  • It's also the fact that Sunak basically said this would happen that makes them look doubley incompetent.

    Personally I'm not sure what the issue is with sacking Kwarteng, blaming him and getting the new Chancellor to make the u-turn. Hasn't Truss been in hiding anyway?

    Or maybe it's because they can't find anyone to do the job.

    I think the bigger issue is how much advice Truss and Kwarteng ignored to get this through. Including sacking a treasury advisor who objected. i don't think Truss can just pretend that its all Kwarteng's fault.

  • I mean it's not where I'd choose to start from, but I can't help but feel that the past few years have shown you can just chat shit and deny things ever happened.

    That said I guess you risk fucking off both the normies and the nutters.

  • Are you referring to Sir Tom Scholar? Because he was a bit more than a Treasury adviser, he was the Permanent, i.e. the most senior civil servant in the Treasury.
