Liz Truss getting lost in a small room works even better with a One Man and His Dog overdub
Liz Truss has now launched her bid to be the leader of the Conservative Party, and therefore the PM, with the slogan ‘Trusted to deliver’.
The @trussliz launch. “Trusted to deliver.”
One of the more intriguing aspects of all this is how keen everyone is to boast about their track record of “delivery”, despite them having been in government for twelve years and absolutely everyone thinks the country’s on its knees. pic.twitter.com/ijRJhpGpyp

Unfortunately for anyone waiting for a delivery from Ms. Truss, they’re going to have to rely on her being able to find her way out of a small room with one entrance – and all bets are off.

Tweeters absolutely roasted her for the error, but one funny response went the extra mile.
The multitalented guitar teacher and podcaster Jason Read – @jasemonkey – gave the embarrassing clip the perfect audio treatment, and it works so much better than we could have predicted.

Perhaps Thérèse Coffey can be persuaded to whistle and shout “Come by!” after every hustings.
These enthusiastic responses are just what the funny post deserved.

It isn’t Jason’s first contribution to the Tory leadership race discourse. Here’s ‘the Westminster Derby’, expertly created in collaboration with Dan March – @TheDanMarch.
