She is insane. I can't believe anyone would LAUGH as they say they tried to abolish the Equalities act. What kind of monster actively tries to take away people's protections against unfair treatment and laughs about it in public! Yes, people with disabilities should be treated fairly, women should get equal pay to men, and women shouldn't be discriminated against and fired because they're pregnant! The irony is, it's the Liz Truss fan base saying "We need to have more children!" but then try to take away the protections that encourage women to have more children. Absolutely insane. As for Iain Dale, well he's always been repugnant - Who in their right mind a attacks and tackles a pensioner to the ground for expressing the free speech Iain claims to hold so dear.

After watching this and watching some of her earlier political rallies on youtube, I can't help but think that a lot of what she says and does comes from having a lifelong 'chip on her shoulder' and deep seated narcissism. Please don't think I mean that in a patronising or misogynistic way, I might be wrong of course, but when she discusses wanting to change the world, relationship with her parents, wanting to disrupt convention, wanting to reestablish conservative ideology yet seeing herself as outside the establishment, complete lack of accountability, it's almost as though she's needing to convince herself of her own self-perception. A sort of self-inflicted paranoia. I don't know, that's just what came across to me.

@no_humbug1535 Месяц назад

This was more of a therapy session than a searching interview, Ian. What brought Liz Truss down was not her philosophy of growth but her plan of unfunded tax cuts, to which the markets and the BOE naturally reacted. But her philosphy of growth too is flawed. The current most acute threat to growh is increasing income inequality. You can put more money into the pockets of the businesses but they are not going to invest it if they do not have the demand for their products and services. Quite obviously, the Tory's levelling-up policy did not get a buy-in from Truss.

@TheWatcher-ux2jf Месяц назад
