thought Laura did well in the face of such bombastic behaviour from Truss, she managed to put her on the spot a number of times despite being ignored, talked over and patronised. If she had said ‘I as Prime Minister’ one more time, or pointed her finger so rudely again I would have thrown something at the TV. Her answers were weak, that’s not going to reassure the public at all. I wonder how many millions were watching?
Truss looks like she is on the verge of a nervous breakdown; a certain lost tearfulness. Not up to the job; been over-promoted. Gove, interviewed afterwards, looked the better politician and refused to completely endorse her. Dead woman walking.
She was so ardently against leaving the ECC She was so ardently in favour of environmental issues She was so ardently anti-tory (when she was a member of the Lib-Dems),
And so much more like this
Think her believes are firmly now settled into ensuring that she and her ilk make loads of dosh taken from the rest of us!!!!
I switched on at 9am. Didn't realise it started at 8.30am. I too think Gove spoke better. And hate the finger pointing. She doesn't sound very competent.
I would like to have seen her challenge the need for Bank of England intervention, IMF warning, cost of government borrowing all direct result of uncosted borrowing. I thought Gove's comments were interesting.
Agree with all above. This is clearly a woman who has been promoted beyond her abilities. We’ve probably all seen the like during our working lives, and it’s not a pretty sight. The big difference here, of course, is that she’s been promoted to the top job in the country?

I did the same and ended up waiting until it came on iPlayer. I agree about the finger-pointing too - it's so rude!
Thanks, Doodledog. I didn't know it was on iplayer.
Yes, but annoyingly not when still being broadcast so you can choose between seeing it live or from the beginning, which used to be the case, with Andrew Marr. If you wait till it's finished it goes up a little bit later.
Conservative MPs will lose the party whip if they vote against Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng's tax-cutting mini-budget, a senior Tory has said
Conservative Party Chairman Jake Berry told Sky News's Sophy Ridge on Sunday programme it was "nonsense" to claim that the government's tax cuts are helping the richest and said that Liz Truss has an "absolute mandate" from the 2019 election to carry out her new economic policy
