It’s not funny… it’s HILARIOUS!

I felt a little bit sorry for her before I watched the video…and…hearing her say “It’s the economy, stupid” and then the banner…it’s a masterpiece. I can’t stop watching it 😁

And she’s wearing lettuce green!

It’s like watching an old slapstick pie-to-the-face routine, except the surprise is genuine. Truly, it’s majestic.

I’ve learned how powerful the unelected bureaucracy is. You have to win in November … you have to dismantle the leftist state … they are devious, they are ruthless and they are out to get you.

Those are called voters.

pretty sure… uhm. do sheep eat lettuce?

Cows? maybe? or perhaps horses?

Well, it also included bankers and other financial types, economists and captains if industries, classic leftist material and bureaucracy according to truss, who were all hearing the economic equivalent of “terrain beep boop pull up” from their instruments and started yelling for somebody to do something.

She makes like a lettuce and leaves

Gsus4 OP ,

It was all she had eyes berg for.

CanadaPlus ,

They suppressed free speech… by speaking.

I don’t really get the joke, though. Lettuce?

Gsus4 OP , (edited )

There was a bet at the time she came into office that she would last less than an iceberg lettuce because of her outrageous policy proposals. She lasted 45 days before the pension funds collapsed and she was replaced, meanwhile, the lettuce persevered in its side dish career.

CanadaPlus ,

Hahaha!

The real joke is in the comments. That’s amazing.

Hazzia ,

There was a livestream of the lettuce and everything. It was great.

To paraphrase a popular English football (soccer) chant:

🎶 It’s happened again. It’s happened again. Liz Truss’ lettuce, it’s happened again! 🎶

And her without a parliamentary seat now too. Poor think will be Romaine aimlessly around not knowing what to do with herself.

Gsus4 OP , (edited )

She’ll probably stay in the Fringe all year.

Butterhead still will look silly

Endive it will. It’s as if her ice bergled the rest of her face.

“I won’t stand for it. Would we see the same reaction if the activists were far-right?”

Not at all, Liz, not at all. The far-right would use violence

Whoever is recording that really needs to clean the lens.

Numenor ,

They can never laugh it off, that’s all they need to do, but they don’t have the capacity to laugh at themselves.

pastermil ,

Which is ironic, considering that they’re British.

“they are suppressing my free speech” says woman invited to be on stage in front of a crowd of people and say anything she wants.
