People try to tell you what to think every day. Here are what some individuals and organisations told you about Liz Truss and her government’s “mini-budget” - perhaps worth remembering next time they try to tell you something…

@NeonHooligan@robertpopper My first job in London was on TCR around that time. I remember a guy holding a one man protest outside the Scientology place. He had a megaphone, and was pushing with a stick a stuffed dog on wheels.
@Richy6756 There were lots of people with mental health problems in the 70s, and I was injured by someone with a knife when I was playing in the park as a kid, but keep on turning out this bilge... From what I see, The Kids Are Alright.
@SilenceInPolish The beauty of this Ghostbusters scene is that she tells them her uncle thought he was St Jerome. Who is, of course, the patron saint of librarians...
If we had a public inquiry into Brexit, as well as Covid, we’d have many of the same characters, the same attitudes, and the same bullshit. A government built on hate, lies, narcissism, fear, bullying, innumeracy and tribalism is unlikely to deliver for its people. And it hasn’t.
