Liz Truss's latest foray into the world of entertainment, 'The Liz Truss Show', promises to tackle the biggest issues facing the west, but the show's premise feels like a joke. Instead of confronting the tough topics, it appears to be a rehashing of her failed attempts at politics.
In this new format, Liz will delve into the cultural battles reshaping the west, which sounds like a vague promise to appeal to anyone looking for a cure-all solution. However, given Truss's track record on issues such as free markets and economic policy, it's hard to take anything she has to say at face value.
The show is based on a fairytale concept, where Liz plays the heroine who was almost destroyed by the "deep state" but is now back with a vengeance. This echoes her failed bid for prime minister, which ended with her being ousted by market forces that she had spent years trying to control through free markets.
Liz's new show seems like a form of political homeopathy, where a small dose of the problem becomes the solution. She claims this new endeavour will be about "the cultural battles reshaping the west", but it feels more like a desperate attempt to cling to relevance.
The announcement of 'The Leconfield', Liz's proposed private members' club in London, is perhaps her most absurd venture yet. Members are required to pay £500,000 each to join, with promises of a "secure ecosystem" and "unique business centre". This has been likened to a WeWork for arseholes, and the term seems apt.
Despite the absurdity of it all, there may be some coherence to Liz Truss's two seemingly unrelated projects. If she can convince 700 people to pay her half a million quid each, then maybe – just maybe – she'll have finally found success on her own terms. However, that would require a rather drastic re-evaluation of the entire west, which seems like an unrealistic expectation.
Ultimately, 'The Liz Truss Show' and 'The Leconfield' feel like two sides of the same coin – both are examples of Liz's inability to accept failure and instead try to manufacture her own success. As for viewers tuning in, it remains to be seen whether anyone will actually watch this pantomime of a show, but one thing is certain: it'll be an entertaining spectacle.

. AND £500,000 MEMBERSHIP FEES FOR A CLUB? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! 
IT SMELLS OF SELF-INTEREST. I GUESS ONLY TIME WILL TELL IF ANYONE ACTUALLY TUNED IN TO 'THE LIZ TRUSS SHOW' OR JUST WATCH IT OUT OF CURIOUSITY 
lol what's next? A cooking show where she tries to make sense of Brexit with some dodgy recipes? And that Leconfield private club? 500k a pop for a exclusive hangout spot? only in our crazy world 
. People always talk about how expensive it is to join, but think about all the high-powered business deals that could go down in that "secure ecosystem" 
. Maybe it's not her best idea, but hey, someone's gotta try, right? And honestly, if she can make it work, who cares what critics say? The west needs more people like Liz Truss – bold and unafraid to take risks 
.
the whole premise just seems so... off 
i mean, free markets and economic policy aren't exactly topics you can just "delve into" in a casual tv setting 
it feels like she's trying too hard to be relatable & appealing to everyone 
which is weird considering her track record on those exact issues 
but at least they'd be paying for actual workspaces 
not some fancy-schmancy "secure ecosystem" 
. One minute she's trying to be all deep and cultural with her "cultural battles reshaping the west" and the next, she's running a £500k members club that sounds like a sketch from The Office 
. Either way, I'm curious to see how this plays out on TV – might be more entertaining than I think 
. maybe it's time for us to shift our focus from trying to control everything to learning to work with ourselves and others in harmony 
But you know what? I'm low-key kinda hyped just to see how far she'll take it 
, it's hard to take anything she says at face value. The idea of a private members' club, 'The Leconfield', is just absurd - £500,000 per member? That's like asking people to invest in a bubble 
.
! Her new show & private members' club sound like a recipe for disaster – or at least a solid laugh 
. The whole thing feels like a weird experiment in how far people will go for a dose of drama & entertainment. Either way, I'm low-key intrigued 
And don't even get me started on the private members' club – £500k to join? Only in London, am I right?
