Barquentine Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 Liz Truss? That train wreck of a PM? Shortest-serving UK prime minister. Of course she's looking for a scapegoat! 4 Quote
Aristides Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 Truss’s first budget was a complete disaster and she had walk back just about all of it. She didn’t even last two months as PM. 1 Quote
CdnFox Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 Sorry guys but nobody else has anything nice to say about him either. It's typical that you would attack the person you are listening to rather than address the points, but that doesn't make them go away. and doesn't this sound familiar: Mark Carney defends 'staggering' Bank of England expenses bill | Bank of England | The Guardian The Bank of England governor has defended his advisers’ “staggering” expenses claims as he revealed that his own bill exceeded £300,000 over the past two years.

Aristides Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 (edited) Truss got the PM job by courting the hard right of the party by all of a sudden becoming a big Brexit booster. Like that has had nothing to do with Britain’s economic decline. I haven’t made up my mind about Carney but Truss is certainly a questionable critic with her record.

ExFlyer Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 (edited) Interestingly. Lilley makes a statement and then it is copied or repeated in social media but I have searched and cannot find any comment by Lizz Truss (the shortest PM unequivocal term of office, at 49 days.) anywhere. The Guardian says "'Even diehard Conservatives would not vote for her':" so, she has no credibility to begin with LOL Having said that, heir apparent Carney seems like a Trudeau clone like Freeland Edited February 20 by ExFlyer Quote Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Aristides Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 Geez, with all that power she says Carney had, he must have been the Prime Minister of Britain and the Conservatives who formed the government from 2010 until last year weren’t responsible for any economic policy, even her when she was chancellor. 1 Quote
Aristides Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 (edited) Truss saying all of her governments economic policies were the fault of Carney is like saying all of Trudeau and Freelands policies were the fault of the governors of the Bank of Canada. It’s no wonder they fired her as PM after less than two months. Edited February 20 by Aristides 1 Quote

No she did however tell anyone who would listen what he did as his tenure as the head of Bank of UK which lasted much longer than her tenure....

ExFlyer Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 2 minutes ago, Army Guy said: Must have had some credibility she was elected to the PM chair... Yes but it took 45 days for the members to realize it was a huge mistake and she was punted out. Then lost her seat in the general election where the real PM was elected.

Bank governors can advise government and control interest rates. Policy and spending is determined by government, not banks. She was a cabinet member for 10 years, including during Brexit. If British economic policy was shit, that's more of a condemnation of her and her government than Carney. 1 Quote

I agree, she is the chick in charge and blame can be pointed in her direction for failures and wins....but if she relied on Carney advice he and you guys need to own that portion of blame Mr Carney may not be this pie in the sky many have made him out to be...There are many examples posted here on this forum to atleast make people question the guys motives, or qualifications...and when taken all together may point to he is the wrong guy just like justin was...

So what you appear to be seeing is he has no experience trying to have an impact on the economy or fiscal policy. So he has none of the skills necessary to run for prime minister Quote

Aristides Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 Just now, CdnFox said: So again you're saying he has no qualifications. The government he gave advice to seemed to feel his advice was bad. You said that, not me. I'm not making a case for or against him, I'm just not making shit up. Do you think Bank of Canada governors were responsible for Trudeau's and Freeland's economic policies? Have either of them ever claimed that? Truss is blaming the Bank of England governor for her, Cameron's and Boris's policies. 3 Quote
CdnFox Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 2 minutes ago, Aristides said: You said that, not me. You absolutely did. Quote I'm not making a case for or against him, I'm just not making shit up. Nobody said you were making a case for against, but what you said points to the fact that he has no experience. If you're correct that is. Quote Do you think Bank of Canada governors were responsible for Trudeau's and Freeland's economic policies? Have either of them ever claimed that? Truss is blaming the Bank of England governor for her, Cameron's and Boris's policies. Actually as I recall Poilievre suggested firing bank of Canada president because his policy was so bad and he made all kinds of promises about 'transitory' inflation that were 100 percent wrong. The Bank of Canada in turn danced around giving the liberals the blame for inflation although a few other banks were more direct. Which means he couldnt' even come out and be honest with the people. So his fiscal policy was crap and led to more inflation, he gave bad advice to the government and then when he disagreed with them he couldn't even say so other than weak statements like they're not helpful with controlling inflation. Now I don't know if that means he controlled their financial policy or not but I do know that it doesn't sound like he did his job very well. Carney is in the same boat. All he did was run up a huge expense account and run the bank poorly. Some would say that makes him exceptionally qualified to be a liberal party leader, but he certainly not the leader Canada needs Quote
Aristides Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 My comments were about Truss blaming the BoE for her governments policies. You are trying to start something else and I'm not biting. 1 Quote
August1991 Posted February 21 Report Posted February 21 The clueless English-Canadian MSM seems to think that Carney will win, and become PM. Clueless. === Freeland might make the federal Liberals viable in the future. Quote
