Where is Liz Truss's 'uncensorable' new social media network?

With August here – traditionally the last month of summer – are we finally about to see the launch of Liz Truss’s new social media network?

Back in February, the short-lived former prime minister used a bitcoin conference in Bedford to announce the launch of an “uncensorable” social media platform this summer to take on the “deep state”. The as-yet-unnamed platform would be “uncancellable” in the hope of reversing what she described as “the West’s war against itself”, she claimed with not a little hyperbole.

In April she told her audience to expect more news “fairly soon”, but not a peep has been heard of the venture since. Rats in a Sack did contact Truss’s “people”, as they say, for an update, but hasn’t heard back.

Meanwhile, Truss was last week speaking at a conference of the far-right Italian think tank Nazione Futura where – billed as “one of the most influential figures in international politics” – she decried how the recent rapid turnarounds of prime ministers was putting Britain’s “history of being a stable political system” at risk. Might she be able to think of a recent premier whose tenure contributed significantly to that notion?
