Queen Elizabeth's final official act was to ask Liz Truss to form a Government. Some of the Governed would like to
withdraw their consent. "[
Boris Johnson is] replaced by a climate-wrecking, handout-refusing, redistribution-opposing, Brexit ideologue PM in Liz Truss. Buckle up, it's going to be a rough ride." If this is the
environmentalist wacko version of a "rough ride," sign me up. "Tax cuts for the rich. No attempt at wealth redistribution. Renewed fracking. More oil and gas drilling." What's your alternative, punishing productive people for being productive, and hoping Vladimir Putin or whoever might succeed him will sell that oil and gas more cheaply?
If you're Jeremy Corbyn, perhaps you party like it's 1947:
"The first act of Liz Truss' premiership should be taking immediate action to tackle the cost of living crisis that is pushing millions into poverty," he said. "This must be a wealth tax and bringing energy companies, water, mail and rail into public ownership."
Corbyn also called for a commitment to give workers a raise in the country, stop the push to privatize the National Health Service, and end the "appalling treatment of refugees fleeing war."
No. Just say no.
