from the bbc news feed .....

I’ve been getting some reaction from Conservative MPs, after the brief press conference from the prime minister.

One of her supporters - you read that right - said "that was the worst press conference I have seen in a decade and a half."

Another MP, who voted for Truss in the leadership election, said "I had my hands over my eyes" during the speech.

Fans of Little Britain will get his reference: "It was like ‘computer says no."

And it hasn’t taken long for speculation to build that Jeremy Hunt may become a caretaker leader – ‘a Hunt coronation’ says one MP.

"Hunt is well placed to succeed her."

One long-standing critic of hers says "God knows where we will be on Monday when the markets re-open."

This would be hilarious to witness.

IF the UK wasn't in such difficult waters and needed competence at the very least.

As regards the sacked chancellor of the exchequer…


!?!?!?!?

Kwasi read classics and history at Trinity College, Cambridge, and then attended Harvard University on a Kennedy Scholarship. He earned a PhD in economic history from the University of Cambridge in 2000


?!?!?!

Jeremy Hunt, a failure, appointed Chancellor.

Seems like anyone with zero experience can become the Chancellor.

I'm shocked Phillip Schofield didn't get the gig.

He's as 'qualifed' as anyone.

[Treasury chief secretary Chris Philp has been moved
to the Cabinet Office following the sacking
of Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng.

Liz Truss is seeking to get her embattled
fledgling government back on track following
the market turmoil unleashed by the mini-budget.]


Philp replaced by Edward Argar MP amid economic chaos

After Larry and the Fox video there were comments that Larry or the Fox should take charge, they couldn't be any worse
