Liz Truss explains trickle-down economics.

This is a serious economic analysis and I am not taking the piss. Oh wait. I am taking the piss.

Here is the original sketch (speech) that the actual Liz Truss did about cheese. Decide for yourself which is a better parody:

This might actually make sense if you have read some her comments on restoring the empire but as it stands right now the UK has a smaller land mass than a single Canadian province and almost 70 million people and half of that land mass is a granite boulder. Don't see that working.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Well land is overrated when you have prestige, industry and err...next question.
@Burnley123 I recently read Britannia Unchained which she was involved in and it reads pretty scary if you read between the lines. Because stuff like restoring the UK to a first rate power that dictates global affairs and comments about the decline of the empire not being inevitable is kind of scary stuff.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow She is a libertarian true believer.
@Burnley123 Most Libertarians of the American variety like her are usually anti interventionist at least on paper.


She sounds like them on Economics and on foreign policy like a hard line Tory who wants to restore the empire of old under the Tory party instead of the crown while using their symbols for trappings.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Oh yes. I meant in the economic sense. Obviously, the empire jingoism is just for show anyway. UK foreign policy is an angry chiwawa that thinks it's a lion.
