On occasion, important knowledge or information can emerge from unlikely – & even unpalatable – origins or sources.
This, very important book, on the disgraced 44-day-reign ex-PM catastrophile – Liz Truss – is a tale of plenary vassalage, staggering ineptitude & mega cronyism, & fifth-columnist sabotage, amounting to a monumental “Trussterfuck” of treasonous super corruption.
Truss was the ultimate cheap chancer & archetypical grifter. In the death throws of the cancerous, catatonic, cacophilic Conservative Party, she was almost without peer in her beneath the barrel prostration. The definition of a grifter? – an entirely scruple-less “careerist”, who never develops nor cultivates any personal expertise, merit, ability or acumen, but chooses to instead embark on a strategy of ingratiation, corrupt favouritism, targeted collusion, any & all cock-sucking (literal & figurative) & unearned advancement by way of “backroom” agreement & open prostitution, with absolutely no consideration or standard towards any ethical implication whatsoever. The grifter will also skew on a dime, bending any which way their circus captains & enablers instruct, no matter how fantastical the u-turn, glaring the contradiction, or derisible the argument.
The capacity to betray, lie, & fake – in any required direction & against any target – & no matter how tenuous & flimsy the farce – is the grifters “worth” & tools of the trade, as well as a one-way fealty to the Piper or puppet master they swivel for (almost always undeclared & ulterior).
Truss was a willing crash dummy for immeasurably pernicious outside plotters (Peter Thiel, The Heritage Foundation, & the worst of the corporate raider & asset stripping crash & earn bandit bad actors from over the Atlantic, who were comfortably calling the shots in Blighty) who would pilot her exiguous & pure-calamity term, which ended with a near economic crash (opportunities for them).
Truss’s completely unnatural ascension to PM was a mutant act of extraordinary artifice, irregular chicanery, & outsider intervention in the political process (she was of course, never voted in by the British public (the exact same scenario with another Peter Thiel product – JD Vance), & would never, ever, ever, ever have succeeded naturally had it gone to the public vote), called in by the Thiel shadow government.
“I was very sympathetic to Liz Truss.” – Peter Thiel, 2023, Oxford Union
The proverbial “useful idiot”, husked & hollowed Truss was dense & vacuous, intellectually shy, markedly unsavvy, politically & socially inept, & with the charisma & magnetism of a suburban used-wheelchair sales rep suffering from the side-effects of a cocktail of drugs to suppress a rare disorder or medical condition.
In short, she was absolutely shit – in all dimensions – totally & thoroughly unsuitable & fantastically unqualified & inadmissible to even the lower ranks of MP fringe maintenance.
The very idea of this scrape actually, literally, seriously? becoming PM was firmly in the realms of the paranormal & preposterous, an indescribably ludicrous & absurd prank that would be laughed out of the air before it could even simper or squeak.
The scatalogical triage of Bolsonaro & $ump’s successful installations – although both profound obscenities – require different explanations.
The curse that was Boris Johnson also cannot match the nullified vapidity & all-encompassing dreek & husk of Truss, who’s shit-stooping could only be outperformed by the exorbitantly abysmal & abhorrent Priti “Lady Haw-Haw” Patel & the tumescent troglodyte Therese Coffey, the latter who served-shamed-stained as Liz Truss’s Deputy Prime Minister & “Health Minister” under Truss’s catastrophic, ignominious & unprecedentedly short premiership as PM.
Truss’s “artificial installation” marked – & inflicted – something unsurpassably grievous & grave against the nation & the political system as a whole … for such an unqualified candidate – under such unacceptable & inadmissible terms & conditions of appointment, urged & exacted on the country by such detrimental & frankly “enemy” overseas bad actors & interests – all without the public’s approval or consent – was an “unthinkable” event & outcome.
But that was also the objective & function of it in itself; & another nadir had been struck, another red boundary crossed, & another degeneration threshold breached.
The country, to this very day, still lives with the giant gushing wound, with a final & enduring insult to the obscenity; Truss has still never been “charged” for her crimes of office, her crimes against the nation & it’s economy, or her treason & corruption – & astonishingly – is free & “fucked” enough to still squirm around debasing the country with her hated & imbecilic “musings & criticisms” which are lifted straight from her extremists puppeteers in the USA (she is better received in the US by the likes of The Heritage Foundation or CPAC than she is in the UK where she has wrought so much damage, humiliation & decline, & is unanimously detested everywhere).
With the mood set, let’s progress to this important book, but with a preliminary word of warning.
It’s published by HarperCollins, so Rupert Murdoch’s book company.
The authors are also severely tarnished, Harry Cole is the Political editor of The Sun, & James Heale shills for the rag the Spectator.
This is intensely problematic, & the veracity of everything is therefore called into question.
In short though, & having a trenchant & extensive research into the debacle of Truss from many separate sources, I can definitely conclude that this book has some especially excellent information within it.
The thing to also denote here & be aware of is that “new extremist” – nullfidian actors & candidates like Truss & Vance – are considered too extreme/compromised or dangerous for even right-wing, capitalist, “conservative” & “conventional markets” orientated figures & ideologues themselves.
This is also the mutable schism between the old abusers – Charles & David Koch & Rupert Murdoch, & the new ilk that deploy freak minions like Truss – Peter Thiel, Mark Andreessen & Elon Musk.
Back to the disgraced “one woman ‘think tank’” & her tapeworm crawl to Number 10.
Truss went to Oxford, & was initially an active Liberal Democrat.
She also joined the Hayek Society & wallowed in freemarket fundamentalism, which eventually won out I guess, seeing her transfer to the Tory Party. Truss’s dramatic conversions & defections are numerous, & her gravity defying flip from being anti-Brexit to a vociferous pro-Brexit-ultra as soon as it was politically convenient is common knowledge & a stark demonstration of her capacity for treachery & untrustworthiness.
& speaking of Truss’s potent penchant for treachery & untrustworthiness, we have the phenomenal example she afflicted against her own husband, Hugh O’Leary.
A dismal & disturbed shit of a man, & a fanatic freemarket ideologue, O’Leary was an accountant, zealous Tory & London School of Economics (LSE) graduate.
They met at a Tory party conference.
‘On a lot of things he’s advisor number one. he’s incredibly political, very right wing, unbelievably right wing – he’s almost as right wing as her. He loves the Tory party.’
he also clearly hasn’t been keeping his “wife’s” sexual appetite sated in what appears to be an odd & unconsummated “marriage of convenience”.
One friend of “the couple” observes that he is “always present, never there”.
In 2004, Truss started an 18-month-affair with a “married high-flying Tory frontbencher” Mark Field after he was assigned to her as a mentor by party HQ.
“After she had been selected, alarms started to ring because she brought Mark Field to the constituency and I started to realise that there was more to their relationship than meets the eye. Had the affair been known, she would not have been selected. After all our trouble with Sue Catling, we wanted someone who was beyond reproach in her political and private life.” –
“At the home Truss rented in Calder Valley, neighbours noted a number of gentlemen callers at the address, including Field.”
“The Tories have a system of established MPs acting as mentors to young activists. Liz was sent to “shadow” Mark, but it seems Mark took his mentoring duties more seriously than intended.” – “senior Conservative”
“Some weeks after the affair ended, Truss told the politician she was pregnant. Her baby, Frances, was born on the 18 March the following year.
Truss told friends that the baby was her husband’s, and Hugh O’Leary is named as the father on the birth certificate.”
I find that improbable, with the “number of gentlemen callers” depositing their stakes & the “arranged marriage” flavour of the two freemarketeers social agreement, that O’Leary is the biological father.
O’Leary is almost definitely a closeted homosexual, with Truss serving as his beard, & he as her cloak for Liz’s weird & habitual brand of promiscuity.
This is highly frequent in conservative circles, especially the more ideologically driven adherents.
O’Leary was probably grateful for one of the numerous gentlemen callers for sparing him the act of insemination.
How on earth was this woman ever allowed to slither into Downing Street?
That’s how dejected & despoiled Britain was, that this wastrel could be shoehorned in at the behest of Peter Thiel & the “death by trade deal” corporate camarilla in a sunk & subjugated shit-show of a country.
It is also precisely these “disqualifications” that appeal to the abettors & orchestrators.
The capacity for treachery & betrayal is a highly prized degeneracy in the candidate, backed up of course by some exclusive “kompromat”.
And on the subject of kompromat, there is the rumoured Liz Truss “sex tape”.
This is what originally made me acquire & read the book.
It was a review of Out of the Blue in the Guardian, where I assumed the article would be more than enough, but it mentioned the “sex tape”. I had never heard of a Truss sex tape before, & could find no reference to it online or in the paper’s archives, which only made me more suspicious. but it would certainly explain a lot, particularly the hyper anomalies of her appointment, & the bizarre, dodgy & super suspicious nature of her fast-track rise in the clearly rigged nominations to succeed Johnson.
The sex tape allegation is almost hidden in the book, flashing by only once on page-265 whilst Truss was facing-off against Rishi Sunak –
“If some ministers had had their way, the campaign would have been significantly nastier. At least two MPs and four ministers backing Sunak briefed a number of journalists that Truss was having an affair with an aide; been subject to formal complaints for her predatory behaviour towards a younger male staff member; and even a far-fetched tale that she was battling to contain the public revelation that a sex tape existed of her. A ‘dirty dossier’ floated around the grubbier parts of Westminster, but never saw the light of day.
To his credit Sunak instructed his most senior team that they were to go nowhere near Truss’s private life [why?] and warned that anyone who did would be shown the door. Revelations about Sunak’s family tax status, US Green Card and wife’s business connections were noticeably absent from Truss’s official campaign, despite the teams trading hammer blows every day.”
Anyone that has actually studied in detail Liz Truss & her antics will know that it really isn’t at all a stretch of the imagination to envisage a video recording of Truss getting gang-banged in a Thatcher wig in a backroom at the Carlton Club by a group of coked up & champagne inebriated Tory youths.
Liz Truss’s psychology, character, conduct & history – particularly pertaining to the adulterous betrayal of her husband & the “cross pregnancy” with numerous “gentlemen callers” – inviolably affirms the “sex tape” scenario as overwhelmingly plausible.
That is not to say that it was/is – simply that it is entirely feasible, & that the allegations exist (it is only in this book & the Guardian review article that I have ever heard them mentioned).
I also find the near absolute absence of reporting, speculation or discussion on the allegations of this “sex tape” suspicious in themselves.
Blackmail, compromise & “kompromat” on a pre-selected false-figurehead (diplomat, MP, president or PM) are now almost “requisites” in the field.
Any commercial or orthodox candidate (& plenty of the fraudulent & entirely disingenuous Farage, Bannon, Trump, & RFK Junior “alternative” fraudster types) are highly likely to be on tape doing something career destroying in the least, with the offending/incriminating material safely in the hands of their shadow backers & donors, who dictate their policy & actions from the dark.
It’s just the way it now works & how badly “our politics” have degraded.
Prior to Truss, it was the terminally compromised Boris Johnson, who was openly & brazenly taunted by Jennifer Arcuri on both sides of the Atlantic (“Agent Arcuri” was linked to the filth-axis of Steve Bannon, The Mercers, Milo Yiannopoulos & Peter Thiel) as well as the socialite, spy & blackmailer Evgeny Lebedev (now Lord Lebedev thanks to the treasonous stooge Johnson).
the “oven ready” trade deal, or “slave deal” that was pursued so zealously by Johnson & Truss (to the immense detriment of the British farmer, food producer, & public) was a sideline of this corrupt consortium.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/feb/21/liz-truss-deep-state-cpac-far-right
Truss’s truly extraordinary & overt treachery against her own country over the Atlantic, demonstrated conspicuously by her frequent feature appearances at the diabolical & extremist Heritage Foundation infernal think tank, CPAC conferences, & even Steve Bannon’s Whore Room broadcast, can be rivalled only by the traitor Nigel Farage, & Truss’s grotesque & ultra-recreant male equivalent – the continually disgraced Conservative MP Liam Fox, a dedicated fifth-columnist paragon for “extreme American corporatocracy” actors & interests.
Truss’s personal & sexual vulnerabilities – all humongous security threats – are exacerbated to even more alarming extremes by her notorious drinking, partying & cocaine consumption.
These disturbing security breaches & shockingly profligate & dishonourable jamborees became known disparagingly as “fizz with Liz”.
This book is very unsparing on the crass & squanderous decadence Liz felt entitled to so frivolously & cavalierly indulge in whilst crashing the country, almost all of which was on the tax payers dime.
Additional reporting on these absolutely appalling binges emerged in the Guardian after the book’s publication & remain profoundly damming if not incriminating (yes! There must be an independent inquiry & sever punishment for this clear corruption of office).
In truth, the shocking imbroglio of Truss, & the fact that the law & the hammer has not sternly & consummately caught up with her post catastrophe, is an overlooked & underestimated outrage & obscenity that is now deeply embedded in the British quagmire & neo-nadir.
As one of the “handlers”, orchestrators & evillest of actors – Peter Thiel – would tellingly approve in a 2023 speech at the very university that she had attended as a young woman – “I was very sympathetic to Liz Truss.”
The very real & lasting damage, international humiliation, lowering & insecurity that this pitiful & deeply treasonous criminal fuckwit inflicted on Britain is very much alive & well.
It is to the ongoing weakness, feebleness & distress of the nation that she not only evades justice & reckoning, but is “tolerated” as an active & ongoing fifth-columnist.
she acts as an active albatross, who’s very presence & persistence – no matter how ridiculed & unpopular – continues broadcasting the countries utter handicap, self-abasement, acute crisis of sovereignty, & dearth of self-respect.
It is to the countries’ eternal shame that both the public, & the-powers-that-be, all acquiesce to this feckless bottom-scraping enemy excretion.
There is a lot more to be said & studied by the stain of Truss, & the wider implications of the “Trussterfuck” phenomenon on the worst features of the modern political mire & the curse of “money in politics”.
Her “career”, & those that enabled & authored it, is a major warning, & should be studied & countered thoroughly.
As a book review, I have also been fairly scant on excerpts & quotes from Out of the Blue.
The fact is, despite all the considerable deterrence with the authors affiliations & the publisher, this is a spectacular book on the freak accident of Truss.
There is so much more bad activity to behold & divulge, & the book is packed with information on the calamity & corruption, as well as her other many appalling stunts, fuck-ups, & chronic & determined ineptitude.
The total veracity of it all, & what may have been intentionally omitted, is definitely in question at times, but the revelations & insight on the subject are, frankly, indispensable, & currently, there is no other book on this detestable wastling of a woman (unless you include her self-penned, massively disparaged & unanimously discredited & pummelled Ten Years to Save the West).
There should be a fervent & growing movement in Britain for a “Trial of Truss”, but various powers & vested interests, both national & global (particularly from the US), prevent this from happening, as well as Britain’s truly dismal concern for its own standing, security, & condition of justice & sovereignty within it’s own borders.

ps: whilst corroborating this review, I learned that a second book on “Trussterfuck” was published last year by Anthony Seldon entitled Truss at 10 – How Not to be Prime Minister.
