I'm into the last chapter, an addition to the book since it was first published, following the election. It may as well have been written before it though, there is passing reference to the election result but mainly a diatribe about the half century leading up to it. I've only got another 15 pages but I don't think I can finish it.

The lack of leadership skills, disinterest in alternative perspectives and disregard for the wider context is just baffling.

So black and white, left vs right (left is always wrong) using "progressive" as a pejorative. Her decision-making does make sense inside her very narrow world view, but there is very little evidence of understanding, or even curiosity in, effective leadership.

This book was clearly written in a rush. It reads in the way she seems to have approached everything: crashing through each challenge and onto the next thing, without pause for reflection and always with a "I was right" mentality. Even things like the freeing of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe after 5 years in an Iranian prison was summed up in a couple of paragraphs.

Yep, I'm doing it. I'm diving into the mind of Liz Truss. Wish me luck. So far the general gist seems to be: "Everyone is against me and should get with the programme. I'm not interested in other perspectives, I just need to WIN THE ARGUMENT and everything will be fine."
