I hate how the opposition leader often lets us know he'd also take the wrong positions on issues except that he'd do it... i don't know... in a more PM-like manner or something. It's so depressing to see primary alternatives to the worst leaders also being such uninspiring and unprincipled.
Greek here, living in the UK for over a decade, so obviously I care a lot about both countries. The parthenon sculptures is an old matter, important for Greece but definitely not a top priority compared to other matters. Obviously even less important for the UK. But here's what should definitely be important for the UK: the lack of leadership or diplomatic skills of our PM, because these apply to everything else as well. No matter how you look at this, this was a big and unnecessary blunter that showed unfounded arrogance and political stupidity. Continuing with the meeting would have cost nothing and could bring something for any of the items on the agenda -their political ideas are actually in tune for most other subjects. Worst case it would bring nothing about anything, as most meetings -and no harm done. Instead he chose to handle it the worst possible way, made headlines in a negative manner, along it pulled more headlines about the very subject that he intended to keep quiet on the shelf, created some tension with a historically and consistently friendly country that might not be big and powerful but it's not irrelevant either, also a country that gets to vote for any EU-UK agreement, gave the chance to his political opposition to point his irrational behaviour and probably caused an eyebrow raise to the hundreds of thoursands Greek and Cypriots here in the UK like me (many of which are also voters). All while his party is 20% behind the opposition in the latest Vote Intent opinion polls. British politicians used to be smarter than that, not sure what happened.
Why is it so difficult for an Opposition Leader to meaningfully oppose incorrect Tory positions? I don't understand the big fuss he's making while affirming that he would also refuse to return the Parthenon marbles. What, he'd just be more poised or PM-like or whatever in how he'd ultimately take the wrong position on issues?
I don't care much for that if a leader still ends up doing the wrong thing. Actually... especially if they end up doing the wrong thing.@@harveymadelin7938
Sunak sits there pretending to read his file, he doesn't care about anyone but himself and his rich mates. Will attack the opposition on topics but doesn't realise his government has been in power for 13 years. Pathetic excuse of a PM. Starmer is a leader in waiting
This government is shameful. They behaviour like little children. You couldn’t get away with the behaviour we see our so called leaders doing in any other job
All pantomime and bollox nothing gets done unless they want it done and then laws can change in 15 minutes get the both of those clowns out of parliament! This is our lives they are ‘playing’ with and I for one am utterly sick of it!!!
i was just going to reply then i scrolled down and you had done it for me lol, its a joke, i watch other parliemants in action and they debate and actually talk like adults westminsters like a football game who can make the best insult and more importantly who can scream loudest.
Starmer goes on about migration to the UK Labour have Stated that they will Cut it down to 200,000 But haven't stated How Plus labour wants more safe routes so how many more wil come
can't wait for labour to get into no. 10, what with rachel reeves struggling on £86, 000 a year (£1650 per week) when her income doesn't match her outgoings. if labour then tax the rich ? to pay for higher paid public servants she will be even worse off, but she is a public servant so maybe she'll get the pay rise she needs and deserves, interesting.
While both of them basically say they don't plan on returning them. Sucks that y'all will survive the Tories for so long just to hand power to another bunch of status-quo/ruling-class defending neo-libs.
I wish our congress and senate were more like this. Intelligent debate and participation by all in a rowdy but fun way. How would MTG and Boebert fare in this setting? They'd be correctly shouted down for the fools that they are. They dont have anything like the vocabulary or command of English to even stand up. But they would. It would be a smack down delightful to behold.
As a lifelong Tory voter, I had to agree (gulp gulp) with SIR Kier Starmer that the Tories agenda on migration has been a disaster. My problem is that SIR Kier Starmer a millionaire Knight of the Realm masquerading as a SOCIALIST appears to have less idea on how to deal with Immigration than Sunak.
Sorry but Rishi did ok here - Starmer can sit there and say he met the Greek PM and he thinks immigration is too high - but HE is not responsible and has no power to influence either
I don’t agree. Rishi looked rattled and immigration has indeed tripled and is much worse than we thought at 745,000 .. in one year 👀 conservative have f***ed up big time
He can sit there and say any number of things because that’s his job, he’s in opposition! Are you expecting him to give that excuse for a PM a pat on the back?
The appraisal of many features been seen and proclaimed as greatness is just from that. I have also.been family that served English education and how to make a voice for name change of country India.
Only because we haven’t seen them in action, my worry is they are just as clueless. Starmer puts me in mind of Cameron, he wants the job for the sake of it. When he has it he won’t have a clue what to do with it.
Bias is defined as “personal opinions of the speaker or author being exposed.” Clearly you can tell this video is biased without clicking on the video, straight from the title…
It seems like you've just learnt of the word, biased! How can the video itself be biased based on the title, if the video is literally the exchange that they had with no context-altering cuts? The title may reflect a bit of bias - can you understand why though? Maybe because the general public does not support Rishi so seeing a video titled this way will draw more views? It's more "clickbait" than it is "biased"
Well, let’s see. If someone, whoever, comes to London and removes Big Ben you would consider him as a thief wouldn’t you? We Greeks, having a heavy ancient cultural legacy to bear, are just asking the thief in good faith to return our property back to us.....Is there a moral kingdom?
Clueless Rishi Britain's non elected out of touch prime minister. Rishi the Rich privilege man who never spoke to a working class or poor person in his life.
The childish behaviour against the Greek PM demonstrates a huge lack of judgement.

Good PMQ’s by Starmer today. A good one in a long while. Every point was poignantly made and delivered, exposing the pathetic comebacks

Well, of course that's the most important topic of the day. Forget excess deaths, collapse of our whole health care system, growth etc..
....and the disastrous lockdown.....absolutely right!
Starmer goes on about migration to the UK
Labour have Stated that they will Cut it down to 200,000
But haven't stated How
Plus labour wants more safe routes so how many more wil come
This can't go on, Sunak is a disaster, for charisma bypass Starmer to wipe the floor with him, it's getting serious for this country !
🤡
Not voting Labour, cannot forgive him for his support for the apartheid state.

@tatata1543 of course. But its a much better show than we get in the US. They could at least try to be entertaining. We have to settle for stupidity.

God I wish we had Congress debates like the British do in Parliament. Imagine George Santos in that (before he got expelled lol)
Sunak needs to be sacked
I disagree. He's a good PM.
Both need to be sacked. This one good performance will not do.
@@whoeverthis.itaintme.9873 if they are sacked, who do you suggest becomes the Prime Minister?

As a lifelong Tory voter, I had to agree (gulp gulp) with SIR Kier Starmer that the Tories agenda on migration has been a disaster. My problem is that SIR Kier Starmer a millionaire Knight of the Realm masquerading as a SOCIALIST appears to have less idea on how to deal with Immigration than Sunak.
Being a millionaire doesn't exclude you from being a socialist.
Starmer can actually get work done unlike this dysfunctional Tory government and I'm no fan of labour.
Do you think the knighthood was somehow an aristocratic thing? Do you understand how he got to be a knight of the realm? What a weird set of baggage.
It wasn't for being a socialist that's for sure.
Did you know Rishi bought £300m worth of Maderna shares just before covid ?
senior somewhere else and the amount of people that is actually in parliament is pretty disgraceful considering how much it costs in wages
Britain not so “great” anymore? The proper thing here is to apologize mr Sunak ! Not only Greeks, but also Britons demand it...
the cash printers decide the faith.
Sorry but if anyone thinks any of these scumbags want whats best for this country then there is no hope for you.
Name a quote of Shakespeare
Still playing marbles it seems.
“Grills”
Thieves never prosper
Amusing if nothing else
How much is the ticket to circus?
Posh rap battles 😂😂😂
Born a billionaire Sunac really gives me the pip move over Richest man in the Uk and bugger off!
I bet Onana gets done for match fixing in a few years lol

I don’t agree. Rishi looked rattled and immigration has indeed tripled and is much worse than we thought at 745,000 .. in one year 👀 conservative have f***ed up big time
Sunak actually has the job and still doesn’t have power or influence…
He can sit there and say any number of things because that’s his job, he’s in opposition! Are you expecting him to give that excuse for a PM a pat on the back?
This feels like something to take our attention away from the irish and scottish riots...... ....... .. .
There’s much bigger things going on that they won’t be letting you know about I’m sure. Corrupted politicians
They should have asked for them 1943
Remember PM as being paid at highest prize of science in medicals they do tend to address the works not under patent it is ok
UniParty theatre for 1/4 wits.
Was this impro or scripted?
