She's awkward, her voice is annoying, she does not speak well, she's got a weird suggestive BDSM necklace, she's likely a disaster
On the other hand, the necklace says she really doesn't give a fuck. That may just save her. She will never be liked in the Boris way, but she *might* actually get stuff done
Have they though? Perhaps they might bring back Boris as the Messiah right before a general election. He'd be more popular doing that than if he stayed on.
Sunak should be pleased with that. Lost with honour.
Puts him in a strong position if Truss fucks it tbh. That was not an especially convincing win.
Yep. He should stick around now rather than piss off to CA. He has a great chance to the 'I bloody told you all so' candidate in a year.
I wonder if this puts him in the prince-in-exile role that would let him undermine her for months before sinking the knife in. He clearly hates her and the parliamentary party don’t like her either.
Let's all "deliver" together. Truss is so delivery-committed that she's even going to "deliver a plan"! She has zero care for the meaning of what she says. Reminiscent of Blair in that regard.

Until about 10 or 15 years ago the Tories always won the female vote at general elections. One thing she may be able to do is turn that around to some extent.
That's kinda close. Just wonder if Sunak had stuck to his guns on competence/realism, he might have squeezed through.
As the campaign went on, he was the only one persuading listeners - problem was votes were cast early in the campaign without actually listening to it. If they had voting after the last hustings, it would have been closer still.
This is a rough(ish) guide to energy costs assuming the October prices take effect
I'm surprised the oven uses less energy per hour than a hob ring. I guess things usually take longer in the oven tho. But if you can fill it with meals you can microwave later that could make savings.
Oven pretty low energy draw once it's up to temperature, I should think (which takes, what, 10 minutes or so?). At that point the thermostat cycles the element on and off as needed, so there are quite some periods when the energy draw is near zero. We've got a new oven in last few weeks as part of kitchen/extension work and it really is almost cool to touch even in use - as with everything else I guess the insulation has got much better. Of course, the thing being cooked is an energy sink too.
Traditional hob is losing energy to the air (or to the pan which loses it to the air) all the time. Induction similar, although without the direct hob to air energy transfer.
You can transfer a lot of stuff done on the hob to a microwave with little effort.
Eg, you can perfectly adequately steam/boil veg/rice with the correct tool. Much more energy efficient.
Risotto in the microwave is dead easy and quick.
What kind of witchcraft is this? Risotto isn't meant to be quick. It's meant to be a labour of love.
Risotto in the microwave has two huge advantages - it's quick so I can cook a healthy and tasty family meal from scratch in 40 minutes after getting home from work. But more importantly, it really triggers precious foodie types.
You don't need a microwave
This is an absolutely magnificent risotto recipe which takes about 30 minutes
But follow the tips in the comments and amp up the flavour: add garlic and cracked black pepper at the start, chuck in a glass of white wine early on, replace spinach with cavolo nero or rocket, grate some parmesan at the end
I also add dashi powder in my fish stock
Honestly, it's fabulous. I did an enormous amount of cooking during lockdown, like so many of us, and this is the single best recipe I discovered, partly because it is so delish, but also coz it's so easy (but you do need to add those flavours)
‘grate some parmesan at the end’
Lol
I was so chastened by the harsh PB critique of my pre-grated Parmesan habit, I went and bought a grater
True story
I actually quite enjoy the grating rigmarole now, and do it with a certain Italian flourish, like I am head waiter at the Gritti Palace
As a man ages, he must take his furtive pleasures where he can
You can tell a man is single if he can grate a big block of cheese in under 10 seconds.
I reckon you can grate a big block of parmesan under 2 seconds.
I was watching a cookery youtube video a while back and the chef put the box grater flat on the surface (open end away from him) then started grating by just pushing the cheese against it. Half the effort and twice as quick.
I guess a similar principle to below. Probably the oldest thing in my kitchen (apart from me) and still works a treat.
If you - or any PB-er - can give me a quick easy way to peel and slice/crush garlic I will fiercely support Scottish independence til the end of time. None of the gimmicky tricks work, and garlic crushers don't do it properly, and are messy and annoying. Jamie Oliver says prepping garlic is his least favourite task, and reminds him of nightmare hours doing it as a trainee chef at the River Cafe
Never used it till about six months ago when the wife signed us up to HelloFresh. HelloFresh use garlic in everything and it's been amazing to use. Peels the cloves in a plastic sleeve (just roll it) and then rub the clove against the plate. It does always leave a bit 'ungrated' at the end (unless you want to grate your fingers) but I must admit it was a great buy.
Also, we've got the same old grater that TUD recommends and that still works a treat too.
So the same people who didn't like Truss yesterday, didn't like her speech today.
It was awkward but so is she, but she's also been elected to do the job as she has the right proposals to do it well. And Starmer doesn't exactly set the bar high there either.
If the Party or Country wanted a smooth public showman they could have kept Boris.
If Truss honours her promises and abolishes the NI surcharge that Rishi introduced then she'll have done what she promised and deserved the job for that alone. If she backtracks on that, then let her lose the next election.
I’m not going to criticize Truss for a dull speech . In the great scheme of things what’s important is what she delivers which I expect to be two years of division and othering supported by an arse licking right wing press .
Interesting that 81,000 votes is 47% of 172k eligible members announced by Sir Graham Brady - so would not have met the threshold the Government sets in law for for union ballots… https://twitter.com/faisalislam/status/1566754768244117510
So the next general election will pit a comprehensive educated Tory leader against a privately educated Labour leader for the first time since 2001 and we do get our first PM ever fully educated at a Comprehensive.
Winchester still has not produced a PM since Henry Addison in the early 19th century
While Mr. Roberts' 251 tip on Sunak didn't come off directly it made a great trading bet. I buggered things up a little late on but did finish well ahead, based entirely on that great bet suggestion.

Chopping or grating or smashing garlic in the most enjoyable way is one thing. Food prep should be fun. I might buy one of those plates. Let 100 methods bloom.
But peeling the cloves using anything other than a sharp knife is poncing about.....
One interesting takeaway from this is a rare opportunity to find out how many Tory Party members there are. In 2018 it was 124,000. Recent, supposedly informed, newspaper reports were saying 180,000 - 200,000. Sir GB today says it is just over 160,000.

Thanks!
The Tory Party has just delivered to us the worst prime minister in several centuries, who will lead us all to catastrophic poverty by November, but on the other hand I've learned some new things about prepping garlic, so it's swings and roundabouts
So the next general election will pit a comprehensive educated Tory leader against a privately educated Labour leader for the first time since 2001 and we do get our first PM ever fully educated at a Comprehensive.
Winchester still has not produced a PM since Henry Addison in the early 19th century

I really worry that Truss will ruin the prospects of us Comprehensive schooled folk forever.
In other news, another 48 KRABs for the Polish Army. Battle-tested in Ukraine, self-propelled tracked howitzers will be Warsaw's backbone of artillery. Teamed up with Korean K9 and HIMARS, Poland will have one of the best artilleries in the world.

I don't care.
That tax rise has to go. If that tax rise goes and Labour wins the next election, so be it.
If she reverses that tax rise AND does whatever else is required to win the next election then all the better.
If that tax rise stays, then I want the Tories to lose the next election anyway.
That's kinda close. Just wonder if Sunak had stuck to his guns on competence/realism, he might have squeezed through.
My prediction was 60-40 - I did think the Sunak boosters who said he still had a chance were not totally deluded. 57-43 is very much a "Well, I suppose so" endorsement.

Useful marker going forward.
172,437 is the total membership if I heard correctly.
"Based on her record as foreign secretary, diplomats and analysts in London and Washington said, relations could get bumpier with the United States and, even more so, with Europe."
I hope so. She’d be entitled to nine months maternity leave. She and her husband get a lovely addition, and someone competent can run the government for nine months.
Starmer: “there can be no justification for not freezing energy prices and imposing a windfall tax on producers”.
Other than it will break the market mechanism and lead to rationing, and disincentivise investment in boosting supply.

Truss wins 57% to 43% for Sunak so a clear win but a bit closer than expected, in fact the closest membership vote of any Tory leadership contest since Tory members got a vote after the 1997 general election
And how does turnout compare?
82% is LOWER than the normal General Election turnout for many Blue Wall seats round where I live. Only the Tory leadership election is organised around allowing ample time and opportunity for the postal votes you'd expect a significantly elderly electorate to prefer.

The PM just announced it!
On the other hand, the necklace says she really doesn't give a fuck. That may just save her. She will never be liked in the Boris way, but she *might* actually get stuff done
Truss had the right wing press on her side and the Sunak betrayed Bozo mantra and didn’t even manage to get over 60% of the membership vote .
Deliver! Deliver! What a f***ing moron... She's probably nervous about meeting who she's got to meet this afternoon...
Interesting times ahead but in the end it is her col announcements this week that really matter

We

must now work together to address the challenges facing our country. Tackling the cost of living, delivering for those in need & managing the public finances responsibly. I look forward to supporting the government in that task.
