Re: Liz Truss [Prime Minister]
Wonder if they're smart enough/ can be bothered to wriggle out of this mess, a coronation or blunder woman staying in charge of the party but giving up being pm, they've done both before

Re: Liz Truss [Prime Minister]
The BBC are saying they understand she requested the meeting.

The british public on a whole seems to be apathetic to the state of politics, preferring instead to focus on 'here's three new things you never knew you could do on your iphone' , 'Mrs. Miggins five minute kitchen clean that will make it sparkle' & 'healthcare assistant from dumfries transforms kitchen using B&M buys'

This makes the point that the country better than bumbles on without government. Business does business, doctors treat patients; buses and trains run (subject to strikes), electricity flow, water flows, etc.
With government in place, you'd be lucky to get a doctor appointment; electricity is at risk; sewage gets into our rivers; train drivers go on strike, etc.
It wasn't much different at various times, with various governments, in the past.

Re: Liz Truss [Prime Minister]
I've been against the talk of an election after another leader change because that's not how this country works and it's also dangerous to make it a precedent, bad PMs would be kept because the MPs don't want an election, but this is such a mess I can't see how the Tories can morally justify not holding one.
