Politics conservatives Liz Truss
Liz Truss thinks Tony Blair is the UK’s worst PM, but not for any reasons you’d expect – 15 favourite reactions
Ahead of her predicted defeat in the South West Norfolk constituency, the blink-and-you-miss-it former PM Liz Truss gave an interview to the local newspaper, Eastern Daily Press.
She repeated her conspiracy theory that her time in Number 10 was brought to an untimely end by Deep State actors, brushed away the controversy surrounding her appearance on a podcast platform launched by right-wing commentator Carl benjamin, who made a rape ‘joke’ about Jess Phillips, and shared her opinion on who has been the UK’s worst PM.

We suspect she’d get some support for the idea that Blair was the worst PM, but probably not for promoting equality, human rights and an alternative to the fiery death of the Earth.
Here’s what Twitter/X thought of her claims.

Is she on bad meds?

Through the looking glass – the one that has fallen out of the frame on the wall. I really can’t help sometimes wondering about substance abuse. https://t.co/ixON8RLZdu

Yeah. Equality Act. Human Rights Act. Climate Change Act. What a wanker.
Seriously though… Someone who cares about Truss should urge her to quit politics. She seems unwell and genuinely disturbed.

Liz Truss goes full-on Trump.
This is why the Conservative Party should be consigned to the history books, not just for a generation but forever. https://t.co/iJLAZEaxB2

Extraordinary that Sunak is so weak he is allowing this extremist to go forward as a Conservative candidate in this election. https://t.co/7WH8YIeO20

No way is this woman ok? Genuinely believe she’s lost her shit. How can anyone find these things bad? Blows me away.
