If this was made 4 mouths later it would basically be all about Boris Johnson
And now liz truss
Sooner or later Johnson was bound to open his month and put his foot in it.
@@Niemand1947 --- It's too bad Boris never opened his mouth while Cameron was around.
It’s David Lloyd George, not David George lloyd
The narrators often don't know much about the subjects of their videos.
@andrew jones I agree, I noticed he said MP when we meant PM and he implied that harold Wilson resigned by force when in fact he is the only prime minister to have seemingly left by his own accord without a collapsing govenment, merely a change of leadership to Jim Callaghan
Who failed their British History exam? 😁
Who asked for ur opinion 🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡
@@julianaylor4351 same 😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
Nothing about Boris Johnson's frequent cheating?
I mean, he pretty deserve his own list
Well it’s not really a public matter is it? Maybe if he slept with a Chinese spy or something…
Just like to point out the Windrush scandal went a lot further than May. It was an issue dating back to Labour days where the tracking system was updated but somehow or another all the commonwealth immigrants data was lost leading to them being deported despite legally being there. Deftinetly not may, the home secretary resigned due to not knowing about it
Theresa May came under flack became of the links between Windrush and her "hostile environment" policy.
Exactly
Watch mojo: here are the most shocking scandals by pm
Johnson: hold my wine and cheese, I’ve got this
Johnson is easily the most brazen of this bunch. But what puzzles me is, not one scandal from the Thatcher era, when there were so many during her tenure. So many......
Profumo affair
yes, like the sh@t bag Cecil Parkinson
@@bengleiss9416 McMillan was ruling in 1950s and early 1960s. Thatcher era is 1979-1990
It's sad that Boris will get away with his parties because of the situation in Ukraine.
Somehow there's always a crisis, usually a war, when PM's are in serious trouble.
I hope he's kicked out when it's over, but the chances are he'll be hailed as a great leader.
Whilst things have changed, the scandal regarding Russian money and Westminster's reluctance to punish Oligarchs like their European counterparts leads me to to believe that this coupled with Partygate will be dealt with in time. I just wish people would exert the same energy and fervour in trying to oust the Tories as they currently are in their support for Ukraine.
@@FreakinSweet86 Are you saying you want the Conservatives out because they support Ukraine?
I'm also unclear whether you mean all politicians when you say Westminster isn't doing anything about Russian money.
@@Michelle_Schu-blacka No. Supporting Ukraine is fine, I'm all for it. What I meant was that people have been very quick to work together to support Ukraine and I would like to see the same level of unity and support in removing the Conservatives from power due to their myriad of scandals, namely Partygate, COVID 19 bungles and them accepting money from Russian Oligarchs with connections to the Kremlin.
@@FreakinSweet86 i agree
Update. He didn’t.
I don’t remember Gordon Brown covering himself in the ashes of his enemies. Man’s dusty!
I remember his bailing out the banksters
bruh
Boris hair is a scandal in itself 😆
Interesting video. Really shows that there are Prime Ministers who made huge mistakes.
What's that creepy Gordon Brown picture about? 🤕🤮
It's bizarre & isn't going to help advertise this video.
I'm glad that we live in a country we're we are free to critcise our leaders most countries around the world would not allow that
Can there be a part 2 please?
Why is the Iraq War not on the list? Or the Strange Death of Dr David Kelly??
I think this list is more about public scandals than actual bad policy decisions. Of course Iraq was one of the biggest policy disasters in UK political history though.
And the sudden death by "heart attack" of John Smith , Labor leader before Blair
The Iraq war is avoided as it was down to a recent Labour government, most media is highly left bias now, they wouild rater discuss Boris Jhonsons wallpaper or him attending a party.
@@wendyHew believe me, if the media had an actual left bias, they would have no time for new Labour, their wars or Starmer's recent revival. MSM has a Liberal Bias.
@@johnruby147 You are not supposed to remember Kelly, Smith, and Robin Cook. If you start asking about them a bunch of women will suddenly remember what you (allegedly) did thirty years ago.
"David George Llloyd" 🤣
Lots of scandals far worse than most mentioned here, usually involving rank corruption.
Seems like just being the PM at the moment is a scandal 🤣
There is so much material with Johnson alone for a whole programme. Totally corrupt.
Sir Anthony Eden and the 1956 Suez Canal Crisis. Shortly after Sir Winston Churchill resigned tensions in Egypt were growing between the Imperialists and Republican Egyptians. Gamal Abdel Nasser was appointed General of the Egyptian Army and then, in 1956 was voted in as the Egyptian PM. Nasser then fronted the recapturing of the Suez Canal from British and French control
In response to this, Eden and French Ministers agreed to recapture the Suez Canal which meant going to War against the Egyptians, there was the stumbling blocks of the UN and Parliament, so Eden lied to both. The War was not a success and within a few months British and French forces were pulling out of the Suez Canal that was still under Egyptian control. Back in Britain fuel prices rocketed bringing back the fuel rationing (which was only abolished 4yrs previous), and protesters wanted Edens resignation. Harold MacMillan who was Chancellor at the time stood in full support of Anthony, until the war started heading downhill and MacMillan switched to opposing the war.
Sir Anthony and the French president were in the right, what Nassar, an egotistical maniac did put Europe in a crisis, he had no right in illegally taking the Suez Canal and then proceeded to block British and European ships from passing through, causing a fuel crisis.
Boy this sure came out a bit premature
Harold Wilson evicted the people of the Chagos Islands sold it to America who tested nuclear weapons on the island then returned the Chagos people to the island to see what the effects of Radiation had on them... And he was one of our better leaders
Not sure it counts as a 'scandal' but when Gordon Brown called that woman a bigot
But she was
@@candythomson844 for having concerns about immigration?
yep, if that was a Conservative like Boris he would have been hung out to dry
This has to be updated 😂😂😂
Stonehouse's fake suicide was used by The Fall and Rise Of Reginald Perrin, as the main story plot.
The Windrush cards were destroyed in 2009 under Labour.
00:25 the rest of the UK acquiesced to rules which undermined liberties while the politicians (who knew there was no danger) did not obey.
I saw Keeler once when she was close to fifty, she still looked like her earlier self then, not like she was in her last years.
What's grey and smells of curry?
John Major's member!
or Rishi Sunak's future.
That thumbnail gets more pixalated the longer I stare at it.
" Work events "
Good vid but it's David Lloyd George not David George Lloyd 3:04
The narrator did correct themselves however
Jesus it’s Lloyd-George
I think it should be investigated if the king (head of state), speaker, government, and parliament have deliberately withheld from the Police Authority the intention of the law book and the state structures. I also think that the king's apanage (Latin apanare meaning "to give bread") of about 3 billion pounds tax-free should be questioned and whether money has been taken abroad.
Do your script writers deliberately put the mistakes in to make you look foolish or is it all your own work?
I really don't think Harold Wilson should be in this list TWICE. The second yes (although i don't think it's such a big scandal) the First smells more of police inefficiency than governamental.

That background music gave me a headache and nausea 🙄 don't know why 😯
You've missed out a big one in the early 2000s.
Hi pretty. How are you doing today

So no Ted Heath breaking Magna Carta law by ILLEGALLY taking the UK into the eec in 1973,
Illegal how? Parliament voted for it. Labour in power called a referendum to revoke the accession. The people rejected the motion.
@@patrickmccutcheon9361 ted heath "no loss of sovereignty" he stated that as he gave away UK sovereign waters. lies from day 1
@@marksavage1108 lies maybe but in your first message you referred to illegality. Not sure what was illegal. Surely everything is legal if approved by Parliament which considers itself sovereign.
@@patrickmccutcheon9361 Once again, under Magna Carta Common Law, ```there can be no significant change to society without first asking the people via the ballot```` ted heath and the other scheming politicians had no rights without first asking the sovereign citizens what they wanted. so yes illegally. you appear to think governments are somehow incapable of committing illegal acts. yeah they dont have banks of barristers and lawyers going over policies.OH and parliament is not sovereign until the voters lend the government their sovereignty. Its called the ``peoples parliament`` for a reason, although its more like the bilderberg parliament or the WEF parliament lately.
@@patrickmccutcheon9361 I also refer to document FCO 30 10/48, the document ted heath hid for 30 years, they knew it was illegal so had to offer the UK a vote 2 years in to hide their treason. the same reason toxic tony fiddled with the treason laws.
boris should of been on there more russia gate, flat gate the cost of decorating his flat and the fact that he constantly lies
I think it should be investigated if the English state now and then is legislated with the Bible written as a story. The word immunity (Latin immunitas, freedom from obligations to the state) comes from a religious revelation from the middle ages, most likely from a pope to become lawless, and which has since been rewritten into full immunity, personal and functional immunity (legally, cannot be prosecuted for criminal act) to the government for law decisions and actions. I also think it should be investigated if millions of fallen soldiers in the world wars were elected by the people. The political exploitation of the vital ecosystem has now led to forest death (force majeure) and the distance between the sun and Antarctica (the thermostat) is destroyed, how will it affect people's economy, etc?
Because of the economic crisis and the rate of unemployment, now is the best time to invest and make money 💯
@desire moore Expert Richard has been managing my trades for months and i keep making profits every week , made $10,101 last week
Yes I have worked with 4 traders in the past but none of them are as efficient as he is , his trading strategies are awesome !
Yeah sure,I've got 12th winning thanks to Mr Richard , he's really the best , I have made £16,200 in 18 days of working with him
Ever since I met mr richard for the first time at a conference in manchester i invested £25,000 and traded in one month making close to £143,670
The "Iron Lady" is immune to scandal.
She was great leader she had balls
Very good video but you miss the biggest one: Suez 1956.
mojo sponsered by the conservtive paty
Is this guys face covered with hair or is the picture on the front page jacked up? Thats freaky looking. Dude would need a lawn mower to shave
I think the Social Democrats Labor can be a consciously misleading party name with all parties belonging to the Conservative and Unionist Party, as current political democracy and socialism can only be about going more toward the middle, eg. Social Democrats Labor. The reason may be that the king (head of state) wants to govern the people with full immunity together with the Prime minister and government, parliament, with functional immunity, personal immunity for law decisions and actions, even with the misleading word professional politician.
Partygate was hardly a scandal
Hardly? It was the beginning of the end for his government!
Well, it is everywhere but on your planet.
@@drewcampbell8555 Most of the country was on a state funded party. 'Partygate' lol
First
Get a life
Only watched to number 6 cos I'm so outraged u seriously think tories partying whilst people were dying having to bury loved ones without saying goodbye is the least shocking shame on u watch mojo shame on u
I agree absolutely but look at the consequences. Suez and cash for questions brought down Prime Ministers, yet because of Ukraine party gate will go unpunished.
People weren't really shocked, I suppose.
It’s David Lloyd George, not David George Lloyd
History exam fail. 😁
@@julianaylor4351 yea, that guy makes so many mistakes on his other watch mojo vids too 😂
