I just can't see how it does them any more good. MPs could possibly point to the fact it was members who elected her, but they all flocked to support her when it was obvious she'd win!

Only way out with some kind of respect is she ends up some kind of puppet, held up by...Jeremy Hunt by the looks of it!

Can she only learn four stock phrases at a time?

National Interest, Economic Stability, Energy Bills, Growth.

It's all stock phrases, including Putin's appalling war in Ukraine.

Dreadful performance. Unable to answer any questions

She sounds very robotic when you listen to her on the radio.

She is absolutely abysmal.

She is totally done for. She has no credibility left.

I’d imagine if she does go it’ll be because they’ve got a successor lined up without a contest. Would Rishi take it I wonder?

She truly is stupid isn't she.

Chancellor is the most important appointment she can make and to sack them after a month says she's got extremely poor judgment and isn't fit to lead the country. And a lack of control of her party if the Chancellor brought this budget against her wishes.

But everyone knows it's her policy so she's just avoiding responsibility for it. And she's made an enemy who I'm sure won't be shy in taking her down.

This needs a General Election desperately. The country can’t carry on like this and needs to choose the direction it wants to take in these precarious times.

How long should Labour wait for the Tories to kick her out before bringing a vote of no confidence to the house? There’s got to be half a chance they’ll win.

My concern is that neither side knows what they are doing. Sir Steer seems very grey. Rachel Reeves/ Jess Phillips/ Milliband would be more likely to maintain stability. As for the current govt. this one has no presence in having Liz Truss. She is well out of her depth as demonstrated by her body language this afternoon.

Labour’s biggest ally is The Conservative Party.

Starmer seems very grey? What exactly do you mean by this?

If you mean dull or boring then grey sounds pretty good right now compared to the utter chaos of the last 3 years.

And Labour aren't perfect but they do know what they're doing, they've announced plenty of good policies recently.

I think Labour would be far more competent, and that’s all it needs to demonstrate. To suggest they are just as clueless is baffling

Seen an uptick of this recently, I’m guessing mostly cope from people who voted in the current clown show.

A colleague told me today an election would be pointless because both parties are just as bad. Sorry, they’re just not. Starmer just as bad a leader as the Criminal Clown and Truss?

I still don’t like him but he is infinitely more competent than Truss or any of those clowns.

Fair play. Have you previously voted Tory or another party?

I'd be interested to hear what the other Tories on here make of the current situation, they've gone very quiet...

I'm not holding out too much hope. My mum came round one day during one of the leadership debates and said she thought Truss would make a really good PM. Presumably because the Daily Mail told her so.

I think her and my dad will just vote for whoever the Mail tells them to, which presumably will not be Starmer.

Blair turned me Tory for one election. Since then I’ve been politically homeless as politics has become more polarised. As for the nobody could do better bollocks that is pure desperation
