Mayor of London Boris Johnson delivers the 3rd Centre for Policy Studies Margaret Thatcher lecture from The Gibson Hall in the City of London.
I am not a British but I've been working here for sometime and I'm glad that UK finally has a great PM! Keep up the good work and make us proud Boris!
I'm British we just want people to respect our values and culture .
This speech is 49 minutes too long. Listen to the sound of crap
@va pa didn’t you mean USA - if you aren’t British?
@@frankyfourfingers8913 or you will bomb them,no change then. greed is not a culture
@@Not_Yandere_Im_Ayano ...yet, here you are, unbombed!....
As an Italian i envy you British people who forged a Margaret Thatcher in your people and now you grew up a Boris Johnson....you would have someone like him to lead the right in Italy
Salvini seems to be the only mainstream politician who cares for Italy's wonderful culture and heritage, I hope Italians get behind him.
Voting System. Proportional Representation does not allow Strong majority Goverments but instead you get unstable coalitions of small parties.
Change your system if you want a Latin Mrs Thatcher.
@@henryviii6341 you are right, but to change it we need to have all politician of the same coalition aligned, and may be hard to be in Italy. And also this procedure involve the President, that usualy is a leftist....
Yes, Italy needs a hero. Maybe your intellectually gifted should be educated in Britain.
Always pray for good government in Italy. A culture like yours deserves a good government.
I am watching this post December 12 election, Boris is now PM with Labour/Communist Party under Jeremy Corbin has been roundly defeated by Boris.
Ork Eng Now taken over by another useless communist leader, Keir Starmer!
Make UK great again Boris. We are for you, Sir Bo Jo.
The isn't the US. We've always been great.
How about now?
@@JarodJoseph Yes, especially now. We are leading the world in vaccine development, supply and delivery. And once we have finished ending the Pandemic in the UK, we shall help lead the world out of the Pandemic.
I was living in the UK in the 1970's.
Things were terrible until Thatcher took control; she single-handedly saved the country from complete ruin.
The UK desperately needs her (or someone very like her) again right now.
Aren't intelligent people with academic hats on their clever head supposed to provide evidence, reason and analysis before conclusion?
Iazzaboyce
I lived through it.
The evidence was all around me every day.
Militant union power, led by Scargill, were destroying the economy and had to be stopped.
***** Your'e at it again! 'I lived through it' Lived through what? What 'evidence'? 'Destroying the economy' How? Did you know that previously restricted papers have been released which show Scargill was telling the truth about the extent of planed reduction and Thatcher lied to the country. Did you know that today the UK imports 50m tonnes of coal each year to generate 40% of its electricity?
***** I also lived in the UK during the 1970s and it was a much better place than it is today. For instance there was an average of 1.1m unemployed. Thatcher campaigned on the slogan that 'Labour isn't working' then increased unemployment to 3.3m in 2 years fiddling the figures and creating a chronic unemployment problem the UK has never corrected. Yes there was short-term gains for some as state assets were sold off cheap.
Iazzaboyce
"it was a much better place than it is today. ".
I actually agree with you on this one; it is because after Thatcher left office, the country was allowed to slide back into socialism, which is why its in the pickle it now is in. There is a massive debt that will never be repaid; huge problems with uncontrolled immigration and out-of-control spending on 'green' lunacy, all of these problems are due to the UK's continued membership of the EU and the UK's socialist policies.
Oh my god l love Boris. Finally, an intelligent PM who understands the real world!
@Hurst Mitchell that’s what an Etonian education does for you
@M Paws unless that country is scotland
@M Paws i am, what does yush mean? are you american?
@M Paws btw wtf is that old chap
The more I hear Boris, the more I like him. He reminds me a lot of Trump at his best. I especially like his sense of humor.
A splendid 2014 pitch for the role of Prime Minister in 2019... This should be made standard viewing every night on TV and on social media ....I believe Boris is not only qualified for the job, he is essential to navigate Britain towards its most powerful independence in 70 years..A leader is not elected for his past, but for the future he can deliver for us all.. Do it Boris ...leave first and spend our 39billion on britain VOTE BORIS ...

yes coolman
agreed
coolman we shall see - Time is most accurate revealing tool to every question.
a public schoolboy get a grip of yourself lol
Brilliant and supported by millions of young Brits against the ebbing tide of Socialist mediocrity. Britain has a one nation Conservative future and we owe it to Margaret Thatcher who gave us back our pride after Suez and Harold bloody Wilson.
Sad old bastard.
True stuff Peter........Pointless Insult . Logo no hassle man....
Prof. Harvey Crichton eat my shit
Rather not old boy.......... I think the colloquial retort could be " Kiss my ass "
Peter Clatworthy AGREE
He's a very inspiring speaker. Margaret Thatcher did indeed turn Britain around, when many believed it was finished. But her voice and intonation were irritating to many, including myself. Boris makes just as much sense, but he's a pleasure to listen to.
So maybe Boris is another Thatcher, except a lot more fun to listen to. As an American, I cant help thinking of Boris as a UK Trump.
Don't forget John that was mid to late 70s, over 40 years ago when received pronunciation from the BBC was prevalent. She underwent elocution training and tempered her style with modulation and a softer inflection.
She changed our country around from a moaning, striking 3 day week ers to a thriving nation of optimistic hopers that it is today
moonbeam ahhhhh the great men and woman of our country and those who defend democracy and freedom of speech...... ahhhh 99% of people showed greatest respect at Margaret Thatchers funeral .... and rightly so. 1% were disrespectful to a dead 87 years old, you must have pity on these spineless haters who have no moral standards
@moonbeam As with many things in life, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. The UK desperately needed a lot of things to change and Thatcher was the architect of almost all of it. As for selling off public housing, ye there were millions of public houses sold off, a lot were sold very cheaply and the money raised from this sales was supposed to go into building more public housing, but very little did. What it did do was to get millions of people into house ownership for the first time and get them out of paying rent. That also saw the rise in wealth when the price of houses rose. She did take on the unions, thank God. I lived through the 70's and 80's and it was bloody ridiculous the way the worst, not all, of the unions treated this country and decimated our productivity, inventiveness and investment in our core industries. So we have a lot to be thankful for - however, there is also the part where, in the later years of her leadership, Thatcher would not listen to those around her and, in my opinion anyway, let the power go to her head. It is for that she generates such a divisive reaction. For the record, I think the first half of her reign was hard but absolutely needed, the next quarter was, on balance OK but the last quarter she was terrible. And during that last period of her time in office, I left the UK to live overseas. Hopefully you will appreciate my balanced viewpoint.
@Louise Taylor ‘optimistic hopers’! Where do you live and can I get a house there?
Paul Johnston yes I do appreciate your views, I lived through those times too and much of the hate for M Thatcher came from the unions and the poison the leaders of those unions spread about her .... not for the intellectual mind I believe to take such a shallow view. My family all own their own houses when none of our grandparents could do so and yes we are thankful for that opportunity. We did not buy a council house but houses generally were cheaper because everything became possible. My husband was a miner in the long strike and we did suffer hardships during that period, BUT I could still see that M Thatcher was right in her actions as Scargill was a Marxist and the miners did not vote to strike. It took a strong leader to lead our country out of those dark days and the Iron Lady will always be a heroine of mine ..... also I do hope Boris can follow in her footsteps. Best wishes
Creag Mac710 I’m a northern girl .... and still optimistic about the future possibilities with Brexit on the way
Oh Boris, thank god you’re here.
We in the US have Trump. you have Boris. I think both our nations got lucky, especially compared to the alternatives. I especially like his sense of humor.
@@richard40x I like yours
She was one of the best PMs this Country has ever had. I was 12 at the time and even I remember the mood in the Country on the day she got into power, it went from doom and gloom to an immediate can do attitude.
Thatcher was elected for being a woman. The first female PM. The first female leader of any “free world“ country...oh, how she let the gals down!
@Rose Marie you are deluded. She won in 1979 because of the failures of the labour government under Wilson and Callaghan. She really didn’t inspire people until later on. Really it was after Milton Friedman’s monetarist experiment with the British economy
She was shit
I was 11. And I agree Rose. I remember the dismay. My parents would not have planned (and then acted on) to leave England (as did half my family) in the late 1970s had they known the boom that was about to happen under her leadership in the 1980s and beyond... she also had a sharper understanding of Russia, China and climate change than her successors... acknowledging they have since woken up.. alas they have also become woke... sigh... that all said, there is much that can be done and innovation remans key...
spot on from Tennessee USA
Same here
The EU has been a lead ball round our feet . so now the people have
given you all the votes that you need to make us G.T. Britain please
It will take a lot longer than 10years. Boris could put UK on Right Track. We need to build new infrustucture . We need magleve train coast to coast. We need the work ethic to be built back into the work force. A fair days pay for a fair days work. More high teck manufacturing that pays high teck wages not coffee shop jobs. Stop rewarding failure. Stop giving jobs to women because there are women it not doing Uk any favours. Return to best person for the job regardless of color agenda that the most talented rise to the top on ability.We must take the feminist out the class room and start producing winners again. A lot to be done and Boris the begining of the end of blairite britain and Britains part in EU. Start investing in wales ,northern Ireland, northern England . Not spending 130 billion on construction contracts in Eastern Europe thats hinded from public view in the EU extras file..Our young people deserve better than low paid consumer economy. With the lowest wages and highest house prices in western world. Give our young people the opportunities to work they way out of socialist EU flat share. The will work longer hours and work hard for rewards like they parents and grandparents before them. Give them the opportunities to better themselves.
Well said Sherlock Tarot. I am impressed with his artistic skill, what a brilliant boy. Amazingly and stunningly great speech. May Boris lead a two year term as PM of the new Great Britain for his forthrightness in memory of Thatcher's political & economic brilliance.
God Bless Sir Mr Boris Johnson, Great Speech Very Interesting Word, .... Be Successful Sir, And God Bless UK Country And Royal Family, ....... Cherrio.🌠🌟🌠👍👍👍🌠🌟🌠.
He’s got a good sense of humour 👍👍👍
@Case Nikolas I don’t use that or Facebook, or Twitter on principle
Make sure Boris you do the greatest thing in history and EXIT THE UK ON A CLEAN BREAK SCENARIO -NOTHING LESS BORIS
That definitely wouldn't have been great, or clean. You should be glad Boris Johnson wasn't as stupid and clueless as you.
I think that is a real insight into what a Boris run government would hope to achieve. His personal ambition to be the next Churchill/Thatcher and be remembered in History will serve the country as well as it serves his ambition.
I have great hopes for the Nation and I think he will deliver a great deal. Fingers crossed.
Well done absolutely great conference always mr Boris 🇬🇧🇬🇧👏👏
And so, this December 2019: now the rubber hits the road. - God speed you on your way
Brilliant.
Great lecture thank you. It is rare for me to be so glued to a political speech of this length, but I enjoyed every second of it and I learned so much. It also feels realistic and achievable !
I am mexican and i believe that the U.K. must dream again dont be ashemed of past and empire but see It whit a great proud , UK has given so much to the world in every field , tecnology , literature and beyond reach the world outside europe be a wise power in the world
Exactly. We are taught to be ashamed of our history and it's disgusting. Most children in schools dont even know the national anthem.
Well said Boris.WTO the way to go.
WWF is way better !
Great speech. PM2B.
He is
PM Mr Boris Jonson is great asset for Britain's.We feel proud on you.Long live UK.
When we leave the EU on Oct 31st it will be up to us all to make the best of the opportunity. As a group we voted for it. We should ask what we can do for our country etc. Positivity, strategy, strong execution, investment in the right places and the keys. This man and his team seem to have the best ideas on this so far.
The eugenics bit begins about twenty minutes in.
God bless him 👍💛💚💜💜keep it up
This man has It all,very understanding of our people.thank you Boris.
Margret Thatcher was the true champion of the working classes. She did 3 things which put thousands of pounds into the pockets of the working classes. 1, She cut income tax from 33% down to 22% 2, She allowed people to stop paying rent for the rest of their lives by allowing them to buy their council house if they so wished. 3 She privatised the utilities which ( until about 2 years ago ) gave us the cheapest energy prices in Europe. She was the true champion of the working classes.
Thatcher sold off the family silver. Google it. Short term bribery has led to long term poverty, austerity, and suffering among those 17-98% IQ's
@@walteranonmitty2465 No you have this all wrong. Thatchers neo liberal policies has given the vast majority of Britains population the best living standards they have ever had. Google it .
@@scabbycatcat4202 ...don't feed the commie troll....
If Boris Johnson delivers a real Brexit AND substantially reduces third world immigration into UK he will easily win the next General Election. British voters want to really leave the EU and they want a end to mass third world immigration. These two issues, especially the latter, are far more important than anything else.
Excellent
yes
Boris is the man to sort out the BBC and the EU
My boy Boris, brilliant man,interesting times ahead.
Sad to see that London is not longer British...
I was told by the MSM that Boris Johnson was a moron. This is one of the most intelligent people I've heard.
He did play the " bafoon" for many years.
Reagan, Trump, and Boris were all presented as buffoons by the leftie news, but just listening to him here, is enough to know better. Maggie was presented differently, she was presented as evil incarnate, not a buffoon, although a later biopic of her presented her as senile.
America is looking forward to seeing a visit from Churchilian Boris Johnson.
Is that where all the other Neo Nazis are then?
If only we would have had someone like baraness thatcher. Instead of treason May. We would be getting on with freedom from the terany of the EU.
You got you your wish. Now learn to spell.
When are you going to do away with the TV licensing that would help us all wouldn’t it
Don't pay it! SIMPLE. 📺📺📺👨👨🏃🏃🏃🌲🎅👂
Great speech, I like the idea of A Margaret Thatcher airport! 😊
Now we have Sadiq Khan....hemmm. Margret Thacher was a great leader, the iron Lady. God bless her soul rest in peace.
wonderful speech, mate.
In 1987 the Tories ran on the platform of 'Britain is great again, don't let labour wreck it' sadly eventually labour did wreck it, probably irreversibly, but no party could run on the the platform the 'Britain is great' today.
Labour created the NHS. Tories created crushing Austerity.
Thankyou Mr. Someone. no hassle even has that wrong....NHS was a cross party agreement.... Dr.s; were not paid in the country , they were paid with vegetables and rabbits and people wanted free NHS. Average UK health care per person is £6250 per person per year. Very few pay that in a tax a year...Most tax comes from CORPORATIONS.. then RICH PEOPLE... then poor people most of whom payt next to nothing tax or cost tax......... if you have a better way of Govt...or keeping people busy and running a economy in the modern world that creates high paid jobs and wealth let us know in actual econmic terms no hassle man.
Austerity was kind of ineviable due to increased competition in Asia ...over last few decades..in a word China.
Noone plucked this out of thin air to force on people...... to make people miserable you know...
Atlee also squandered the Marshall plan loan from the USA by nationalising a nation into inefficiency and debt until 1979 costing UK hundreds of Billions of £ by wrong headed thinking..as Keynes was an English gentleman and went to Cambridge they ignored Hayek the one right economist was Austrian.. Post War Germany an economic miracle until 1962 on a bombed out nation on far less money........than was lent to UK..... and people still moaning........ Keyens left a report on Atleees desk when he was PM. It was a total disaster...
Read economics books and shut up.
@@paulod27 Labour created austerity by taking over a well balanced well managed economy in 1997, then maxing out all the credit cards.
Austerity is the result of Labour's overspending..
DHewson Piano a bit of an update, Boris has done just that and WON a landslide victory.
People can take only soo much of being told how awful they are just because they are English, or because they are successful, or because they had the temerity to be born white, or just because they are white they are a racist (this is the belief of AOC and her Twitter followers)
Boris and Trump are the direct backlash to this stupidity.
Do me a favour. Why don't you ask the nurses and doctor. Jesus. It was Labour who started the NHS.
I loved Margret Thacher she was an amazing visionary and worked for the people who were the backbone of the country. I have read her biography, and I admire her so much she worked hard for the country that she loved. I am Not a Brittish citizen but I do love the Brittish I love History and I love Boris Johnson I think he will do very well as PM
No she didn't, she destroyed the northern backbone of the country. She is absolutely hated.
The super rich are only there on the backs of the poor and ignorant. How about a balance of respect.
"The super rich are only there on the backs of the poor and ignorant" Crap!
Towering talent!
I remember the shopping trolley Margaret Thatcher used to win that election. Yes I'm that young. 🤭
Those who underestimate Boris have got a great big shock coming! Don't judge a book by its cover, you listening Jeremy? Lol!
If only we could have this Boris Johnson back. He’s changed so much over this past year. He actually used to be entertaining and he also used to have a rebellious streak. It seems that, that Boris Johnson is sadly no more
BORIS WAS IN TAUNTON.... I LIVE IN TAUNTON..... GREAT TOWN.... STILL BRITISH..... AND I AM NOT BRITISH BY THE WAY.
I was born there! Liberal country.
I'm no Brit. Taunton is a very agreeable town. Lovely museum, excellent countryside
I am watching when Boris is out of ICU and recovering from coronavirus in hospital.
Thank you and sacrifice for Mr. British PM. To supporting the people life in prosperity and peace for UN families 🙏🏻. Please.
CLOSE DOWN THE BBC
Hear Hear.
Shut up, you have probably never paid tv license in your life
Great pm of GB, long live the queen and her people in GB only.
Give people the vote with all well explained and you will win the elections!
A great speech relating to the finest post war leader of this country by the next!
Crossrail ... seven years on and we're still waiting!
The BBC should be abolished
Mrs Thatcher was the best prime since Churchill
I’m sure Boris Johnson will join the legend
I believe she was our best including Churchill. He was certainly the great man for the moment, but, away from the war, he was a poor politician with a huge drink problem.
Brilliant !
What a speech fantastic.
If Big Ben doesn't Bong to celebrate Brexit, Boris Johnson will be history to me/!
LOVE YOU BORIS
We love you President Boris !
Those A- level questions would have required a balanced arguement for full marks surely he knows that having got three As at Alevel himself
What were those A-Levels, can you confirm them from somewhere?
@Peter Grahame Education today is not about critical thinking its about critical theory
"Prodigious Philanthropy".
Margaret Thatcher International Airport
Thank you Boris, that's how I remember Margaret Thatcher too!
Boris is like Churchill he is a fighter .fair play he sticks by what he believes in .leaving the eu.cant fault him.make Britain great again.
He is like Churchill. A tyrant. Propaganda likes to present him as being a fighter but he was anything but.
I love Boris!
Cécile Fox ME TOO
Same
Cécile Fox this American is impressed.
like boris. not a big maggie t fan.
The current Labour Opposition Front Bench is notable for its absence of any trace of erudition, of eloquence, of imagination, of individualism, of humour, of poetry. On the contrary, they present in plain sight the ugly face of the dreary, the colourless, the stupid, the mediocre, the controlling. Today, Labour is all about all wimmins' shortlist nonentities, the perpetually chippy, those who want to flatten everything to suffocating greyness, the homogenisation of society, the artificial notion of "equality", the promotion of "diversity". Were you ever consulted about "diversity"? Proto-Stalinists the lot of them. It is abundantly clear that Labour, under Corbyn, want to insert the State into every facet of our lives. No, no, no.
Finally, we have a PM who might actually deal with the taxpayer-funded BBC's outrageous bias. We can only hope.
I can't understand how moronic it is for people to believe the BBC doesn't have a right wing bias towards the Tories.
I care not for your party label. I care for what you do for the underprivileged.
He is very entertaining and humour!!Thatcher made us proud again.
the foot of the King and my thumb is an inch and my yard is a yard de kerkuil huhuhu
Self-irony is a sign of style and at the very least an interest in intellect and open-mindedness. This is why I respect people who can sincerely poke fun at themselves.
seems like 94 down-voters did very well in their 45 marks for A levels and wanted to protect it
What a brilliant speech. Inspiring.
No wonder the BBC are so nervous about this guy. He had their number years ago
BRAVO ! Boris sir ⭐🇬🇧⭐
HU RAH ! For the legacy of Margaret Thatcher, Iron Lady of Great Britain.
That bloke is a genius
20 minutes in and gotta say, this is a fantastic speech. Intelligent, sensible, humorous*.
Humorous not humouristic
@@kimberlysi7005 ty for feedback
Towards the end he was talking about EU reform and a better deal. What a pity this course of action wasn't pursued rather than the chaos and democratic crisis post 2016 referendum. Would have been a better use of energy and time.
The UK is in good hands now. Follow the Iron lady, follow Hayak, Mesis, and Rothbard, and the UK will flourish like never before.
Bless and bless Lovell iuliana Codreanu Luton Thx for everything bless Thx friendly kiss and sweet day ❤❤❤❤❤😇👩💻🙏🙏🙏
All good and well but what actions and thoughts would provide wealth creation for all that includes housing healthcare roads pensions.

Where's Rory?
Going to the backbenches next month. He's so left wing even Corbyn wouldn't have him.
God bless Maggie Thatcher
Super 💕 man
39:17 "60% reduction in new zealanders". I'm a kiwi. Our grand fathers and great grand fathers rallied immediately for britain in the World Wars and died on foreign battlefields under British command. By proportion of population we lost more soldiers than any allied country.
Yet when we want to emigrate back to the homeland, we get a kick in the face and told to fuck off, as morrocans, germans, spanish stream past in the customs queues.
Even as a tourist, spending a month in Britain, wanting to visit the places of my family origins, I was treated tersely by immigration. I had a return ticket, I was returning to my own home and my job, yet they viewed me as suspicious and grilled me. When they finally agreed I could be let in, the immigration officer tossed my passport back and grunted.
Britain, as far as I am concerned, and I know many Kiwis share this view, can rot in hell.
Boris, will make Britain GREAT again....come on Boris...
I'm excited for Britain now that there's a viable candidate for PM in Boris Johnson. I feel particularly embarrassed, through South Africa's historic association with Britain, of May's lame inability to DEMAND respect from the arrogant egotists in the EU. She should have been stern and uncompromising. Like Boris would likely have been.
I think Boris would make a good PM
Love the way he talks ,soo..full of wit and humour,..I thought Thatcher, was a proud and patriotic prime Minister, ..she was unque...
In Boris we trust
She would have had nothing but contempt for Boris Johnson
"Free Market Economy is the only game in town."
Social Market Economy: -.-
Wow. I love his knowledge. I hope the deep state leaves him alone.
he’s exactly what they’d want
Smart Aleck,s like the Miners who lost communities.
Having said that I just want Brexit done so I reluctantly voted Tory.
john barker e u to blame for all our industry failures
wage Wilf I don’t disagree there Fella and I voted Tory the last time but I think she was a horrible careless person.
