2 scenarios - liz plays it dull and terse, I'm here to deliver not quip.
Or she over compensates as the backbenches roar incessantly and tries to come out swinging.
Whether that confidence is misguided or not, time will tell.

I don't like her ideas at all - but she has some.

Not unlikely that the angle and contributors he would have brought in to cover UK during his tenure might have a particular slant.
It’s a shootout.

It's full throated capitalism.

UK gas producers and electricity generators may make excess profits totaling as much as £170 billion ($199 billion) over the next two years, according to Treasury estimates that lay bare the revenue-raising potential of a windfall tax.
Treasury officials will deliver the assessment to the next prime minister when they take office on Sept. 6, according to a person familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified discussing internal calculations.
It's America or EU social democracy.
See Sunak’s speech, earlier in the year.
Like when people defend the NHS by comparing it to the USA's mad approach, and neglect to consider numerous other countries that have sensible healthcare without fetishising it into a religion.

A UCL chemist should certainly not be sympathetic to the notion of succussation, so good for her if that is so - but chiropractice? (Chiropraxis? Chiropracty?)
German Economy Minister Habeck can imagine parts of the economy will "simply stop producing for the time being."
