Liars and criminals
Every day is a shame with you w⚓️s in power
It is irrelevant who is in office, they are the Uni-Party.
Damm right
A church sermon voice, drones on. Hear, hear (Amen)
Why elect him in the first place ?
If you needed no Indian ethnicity PM, just cause he promised reduction on illegal immigrants ?
As a w⚓️, please don't lump him with us
Thalidomide (Softenon) was marketed in 1958 as an anti-nausea medication for pregnant women. By 1961, it became evident that thalidomide had caused severe malformations in at least ten thousand fetuses, primarily resulting in underdeveloped limbs or the absence of limbs altogether. The most shocking aspect of the scandal is that pharmaceutical companies continued to produce the drug for years, and in some countries (including Belgium), it was sold over the counter until 1963. This drug deformed thousands of babies and destroyed thousands of lives, yet it was not withdrawn from the market until 1969
Shame? I am sure the meaning of the word “shame” would have had to have been explained to the vast majority of MPs who were in attendance!
We? You mean the tax payer!
He pays taxes....
@@user-zl8km4sh9p what proportion has a percentage do you think he pays in tax?
@@csharpe5787 Still pays a lot more tax than you do.
He's worth over 700mil.
I should fkn hope he pays more.
we've been in shame since you got pm
Don’t be silly
Well said cortex
Ere we go
WHAT A LOAD OFF B.S YOU JUST SAID
Since he got elected your economy grows but you managed to f.. it up choosing labour
I’m not a particular fan of Sunak - but to blame him for a scandal that happened while he was still at school is absurd.
He needs to step down hes not our prime minister, its as absurd as expecting Putin to fix your water fairly
You will hear about his failures in 20 years time.
They pretend like they care after creating this problem and knowing exactly what would happen... it disgusts me.
This is not an apology because it will happen again and again. Seems like a close season for compensation by the Tories.
And what about the vaccine victims?
Same speech for every scandal , just add or subtract the subject :/
Ere we go
@@doctorpsylus when it comes to vaccine injured the speech changes to flat blank refusal to acknowledge.
Unfortunate but the vaccine saved many more so not comparable.
@soundscape26 Nope, not true. If one is brave enough to go down the rabbit hole, one will indeed find the opposite is true of what we've been told. Read detailed court rulings...
Who will be made accountable no one like covid no one this is great britain
What is Great about Britain, we live in the United Kingdom. It is time for everyone to UNITE TOGETHER and say no more ❤💚💙💛🧡💜
only sensible thing he has done in his premiership so far.
Now shifting over to covid…. Next in line please?!
Rishi and a few of his predecessors should be apologising for the invasion that is on going mainly on our southern shores.
They should apologise for creating the conditions that caused it
Invasion!? So it's just the same as Russia invading Ukraine, or Israel invading Gaza is it? Glad l live in the North wastelands then away from your tribulations Mr little Englander.
Same speech for every scandal
It’d be nice.. but it’ll come decades later
Do they apologize 20 years late because they wanna wait until most infected patients are dead so that not much compensation needed?
Why are y'all blaming the PM?? This incident started even before he was born!
Let him beg for his work! On your knees Rishi!!!
And like always no one will go to prison,
Thats the real shame!
Step right up and get your jury registration ready.
OFFSake
Lost my Dad to this scandal when I was 27. I want the people responsible punished but I doubt that will ever happen.
I'm sure Labour was in government at the time of this scandal though the tories are almost as useless.
Hurrah, at last,
What about paying for the Jab damage from the Coof?
What about mass negligence to the whole of the UK , the cost of living thd whole state of this country gone downhill beyond words, lives ruined
Now apologise for COVID
Remind me, who said something about Russian medicine? About the terrible and first sputnik V? This is truly UK day of shame
A day of shame for government; decades of pain and suffering and shame and death for victims 😢
What about the spike protein in jabs that lasts a year or more, people who give blood, the synthetic spike protein will be in the blood, what's happening with that
Shame he cannot be honest with regards the latest health scandal
When will individuals be held accountable? Look at the post office management still walking free. We need actions not just words
Apology???? Are you serious????🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦only in The UK....🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
Failed or lied ?
Now do you still trust a British government with your health
Apologies and money 💰 really???? That’s all it takes for Englanders to say well done!!! ????????
Next question is how has the Covid vaccine affected the blood of the vaccinated and how does it compare to the blood of the unvaccinated, apology coming in the next 50 years!
A day of shame? Where are our NHS dentists Sunak?
Rishi should be punished for this horrific crime
ARE YOU THICK THIS HAPPEND IN 1970 PLUS,, RISHI SUNAK WAS BORN IN --12--05--1980 --
There are many many others.
A 700mil wealth family get punished.. it doesn't happen.
Such amazing acting...Oscar
Rishi "im so sorry we've been caught.... Again"
Its so weird that he would say "to make things better we will pay out money" like it's his money or something, that money is forcibly taken from the public, ok fair enough compensate people but don't take credit for doing something charitable with someone else's money! Let's see some assets from the decision makers of the time and their families liquidated and paid out
Your only sorry you got caught
This man has blood on his hands.The sooner he's gone the better and all the cowardly MPs who not only treated the british public like second class citizens but have done nothing for their children or grandchildren who will be faced in the future the legacy which they left behind...
Guess who is paying the compensation? It's you, my dear taxpayers they f up and we pay
The king needs to step in and remove this squatter
Mr. Moderna is practicing to apologise for medical scandals
An apology is not going to make things better or bring those who lost their lives back.
Who's the petulant child on the right?
i would bet that the opportunity for Sunak to deliver this address is a PR man's dream to boost his image
Don’t blame Rishi. Blame the others.
Didnt Sunak want the compensation delayed!!!!!!!!!
Soneho is going to be jailed over this? No one, rhen Rishis words are meaningless just like everything else he says.
Apologises only because he has to. Useless government.
Sounds like tory stuff
Absolutely disgusting
How many GB is the human memory ? What is the human memory ? How long can humans remember for ? Is human memory unlimited ?😂😂😂😂
am still confused with this contradicting statement, actually.
John Glen in his statement to the house says and I quote. " No immediate changes will be made to the existing support schemes, payments will continue to be made at the same level, (until 31st March 2025).
And they will not be deducted from any of these Compensation awards.
From 1st April 2025, any support scheme payments received, will be counted towards the beneficiaries Final Compensation award.
This will ensure parity between support scheme beneficiaries regardless of whether they were the first or the last to have their Compensation assessed by the Infected Blood Compensation Authority and we will ensure that no-one will receive less in Compensation, than they would have, in Support payments.??
What is this guy saying?
In essence according to this statement ,after they receive a full lump sum Compensation payment, do they continue to receive the monthly (index-linked) support payment they get now.
Both schemes (by Sir Brian and Sir Robert Francis stated the monthly support scheme payments were to continue for life even after Full compensation has been made.
According to Glen's statement, will monthly support scheme payments still be made, once Full Compensation is paid beyond April 25 or not?
Day of shame,these greasy politicians have no shame,and a lot of the guilty are now in the house of lords.....ya couldn't make it up.
I wonder what was said to his cronies before this speech as theyre ususlly laughing and smirking at our weekly misfortunes.
“ok lads, please do try & keep a straight face on for this one, & no shouting out !”
Yeah well given that you are out of office by the end of the year , this is more performative none sense
England is the worst country going
In theory I like the idea of people who can be held to account by the general public being in charge of the institutions we depend on for everyday life; parole, health care, utilities, mass transit etc.
But, is there anyone in this country less accountable than a politician?
I don't want to get ideological about this stuff, I just want it to work properly.
"Goldman Sachs attempts empathy after delaying the payments himself"
What about data leaks after you outsourced software tasks to farms belonging to your father in law.
Dog change another
So what are you going to do about it, also, I’d like to predict, a similar speech will happen in the future regarding covid, and many many other injustices hidden in the closets of Westminster.
BIG COMEDY AND SAME ON YOU 🥶🥶😥😥😥🥶🥶
hopefully this little demonstration will kick any more chat regarding the ‘saFE & eFfEcTivE & fULLy tE$teD’ down the line for a bit. how are Ritchy’s modeRNA shares doing ? have they finished building the new factory yet ?
Shame on you!
LOOK THE FACES
THEY ARE LIKE CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN PUNISH NOT TO GO TO PLAY OUTSIDE THEIR GARDEN 🪴
Earth Crisis
Steel Pulse 1984
Hige ear deformity.
rishy some ears u have
Sunak is as guilty as others. Go away. As with Covid and Post Office - words are empty until actual action is taken. People are held accountable. Money will never replace health, safety or sanity.
Rishi was child when all of this happened so he should be tried in a juvenile court for this.
@@micecollective7555 was he a child in 2008 during the financial crisis which he caused and profiteered from during his time Goldman Sachs?
was it these dinghy doctors that done this Guardian news 🤔
Post office, Covid...
Days of shame began when we were governed by the EU which is now the WEF.
Try and stay on topic
Why is he apologising. He wasn’t the prime minister 40 year’s ago
He must have been involved in some way with his doctor father and mums pharmacy, he was underage at the time and should be tried as a juvenile.
What about covid hmm? Wasn't that a failure? Deliberate failure? Apologiese for that!
Rishi Sunak looks very much like Mr Potato Head. Pity his ears dont match!!

And yet the same thing happened with the jab, even now it's been pushed after the manufacturers have finally admitted the harm it's doing. But they'll all walk away scot free because the crooked politicians gave big pharma immunity from prosecution
sold it to Africa , its called mandrax or mandrex there ,the men smoke it to get high , billions of tablets we had made ,if it could make women work longer during pregnancy :/ sickos the lot of em - does not effect black women according to the science
