Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2022
- Liz Truss is set to face a humiliating clash with Sir Keir Starmer after having been forced to drop her entire economic strategy and with her leadership in peril.
A number of Tory MPs have criticised their leader, including Michael Gove, who has suggested her ousting from No 10 is inevitable.

“A book is being written about the prime minister’s time in office, apparently It’s going to be out by Christmas. Is that the release date or the title?” Priceless
The fact that these are the people that make the big decisions in our country is actually mental, they behave like a bunch of kids in a school canteen on lunch
Was thinking the exact same thing
First time here?
@@DarkCreed 😂😂 yeah wish I didn’t click on the video
Honestly I think it means we've failed as a country...
don't get me wrong, as a people and culture I love the UK. But the fact that this is how our country is run, and they think its acceptable, is terrifying. If we behaved the way they do we'd be fired
It's embarrassing really, without major reform we'll be a laughing stock
@@glacierfruits5350 No wonder the Scots want Independence, England is a f*cking joke.
She really called Unions “militant” all they asked for is a pay rise to match the profits.
Well said
And in line with inflation
Well said... as a postman about to strike tomorrow who lives from cheque to cheque I am disgusted by her views on unions and strikers... We all want to work believe me but just in line with inflation rates. Not that hard to understand is it Liz??
The Nasty Party finds requests for pay rises utterly unacceptable. The game’s up.
@@Rubbafingaz1 support anyone who goes on strike, finances in this country are too easily mismanaged. Last time Theresa May said there’s no magic money tree when nurses asked for 20p pay rise, then proceeded to hand the DUP £1.3billion. Not even gonna mention the money wasted during covid. It’s been going on long enough. Am actually closer to conservative than labour but it’s absolutely disgraceful what is happening. Started leaning more towards labour when the politician actually defends a potato, 12p beans, banana and a piece of bread as nutritious for kids. Think the whole party needs scrapping at this point. They’re all greedier than the last.
She just parrots the same two sentences regardless of the question. PATHETIC.
gRoWtH
She's terrible and will drive this country into the ground for the sake of the rich
Especially to the first question l, who has entirely rhetorical and a trap she feel into.
"What I have done is taken the tough decision on delivery..." blah blah
wait till Labour robots get in.The left wing media will shut up and life will get worse

Voted for by a puerile electorate. Makes you think,
@@kurtgodel5236 our people aren't stupid. If these politicians can't get enough votes they just import them.
Sick and tired of the government. NONE of them are fit for purpose!!
Thank you
Stay strong.

@@Jack-fs2im anyone who doesnt yell and interrupt other members of the party, not acting like grown children in positions of power. Honestly, who can take this lot seriously the way they conduct business
@@litneyloxan Its an adversarial parliament and the first elected parliament in the world since 1667 .and we gave it to the world that every country has copied

How did this happen. She’s completely out her depth. It’s despairing and embarrassing
Well, it started with the idea of Britain leaving the EU.
@@anthonycraig274 They are risking their lives to get here and out of europe .Europe is in collapse.Brexit gave us the VAX months before europe.We have escaped a 40yr EU nightmare
Because, despite a slim majority the other way now, the voters are still not quite ready to hear the confession of how badly they were duped about Brexit. So we will exhaust every option in trying to make work what was a terrible idea in the first place... you can have faster economic growth or you can clamp down on migration, but you can't have both at the same time of chronic labour shortages.
@@divinity176 Brexit gave us the Vax and freedom. six months before europe and we unlocked much earlier .They are now risking their lives to get to uk and escape the EU none of project fear happened.
@@Jack-fs2im What has happened is far worse than project fear. UK is utterly humiliated on the world stage and has real economic consequences. BTW, the vaccination roll-out started DURING the transition period - I can't believe people still fall for that lie. The freedom to do that was always there. Nor was there any EU mandate on lockdowns. Anti-lockdown people kept touting the policy of Sweden - well, Sweden did all that despite being part of the EU. You have simply fallen for all the nonsense about being beholden to a bunch of rules you were never beholden to - neither of your examples are valid.
This is such a circus, like a classroom of ill-behaved children, laughing and shouting whilst the country is on fire
Welcome to politics it's been the same since the start.
It's entertaining🤣🤣🤣🤣
I luv it👌
Might as well be a circus. Since these politicians are living comfortable lives at the expense of tax payers money, they couldn't care less.
@@aliciadavis8872 it would be entertaining, if it wasn't at the expense of millions of peoples lives
to be honest, every time I get served one of these videos on UA-cam I think the same thing. Do these clowns really get paid a huge amount of money to do this job? It's like logging into a webcam of a classroom of children.
yep the polarity is sickening, a bunch of halfwits jeering and rather than finding common ground solutions they just attack each and score points over each other.
That's a little harsh... On children.
Thank you Simon that s exactly what I wanted to write down here. 👏👏👏👏
you are so right, simon! 8:07 onwards - the second hand embarrassment... 😤
Think of it as an en masse pantomime performance.
Not only Truss who has made mistakes, the whole of Tory membership made the mistakes and the mistake of electing her
WEF Sunak Bot ^--
Yes, she clearly said exactly what she had planned to do; her changes were no surprise. If they didn’t want the changes, they could have chosen her opponent, who had warned against them.
unfortunately labour wont do any better
@@theboystone at least not as shameful.
You know you're in trouble when you have to appoint Jeremy Hunt, he's not fit to run a burger van after a Millwall game.
She was so keen to say the scripted answer, she didn't realise the first question was rhetorical. She fell for it entirely.
Where’s Guy Fawkes when you need him
Give it time still got a couple of weeks
Guy Fawkes was actually part of the modern day 'Clinton' blood line.

Why do they always have the most annoying smirks on their faces with such serious subjects. Trying to crack jokes at eachother “Heeeeeere” “weehhhhhhhhh” “mehhhhhh”. It’s so infuriating watching these bunch of kids run the country 😑
She seems to forget that she’s in government. I’ve never known a more pathetic period in British Politics. We smashed through the bottom of the barrel years ago and we just keep heading downwards.
Militant Unions... yeah god forbid the people have a voice.
I am 80 years old and always voted Tory . In all my year I have never never experienced such despicable government totally useless , get rid of this appalling government now .out out out.
Always voted Tory tells me that you are easily influenced
Did you voted for Brexit too?
Well done for seeing the light.
And the public didn't even vote this government in!
If youve always voted tory, I really hope youve realised that many of the problems the right blamed on immigrants and Europe were caused by them.
It’s great to have a laugh every time Truss talks, then you realise she’s the PM and guiding the country into a black hole 😅
We're far past the event horizon after bojo and now this absolute mongrel of a person
It's not funny we end up paying for this

@@Jack-fs2im are you trying to say of the positives of today compared with the past? Yes life is much easier! But it can be ruined very fast depending of the catastrophe, and honestly we're not far from one if the world keeps turning this way.
The threats are huge, overpopulation, climate issues that can affect us all, wars that could be turn to global conflict and end nuclear, growth of poverty in large scale, out of control issues governments are too incompetent to handle etc... They might also try much a bit too late.

A ' Union ' is NOT a separate entity . It is a group of people who have banded together to give a common voice by one person to represent them . To speak on their behalf . There is nothing ' militant ' about that ! And nothing ' militant ' about wanting wages and conditions being kept in line with inflation .
The militancy comes from the suppression she is trying to inflict on the working classes .
Well said. That made my blood boil too.
yes socialists who want the state to control every penny.every service.everybodys lives
"I'm a fighter not a quitter" well that statement aged well. And you have to laugh at her saying she acted in the national interest to ensure economic stability. WTF. The woman is crazy!!
The next day:
I'm currently 12 weeks pregnant. I've called and put in so many requests for an appointment. I'm still waiting. It's my first pregnancy. All sources online say I should have my first before 12 weeks. I recently got a blood test done due to dizziness during my pregnancy and the receptionist told me i need a follow up with my doctor. She said it's the new online system I have to go on to and submit a request to talk to my GP to discuss my blood test results as something isn't right. Again, my GP knows how many weeks I am. The online system has been down for the second week now due to overwhelming requests and I am getting no help whatsoever. I can't even discuss my pregnancy symptoms or my worrying blood test results and it's just worsening my anxiety not knowing whether my baby is okay. If I'm doing everything okay. We need change fast. We need a general election fast.
I just hate how their decisions affect the public they should be getting their heads together and sorting all this mess out and not making it worse!!!
Militant unions & in the next breath looking after working people, obviously not Liz.

Parliament needs an overhaul, it is not fit for purpose, all these people on big wages sitting around having shouting matches, it's embarrassing.
‘Tough Decisions’ for whom will they be tough?
Massive energy price increases are tough for everyone, but as long as home owners who have watched their property price increase by 10's of thousands in just a couple of years don't pay any extra on mortgages it's ok 🤡🌍 parasites
She called Union ''militants' Oh dear!
How do these people run the country...
Anglo Saxon Tories only have themselves to blame. Had a more qualified, more educated, more capable candidate in Rishi- but voted in one of their own and now the country is falling apart. Well done guys👏
The 'Anglo Saxon Tories' wanted Kemi Badenock. Time to rethink your race baiting normie
@@robmule4647 You all literally voted Truss into power hence why she's PM now. Are you okay?
@@tonylee9654 the majority of Conservative members (ie those who vote) when polled wanted Kemi Badenock as first choice so it has nothing to do with wanting 'one of their own', they just did not want Mr WEF potato head Sunak because he's a slimy rat like CHunt.
National disgrace
Look at the PM’s own cabinet, they don’t even looked convinced by her!
Yes we need WEF actors to look convinced 🤦
We’re on the side of working people! Did she really just say that?
I can’t watch this odious excuse for a politician anymore. I’m out.

This what is called an "unruly House", in parliamentary jargon. It is far from typical. In some debates, there is hardly a handful of MPs present, especially during late night sittings.
Oof, “I’m a fighter, not a quitter” is becoming the outgoing message of Tory MPs
Where is the professionalism in such a system where people cheer and yell over to interlocutors. Aside from showing little respect for speakers the shouting and yelling drowns out people from getting the point across. This seems to be primitive, expected better from a people’s assembly. Aside from that, what’s with the seating arrangement. Dividing a room into two sides facing opposite to each other will intensify disagreement and unwillingness to work together.
Also what’s the point of saying the useless preface ‘Mr Speaker…’ when their speech isn’t even directed at the Speaker of the House. That’s idiotic.
They do not spend their entire day facing each other.
On the side of working people buy sky rocketing our mortgages and blocking us from fighting for a pay rise. Just go liz

What a shambles. This is what you get, a leader not up to the job, when tory party members elect the leader. They have no knowledge of the candidates personally and have probably only ever seen them on TV. Rishi sunak warned that truss' policies were not sensible but was ignored. So we have a leader not up to the job, flip flopping between policies and floundering. She should resign NOW and let someone with more credibility take over. But who that might be God knows. None of them seem to have a clue!!!
THIS JUST IN: She just resigned.
