I'm willing to take the job on for a day or two.
I'm afraid your solid work ethic bars you, OG.

I'll vote for you OG - for a small rake-off of course :-)
Hope she turns it down.
But for ballance "John Major, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and David Cameron all claimed more than £100,000 in the last financial year.", though they did serve alot longer. I dont think May claim's it but cant be sure. Shouldn't be paid or at least should be like redundancy and based on years service
Worth every penny to be shot of the empty-headed tool.
I never thought truss was up to it and cant wait for Keir, but again theres no ballance in many of the posts on here and so they cant be taken seriousley

For example //For crashing the pound, the economy, and the Tory Party//
The pound- temporarily yes (though partly due to dollar strength) but its bounced back.
The Tory party- yes, tho' I blame the Cons members who voted her.
The economy- well am not sure she made much difference in 44 days, it was struggling anyway like most in Europe, and is no better or worse than the mess before she stepped in
What happened to you, Douglas?
You were never bitter, like this, back in the old days.
I think ex-prime ministers are expected to account for the up to £115k p.a. they can claim; I seem to recall questions were being asked about John Major and what he is doing with all the money he claimed – but as ever with the rich, they seem to get away with whatever they like and no action/sanction has been taken against him.
It's Kwasi I feel sorry for, none of that for him. Hopefully his city mates will sort him out for tipping them off to short the pound.
Does she get police protection for life , as well ?
Arent the MLAs in Northern Ireland getting paid for sweet fa.
If you want some serious wonga for failure, become a football manager.
Actually it's not a pension for life. From the Mail on Line:

"Meanwhile, on top of the £18,860 pay-out, Ms Truss will also be entitled to claim up to £115,000 a year in an allowance for former prime ministers.

Payments are made to help ex-premiers continue to fulfil their public duties through the running of an office."
According to the BBC tonight there are calls for her not to take the money.
I've been worn down by the constant barrage of nonsense and lies that cross these pages, Spicerack.

I'm still mostly smiling though, esp on the inside. :-)
It goes with the job Liz so take the pension, in one years time nobody will recall whether you took it or not.
Oh I will, Sqad....I really will. :-(
It's not a pension, it's an allowance which has to be claimed and justified.

Having said that, I fail to see why being an ex-Prime Minister justifies any allowance, let alone one of that magnitude.
@18.01.Me to,Dougie.Especially the lies.Its the lies on this site that saddens me.Im not smiling.Until the liars are removed from this site,this site becomes untenable.
It’s not the lies on the site, it’s denial of the truth and acknowledgment of factual events.
The spinning here would make Malcolm Tucker blush.
