Liz Truss has a long history of being wrong.

It kills me how pearl clutching these folks are when they act like fuckin children half the time.

What's really funny is that she was compared to a lettuce and LOST.

What's also funny is that she didn't have to lose to the lettuce. She chose to lose to the lettuce.

And pension funds not being able to pay its pensioners when the UK economy tanked after short sighted economic changes were forced through by Truss, despite heavy opposition by experts, business leaders, the general public, and her own political party, was also not funny.

Think how the lettuce must have felt.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

That's where you're wrong Liz, it was actually very funny.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Well she's wrong, obviously

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

It wasn’t funny- it was absolutely hilarious! It was the only thing we could laugh about after her horror show tenure in No. 10

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

That’s honestly one of the funniest headlines I’ve seen in a while

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Well, not for her.

But she’s a public figure, she’ll have to learn to deal with people making fun of her.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I bet the lettuce didn't find her very funny either.

Woman who doesn't understand economics reveals that she also doesn't understand comedy.

[–] qaz 3 points 1 year ago

I'm sure "stop mentioning the lettuce" will be as effective as her economic policy.

It wasn’t funny….

It was fucking hilarious

[–] bappity 3 points 1 year ago

yeah well crashing the economy wasn't funny either

[–] BeMoreCareful 3 points 1 year ago

I mean, the lettuce did last longer. I think we should give it it's due.

Just some ink on a page. Would she rather be Charles and have eggs thrown at her in public?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I don't even know what this is about, and I just laughed at that pic and post title.

[–] kilinrax 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah it was definitely the lettuce that was puerile and not your policies.
