange old world.🎉

Karma never forgets a name

Mind you compared to Trump she's Queen Elizabeth

Starmers majority looks big but it is on extremely shallow ground. Very low vote share. Majorities in "safe seats" slashed to 3 digits in many cases and now he has to clash with reality. He has hidden over the last 4 years from actually saying what he will do but has promised change. But no change indicated by his actions. Now he has to actually do something and the public clearly don't like him so he better get it right straight away as he has no honeymoon period to hade from the voters in.

It’s very clear Truss is very uncomfortable in many public facing social situations that involve spontaneity. She also seems to exhibit a poor empathy response or have much ability to self reflect on her behaviour or hold eye contact.

Needs locking up.

You can tell this is a murdoch title. Clickbait over liz truss for about 5 seconds only coverage and then onto their real agenda. Silly me for being tempted to click.

The most deluded figure ever to feature in British politics.

I have a maths prof friend who is autistic. I have adhd and am probabily autistic too, so am not saying this as kind of pejorative. He says he recognises what he has in common with Truss. I ain’t diagnosing but it would explain a lot, including ‘graceless’ behaviour

"Graceless" is a very kind word to describe her . . . .

Graceless???? Clueless YES! The single most embarrassing Politian????? In Political history. The Final Straw that broke the back of Support from the voters for the Conservatives.

Good she has been kicked out 🤣 Disrespectful individual.

She has the awareness of Lucy Letby.

One big problem with Conservatives in the US, and I guess England, is that they think they are so damn special. The old, you can believe me, because I am always right and never wrong.

Truss is always spacking out. She's like watching Braindead Biden deliver a speech without a teleprompter.

Lost Trust 😂😂😂

So glad pork markets is history.

I'm against any kind of book burning. However, Liz Truss...

Truss has no class, her actions spoke volumes on the type of person she really is. Her atitude shows what baggage she brings to the table.

From lettuce to now cabbage.

Marie Antrussnette

She is possibly a sociopath. It will have had no impact on her plans and as she is wealthy, she will continually strive to get her plans into action

Busy Lizzy got her knickers in a twist....😂

Long, long overdue

No Liz Truss show on Fox News! Britain should also take Harry back (and also take Meghan for good measure).

She still gets 130k per year as a former PM, so no tears please.

She tried to emulate her hero Margaret Thatcher, but she failed miserably. At least Thatcher's exit from politics was graceful.
