The Tories lost because they weren't the cure they were the disease,

[dean]

We owe a lot to Liz Truss. She did more to damage the Tory party than any left wing media could.
"We paid a heavy price", he says. No, Kwasi. The British people suffered a heavy price. It doesn't affect you. That's part of the problem.

[luraloon]

Liz is the worst pm ever in the history

[echobay]

Truss. Zero humility. Couldn’t even thank her constituents for their support over the last several years. Devoid of humanity.

[yetiboysw]

The man who made my mortgage unaffordable. He should be in prison!

[mjl]

You have to ask who are the 11, 217 that voted for Liz Truss.They might need some professional help

[Omni-Man]

The fact that this guy seriously thinks he can talk with absolutely any authority what-so-ever is so insane it's annoying.

[dkjbhqt]

Asking the arsonist why the fire started..

[paulc]

Good riddance to Liz Truss. So classless keeping her fellow candidates waiting and then leaving without saying anything.

[ant]

Losing a 20, 000 majority?
That's not a loss - that's a calamity! 😅 😂

[Algolxxxxxx]

It isn't that Truss didn't get enough votes, she got 11, 217 too many.

[ChubbyChecker]

Kwasi has no shame, he should be banished. Please do not have him on TV.

[christophersimpson]

Brilliant to see Brexiteers, Mogg, Truss Johnson and Gove are all history, made today perfect.

[mattinterweb]

How this guy has the nerve to come on in the first place is beyond me.

[mikeyoung]

It couldn't happen to a nicer lettuce

[hiskeplantinga]

Ohh, he has "some degree" in the Tories downfall😂😂😂

[jonathananderson]

Kwasi and truss should be charged with treason

[lastdimestudios]

LT turns and walks off when she lost - yep no Fs given by her. Honestly the true colours of these people, power power power! And all I can say is ‘Get Out’!

[FriendlyTwo]

Brexit killed Tories. This is a lesson for parties that failed to lead the country in the correct direction.

[Juicexlx]

Tories destroyed UK's economy, there's no putting lipstick on that piglet to make it look pretty. Why is Mr. Kwarteng even offered a microphone at this point?
