Absolute burnt toast.
And there is no way back- it is just a matter of when they are scrubbed.
All this talk about some special measures at the end of the month is just nonsense. They haven't got a plan B which is why they have asked for breathing space while they try and think something up.

Two lumps of sugar, PM?

Is that an improvement on every answer being PUTIN, though perhaps she realised that was untenable.
Watching her today confirms the feeling that she is a bit weird.
I was musing about this exact point earlier while driving to Stratford and listening her wooden performance on the van hifi, and I actually identified an advantage of Ms Truss being PM. At least with Truss we no longer get "vaccine, vaccines, roll-out, vaccines" in answer to every question. Yay!
Odds varying between 4/9 - 4/11 Truss to go in 2022.
Sunak 13/8 fav next PM.
Really doesn't matter who the Tories put up - the party has had it at the next election and it seems to me no wipe out would be more deserved.
Since it is being reported that Ms Truss has declined to attend Parliament to answer a direct question, is it conceivable that she is contemplating making an appointment with King Charles to hand in her resignation? At her last meeting Charles was heard to say
Dear oh Dear
Could the Beerpig Snuggers put their talents towards suggesting a suitable greeting this time?

Agreed, but I'm not sure there's any current politician up to the job, and much as I disliked Boris for his ability to dissemble, I do think the Conservatives have brought this situation on themselves (and us) by getting rid of him.
And I don't think Truss has done herself any favours by bailing out of this afternoon's debate, whatever her excuse. She needs to resign PDQ.
Mordaunt says "the PM is not under a desk" - apparently she has something very import to do - all this while her new CotE is about to explain why the economy has tanked since the PM took over. Way beyond fiction - more fantasy.

She is after all the best that the Tories had to offer, so some private additional maths and public speaking tuition towards striving for perfection is important.
