    “I don’t think it was particularly funny, I think it’s puerile,” Truss told Irish broadcaster RTÉ

    It can be both.

    Humour is subjective. Her awful performance and insane budget were not subjective.

    Her mini budget wasn't funny either, so I guess it balances out.

    She made it 4.1 Scaramuccis so we should cut her some slack...

    In the long list of “thing Liz Truss is wrong about”, this is one of the biggest.

    “I think the level of understanding of economic ideas in the media and the ability to explain them is very poor indeed,” she added.

    That can be true, but no amount of honest “explaining” would help objectively bad economic policy seem better. I think she was looking for the word “spin”.

    • "Let's go full on right wing, don't hold back, it'll be great for the economy!"
    • Economy crashes hard, fast.
    • "Stupid media didn't understand how great our policy was for the long term," (for the uber rich, in the short term) "and never gave us the chance to see it work" (transfer more, for longer, from poor to rich).
    • Millions and millions of people have their costs spiral even more out of control and have even more desperate hardship than they already had
    • "It's so desperately unfair, they're so mean to me for making me feel bad."

    Well she is correct. Having a non elected PM that compares unfavourably to a lettece. Is definatly not funny. And every MP that supported her accession should be removed ASAP.
