I feel somewhat bad for her getting the glass cliff treatment, but then my pity evaporates when she continues putting herself out there, saying the most imbecilic things imaginable. She can't admit that her premiership was completely contrived and desperate on the part of her colleagues, and that she would never have gotten a look in under any other circumstances, and so she has to dream up conspiracies and dark forces to explain how she failed almost instantly. And the delusion simply grows the more her imagined self slams face-first into reality. She would have been the best if we'd just given her a proper chance, ya know?
Paperback edition of a human.
There's no glass cliff in a country that had Maggie Thatcher in power for a decade half a century ago. Truss was a fucking idiot.
