An old clip popped up of Truss talking back when she was chief secretary to the Treasury.
In the clip, Truss basically calls British workers lazy. She goes on to say in the referendum the idea that Europe + migrants are causing the problems isn't true. And that we just need more graft here,
I'm sure this is gonna go down v well with her Brexiter supporters. |

"Do you think as a nation we are as productive as others?
Do we as a nation have preformed ideas on what warrants a good job and what jobs are not for us, but happy for others to do them?
"
Maybe not, but is it all down to lazy workers. Or does lack of government investment in infrastructure and retraining people have a role to play..? |

He asked a question based on comments made by Liz Truss. Do you hate awkward questions ? |

Not sure how you got me asking a couple of questions based on the OP, to hating my country?
Fancy answering the questions? |

I think the infrastructure / network in the UK is poor outside the major cities and that plays a huge part in work and attitudes.
I also think it depends on how we define lazy.
If I take my car to a garage for a tyre, and they suck in air and tell me they can't do anything for a couple of days, but they are sitting around do nothing, do I see lazy or people on a break?
I think we have a society that wants everything now, and people in jobs who don't want to play that game.
As a nation, we can play the bloody minded not doing it, up theirs and who they think they are cards, rather well. I would put us close second to the French, I think we kept those genes.

Yet another sound bite that’s nothing really, we all know and have worked with lazy cunts who don’t give value for money to their employers.
I have worked in high union membership companies and all they did all day long was make things difficult for the company and others who just wanted to get on with working.

"Isn't what Truss said effectively racist? ie basically saying a certain race doesn't work hard enough?
No, of course not."
Really? Why not? She called us all lazy based on the country we come from. Sounds pretty racist to me. |

Funny isn’t it that it’s always the unions that get bashed! I can’t be the only person who has had to endure useless cunts who call themselves managers coming up with half arsed schemes to demonstrate their management skills!
Apparently Truss is a workaholic and doesn’t see why everyone can’t be as efficient as she is….headless chickens comes to mind! |

Even on these forums people say brits are lazy especially on a topic about immigration. We need immigrants to do the jobs brits simply won't do has been quoted before. So Liz appears to be agreeing with these people. I'm certainly not a fan of either candidate but it does seem to be a case of who said it rather than what was said. |

People always seem to foget about all the benefits workers have because of unions. They just parrot tabloid bullshit without thinking of that. |

She is storming her way to victory and that is what counts. The country is privileged to have her as prime minister. If she gets things right she might even beat the 80 seat majority gained by Boris which in itself was a stunning achievement. |

I disagree. When your after votes to gain a position of power for yourself you'll say anything.
Her true self was on show before this power play. |

I think Liz Truss should be grateful that I am a lazy oik with no ambition. If I could be actually bothered to get up and do something then I could easily be the next PM but as I can’t, then I won’t and that means she will probably manage to scrape in.
Bet she doesn’t even send me a thank you card for my lack of effort. |

The lazy Brits comment made the headlines but the uncomfortable truth is what she said prior to that about Brexit happening because Brits wanted easy answers.
As was said on here and elsewhere at the time… Brexit - simple solutions for simple people. |

When they say that beaches are contaminated with sewage, they mean 'untreated stuff that was in the storm drains'. They don't mean actual human faeces. |

Of course Liz truss think british people are idlers, she has been saying it for years.
She is the type of person who had watch downton abbey and thought that is a good idea, and said why can’t we return to those days for.
Well Liz, you think we are lazy, we think your a waxwork model which escaped from Madame Tussaud’s! |

Is liz worse than Boris? A very low bar indeed and it was said on these forums in the past that absolutely anyone would be better than Boris. |

I think she's right, so many poor attitudes and below work standards is appalling... wait over 6 months for a passport and driving licence
Turn up at most factories and either on break or dinner with no other plan etc
This country is failing and does need a good kick up the arse |

This sort of attitude always amuses me. Partly because it's just like seeing a manifestation of certain tabloids in human form. But mainly because such commenters don't seem to realise the likes of Truss hold them in contempt too.
Truss was calling you lazy too, my friend. It's not just those other chaps across the street. |

The Brits have managed to make significantly enormous levels of wealth for the more fortunate people in this country. So I think she's talking BS. And she seems devoid of anything planned that seems credible for our national wellbeing. |
