Liz Truss and a car crash

The photo-op with her Russian-style garb was oh so predictable, and as for her stern face!

At the press conference

The Russian Foreign Minister says talks with Liz Truss were like 'talking to a deaf person who listens but cannot hear.'

We are a global laughing stock. There's no competence in Johnson's Cabinet.

And she obviously thinks she's wonderful and going to be a future PM. Fat chance, I hope.

A Foreign Minister who is not too hot at geography and she has aspirations for No 10. Where will it end?

shakes head

I despair.

So embarrassing

Truss thought she could look like a stateswoman & reprise her pound shop Thatcher impersonation to impress the base back home. She got humiliated. It’s the arrogance of thinking that gangsters like Lavrov & Putin wouldn’t know exactly what she was playing at that’s most pathetic.

I did wonder what sort of hash she would make of things. Why can't they either find some grown ups or at least someone who can research and take advice?

What do we expect when we've had ministers who didn't know that NI voting was on sectarian lines; the significance of Dover regarding imports/exports; and someone who was sacked by Theresa May became Education Secretary!

Channeling her inner Thatcher. Apparently it is unseasonably warm in Moscow. The thought is that she must have been absolutely boiling.

Well, the more I read the worse it gets. If I was Truss I wouldn’t show my face again for months and months.

I thought she was doing a Julie Christie impersonation from Dr Zhivago., Only she wasn't sexy and sultry and didn't wow her man.
As I said the other day a foreign secretary who doesn't know her Geography, doesn't know her Baltics from her Balkans. Though she certainly knows how to do a bal......up.

Be fair , she's only the second worst Foreign Secretary we've ever had.

So embarrassed to be British lately - with a clown for PM and a stupid foreign Secretary, we must be a complete laughing stock to the rest of the world.

Oh dear.........................

I'm lost for words!!!!

? varian.

Too true and so sad.

Embarrassing neither should try, all they’d want is to ‘ramp up’ the situation while everyone one else is trying to keep calm.

This is what happens when a party gets rid of anyone who might potentially be a threat to the PM. Even though we now have a situation where second rate politicians like her are actually threatening their leader.

Cringeworthy. I wonder if she took some cheddar as a gift.

Why is Johnson talking as if he’s coordinating the whole of Europes response to this?

What an idiot.
I remember when I thought that Jacquie Smith was the worst ever Foreign Secretary.
Oh for those days…

Meanwhile, on a more serious note; spoon botherer Uri Geller is urging us all to send positive vibes to Putin in order to ward off WW3.

The idea is for us all to ‘tickle a sickle’ (yes, really) at several auspicious times of day, including 11.11am

Here you go

I have just seen an item on the ITV News on this and their opinion is that her Russian counterpart was being exceptionally misogynistic and rude.

He is renowned for it, so all the more reason for Truss to have been totally prepared and on top of her brief. Instead she showed herself up for the ignoramus she is.

Other politicians and diplomats from the USA under Obama knew what he was like and so although he was rude they showed that they knew what they were talking about, and got what they wanted.
