It takes some brass neck to say British workers need “more graft” when you’ve served in a government that hasn’t done its day job for months.

Not content with thinking nurses in the north are worth less, apparently Liz Truss thinks Brits are all lazy too https://t.co/6USMGb7lRX

Not good for the Red wall?

I have no doubt that Keir Starmer and his team are already preparing for the first prime Minister’s Questions with Liz Truss and I wonder whether the contents of the above tweet from Lisa Nandy might figure in the very first one.

Whenever the party opposite gets a new leader then the other side starts working at ways of undermining him or her and seeking to brand them in a manner that could impact on electoral outcomes..

On the face of it these comments by Truss on British workers look ideal for the Labour Party and my guess is that we will hear a lot about them in the two years before the general election.
