It seems that some ex-prime ministers have no self-awareness and thus no shame.
One such ex is Liz Truss, who with her mate, a certain Kwasi Kwarteng, caused mayhem with their plans for the UK economy. She had to be removed from her post within days by the very same Conservative MPs who made her prime minister in the first place.
Now she is telling us that the entire economy of the Western world is in peril. Not from countries adopting her bold tax-cutting, uncosted and unfunded plan, but from “socialist economic policies”.
