I'm not even looking at the gotcha interviews. She makes so many unforced errors.
In her earlier interviews, she said the energy support scheme capped all bills at £2,500. Clearly she got yelled at by her handlers because towards the later round of interviews she correctly said that 'typical' energy bills would be £2,500.

The worst part of all this now is they’re going to implement austerity measures all around to fund the tax cuts. Public services will be killed after being strangled for 12 years.
And these fucking red wall morons voted for them in their droves.
I doubt it - they've successfully alienated everyone at this stage. Austerity was out of fashion in 2019, Boris Johnson worked that out and pivoted to the red wall and at least provided lip service to levelling up. Current polling has Truss being extremely unpopular with the Red Wall and no attempt to win them back. The centre right Tories have less in common with this lot and will likely vote Lib Dem. So that just leaves 20% of the country as purists.
On top of that she's wasted the new prime minister bounce on a 'mini-Budget' that i) was not required to be published and ii) was not run past the OBR
Labour are doing cartwheels right now, there's a reason why they spent most of the leadership campaign targeting Sunak and not Truss even though the former was behind in the members polls.
