The Machiavellian manoeuvering behind the scenes must be off the f*cking charts.

Voodoo dolls of Truss must be selling well in Westminster.

I wonder if the "get your house in order by Friday" was actually aimed at the Government as opposed to the pension funds ???

Pippa Crerar, Guardian :-

"Kwasi Kwarteng will be sacked as chancellor as Liz Truss tries to restore her political authority ahead of a U-turn on parts of her disastrous mini-budget later on Friday, according to sources.

A Downing Street source confirmed to the Guardian the prime minister intended to get Kwarteng to “carry the can” over her climbdown as she sought to calm the markets and the nerves of jittery Tory MPs.

Truss is meeting Kwarteng, previously her closest political ally and co-architect of her plan for growth, for crisis talks in Downing Street after he dashed back overnight from an International Monetary Fund (IMF) meeting in Washington.

Whitehall insiders told the Guardian the pair held different views on how far the government should go in reversing key elements of its plan to steady the markets and placate anxious Conservative MPs."

"Liz Truss has responded to Kwasi Kwarteng’s letter confirming that he was sacked by the prime minister.

Truss said she “deeply respects” the decision he has taken to “put the national interest first” and stand down.

Truss said:As a long-standing friend and colleague, I am deeply sorry to lose you from the Government.

We share the same vision for our country and the same firm conviction to go for growth.

You have been Chancellor in extraordinarily challenging times in the face of severe global headwinds."

 

Severe global headwinds ??? Who writes this pish ? The biggest headwind at the moment is the tornado spinning inside Truss's brain.

The incompetence continues. That letter makes it appear as if he sacked himself.

Yeh what is going on surely number 10 haven't written both letters and forgotten to change the footer, I mean that would be absolutely hysterical levels of incompetence.
