Oh my goodness – she doesn’t know what she’s talking about & she’s Chief Sec to Treasury https://t.co/mTdoo3Vooa

Of the new crop of ludicrous Tory chancers let loose on our airwaves Trott really is emerging as a special kind of disaster zone. Jawdropping https://t.co/8YtpFV5tjl

This is excruciating. On #PM Evan Davis is politely but firmly telling the Chief Secretary to the Treasury how to do sums.

In which Laura Trott seems not to realise that @EvanHD is in fact an economist. https://t.co/lZxoRZSmye

That Evan Davis interview with Laura Trott was mind blowing. How can the Treasury chief secretary be that clueless and financially illiterate?

The shocking performance led Chris Dillow to this conclusion.
The PM thinks Trott is the best person to be Chief Secretary: she'd not have the job otherwise. This tells us either that he has no judgment, or that other Tory MPs are barely sentient. https://t.co/rekkRqFEbw
