Twitter extract

I’ve been following BBC News live online this morning, and it sounds like something might happen imminently.

Also seen on Twitter yesterday, from Phil Harrison:

I don't think Starmer quite knows what to with Truss at #PMQs.
It's like trying to explain trigonometry to a labrador. She just stands there, gazing uncomprehendingly at him.

Oh that’s interesting, last night on Newsnight it was reported that a Tory mp said that she has to go tomorrow. I’m sure he didn’t mean it literally.

I also think we were here so often with Johnson and nothing happened because of the spineless ness of Tory MPs

Yes I saw that???

My bet is that the mini-budget will be withdrawn. Mind you that will ruin her politically - so perhaps that guess is wrong.

Trigonometry to a labrador is making me laugh. Possibly as I am gazing at my lab puppy who has yet to understand his tail is part of his body.

Galaxy, I agree- the trigonometry image made me smile, too. It makes you wonder about her IQ, doesn't it? I do feel that I have a better grasp of politics/ economics than she does. She is an Oxbridge graduate, and my A level results would never have achieved a Cambridge place - unless there's a FE college there.

I’m sure that I heard that some Professor or other has called for an IQ test for MPs. It was in one of the papers yesterday. I’ve tried to find it but can’t

Congratulations on your new pup Galaxy. I’m very envious ?

She read PPE at Oxford. I’m stunned

Aw Galaxy a new labrador puppy - how lovely. We have a labrador (now nearly 12 years old and ailing) and for such intelligent dogs they can be really thick at times! Likening Truss to a labrador is spot on ?

I think they do a lot of PP at Oxford but not much E....

As a student of the 90’s, perhaps she did far too much of the latter.

To be fair Curly hes only 10 weeks old, I wasnt doing much critical thinking at that age .
I did hope for better in a PM but am used to being disappointed!

She has to just go. General election asap please!

I object.

Some labradors are very intelligent.

Look away if you’re eating lunch, or about to. Calm and measured assessment of the mood in the Commons from a Tory MP: “we are being offered the choice of a shit sandwich… Or a shit sandwich with extra shit.”

Could you put it on another thread please?

It's a bit disappointing to find that new posts on this thread are about a puppy, however gorgeous it might be,.

I cant put it anywhere to be fair , my phone is not playing ball.

Sorry ! ?

I take the current situation extremely seriously.
