- Liz Truss stormed off stage after a banner featuring a lettuce and the words "I crashed the economy" unfurled behind her at an event.
The former prime minister was taking questions from an audience in Suffolk, as part of her book tour on Tuesday evening when campaign group Led By Donkeys carried out the stunt.

Sorry but everyone is missing the really weird thing about this and its not the banner ... It's that there were people had left their homes that day, travelled all the way to the event, all to hear her Liz Truss speak .... how weird is that???!!!
I assume most of the people heard it was the Bank of Englands Fault . I saw a programme somewhere the BoE admitted they caused it by mishandling the Bonds market.
Not that weird
@@douglastodd1947 they did not admit that. Stop talking rubbish
She's a born quitter.
@@michaelshaw9029 Born or grown as she is a lettuce 🥬
She isn't facing jail time for the damage she's done to people's lives.This is the least of consequences
I'm sure Starmer will find a way of jailing his opposition like all authoritarian leaders do.
True, but i wonder what damage the Labour party will do to people's lives as well as the country of course.
Lockdown done more damage.
@@simonlevett4776the last one improved lives immensely but the tories somehow convinced the working classes that Labour were to blame for the collapse of the U.S. housing market
@@boxtradums0073 The one big mistake Labour made was borrowing too much in the period immediately before those events and the fiscal downturn,leaving the public purse with little if anything to fall back on when the fiscal weather turned bad. A lot of people then still remembered the state the economy was left in by the previous Labour incumbency following the Winter of Discontent back in 1979,so that acted against them. However,the big culprits were the "casino" bankers who seemed to get away scot free with their ill-gotten gains while leaving the working,taxpaying public to pick up the tab for all the mess they made.
She has no right to be on a stage
Picking up a whopper of a pay off then her pension without a whiff of shame.
Lock her up!
She makes Boris The Deviant look honest
She does, a scaffold
She had good policies but terrible implementation. She should of communicated her plans more effectively, with a detailed phased strategy supported by independent analysis, the mini-budget might have had a better chance of success. She just dumped it out of no where and everyone's like "Ok........ so hows that going to work without ruining the £££".
Bet the group loved it when she walked on in a lettuce coloured dress
😅🤣😂👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾
Exactly - she really is the Graham Taylor of British politics. He was a turnip. She's a lettuce in a lettuce dress.
Very childish in my view.Liz Trust made bad choices,however she is a good person.She should have stood her ground .
“Storms” off doesn’t seem accurate.. she “walked” off tho.
She did indeed walk off, albeit whilst rather petulantly repeating "that's not funny" as she went.
@@ftumschkIt is pretty funny....
The storm was on her face 😆
@@systemai heeheehee! Perfect! I love that!
@@greatestytcommentator not really. It's about as funny as boomer Facebook memes, which is what it looks like.
It's not even pithy or cutting. It's flat lame.
Lettuce remember her legacy properly
She didn't take it cherry well did she?
Ah Lizz only if Englishmen could have walked off into the sunset they couldnt because they were too busy cleaning up your mess. 0 creditbility just enjoy your ill gotten politian gains could even work for a PR firm
😂😂
These puns are hilarious.
The one the BoE themselves have since taken the blame for?
This is hysterical! And she couldn't have picked a worse colour for her dress!
Hahahaaa 🥬😅😂
😂😂😂😂
It really isn't. Her premiereship was sabotaged by backstabbing conservatives, the bank of england and a gleeful snide mainstream media.
No point, revenge? For what reason? No compassion, move on mate..
@@colinpeck8257 No she got away scot free despite recklessly crashing the economy. She and the disastrous Tories need to be remembered so it doesn't happen again.
I'm a lettuce and I'm growing fed up being associated to Truss. I would have made a much better job of running the country!
What I adore about Truss is she's the gift that keeps on giving. Instead of doing what any normal person would do - book a flight to Venezuela, get plastic surgery and start a new life as a peanut farmer called Sven - she writes a book saying 'It wasn't me!' then runs around saying 'I didn't do nuffink!' She really is adorable.
Lettuce face it, she's a Little Gem.
Honestly I've always found her weirdly attractive
@@johnwhalley8270 I have a mate - can't stand the Tories - who has a habit of falling in love with all of them. I did suggest to him he seek actual help when it came to Dorries. Poor bloke, he's so confused.
😂
Don't buy it then!
Green dress = green lettuce = she is a walking, talking lettuce
Nah, she's pretending to be damned sprout! 🤣🤣🤣
Please keep her away from any position in public office.
Look at the clown we have in power now. And the various clowns we had in power before him. It’s almost like they are all clowns.
@@GargantuanD we should hold all politicians to account. Too many have taken the public for a ride and stuffed their own pockets. Let's see what the latest mob do.
@@johnpyke3210 what I’m saying is, she was no worse than those who have preceded and succeeded her; the establishment just made her the fall guy for their own failures and as an excuse to bring in rishi sunak, who isn’t even British. We live in a clown world.
She wasn’t amused? How about the whole country not being amused by her reckless, cavalier approach to running it ?! 🤦♂️
Explain?
Speaking of amusement, it tickles me that someone who tried to encourage growth with a different approach to the economy can be blamed for the mess we are in when her proposals never get past that stage. It was the 'experts' and money men who caused any drop in wealth by their over reaction to her proposals.
@@apartridge4582tell that to the thousands of people who had their mortgage offers withdrawn, only to be replaced by a new offer at 60-80% higher repayment! 🤡
@@apartridge4582really ??
@@oWarCloudowell she did crash the economy by rushing a budget no one wanted.
Labour had no choice in the financial crisis and the conservatives had no choice with the pandemic.
Liz and kamakazi had a choice, that budget was essentially quitting your job and asking your bank to extend your credit card and mortgage to pay for your living
"The brave Dame Liz Truss simply ran away, away! When lettuce reared its ugly head, she bravely turned her tail and fled! She turned about and gallantly chickened out! She beat a very brave retreat, bravest of the brave Dame Liz Truss!!"
Goated comment 😂 👍
Grave grave Grave liz lettuce 🎶
Lettuce all please just Romaine calm! Liz is such a Little Gem I’m sure she’ll be able to swerve this Iceberg be-Kos she’s not a total Butterhead.
She took a quick endive off that stage!
This is brilliant 😂😂😂@Ianwoods
That Little Gem of a comment is much appreciated😂
@@CharlesWhite-j4f 🤣 good one
@@helenamcauley3135 Yes it is.!!
She’s right, it wasn’t funny, it was utterly hilarious 🤣
Wilted.
And 'distressed'!!
(There is such a thing as a 'distressed lettuce', i think!??)
@@XelaMa Nice try Xela 😋
Concerned about security😂such politicians are more of a threat to the country than a banner
Exactly 😂😂😂😂
She was actually the only one we have had in 20 years (Gordon Brown may have been one, too), that actually gave an f about steering country in the right direction.
She was screwed over by the IMF, the EU, Labour and the majority if the prominent Tories and their donors.
I hope her and Kemi defect to Reform. The Tories, Libs, Greens and Labour are one in the same.
What an absolute joke. Anyone who’d honestly think they’re networking with someone who has absolutely destroyed many people and their lives which was why she was removed not resigned as she made out .
Well done Led by Donkeys. Keep up the great work. Holding truth to power.
God help yhe Labour Party then 😅
@@rambobrown918Ah, the tears of the right keep flowing 😂. A tsunami of weeping
Except it's not power and it's not truth. Other than that, spot on!
Haha if they were holding truth to power they would have supported her for being forced out by the unelected ex banker Sunak, instead they just push the establishment narrative that she "crashed the economy" when it was far worse under Sunak and no one cared then.
@@rambobrown918 the right have truss, Johnson, Dorries, jenkyns, 30p, jenrick, Patel, badenoch, Sunak, may, cleverly and a whole litany of losers on their side lol! Tice, Farage, Widdecombe 😂 a complete circus of clowns😂
She might as well move to the united states and work for the Maga wing 😂
Please, keep the Lettuce!
I would pay for the flight and Johnsons as well.
They don't want here.they have standards.
That is such a good idea, she could do for them what she did for the tories.
WHAT ISNT FUNNY IS THAT SHE TRIPLED MY MORTGAGE AND MILLIONS OF OTHERS
She did? There was me thinking it was the Bank of England that did that. The directors of Led By Donkeys Limited seem to be making plenty of money these days pulling these stunts.
@@bw1376how and how much?!
@@user-zr6ee6lb9m We won't find out because private companies don't have to release this information. If businesses like Led By Donkeys want to lead political or social campaigns they should be more open and honest.
@@bw1376 Yes the bank of England did in response to her ridiculous economic plan of handing out 49 billion pounds to the super wealthy. The response from the Bank of England was a virtual certainty. She absolutely tanked the economy and drove millions into hardship with her batshit crazy economic plans and deserves nothing but scorn and ridicule for it.
And people say labour bad .
Dressed as a lettuce?
Yes, she’s definitely dressed as an iceberg lettuce, happy to confirm that.
😂😂😂😂
A nice dressing to go with the lettuce.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Very droll - I likeit.
Maybe she will give us all a break & never appear in public again!
Nah ! Too much of a narcissist for that 😢
She ain’t bothered still getting paid for life !
Yes, a small pension of £115.000.00 per annum, and they moan about paying the unemployed a couple hundred a week, when there's no work to be found because of tory policies. They also give their mates lordships, who are paid £300+ each time they attend the house of lords.
at this point she must know that people will be leaving Lettuces on her grave for generations to come
The fact that she said, 'That's not funny,' and then walked off the stage... makes it all the funnier.
I'm the sure the secretive backers and donors of Led By Donkeys Limited find it funny.
@@bw1376😂😂 is it the tofu eating deep state. Woooo scary
The sign wasn’t the biggest joke on stage.
Book tour ? Lol who funds this? Who actually gave her a book deal?
It must be those Marxists at the Bank of England
Liz struck an iceberg.
They should have allowed her to continue speaking till she saw it herself.
yeah like the guy was desperate to point it out to her
They couldnt wait, they were too proud of themselves for their childish bullying prank.
The men on stage weren't in on the prank.
The British sense of humour has gone the same way as its freedom of speech laws.
@@aleph8888 Awwww, hard to cope?
I call for every MP to declare their IQ, qualifications/experience, criminal record and sanity rating, as clearly, the quality of person trying to run this country has dropped to extreme lows over the past few decades and the ability of the 'Press' has also dropped to an inability to investigate at all!
fantastic - and with no sense of irony, she was wearing green!!!!
Surprised she managed to make it off the stage considering her past attempts at finding the exit.
😅🤣😂👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾
She had better get used to it - the lettuce is forever going to be associated with Truss.
What's lizz truss being booed of stage for she only had 56 days in office I don't think she's to blame. I think our problems started after ww2 and then with Thatcher then the European union that no one wants to face has destroyed sovereign nations in Europe 30 years ago for some global/euro vision that has no chance of working now considering our history here now.
Its probably a condemnation also of the audience, who were there to hear her speak in support of a convicted felon, who is becoming more unhinged daily, taking the position of the leader of the most powerful nation on the planet. Lettuce in that context would be a very mild insult to attach to her.
Nice to know the British empire had turned into some global euro vision that can't work here now because better of bringing the British empire back but openly modernising that..
And StasiStormer will forever be associated with attacking pensioners.
@@T5ZplayerMaybe those pensioners shouldn’t have set hotels on fire then
Wow, what a powerful leader...... see's a poster and she hasn't even got the balls to defend herself in a vocal manner, just walks off. Weak.
Elderly Joe Biden is stronger 😂
Snowflake
@@Minecrafthunt-r6tJoes enjoying himself on the beach, DonOld on the other hand is doing impressions of Daffy Duck and mithering on about Hannibal lecter, sharks and batteries.
That's not the leader we wanted. Walking away from every situation. Weak mentality.
The fact she made it to Prime Minister is a lasting testimony to how awful the last Tory 'government was, personally the fact she supports Trump shows she has no moral compass'
What moral compass do the directors of Led By Donkeys Limited have? They seem to only run political campaigns and stunts against whoever their secretive donors and financial backers tell them to.
And WEF dictator Starmer is wonderful??
She is right, it's not funny!! It's the bloody truth.
Not funny, absolutely hilarious & totally justified! 👍
Not really. She was rubbish, but only snobs think the economy is crushed
100%
tanks the economy against the advice of her economists, then flounces off when someone mentions it. Class.
Do taxpayers have to pay her way until she drops? 🤔
Who is paying Led By Donkeys Limited?
Yes , even if PM for a day !
Why have the tax payers alliance not complained about this waste ot tax payers money.because they are the very people who champion her.
@@JohnPark-xf2gq She wanted to cut tax. Labour are just continuing to increase it.
@@JohnPark-xf2gq Maybe it's time to start a petition for not paying any more. The country is broke and obviously it doesn't apply to her.
She even dressed like a lettuce 🥬
😂
She should have been put in prison!!!!!
For what? What did she do that was illegal?
@@bw1376 I had to delay getting a mortgage because of her stupid idea of not taxing the rich and paying the lost income from by borrowing more money. She should be in jail for that.
@@bendreczko9054not forgetting the rest who brought in lockdowns.
The funniest part of this is that she is dressed as a lettuce. Her advisors must hate her!
A lettuce would have been a better PM than her.
She _did_ crash the economy though.
BoE did, but temporarily
Nonsense. She was betrayed by the civil service, and incompetent people took that as her crashing the economy. It was a disgrace the way she was treated.
If she had got her plan signed-off in writing by the Bank of England, which seemingly knew thet what she was suggesting would be disastrous, she might have got away with it. Or else she should have immediately sacked the people responsible for withholding the information from her, a PM can't be expected to know the intricate workings of the financial markets. But she did nothing.
@@CharlesWhite-j4f You You may be right. but evidence for this is non existent. Real data. Real documentation. Documented minutes from meetings. Nothing available. There's something not right here. If ever there should be a public inquiry, it should be this.
Stormed off, give me a break. It was a tepid walk
The same walk of shame she used after her constituency results 😢
More like a cowardly slope off!!!
Who cares?! She slithered away stage right.😂
I'd say it was more like she shambled her way off.
Lettuce off the stage! 😄
She's a Little Gem isn’t she!
boom boom 😁😁😁😁😁
Nice 😂.
She didn't want to Romaine so she left without even saying "Sorrel".
She had so few salad arguments?? 😋
@@migproductions4045 Her salad days are over I'm afraid.
...'it raises questions about security...' Yes, that's far more important than that total failure Liz Truss still insisting very publicly, here and in the States, she was right all along, that the Tories ought to revisit her policies, and that she still has a career.
Shes lucky thats all....she should be in jail ..
I don't know what is funnier, the banner they projected behind her or the fact she is on a book tour for a book that sold around 2200 copies in it's first week on sale. 😂
And that was probably a bulk purchase, from her mob in Tufton Street. 🫣
@@BarryAllenMagic😂😂😂
Who the heck would want to buy a book from her?!
@@supersardonic1179 Not even her Ma and Pa by all accounts.
@@BarryAllenMagic either that or 2200 people got caught out without toilet paper
The woman has no sense of humour.
Or shame! Regards
Indeed wasn't funny when she caused interest rates to rocket and millions to still be paying through their necks on mortgages.
When this guy says Brexit debacle. Does he mean the fact we never actually achieved it?
Q: What's the difference between a joke and Liz Truss? A: Jokes may be worth listening to.
What's the difference between a joke and Led By Donkeys?
Jokes are funny.
Yes, so funny to see the directors of Led By Donkeys Limited being paid to run political campaigns and stunts against whoever their secretive donors and financial backers tell them to.
She hardly stormed. She whimpered something about it no being funny and left.
So unprofessional.
Yes, commercial businesses like Led By Donkeys Limited should really try harder with their professional activism.
Led by Donkeys at it again! Love their work.
I wonder if the leftwing group will target Labour?...
me too!
@@daydays12 me too!!!! It was priceless.
Their work? What work do they do?
@@joebloggs9719 Look it up. The sheer amount of research they put in alone is a full time job.
"It will raise questions about security"....I would hope it raises more questions about Truss and Farage! Both are inviting public criticism of them...they have only themelves to blame. Led By Donkeys are so shrewd...way smarter than the people around Truss and Farage could ever cope with.
Liz, lettuce talk about these issues instead of walking away, today was just the tip of the iceberg, she won’t listen tho she just leaves 😂🤣 maybe she’s gonna leave the Tories & join the Greens..
😂😂😂😂
@@Wasssssup-3iceberg. .. lettuce
@@quantisedspace7047 she left the economy in a frosty state 😂

Please, Please, Remind me again, did Lizzy Truss vote leaf or romaine?
I'm a lettuce and I approve this message
The beauty of this is not just the prank, it is how thin-skinned Liz Truss is😂
Also that she seemd to be dressed like the lettuce.
Yeah I feel like if something similar had happened to Boris for instance, he'd have just laughed it off
Given the damage she did, the message could have been a lot blunter in its language
There's more to the story than the "Led by Donkeys" are telling anyone.
Nope, go look. This all the story.
Storms off.....hardly.....but its on Sky, so it must be true.
'Flounced' is more like it! Silly woman.
Sky and the word True now that's a joke.!!
She wanted to reduce taxes for the benefit of the people, but the hedge funds and investment funds didn't like.
People need to get real.
Who's funding Truss' pro-Trump speaking tour?
Who is funding Led By Donkeys Limited?

It's pretty funny Lizzie
True she was shocking !!!!! Shameless person shouldn’t be in politics anymore!!!!!!!!’
By the end of the year most of the country would trust her over Starmer.
Not even Kwasi Karteng would trust her 😂
nah the country is very split atm. The Tories are mostly to blame for most of our problems.
Starmer has 10 more days left to beat Lizz Trough's record.
Ah with a supporter of your prowess, how can the tories lose in 2049?
@@JamosHeatYou haven't seen problems yet!! The WEF Starmer sh*T show has just begun it will get worse.!!

Wait until the country has had a year of labour 😂😂😂😂
The fact that this woman was ever allowed to be Prime minister is beyond me.
she should aply to ,toilets cleaner job ,her and the 200 richest people on uk decided that toilet lady should be pm ...prince andrew for king nigel farage for pm tommy *(patriot man)for vice pm and dear lizzie for toilet cleaner what a team ... u deffvhave my vote
I'm anxious and terribly distressed by this stunt. Pease lock them up, Chairman Starmer.
Nah. Let's get them a nice dinner and a bottle of lager.
"I'm a fighter not a quitter"
The lettuce
She doesn't quit, she wilts.
She's still pissed that starmer has overtook her as Britain's worst prime minister
Unfair on the lettuce
Facts don't care about feelings.
Now do something similar for Blair.
The directors of Led By Donkeys Limited will only run political campaigns and stunts against whoever their secretive donors and financial backers tell them to.
A Tory all my life, I do so believe in respect. BUT........ I found this hilarious and most appropriate. Truss really showed her her true colours here!😮
Truth hurts
What was the truth?
If she had ignored the banner and just carried on then she might have gained a microbe of respect. Instead she immediately grabs her stuff and goes to have a cry in the toilets.
The woman who claimed she was strong enough to lead our country couldn't even handle one little banner and immediately ran away. What a coward!
When a meeting has been infiltrated by paid commercial protesters like those from Led By Donkeys Limited, it was probably wise for her own safety to leave as quickly as possible.
Appropriately Dressed in Green just Like a lettuce 🥬😂😂😂😂😂😂
She actually didnt crash the economy, but that was the media's take on it.
still can't believe Liz Letruss hasn't caught on
Lezzttruce
I’d have Truss as PM over Stalin any day
this is a cover to support free speech in UK?
how about prestors online whom sentenced 24month in prision?
UK is gorgeous!
Right wing lettuce
Better than the left-wing sausage
Who is arsed about Lis truss hope she doesn’t come back she doesn’t no what she’s doing now or then 🇬🇧🏴
The financial backers and donors of the directors of Led By Donkeys clearly want to focus on her for some reason.
And the interviewer ought to have gone after her instead of looking up at the sign.
Truss is chronically detached from reality.
Amazing what a limited liability company paid to run political campaigns and stunts will do against whoever their secretive donors and financial backers tell them to.
She should be charged with treason for her crimes to our economy.
What the one the BOE took responsibility for?
@@garethkalum8297 did they? Serious question. Or did her defenders claim it was the BoE? I wouldn't be surprised either way. Fot the record, i am a tory myself.
So should Blair, Cameron, Clegg, Johnson and Starmer.
God no please dont support Trump.. he needs successful people behind him.
I guess that lettuce lasted longer than that interview
The scattered applause when she stormed out reminded me of that at the end of David Brent's dance....
booho she should be away from the public eye
She's right. It's not funny. Truss wiped tens of thousands off the value of my pension pot - it still hasn't recovered.
Her favourite beatle song is...Lettuce Be 😅
I thought it was "Rocket man"?
