Who can forget that picture of Liz Truss atop a Challenger tank as the nation cried, “What a massive helmet”?
There was also that shot of her cycling, twirling a Union Jack umbrella like a demented Mary Poppins you would never trust with the weans.
And there was the classic of her in a fur hat in Moscow on a day so warm it potentially baked her brain. The latest was Truss posing with a slavering Spice Girl Geri Horner in a profound meeting of minds and talent.
Yes, this is Truss, the same Tory leadership candidate who has accused Nicola Sturgeon of being "an attention seeker".
For the definition of ‘attention seeker’, google countless pictures of Truss playing dress-up, taken by her tax-funded photographer.
Many are recreations of Thatcher photo ops in behaviour reminiscent of the movie Single White Female where the creepy roommate copies a woman to steal her life.
In the end, the roommate puts a stiletto through a bloke’s eye, which is how Truss would skewer Scotland given the chance.
Truss relished deriding Scotland’s First Minister at Monday’s Tory hustings as the white, old-bloke audience cheered their approval.
Such is her overwhelming desire to impress the slack-wearing Tory membership, Truss would say anything to please them, regardless of who she alienates.
They longed for a British imperialist of yesteryear slapping down an irksome insurgent in the colonies and Truss delivered.
Truss considers Scotland an irrelevant outpost and doesn’t even feign respect for us or our democratically elected leader.
Her insult of Scotland’s elected head will forever be emblematic of her disregard for our country and our right to choose independence or not.
For all she pops her Paisley connections on and off like a tartan bunnet, what she actually wants for Scotland is for us to get into line.
“I think the best thing to do with Nicola Sturgeon is ignore her,” said Truss. And put her on the naughty step? Good luck with that, Lizzie.
Whatever your views of Sturgeon, she has a far greater democratic legitimacy than Truss who is potentially about to be elected PM by a right-wing cabal of 160,000 Tory members.
Sturgeon has been First Minister of Scotland and Leader of the Scottish National Party since 2014 so Truss should either respect that or haud her wheesht.
Truss has every right to criticise and debate her political opponents and Sturgeon is more than fit but to dismiss a first minister as though she is a wayward child is insulting.
Even right-winger Liam Fox said: “When it comes to the First Minister of Scotland, they have a constitutional position, they have to be treated with respect.”
Truss will not only have alienated Scottish Nationalists but also wavering Unionists and her dismissal of Scotland will prove a successful recruitment sergeant for the cause of independence.
With no sense of irony Truss went on to extol the virtues of the four nations being one big happy family. “I am a child of the union,” she said. “I really believe we are better together. We are a family.”
The Manson family looks less dysfunctional than the prospect of the union under Truss. She added: “We need to show the people of Scotland what we are delivering for them.”
Whatever she is delivering, we are scared to open it. All of this would be less troublesome if Truss wasn’t a nasty, race-baiting populist who has seen more flip-flops than Pancake Tuesday.
The Remainer turned Brexiteer, the leftie turned rightie has never let principle get in the way of political expediency.
Packing the asylum seekers off to Rwanda, dismantling the NHS and union-busting is the thrust of what she represents today – but it’s only Wednesday.
Her fairytale economics and promises of tax cuts will do nothing for the poor and everything for the rich, and big corporations.
She has not an ounce of compassion for the millions of people across the UK whose lives are being destroyed by the cost-of-living crisis, food and fuel poverty.
Her only solution offered so far for those families who cannot afford to eat is to scrap junk food taxes – in other words, “Let them eat crap”.
Even her own father – the left-wing academic John Truss – is allegedly so appalled by her pernicious views that he doesn’t like to discuss her.
Truss has just destroyed even the remotest prospect of a constructive working relationship with Scotland’s leader if she becomes PM.
Clearly she has every intention of thrusting her will on Scotland’s people rather than negotiating it, just as every other Tory leader has before her.
So, if you thought that Johnson got a frosty reception when he came up to Scotland, expect an ice cap of hostility when Truss dares to travel north.
