Weird to write an article about Liz Truss as a math snob (a description that seems rather stretched to be honest) without mentioning that her father, John Truss, is a fairly well known model theorist! (Even though they're not really very close from what I've been told by students of the latter)

I don't have a point, I was linking for those who aren't aware of the British term "PPE"

Oh I see, I was confused because I didn't mention PPE in my comment, maybe you meant to answer to the other top level comment which does use this abbreviation!
