Margolyes on Hunt
Claimed she 'thought she was off air'. lol
I rather assumed she might have gone down the well traveled Jeremy Cunt path when I first saw the headline.
Lot of time for her after watching her Imagine episode with Alan Yentob. Great watch if it's still on iPlayer, proper character.
Edit: yep, still on iPlayer.
She was top quality on Graham Norton too. A proper sex pest by all accounts, but I'll let her off.

The story about her coming across a flasher and giving him a hand job was something else for a mainstream chat shows.
I'd never seen this one before.
I've heard a couple of podcasts where she's been on as the guest and she's always great value.
She's very funny but I read her autobiography recently and I have to say it makes her come across as a bit of a twat.
Same to be said of Daisy May Cooper.
She's a complete and utter twat, there's no denying that. She's just a twat in a very entertaining and refreshing manner.
Supposed to be the Harvey Weinstein of lesbians.
Apparently 100 letters sent to Graham Brady over the weekend
Obviously it's tremendous scenes but another resignation or no-confidence vote has got to result in a General Election, and the way it's going for these fucks, they'll do well to be the Opposition. I can't see them chancing it, they're all about self-preservation.
A general election now, as Ben rightly says, is out of the question, but then so is another 3 month leadership contest charade. The only option they have is to maneuver someone competent into the chair and go from there. How they do that is the million-dollar question.
They would have to find someone competent first, so it can't be an internal promotion.
Jeremy! Jeremy! Jeremy!
If the entire party abandons Liz in a landslide movement, they can do it. If there are still 100 or so right wing headbanger holdouts, then it will be more difficult.
They are a dead government walking either way. Crack out the New Labour playlist. M People, Toploader, D:Ream, fill the dancefloor.
If Hunt becomes PM I'm moving in with Magic.
So Hunt basically scrapped all her plans this morning and now she's sending out Mordaunt to answer questions in the Commons instead of doing it herself?
Atleast the damage is already done, so we get to suffer all the consequences of the tax cuts without any of the incredibly mild benefits. Yay.
She's 'detained on urgent business' this afternoon, probably having a nervous breakdown. Really needs to resign for her own good. The most out of their depth PM/equivalent in any major nation for at least 100 years.
She's locked herself in the bog, hasn't she?
No, as a tribute to the previous Prime Minister, she has locked herself in the fridge.
I've just seen the Q & A segment of Truss' press conference yesterday. I know politicians do this all the time, but the way she answered the questions (wtf r u doing, shouldn't you resign?) with completely unrelated pre-rehearsed bits (I've acted DECISIVELY) was fucking hilarious.
Suicide.
Who is giving her advice? Whoever it is must be intentionally sabotaging her.
Very strange goings on, every question was "where tf is she?" and then she entered just after the questions, sat with her usual comical expression for Hunt's statement then left as if it was the most normal behaviour.
When is the next election? 2024?
What in the fuck has been going on today? I've been in back to back meetings at work all day and my phone was going insane with news updates.
The stable doors have been closed. But the horses are in the field. And the field is on fire.
And the horses are actually people in a horse panto costume.
And they're coming to the end of their mortgage fixed terms.
She looks like she’s been sedated.
In the olden days they didn't have leadership contests, because somebody just naturally 'emerged' as the next leader, so they could easily all just agree to make Sunak or Michael Heseltine leader and have it done in an afternoon. I'm not sure what she is hanging around for. Maybe she thinks she can still deliver the rest of her pro-growth reforms and claim the credit for those, but the wankers behind her would have been reluctant enough before, let alone now, so she might as well let the party look 'decisive'.
I’ve never seen someone at this level so out of their depth. She clearly thinks nothing, never mind knows.
Boris had his faults and they were many and varied, but he atleast took the experts advice (much to Yevs chagrin). This cunt had financial experts screaming on every media outlet before the "mini-budget" telling her what would happen if she pressed ahead and here we are.
I think there's a happy medium of listening to advice and making your own decisions, which the Tories seem incapable of finding.
This is all very odd.
It's not odd, she turned up 2 minutes later.
She was scared of looking thick and sent someone else.
Mordaunt: the PM has a very valid reason that she is not here answering questions.
questions finish
Truss arrives...
"I don't have an answer." might be a valid reason.
What are the odds that after the next election the Conservatives don’t even have enough seats to be the official opposition?
Zero, but it would be hilarious.
I suppose if SNP had a stormer or there was some tactical voting in the South for the Lib Dems, then it's a miniscule possibility.
Funny you should ask...
I'd expect polls to tighten a lot if an election actually was called though.
The actual poll in question:
I'm sure it'll all be fine when she announces what her regulation busting policies are.
I imagine they'll lose even more after Hunt's announcement today. I mean, to most people it's a lot more sane than Kwarteng's but those people aren't voting Tory anyway now. Taking away tax breaks might be the straw that breaks the camel's back with the remaining nutters.
