Liz Truss: What do the people of Northfield make of the soon to be Prime Minister? | 5 News

►Liz Truss may have been chosen by Conservative Party members, but it won't be too long before all voters have a say on who runs the country. So what do people make of our next Prime Minister?

Bradley Harris has spent the day in Northfield, one of the most marginal seats in Birmingham. They voted Conservative at the last election, so is Liz Truss the one to keep hold of support there?

I couldn't believe people were that stupid to vote Boris in the first place. Everybody knew what sort of person he was before he was Mayor of London. Absolutely ridiculous.

[zsht]

People whinging that their lives are getting worse, after voting Tory 😅

[lwzfog]

slumps ? slumps from what ? exactly how far down does the scale descend ?

[lauralishes]

I'll be voting whoever has the best chance of unseating the Tories next time. Everything is worse under the Tories, absolutely everything

[richardpearson]

Don't complain if you voted Tory - its your fault!!

[fabiotaurozzi]

Nothing is going to happen we are fucked

[johnscrimgeour]

Well, that didn't take long. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Anyone want to start a new Labor Party that isn’t full of sociopaths? One that champions social change and genuinely looks after the common man? I’ll be waiting outside Parliament or in whichever place they decide to brutally beat and torture me for disrupting the duopoly 🤡

Another one of Klaus Schwab's "Infiltrated cabinets".

At this point I think we're better off with Putin. The Russian people aren't struggling.

[grahamturner]

Pestilence, War, Famine and Truss. 💀💀💀💀

[GWAYGWAY]

It doesn’t matter, they ALL FOLLOW THEIR ORDERS, they have a script to read from Klaus and his bosses. ANY politician now all over the World has to do as they are told or suffer the personal consequences. Look to se what happens to those that do not do as they are told.

Sorry to say, rapid down hill economically now on, from Great Britain to a Run down Britain .
Step toe and son would have run the country better.
God bless the nation with glorious past.

She is a Schwab baby, he (fishy) was a Schwab baby, nothing will change sadly. Buy some more duvets for the winter ahead.

[jacquelinegarvin]

We are all going to hell in a handcart

[christopherwhittaker]

Liz Truss. A thatcher wannabe. She’s absolutely awful.

[techtinkerin]

Voting lib Dems 10 years ago was a bad bad mistake. Should have been labour and avoided this tragic government.

[SeanPG]

Pity we couldn't find a new PM who wasn't an Adulterer.

[Endeva]

It doesn’t matter who is in charge, Truss or Sunak, Tory or Labour, we’re all fucked for a good 3 years at least. Unless your household income is over about £85k, then your fine anyway, have been fine for a while, and don’t give a fuck.

Lots of people going to be out of work and no way benefit will come in time and pay the bills.
