Comments by "Curious Crow" (@CuriousCrow-mp4cx) on "liz truss and oxbridge proposals..." video.
He's not being merely rude. He's being carefully critical of a bad idea. And Liz Truss only cares about the UK as a rich woman cares about her Chanel handbag - it's an accessory for her ego. It's brand for her, rather than a vocation. It's aspirational, but not committed. Her true committment is to her own success. Even in her own mind she's not down with the travellers in 3rd class. She wants to be in 1st class, never mind the boat is sinking. She is a symptom of our malaise. She is not a deeply serious person, because she's not even interested enough to be serious about real leadership. She just bossed people around, and alienated everyone who was there to assist her. She wasn't interested enough to understand people's motivations to get them onside. Or to manage them properly. Whatever potential she had was wasted because she didn't do the real work to be ready to lead anyone, never mind the country. She thought she didn't need it. Just like the Conservative Party was cleansed of anybody who could think analytically to pursue the ambitions of Plutocrats before the needs of the country. That's why Truss was even thought as being credible. Nobody was thinking, as the lunatics were running the asylum. Truss got her chance and blew it. And the Tory party is on its way to oblivion. One Nation politics means bringing everyone with you. Not economic and political apartheid, and ego trips. You know when we're in trouble, when shallow people like Truss even get a sniff of power.
