A sound solution to keep Liz from running amok again

-

HUFFING and puffing around the park on my run, an image of Liz Truss flashed into my mind. Was her run similar to mine?

She’s got the gardens of Lambeth Palace to jog around, so I doubt she shares the same humiliatio­n of fellow joggers overtaking her – and, mortifying­ly, some folk who are walking. What, I wonder, does she listen to, or does she use the time cooking up the next questionab­le scheme for the economy? For the wellbeing of Britain, I recommend her to listen to Anthony Trollope’s The Way We Live Now. This entertaini­ng and educative podcast on the shortcomin­gs of society and politics, is unlikely to leave you so pumped up that you embark on some new, ‘controvers­ial and difficult’ plan.
