Funny, how politicians always seem so sensible after the fact. But I respect that she tried to create balance. Unfortunately we are in the time of extremism
"We want a Britain that works for everyone" delivering lines like this without acting on it is a bit of a Tory thing isn't it?
Weak,weak,weak,or maybe just a two faced sneaky remainer!!!
extreme measures to be taken to close our borders to everyone who wants to enter? Why would an African want to move out of Africa? Socialism! Liberalism, Communism? Shut up I will punish you! Capitalism drives the most people in. Haha! You think this was the right answer? What happens if most countries stop existing? This is more near than ever before. Many countries after failed economies have stopped operating. They are non existent!
The world doesn't need "exciting" leaders. We need leaders with their noses to the grind stone to figure out solutions to the complicated problems that exist. If you vote for exciting you can be entertained while things remain the same!
A agree..Leaders that seek to be exciting or even “entertainers”,never amount to much more than very damaging..
Somebody give this person a medal. Spot on! If you're looking for a reality show then vote for Trump or Boris. Politically I am not on the same page with this lady but she is level headed and I trust that she knows what she is doing. Above all I thing she respects and willing to defend the democratic system.
You mean get worse…
@@themajesticmagnificent386 I was generalizing, a person needs to have a personality with a sense of humor or I wouldn’t trust them either!

Glad to see an interview where the person who is being interviewed isn’t constantly interrupted by the interviewer,great job ✌️
Getting paid by the hour, not going to upset that applecart
she is paid to say nonsense by the hour.
Are you talking about James O'Brien?
That dumb girl from CNN should watch and learn! :)
*Theresa May* "I think all those who are in politics are there in a position of service.."
*Meanwhile* Liz Truss's 44 Days in Office Net Her a £115,000 Yearly Stipend for Life.
*Me thinking* That's one hella expensive service.
Fizz with Liz
I wonder how much May got for this... I'm almost halfway through and she hasn't said anything yet?
@@sirrobinofloxley7156it's the same
This is the person who appointed Boris Johnson as Foreign secretary ,she needed a course in recruitment selection.
she literally explained why she did it but ok
Pity she didn't investigate the Russian backing of Brexit when she had the chance.
You absolute clown
her fault was to accept to deliver what she didn't vote for
Its called compromise.
Not at all. She was motivated to get a good deal unlike what Bojo the clown came up with
@@Buckets1000 Let's not forget that mostly to blame are all of the people who voted leave. Without their irresponsibility of voting so stupidly, none of these things would even be issues.
Exactly, best comment on Theresa May. Sums her up perfectly.
I don't think it was her 'fault' - what other choice did she have? She was the Prime Minister, her job was to carry out the wishes of the public.
I wish Theresa May would have finished her term, or perhaps get the chance to do so in the future. In my eyes she is charismatic, diplomatic, and well spoken. She represents Great Britain very well.
‘Charismatic’? You are surely joking. As for having her back as PM - no thanks. She was one of the the architects of the ‘hostile environment’ that has been part of UK society since the Tories came to power in 2010. It was in her tenure as Home Secretary that the Windrush generation injustices began. Go listen to some of her speeches from around 2013-14 and you’ll see what I mean. Not to mention her ‘Brexit means Brexit’ speech that ramped up the hard Brexit we’re now suffering the consequences of. I just want the Tories out as soon as possible
@@buzzukfiftythree Red, White and Blue Brexit. Nonsense. Rejoin the EU as soon as possible.
Ultimately she failed to resolve our exit from the EU. My impression is that she lacked the skills to carry people with her approach and objectives. In that respect she was a poor leader.
It’s the all-or-nothing thinking that keep our country divided. It would be ideal to remember that none of us are perfect and some of us are only trying to do what we think is best.
And this is the problem with Tory voters. They're gullible enough to be impressed by an affected public school accent. Pitiful.
She was a person who deserved great respect. I think a better cslibre of leader than most we see today.
Theressa May looks much healthier and relaxef than when she was rulling Britain.
Even with the actual adverts being skipped, those "commercial intermissions" still break up the flow of the interview terribly. I don't know how Americans bear it.
Mrs. May was dealt a terrible hand and when she tried to play it everyone at the table got up and took to the table with sledgehammers. She did her best.
She was a monster,,her record as home secretary was a disgrace...like all torys she is scum,
She played a tough hand terribly and ultimately she represented the spineless treacherous Tory party which has enabled the rape of our children and the undermining of our rights and values.
She allowed her ambition to be prime minister to cloud her judgement.
China is a challenge for Britain, in which field? LoL
I don't have much respect for politician but just as a comparison with each other, May was a damn sight better than BOJO or the Lettuce woman.
Who knew it would get even worse after her.
I struggle to identify anything that Tessa May achieved whilst Prime Minister. Although she correctly say that the referendum result was finely balanced she failed to deliver an EU exit that reflected that result. Between Cameron, May and Johnson our country has been led backwards and it will take decades to correct this ill conceived plan.
Truss was missed from your list and she was .... a complete disaster.
@@stephenconway2468 Truss was in office for such a short time and created so much chaos that perhaps she is best forgotten.
@@stephenbaxter3369 She is out there today claiming that her policies would have saved us £35 billion. We should never forget her and never forgive those who put her in power. It was the Tory base.
compromise coming in when in rcial divide for lack coloured frtom those already in the farm with the werather of distance at the shop or a walk to the street not in fear but the observation makes your country rated moody as yore not s and p well u dont eat a lolt of low sugar foods as well ..as withn country location but yes covid 19 has a different feelong from a family without a british minister second vote stand from nigeria coming in after to registerr to home office on mental incapaciyty well a south african not a jamiacan yes my south african wife can see coviod 1q0 impact in asist was useful in the claim..
She reduced illegal immigration while she was PM
this woman talks about democracy non-stop. looking back in the last 100 years, what's the percentage of wars/killings are done by the democracies? more than 50%?
Or even done in the name of ″democracy″.
Oh, for goodness' sake! Retire quietly Theresa.
like she said, very scary the polarization in America
Brexit Britain is comparable to Thatcher's Britain in 1980s; brused relationship with the EU, rising unemployment, destroyed communities, a broken and divided people, and still run by a political party who keeps telling everyone that if they only work even harder and dream even bigger, something "bloody marvellous" will happen sooner or later.
So what's new?
Yet millions of those poor downtrodden working people voted for her and she won 3 elections
So annoying how Americans say Bore-is for Boris
I'd love to buy Liz's book
She's so quirky. I like her style
Why young people don't want to join political career ? it is you politician gives bad tastes to public service.
To be honest, the UK would have a hard time no matter brexit passed or not these years, there’s no way to be intact after pandemic and Russia invasion. Brits would complain not leaving EU if the referendum was not passed anyway.
Shame Theresa May wasn't so forthcoming with views and opinions when in office. She just kept repeating the same lines no matter what the question. Which has become a staple diet of UK politics since.
Jim'll fix it !
The interviewer kept asking the same questions🙄
I love her❤
15:49 younger people owning their own home. It's interesting in the UK it's something desirable, in Germany not (own home means a lot of future costs to implement an climate friendly heating system including insulation of the home).^^
You can’t be serious with this nonsense, come on man !
a British with 45 day tenure who presented as a fighter not a quitter...
a British PM who fled before promises met....but good news is 🇬🇧 stays survived despite
all torrential storms...
Im not happy on the decisions we make. But its time we do something about it. We are hopeless as people and leave it to the hands of politicians. We need to build a newer system for this county and we are so hopless to do that.
One simple tip for GB moving forward, mind your own business. work hard to improve wellbeing of your people; not busy with politicking with populist idealistic rhetoric and policies. talk, debate, talk, debate, and hardly get anything done
Gratidão!!!😁
Bland, lukewarm, a world apart from a real conservative lover of Freedom , a world apart from Maggie
I think Woodbridge's summation at the end was terrific. He should come up with a book (if he hasn't already). May is just profoundly uninteresting.
Unentertaining, you mean?
@@howtoappearincompletely9739 Well.. not really. I think of her more as a back room bureaucrat who was not really up to the job, thrust into a bizarre situation. She was just, well...dull. I recall Trump practically shoving her out of the way during summits, and her standing there like a mouse. We could do with a few less "entertainers" in politics, but she had no presence of any kind.
Print monies and let the currency fall.
The printed monies can be used to subsidize the poor and reform the economy.
High interest rate and strong currency will punish the poor.
What’s up with this game of thrones like intro music??

Recap by Tammy AI
Who you compromise with is very important in life, may not be in politics for those politicians. No wonder the world hasn't gotten an inch better than a decade before.. pehaps worseer.
if only britain had the idea of converting the commonwealth into common economic zone.
Yes, honestly, history would have been re written, possibly with UK as leader of the EU.
It used to be called the British Empire.
so empire is similar to economic zone?
@@rexalexander4843 No, but what is now the Commonwealth was once the Empire.
This is really a fantastic idea and France actually did this very profitably and successfully by getting its former colonies in Africa to sign 'Cooperation Agreements' as a condition for granting them independence. France was able to maintain economic control through the currency CFA Franc, its military presence and commercial enterprises. It is in the process of being dismantled due to recent development after more than a century. But France would have been able to continue this Agreements indefinitely if it had been less exploitative and its Agreements had also really benefited its former colonies. A successful close knit trading bloc could have emerged if France had been more reasonable with its Cooperation Agreements'. BRICS is now the cause of diminishing French power in Africa because BRICS enable its members to have a fairer deal.
I believe it would be best if she were to become the Prime Minister, based on what I've observed, as opposed to the current PM. Only based on my own opinion.
Irrelevant. In our world anyway. I really detest seeing ex prime ministers on TV, they rarely if ever have anything sensible or important to say.
On the mob attacking the Capitol hill, what about the hong kong riots which was half a year in length, its impact on hong kong democracy and rule of law?
Oh nice whataboutism here. Of course the two cases are perfectly comparable, both the US and Hong Kong had democratically elected leaders and parliaments, right...right?
What about what about what about
What about Julian Assange, Snowden? Ukraine US proxy war.😂
Bush weapons of mass distruction?
How about US mind it's own business and let other countries ruled their own countries and settled their own differences.
In other words stop dictating the world.
Yes..👰
"EXCITING"??? What on earth does this silly interviewer mean by that?
Greetings from Quincy, Massachusetts. Mrs. May gets an A. I’m still waiting for her to drop some cheese at my next dinner party.
She’s the right person for the British prime minister
She reminds me of that fool who returned home for a meeting with Hitler,showing a paper ,pease in our time.
Even the peoples decisions were manipulated and is still democracy?
Understand people had chosen and have to follow their will! But even when in other external investigation showed that many people were manipulated by information that Brexit is better than stay in EU! That is not what people wanted, after investigation!
That had nothing to do with democracy!
System must help people not the old rich people who control the government!
Is only China have human rights? View is only in China because UK follow the strategic politic path of US!
Because US understand that China will growth over US. Just look at GDP!
Nothing about western value and democracy!
Only deep state government control the worlds direction!
If you are presenting a party or group which you said, and learn from western history of abuses of human rights, colonizations, slavery….and then talking about human rights of China….I don’t understand that western still taking about democracy and human rights!
Only G7 countries will understand their democracy of G7! But we have 198 countries and 7 countries control and maken the rules for them?
Wha this democracy?
Theresa May might not have been a great 'retail politician' - but honestly, I think we need less style and more substance across the board. Even if you disagree with May's politics, you have to acknowledge that she is a serious and pragmatic person who was less focused on optics and more focused on working through the policy detail. That's boring, I know, but it's what we need.
Also, the idea that May didn't make a compelling case about why there should be a synthesis between the two sides - I strongly disagree with that. Go back and watch the debates. May made her position abundantly clear, and she was one of the few politicians who was actively trying to find a compromise/balance between both sides. She recognised that it was important to follow the public's clear instructions (the referendum), but she also knew it was important to agree a deal with the EU that would soften the landing (a nod to remainers). I think the issue wasn't with her, it was with a highly polarised and sometimes delusional Parliament.
The future is bleak with Brexit. UK is bogged down with welfare costs.
She went straight over to the US as soon as Trump was elected and licked and grovelled , virtually splayed her self at his feet.
UK is dying before Brexit but it was certified after Liz Truss Become PM .
Your greatest achievement was period poverty well done 👏
I love this PM Theresa May after PM Margret Thatcher the Iron Lady!
Can't she wear a better, more dignified outfit? Do the rules forbid it?
What about the plastic necklace , a curios choice for tv interview
@@niallsheehan474 At 66, she has to show her legs 😂
Tried to appease hard brexiters, instead doing what's right for the country
Mrs. May carries the vicar's daughter stamp in her head that marked her negotiation style. She managed to fake deliberate, and considered, and substantive, in a Brexit policy utterly rudderless, undefined, and still expecting to cherry pick for advantage from the EU.
It is visionless, transactional, and continues to utterly miss the whole raison d'être of the EU.
It was a pragmatic approach, her plan would’ve eased the financial burden we are currently facing. It was pro brexit mps that pushed for a hard brexit; while having no plan at all for the economy and zero consideration for Northern Ireland.
The leaders after Theresa May were extremely right wing to the point of blindness. The centrist she presented was exactly what the nation needed. If only we knew beforehand.
@@Ahmed-jp3eh the " if only we knew " angle ignores the fact that every one of the European and Irish media spelled it all out for you in Britain , but Murdoch peddled global greatness, and pragmatism lost
We had no problem being attached to Ireland Australia, Canada, Hong Kong.( like it or not) But couldn't be attached to France , Spain etc
She never mentioned representing her local constituents. Good riddance for the UK.
No Salisbury, Asquith or Churchill PM could ever have handled the mess Britain made of its secession, and no other PM ever has. Even the 1997 version of Blair wouldn't have stood a chance. Chamberlain is always a tricky comparison. What exactly could or should he have done, considering that the UK had a parliament that had chancy votes on proposals then too. He was no dictator with absolute power. Had he returned from Munich to immediately declare a full scale 1938 European war, Britain would have had a very different standing in the world and be mentioned unfavourably in the history books, irrespective of which state authored them. Failure was in the cards in both cases and always guaranteed.
She is gorgeous
18:53 Practical problems? Oh yes, I also don't bother with unpractical problems. JFC....
Ah come on, she was the first brown nose with DT.
I regard Theresa May as a good leader pity she had not enough time to lead; she could had been a great leader for UK and the World. About slavery and human rights, why so much focus on CHINA? The elephant in the room is India. The spotlight should shine on that dark subject continent. This is officially a slave owning society and a colonialist.
Mrs May was an anachronism. Going for snap election was her undoing, it made her position weaker. Today politics is about strongmen/strongwomen.
UK much better for Sovereignty and democracy now. Economics will surely follow. Courtesy of Barnaby Lane.
The UK was in the EU for convenience. The problem was, the EU was never interested in a relationship of convenience. The EU is primarily a political project, intent on gradually replacing its members’ law, governance and institutions, with its own. In short, the EU required a far deeper level of commitment than the UK was prepared to offer.
The UK’s relationship with the EU had many perks. But are the perks really worth it in the long run, if you’re not prepared to offer the required level of commitment?
And in the case of the UK and the EU, the answer was simply “no”.
Much of the opposition to Brexit fails to understand this. People are upset about losing the perks and understandably so. But when it comes to the flip side of the perks - the commitment - they are often dismissive or blasé. One often finds Brexit opponents denying the true nature of the project: “It’s just a trade bloc”; “Its rules are basically just trade rules”; “It doesn’t constrain national sovereignty…” are things one often hears.
I’m usually quite dismissive of claims like that. It shows the speaker is aware about very little about the union they claim to want to be a member of. You don’t make a case for something by denying the reality of that ‘something’ you’re trying to make a case for. For me, they prove the very point they claim to be arguing against.
You want to be a member of a trade bloc that’s all peace, love, harmony and goodwill towards mankind, governed by simple, commonly agreed rules but with no overarching political ambition of its own? How very interesting. Go set one up then because a union such as the one you described, is not on offer. In the European context, it simply does not exist. You have just described, very eloquently indeed, why the UK should not be a member of the EU.
Extract from B. Lane.
Really? So how is our sovereignty improved? Tell me a single benefit thus far. No-one is denying the true nature of the EU, that's a straw man you're building there. It's also worth remembering, when someone like you posts "And in the case of the UK and the EU, the answer was simply “no”." you're glibly forgetting just how close the vote was. Yes, Leave won, but OF COURSE there will be doubt and questions, given the number of people who voted to Remain.
Then there is the absurdity of your stating "The EU is primarily a political project, intent on gradually replacing its members’ law, governance and institutions, with its own", and then "You want to be a member of a trade bloc that’s all peace, love, harmony and goodwill towards mankind, governed by simple, commonly agreed rules but with no overarching political ambition of its own? How very interesting. " Well duh! How, other than politics, can such a thing be done? And a further duh, when it comes to acknowledging that each country in the EU will come to the table with their own needs and wants. That's how ANY organization works. It's how business works. Much of the good work done by the EU is a homogenizing of laws and regulations. There's nothing intrinsically evil in that.
Then you write "Today politics is about strongmen/strongwomen". Well, from where I'm sitting it's about wannabe dictators who have little interest in democracy. I mean, what is Agent Orange if not a wannabe Hitler? As for strongmen, Sunak? Johnson? Starmer? Are you sure you're paying attention? Biden? I could go on.
Personally, I found your post laughable.
It certainly will be once Labour win the elections and the recent new policies in their manifesto will be good for workers.
@@mynameisnobody5295 Shhhhh. Few in power want workers to be treated fairly. Not in today's version of capitalism.
Brexit happened 7 years ago, where are the economic benefits?
@@Rig0r_M0rtis The idiots have simply moved the goal posts, so now they claim that we didn't really do Brexit because of a "bad deal" we made. What they won't accept is that we are not negotiating from a position of strength, we're the weaker end of it. Brexit was ALWAYS going to be tough. Their expectation of something better was a lie sold to them by the likes of Farage.
A Tory talking about 'economic security'? 🤔
Brexit, anybody?
She's a remainer, and everyone should be now they've seen the state of the UK
The same arrogance as every English politician. As if the EU should welcome you lot either open arms. Decades of bullying and mindless exceptions are not forgotten.
Democracy failure 101, "calling for world peace" without understanding the human conflict
You can say mobs attacked US Capital. But it was a peaceful demonstration to express freedom of speech, the right to assemble etc. by a group of brave Americans according to Trump.
Nobody with an IQ above 50 takes anything trump says seriously
I detest what she did to the British Police Force, cutting their support and finances to the bone was not a good idea, and the U.K. is still suffering from not having enough police on the streets and the closing of a large percentage of the U.K. police stations. I did prefer her as Prime Minister over the buffoon Johnson, and Truss and Sunak.
Surprised she is still alive and BSing on… 😂😂😂
21:30 🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of the worst PM ever. Brexit means Brexit lady 😂
Weak Weak Weak
she had the worst, worst job, as PM, ever, because of the extremist on both side of brexit, a clown in the white house and the uncomponising EU, and the stubb DUP, she always kept her composure and dignity, i think not many would have the strenght to carrie on
Wow who the feck would buy that sheet.....lol maybe if fuel prices go up more and its in bargin bin bin be good on the fire
She is very cute woman. I just wanted to support her 🇺🇸😜🤷😁
From my view in the USA she tried to do the best for the UK
She was hampered by the loony left Corbin and dishonest Johnson on the right.
Then the Tories gave the country lettuce Truss
I think Mrs May tried her best
May was dealt a bad hand. Her undoing was the social care policy which cost the Tories an increased majority in 2017.
Spot on . She went back on the Dilmott report and beteayed a lot of middle class working people. Shame on her .
Theresa May, what an ‘expert’….
12:24
Those colonial thinking is still live in UK😂
Congratulations to Nigel Farage for Brexit. Job well done. Mission accomplished. There's no looking back. His bank account triple. Good luck
Question: what is her credibility to talk about these topics? 🤔
Bloomberg, is showing it is not for Brexit and I think they need to understand we thought the second world war not to be subsumed into Europe so we have our unique identity.
Great interview actually. She makes sense.
Theresa May I love you baby 😍😍😍😍😍

worst PM ever - absolutely dreadful woman
"What are you voting about grandma?" "Oh, just seeking to ensure that you and your siblings never have the opportunity to live and work in Europe, my dear". "I don't like that". "Oh, don't worry, dear, I was only joking; your daddy has a very important job at a bank, so you will be just fine. I was only talking about the ordinary people". "Do you mean the plebs, grandma?". "Well, I wouldn't put it quite like that, my dear; I would just say that the people who don't have the proper connections won't be able to just go off and gad around Europe for no good reason". "But you did, grandma". "Yes, I did, dear; but that was in the hippy era, we have now progressed to the state-bureaucrat era". "What's a hippy, grandma?".
UK is not a critical geopolitics location anymore after Brexit .
It is still a major Financial Hub ( excluding for EU ) & a beautiful tourist destination .
I don't see a difference concerning UK′s status geopolitically from before to after Brexit at this moment in time. Seems the same. Over time, it will shrink as the developing world progresses past the UK.
