#2 “Nobody has a route plan. It’s all sort of hand-to-hand fighting on a day-to-day basis,” he told the BBC on Thursday.

Sort of like right here I suppose.

#6 Boris will be back. Then Trump will be back. Maybe this time all the leftists will actually move to Canada, Australia and Costa Del Sol.

#8 The way Breitbart tells it, there was a big fight about immigration and Truss was on the wrong side.

PM Truss Had 90-Minute ‘Shouting Match’ with Ex-Home Secretary over Immigration Betrayal

Braverman, who along with Kemi Badenoch — now Trade Secretary — was seen as the “right-wing” candidate by grassroots conservatives during the race to replace Boris Johnson, as a Brexit supporter who put a focus on tackling illegal migration, reducing legal mass migration, and taking on social justice leftists in British institutions over the course of her leadership campaign.

I'm no expert on UK politics but it would seem to me they need another general election. Dunno if Bojo is the guy though. Wasn't he soft on immigration as well?

#9 Breibart also takes a dim view of Jeremy Hunt, calling him an anti-BREXIT lockdown authoritarian.

#14 I do remember all the celebrating of the first British cabinet with no white men.

I guess you can govern for about a month and a half without us.

Also, a government whose only qualifications are skin color and chromosomes is doomed to failure. I'm just a bit surprised that it happened so quickly.

#15 Her lifetime pension for 45 days service starts now and is 114,000 pounds a year I just read. Sweet deal if accurate!

#16 The Lettuce Won!!!

Will Liz Truss still be Prime Minister within the 10 day shelf-life of a head of lettuce?

#17 Sigh. It's only in the past week or two that I've stopped thinking "eats, shoots, and leaves" every time I see her name.
