What's really frustrating about Liz Truss is she is too stupid to understand how stupid she is. If she could wrap her head around that, she might just shut up and we'd never have to hear from her again.

Well, if the tories - and Truss particularly - had remained in power until then, I can imagine that a lot of people would be taking extreme measure to get away, so I can see her point.
They’d be sent up as indentured servants, as that would be many people’s only way of survival in perma-austerity. Those who got close to putting away enough company-store credits for the voyage back would find their oxygen bills algorithmically surge-priced upwards.
She should romaine quiet on concepts she doesn't grasp.
Make up for lost time and send her on a rocket into the sun.
surprisingly hard thing to do ,
it turns out, aiming for the Sun without the rocket ultimately orbiting it is not easy at all
We choose these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
The shooting Liz Truss to the sun initiative may be the only way for her to make a contribution to science.
We know, and yet that is the choice regardless.
It suggests an as yet unseen level of dedication to ridding the universe of such a deeply offensive, absolute fucking cretin.
As a wonderful side project, we can see just how many despicable bodies we can physically cram into probably a SpaceX capsule, like a Tokyo subway train carriage. Musk, Trump, Vance, Putin, Netanyahu, Ben-Gvir, Farage, and Milei can start the proceedings. I'm sure we can collectively suggest more.
As long as we get close, we don't have to get the Roche limit. The air will get heated to oven temps regardless
Maybe they meant fire her at The Sun (1 London Bridge Street, London, SE1 9GF).
It's easier if you do it at night.
Also, it can be done, despite it being hard: https://science.nasa.gov/mission/parker-solar-probe/
good point, but still :
Parker will fly more than seven times closer to the Sun than any spacecraft. Over seven years, the spacecraft will complete 24 orbits around the Sun. At its closest approach, the spacecraft will come within about 3.9 million miles (6.2 million kilometers) of the Sun.
so it still orbits it, and won't get closer than 6 MILLION km
Why? To escape her and her policies?
Brexit 2, the UK leaves the Earth altogether to defeat the small boats once and for all
Terraform earth first
Fucking this!!!!
Mars is less habitable than earth, and we're gunning to make earth uninhabitable.
Usually, terraforming includes belching greenhouse gases to melt polar ice caps. Arrival with Charlie Sheen plays on this.
We currently are with fossil fuels.
I thought the goal of terraforming was to make the environment habitable for us?
In the cold and thin atmosphere of mars, greenhouse gases would make it more habitable, on earth reducing them and reversing their effects would be the goal of terra forming.
And on Venus, its atmosphere full of greenhouse gases renders it uninhabitable.
It's all about the sweet spot.
After terraforming Earth, we should begin the process of terraforming Mars by nuking the fuck out of its core to restore its magnetosphere. Doing this properly will take us thousands of years.
She's basically Donald trump with two x chromosomes.
She certainly has extra chromosomes.
Liz Truss, I don't think I can stress, is a strange woman.
Despite getting the top job at the Conservative Party, her father was a left wing Academic, but she basically railed against everything she even considered "left". Pretty much everything that came out of her mouth as a politician has been pretty fucking insane from her front bench career to her running to be the Leader of the Tories.
The reason she remained as long as she did as Prime Minister was because the Queen died. Literally the last thing the Queen did of note was appoint her as Prime Minister at Balmoral (it's believed she knew she was dying and wanted to die at Balmoral because it was her favourite home). Because all politics stopped when the Queen died, she didn't need to do much of note, but the moment the mourning period was over, she took a fucking sledgehammer to the economy.
After this, before and after resigning she has...
- Called the Bank of England "Leftists" (which is fucking hilarious) for reacting badly to her mini budget.
- Blamed Transgender people for a KitKat Heist in Italy (No really).
- Released a book called "Ten Years to Save the West" in which she claimed everyone was out to get her.
- Basically became the Heritage Foundation's voice in Britain.
She's basically a mix of Donald Trump, Javier Milei and the parts of Thatcher that didn't make it to the papers.
sounds like she just volunteered to be sent to Mars
She can live there with Elon. $5 says they kill each other on the way there.
so THAAAATS what happened to the crew of the Hail Mary
If you read the book that's actually the reason why they put them in medical comas. They feared they'd get cabin fever and kill each other on the trip.
Yeah living conditions on Earth would be so vile that we'd go to Mars and leave her behind.
I'm pretty sure she is right. Where else would Brits be safe from her incompetence?
God how I wish to have as much coke as she clearly has.
If brits went to Mars they would just complain about the lack of toast and beer.
The PMs after David Cameron are only in it for the power to feed their own ego and not about governing, especially the Tory PMs. Kier Starmer was not a great Labour PM but he's less egotistical than his Tory counterparts. Andy Burnham appears to be more down to earth but only time will tell.
I see the delusion is progressing.
There's no point trying to make sense of this, she's nuts, and just in a sad depression way, not in a fun entertaining way.
2040 even sounds ridiculous.
IMHO most countries could still accomplish this. There's just no political will for it. Mars is worthless to most people before terraforming, and now we need to terraform Earth first. How can we expect to fix Mars if we can't stop ruining Earth?
There's that, but also, looking at the sort of people pushing hardest for establishing Martian colonies, they are all the sort of folks who would tell you how you can be advancing humanity on another planet, then deduct the cost of your oxygen consumption from your paycheck, if not just cutting off the air supply if you happen to get a little uppity about "muh human rights" when they want you to work 16 hours a day for some dumb idea they had.
Couldn't even beat a lettuce, but still dream of beating on people who already decades ahead of space flight.
The assertion comes in the former British prime minister’s new book “Bank Job,” which was published Monday and claims to explain “how the Bank of England broke the bond market and brought down the government” when her mini-budget in 2022 precipitated market turmoil.
I understand.
Liz Truss infiltrated the Tories while secretly being a revolutionary aiming to develop the UK into Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism, but she made the unfortunate mistake of showing her hand too early by assassinating the queen three days in, which caused the bankers to realize what she was doing and coordinate a crash in a bourgeois conspiracy to oust her from power.
It all checks out.
[This is a bit, obviously]
Whos publishing this trash, didnt her last book just lose a load of money cos they couldn't give it away...
Thing is her right wing shtick is nothing but 'woe is me, nobody gets me' so its even boring to the nutters
The gay illuminati demanded a sacrifice of one head of lettuce from tesco otherwise there would be 7 years of bad wanking.
In a way I'm bummed that I probably won't see any of the space sci-fi come true where everybody sounds British.
Well she shouldn't have killed the queen, and then no one would have ousted her.
Mars?! We wouldn't even have been able to put a man in a tracksuit up a ladder.
I feel somewhat bad for her getting the glass cliff treatment, but then my pity evaporates when she continues putting herself out there, saying the most imbecilic things imaginable. She can't admit that her premiership was completely contrived and desperate on the part of her colleagues, and that she would never have gotten a look in under any other circumstances, and so she has to dream up conspiracies and dark forces to explain how she failed almost instantly. And the delusion simply grows the more her imagined self slams face-first into reality. She would have been the best if we'd just given her a proper chance, ya know?
Paperback edition of a human.
I'm more likely to lob a head of lettuce to the moon than the UK gets to Mars before the end of this century.
She's a fucking loon.
because of elon I associate claims of populating mars with being an epstein lister
Is that the lady who used to "run through fields of wheat? (How naughty!)
She had sick spacial exploration program that was about to reveal to everyone but you made fun of her with that forsaken lettuce and now everyone of is lost it. Congratulations to everyone one of you, ungrateful bastards.
I understand why the rest of the world would want the brits on Mars, but why is Truss advocating for this herself?
