Liz Truss

Ms Truss is an MP for a constituency in South West Norfolk, that has voted Torie since the 1960s. She stands as the personification of why I left the party.  In her constituency the elections are won at the selection committee level and as such Ms Truss can stand as an MP for a very long time.  

One of her more unattractive features is her ability to blame everything on everyone else. I will admit that I have only met her twice, and that was with a group of Tories supporters (some years ago) long before she became the shortest-tenured Prime Minister.  

As a politician, her most attractive feature is that she's a woman.  Unfortunately, that's the extent of her positive features, and that is evidently not enough.  She grew up in what could charitably be considered an ultra-left-wing household to well-educated parents who thought so much of communism that they briefly moved the Poland...which may explain Ms Truss' own diametrically opposed political views.

For a while now she has been ranting about how she was torpedoed by the Deep State on her prime ministership.  She's absolutely right.  Both the Civil Service and the party realized that she was nuts, and that's telling when you consider that she's in the Conservative Party.  Her replacement Rishi Sunak is a lot smarter and driven by other things than personal aggrandizement, not that it will change the outcome, let's be honest here, the Tories are screwed.

Still, every time I hear Ms Truss open her mouth, or even articles about her, my reaction is visceral, it's like with Trump or Farage, I just don't want to know what they have to say.  I skipped the article or changed the channel.  I know that whatever comes out of her mouth will be a lie!

That's deadly for a politician, but her supporters still seem to love her, and despite the massive slap she got from the Party, she's still running as a conservative member...it tells you everything you need to know about her.  It's not about King and Country, it's about Liz.

Note: Ms Truss is not our MP, our farm is not in her constituency, its close but not in it.  Still a conservative stronghold...

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
