The idea that recent events have been a set-up to 'show who is really in charge' cannot be completely dismissed.Is that a euphemism for "the most ill-conceived and economically ignorant action in the history of the British parliament". All those years of waiting to put their idiotic economic ideas into action only to be shown by the world that they really hadn't a clue
In reality, if Tory MP's had backed Truss/Kwarteng and hadn't soiled their pants (wonder why they did?) then no-one would be commenting on the mini-budget now. No-one would have been breathlessly shouting on a minute-by-minute basis about the 'pound in freefall'.
Anyway, the pantomime is over, welcome to a few more years of completely unnecessary, ideologically driven austerity.
