It sounds like a lot of Conservative Party members already want Truss to be replaced.

For myself, I think that's a bad idea on the grounds that if you choose a leader, then you have to give them a bit of time. Hopefully, she's learned a lesson and will be more prudent in future. To make a massive change, you need a mandate and she didn't have one from the country via an election. She has to earn people's trust. She hasn't done yet.

Jeepers. I feel like a pigeon watching Wimbledon. Now the government claims the mantle of compassionate conservatism. More the US equivalent of Dubya's position than Paul Ryan's, in theory at least.

Does anyone know what Truss wants any more?

I hoped she'd mostly do continuity before an election. I got the impression that most people wanted more of what Boris was doing but without the drama. So not much change.

But she's swung one way and then the other, alienating her foes and her fans in turn.

I don't think she's turning out to be a skillful politician. It looks like she climbed to the top of the ladder before she was ready and could have used more experience.
