Liz Truss wants a peerage for the Institute of Economic Affairs DG who backed her budget

1. Littlewood and Elliott won't refuse

One thing you realise very quickly about Tufton Street gobshites is that they love giving themselves fancy titles. The office intern soon becomes a "senior fellow of public policy".

Worse still than the pretentiousness is the wild dishonesty and gaslighting of these people. And there's no greater example of this than Mark Littlewood when things went downhill for the Truss government after the mini budget. I honestly can't think of anybody in Westminster I hold in greater contempt than the IEA.
