The holidays of Johnson and the shame of Truss

 This from the Guardian.

The man is shameless.

And then there’s the story of Liz Truss. When the Conservative prime minister announced her resignation, no matter what one’s politics are, it would be understandable that people would feel sorry for her. The woman had been politically humiliated.

When she stood at the podium in Downing Street yesterday and spoke about her days in 10 Downing Street she never once apologised, never a hint of remorse, instead she spoke of the great things she did.

At one stage she quoted Seneca, unfortunately she stumbled over the man’s name.

Ms Truss gave the impression she had no shame whatsoever.

To think that ‘these people’ misgoverned and mismanaged Ireland for centuries.
