Glory for a moment in the fevered desperation of the Tory press to have someone do worse than their very own, very special, out-of-control firehose, Liz Truss, spraying them all forever with her mess.

Nick Candy says he will raise more than £40 million to make Nigel Farage Prime Minister.
Oh ok. That’s how it’s going to work now, is it? Democracy torched by spoiled brat billionaires buying power for themselves and their arsehole mates.
It couldn’t be more critical for us all that they fail.

Sigh - classic fact free nonsense. ‘news’ story here totally fails to mention that Tory plans were for fines of £5k (later reduced to £3k) for each missed heat pump sale. What @Ed_Miliband has done is to reduce that to £500. Headline should read “Miliband slashes Tory boiler tax”
