Good news. Seems the Tories have finally appreciated that their hopes of staying in office have been diminishing every day since Liz Truss, Kwasi Kwarteng &co fucked the economy. The recent local elections proved that, beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Kwasi Kwarteng

Sounds very British.

LOL His parents emigrated from Ghana in the 1960s, specifically with the cunning plan to raise a child who would lead the UK into a partial recession. Impressive planning. Kwasi's "mates" who are hedge fund managers in London call him a "useful idiot" and likely made lots of money betting against the UK economy.
