Kay Burley spectacularly roasted Liz Truss with a list of her own u-turns
If you didn’t watch Thursday night’s Tory leadership hustings on Sky News, we can hardly blame you. It was the fourth in just over a week, with eight more to go between now and 31st August.
Is hustings fatigue a thing?

That would be a yes.
If you did watch the broadcast, however, you will have seen this standout moment.

You were a Remainer …and now you’re not.
You supported Brits to fight in Ukraine …then you didn’t.
You wanted to build on the green belt …and now you don’t.
You wanted to abolish the monarchy …and now you don’t.
You wanted to arm Taiwan …and now I’m not sure if you’re saying you do or not.
You wanted to cut civil servants’ pay in the regions …and then you said you didn’t.
Will the real Liz Truss please stand up.
Whatever happens at the other hustings, it probably won’t beat that.

Excruciating to watch.
Kay Burley needed to say it.
Just the second hand embarrassment is painfully real.#BattleforNo10

This is like watching a combo finishing move in a fighting video game. Kay Burley absolutely pummelled Liz Truss, and rightly so.pic.twitter.com/crqAsyQCJ5
