The Energy Companies should be nationalised immediately, with a full audit by the Treasury.

these people need to be held accountable

Liz Truss sitting there knowing she is no longer driving the bus. She didn't make it out the front gate 🤣

[aguywithaview]

Liz Truss looks like a hostage waiting for a friend to pay the ransom, slowly realising she has no friends and the ransom isn't going to be paid.

[jackoniel]

The arrogance and ignorance of Truss has shown she is way way way out of her depth she should resign immediately.

[lyxnick]

Truss just sat there like a dummy, it's crazy

[jalapenogorilla]

Imagine if insider trading was punishable in parliament

[robbiethepict]

Her blinking is a distress signal. Three short blinks followed by three long blinks then three short blinks.

[markbrown]

3 days and he’s an economist. God help us.

[nitrofar]

What is going on with liz blinking, looks completely out of her head.

[gohumberto]

Prime Minister Liz Truss, told to sit there quietly and don't touch anything, by her new boss, as he tries to fix the catastrophe of her first few weeks "in charge".

[richardlock]

I think people forget how bad he was in government roles in the past

[barking_mad]

Truss looks completely spaced out. Is this part of the reason she didn't show up initially?

[ukulelelab]

PM turned up 1 hour late with a deranged smirk from start to finish and nothing to say. That will re-assure the markets. Perhaps she was still pissed from some other hedge fund champagne party she prioritises to attend

[kevink]

Why is Liz Truss blinking so much? Is she trying to communicate in Morse Code?

[dawn]

Why is she still sitting there. She should be gone especially after what her recent wreckless actions have cost me. A general election please!

[Jane-msky]

The government is full responsibility for miserable daily life the majority British people suffer. This government needs to abolish or demolish or whatever.

[Fortizar]

liz looks off her face on something here ...

[singlendhot]

Truss threw Kwasi under the bus and so Hunt returned the favour!

[eXtremeStreamers]

He did nothing other than to undo what truss screwed up he hasn't said or done anything to help.
