- “She should have just slowed it all down…tearing around Downing Street saying ‘I’ve only got two years’, turned out she only had two months.”
Harry Cole, political editor of The Sun, and James Heale, diary editor of The Spectator, are the authors of ‘Out Of The Blue: The Inside Story of the Unexpected Rise and Rapid Fall of Liz Truss’, the first biography of Britain’s shortest-serving prime minister.
They join Matt Chorley on #TimesRadio to discuss the defining moments of Liz Truss’ career.

Pound dropping, inflation through the ceiling, food banks, heat banks, almost 20 million below the poverty line....what a laugh!
And taxes up
But Boris’s new train is being built ; and only four hundred billion quids . It’s called ‘ leveling up’ .
Thing is you and I know that four hundred billion quids would do no good at all if used to create jobs . No we wanna get from London to Birmingham in the train fifteen minutes faster . That really is worth FOUR HUNDRED BILLION QUIDS !
I've never wondered what a Sun writer would be like before but on reflection it's exactly this guy.
You should check out Cole's back story. Some interesting colour in there.
@@BiggusDiggusable his tireless work pursuing vindication for Jeremy Clarkson was particularly heartwarming
@@morganhill-murphy5046 He is pretty loathsome. His start at Guidofawkes says a lot about where he really stands on the issues of the day
If there was a Spitting Image puppet of him it would look EXACTLY alike he does IRL
As an ordinary plonk voter I only remember one photo, the one in Moscow. I had no idea who she was. To me she came out of nowhere to be PM and thank goodness, disappeared just as quickly.
The Sun actually has a political editor?
Yes, They got him from the Star!! 😂
She's the perfect example of somebody who is extremely thick but thinks they're extremely clever. It's rife in politics and business. You fail upwards.
The Dunning-Kruger effect in action.
How old are these two?....... make that three...... Children's Hour goes Political.
Truss what a liability she was and probably still is she should be ed charged me with as criminal offence for the direct and deliberate damage she did to the UK .
It was pure pleasure😁
Liz Truss had an affair? Sorry but… 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Truss is ruled by her ego. She started as a Lib Dem. I think that she became a Tory because she calculated that she had a better chance of becoming an MP. She then decided that she wanted to become PM and then said what was necessary to become PM. I doubt that Truss has had a serious opinion on anything but she does says what others want to hear. Trussenomics was what the Tory Party membership wanted to hear.
Wow! Does Harry Cole get a cartoonist to draw himself each day, or is that for real?
Poor Harry… poor poor Harry… Brexit… Boris… truss… it wasn’t supposed to be like this was it… poor Harry…
this video lasted longer than she did in office
Perfect for Schadenfreude.
My favourite hobby . I list it on me job applications and CV but it never seems to do me any good .
These people are surely a completely different specis?!!....
The Tories always have been.
Well, the upside is that least the lady's rise and fall was fast.
A stretched out rise and long, painful fall would have involved many more blunders and associated costs to the long-suffering Brit. I fear Sunak's rise and inevitable fall may take a wee bit longer.
The sooner an election is called in the UK the better.
And quite what is it you expect from that ?
Better days ? I don’t think so . Don’t forget they’re all career politicians
How did she last so long?
Are all the Sun, times , Mail , "journo" from Eton Oxford, Cambridge...
Media, politics, business. All Oxbridge.
Harry Cole is 37 years old. He looks in his mid 50s.
Will buy the book
No one else will 😂
Stop criticizing about Liz Truss
She is my all time favourite
Prediction is so difficult, especially about the future. Though Starmer’s Out by Christmas was better.
Truss was worst political monster than Johnson but very people noticed her. There are a lot of historical lessons that need to be learned here.
Pub quiz question: which PM killed a queen by only giving her a hand...??
King Charles will miss his coronation
For years Tories used to laugh at the idea of Dianne Abbot becoming a minister but we have a whole slew of nonentities and incompetents achieving high ministerial office and in the case of Johnson and Truss both becoming Foreign Minister and Prime Minister. When you get to the lower ranks people achieved ministerial office who would be hard put to keep a job at MacDonalds.
She didn’t even understand cheese 😂
… and rise
Harry Cole - an extra from a Henry Fielding novel (that's not a compliment). All such a jolly hoot - mortgages rocketing, inflation and interest rates up, international reputation trashed. Meanwhile, back on planet earth......
The only fitting way to describe Cole and Heale is odious
mortgage rates 7% what a laugh!
History works in Funny ways. There are worse things than vegetables out there. 🇬🇧
When Liz fell from No10 she took Englands economy with her , Sunak has made it worse !
Sunak is doing his best to bring stability. You weren’t gonna get that from Truss or the imbecile Johnson
Is it true that Truss messaged Blinken after the pipeline was destroyed ??
no
Loving the bants, but these guys are the worst
Boris made Harry an an incel 😢🤭
Bet all three of these were having wet dreams about a Liz Truss premiership.
Hindsight is a great thing
