Rishi Sunak has now been selected as Britain's next PM, but with the lifespan of the UK's leaders slipping, can he stay in number 10 longer than Truss? And if he can... what will he actually be able to do with that power?

title is wrong: Rishi Sunak Becomes Prime Minister... but can he outlast another lettuce?*
I heard those lettuces are pretty resilient, and widely liked.
Let the Lettuce Games begin again!
I don't think we will need another lettuce.
Alright, someone pop to Asda...

Can I just say that having our leaders constantly change like a game of musical chairs is probably not very stabilizing for the country.
It's actually a good thing long-term. It means incompetent or evil people won't last long and consolidate power. That's much better than ending up with a wannabe-autocrat (cough cough Trump)
Captain Obvious
@@neyte7313 But UK will suffer as economy worsen and political became unrest
I agree, but we certainly couldn't stick with Boris or Liz. Hopefully things will be a bit more stable now.
Be happy, your next one will be from the Islam cult.
Tories will go through every Conservative member as PM before calling for general elections
Bold of you to assume they would go only once for each one.
Bojo had a serious chance of being reelected this round, what stops them from trying every member and than doing it all over again?
Not really, they will repeat going through the whole Conservative faction again otherwise the general election would be their downfall.
Fun fact : liz truss served under 2 monarchs
@@bishnoi969 just imagine.
So many prime ministers the past century served under the SAME monarch, yet here is truss casually serving under two monarchs.
@@bishnoi969 Shortest go at PM, but the only person alive who's served under two monarchs.
Also also, PS: if tax money goes to the royal family, the monarchy should be abolished.
As a brit this entire situation is absolutely mentally exhausting đźâđš
Though I see the future of the UK as bleak and dull, I wish all the best to the British people and hope the future generations live in peace and prosperity.
The UK could do a Belgium and have no government for years. Or a France/Sweden/Italy and vote for extreme parties. Or a US and get a certified moron, or a Russia, or Saudi Arabia etc etc. Things could be better, but things could be a whole lot worse. Get a life.
As an American, this whole thing is đżđżđżThe brits, making us look great again.
I think that your situation is, above anything, completely unacceptable from the point of view of democratic principles. Tories nominate 2nd PM without broader mandate (elected by miniscule minority of people), despite that polls show vast discontent with the party... I'd have thought that general election was assured, especially after 2 consecutive governments' complete failures.
Even from the Tory party's perspective, I think that elections, departure to opposition, dealing with the internal issues at ease and later re-emerging as reformed party would do a lot more good than trying to cling on to every month of power. They only make things worse for themselves. I have no idea what do they fear; that Labour government would undo Brexit? Of course not (not that it'd be a bad idea but unfortunately, it won't happen).
@@kayrosis5523 so this is what trump meant by "make America great again" đ
The malicious compliance of the team letting Rishi look in the slightly off direction is the most British thing of the week.

heartbreaking to lose a podcast title like "Truss Issues" ;'(
Coming up: _"Too-Sunak",_ a podcast about the Conservatives short-term memory pertaining their unpopular candidates.
Coming up soon: "Rishi business", a podcast on the economic policies of the richest MP in history who became PM.
I vote "the big rissue" that was mentioned by another commentor
Get Rishi or Die Trying?
Honestly, at this point i feel like the only way for british politics to get some trust from the people would be new elections. This would probably also mean a catastrophic result for the tories, but that's to be expected after that BS they did the last couple of years.
Philip: only in the last couple of years, are you sure ?
Couple of years or decade?
Just withdrew my profits a week ago, it was so shocking when I withdrew $32,450 knowing I invested $3,000. I wish I could reinvest but, too much bills đ©
Long term investment is the best now. I invested $6,500 in March last year with Mr Charles Wilson and I top up my trade with $500 every week. Now I'm having over $147,000 on my dashboard. Toping up your trade is really important
Elections are pointless when most people have no one to vote for who even comes close to representing thier views.
"Itâs the beginning of the Sunak era" - The Press.
Has everyone had collective amnesia over the last 3 years? Who was chancellor during Johnson's reign?
This isn't a reset, this is - once again - a continuation project.
Think the last few months show that there needs to be huge reform within Parliament in how situations like this are dealt with. There should be a clause that a GE is triggered if a PM does not serve their mandate/term and resigns before the election cycle is complete.
Why?
Liz only resigned because it was possible to have a leadership contest. If we say resignations trigger GEs then parties will keep their leaders in place even if they're not doing anything.
He is a paid-up Blairite, just like Starma. There is no meaningful difference between the candidates for the upcoming elections. I hope you like this one flavour of ice cream, 'cause that's all there is.
Yeah but its the better timeline, Truss was genuinely delusional. Sunak predicted everything that would happen with the economy if ahe pulled her libertarian bullshit.
As a Portuguese, I have to agree with you.
This kind of PM swapping over and over with no GE is something that wouldn't be possible in Portugal. You voted for a party, but also for a specific PM and a Government project, not just the party itself.
A few years back when DurĂŁo Barroso was Portugal's PM and resigned to go to the European Comission, a party member stepped up for the job: it was a disaster, and not even a year after, the President dissolved Parliament, and GE ensued. Both he and his party were kicked out.
Fast forward half a dozen years, and another PM generated a serious crisis, worsened by the Sub Prime collapse. He was forced to resign, and GE ensued. Both he and his party were kicked out.
What I see in Britain right now is a political system that is constantly giving a blank check to a party, that repeatedly screws things up, again and again. If the British people think that's a fair system, well...
BoJo was essentially saying I have so many MP supporters you just haven't heard of them becuase they live in Canada, seriously I'm not making it up
"they go to a different school"
I heard "I have the best nominations. YUUGE supporters. Easily a 1000 MPs begged me to run."
I'm just hoping Sunak calling out Truss' bullshit also means he knows what to do now
How haven't you people woken up yet, we are being run by globalist which have ZERO interest in us, Labour and Tories are 2 sides of an ass cheek, we need a complete new system without any of these corrupt cunts.
He may know what SHOULD be done, but if that's inconsistent with Conservatives winning the next election, he may be out by Ash Wednesday.
Truss was voted in by the members Sunak has been rejected by the party members and appointed like a monarch without any vote in any shape or form.

âLast week in British politicsâ would be a good new name for the podcast
Will it be a feast or a Sunak?
Do you mean it as the last week from todays perspective, or the last week ever?
@@noldo3837 - when I read âJordan Lesterâs comment, I thought exactly the same thing. From a grammatical point of view, it cannot be the last week ever, because in that case, it would have been âlast week, in British politicsâ (mind the comma) instead of âlast week in British politicsâ, but yeah, I take it Brits feel a bit as if they were in the apocalypse, because, ⊠well ⊠they ⊠kind of _are._

*AS A BRIT* I am super proud that we have a brown PM and we all HATE HIM for being rich and a Tory, and not cos he is brown... PROGRESS...
âElectedâ is doing a lot of heavy lifting in Sunakâs statement
The electors being his fellow MPs.
It's pretty symbolic that the last man standing is someone so practiced at being inoffensive that his height of exhuberance in his victory speach talking about the opportunity of a lifetime looked like a half hearted shrug.
I did not perceive that as a half-hearted shrug at all. I perceived it as someone, who under ordinary circumstances, would have displayed elation at the opportunity, but he had a grim countenance because he knew what he was getting himself to.
Yep. Evidence if any were needed (take note white supremacists) that he is a Brit for sure
Podcast name suggestion: Rishi Business or Rish-ky Business (play on 'Risky Business', also sounds like Sean Connery saying it lol)
Being a PM in UK is sure a Risky Business nowdays đđđ I'll be glad if the title is Rishky Buisness
"Boris Johnson pulled out at the last minute" - there's a first time for everything
As a male I cannot judge, but I do not understand how any sapient being could let this mop-headed hog-shaped unfunny clown on itself...
"The EU is undemocratic, we vote to leave" (UK proceeds to leave)
Result: In the immediate aftermath the UK-population gets saddled with half a dosen unelected leaders.
It's be a funny joke if it wasn't so sad.
The EU is undemocratic. Rishi Sunak being crowned in an internal coup is horrible, and the fact you now have two parties that are exactly the fucking same is also horrible. However that doesnât somehow make the EU into an institution where the member states with their own democratically elected governments have a say over their own internal affairs without having an unelected foreign power that doesnât represent them claim they know better. If you arenât Germany or France, you have no power over the EU Parliament. And if youâre a citizen of the EU, you didnât vote for Ursula von der Leyen.
Also, Sunak is your only unelected leader. Your system in Britain means that you elect MPs to represent one constituency, and the leader of the party with the most seats becomes the PM. The country doesnât directly elect a Prime Minister, thatâs just not how it works and you damn well know it. You elected the Conservative Party in 2019, and Boris Johnson was elected by the Conservative Party to be its leader. He resigned and Liz Truss was elected to be the new party leader and therefore the new PM. You canât claim that she wasnât democratically elected, because she was by your party system, and if this was happening under the nearly identitical Labour Party then you wouldnât be complaining because itâd be âyour guyâ in charge regardless of whether or not the entire population elected that partyâs leader.
The problem is Sunak throwing an internal coup and being crowned unopposed, because the tables were tilted so that no other candidate but him could be put on the ballot. Because if put to the ballot, Sunak would once again lose because he is unpopular.
@@m.ostrowski2031 Well that's a pantload and a half. EU member states didn't have to do jack that they didn't want to, and MEPs are elected representatives who *elect* their own leadership. The "unelected" "bureaucracy" canard has started doing the rounds since the "sovereignty" lie has been ruthlessly mocked whenever some clown dared to try it on and rightly so.
@@m.ostrowski2031 labour is not nearly identical to the Conservatives. Fiscally and socially they have very different views.
@@m.ostrowski2031 flag explains it
@@m.ostrowski2031
In what way is the EU more or less democratic than your average parliamentary system?
(And I'd argue that it's definitely not less democratic than the British first-past-the-post electoral system, or the not-quite autonomous devolved parliaments of the "lesser" UK countries).
Please elaborate. Simply stating that Ursula Van Der Leyen wasn't elected isn't enough, as in principle anyone can be invited to join a cabinet in a democracy, even if they didn't get the votes.
A lettuce outlasted Truss, maybe a Radish will outlast Rishi?
Less trust for Lizz Truss, is a more Rigid salary with Rishi Sunak
đđđđđ
If he can mustard up the courage and beet Truss...
He likes to see himself as rich and smooth but I don't see him outlasting a bar of Galaxy
His priorities should not be about unifying the party, that would be a benefit of any success during his tenure. Instead, he has other challenges: economic, monetary, fiscal discipline, geo-political, environmental, health, trade, energy and much more.
Wouldnât unifying the party making sure people are on the same page make all that easier?
Unify the party or fix the economy. Pick one. The Cons are too divided and filled with lunatic ideologues to join together under anything other than complete bullshit.
Rishi Sunak Unite The Conservabroken Party Challenge 2022 (Difficulty IMPOSSIBLE)
@@MrOlleyOlley united on the surface is just useless better be harsh and disciplined but with sure results
@@MrOlleyOlley If the party's unity doesn't lead to benefits for the general public, then the party should not be unified. PMs are not meant to serve the party, but the people. There are Tories who advocate for things against the general public's interest and the last thing Sunak should do is cater to them.
Until we see who he puts into his cabinet we won't know whether he's utterly despicable or just very despicable.
Liz Truss - Defence Secretary. Boris Johnson - Home Secretary. Suella Braverman - Foreign Secretary. Sunak will appoint himself as Exchequer.
@@soupwizard I have to think he made some sort of deal with boris to get him to drop out, so i wouldn't be surprised to see him on the cabinet
who cares?
Ronnie Pickering at The Ministry of Transport
why do you assume he will be despicable?
"Won" is an interesting term to use, as there was no contest. They made very sure the membership didn't get a say, as he would have lost to both Johnson and Mordaunt.
As a PM with no public mandate (even less than Truss), as well as being a former Chancellor with no-one to blame but himself for the tanked economy, he's the Conservative version of Gordon Brown. With that, and the census figures likely to blow apart the Conservatives reputation for being the "firm on immigration" party, he's toast.
An alternate way to look at is the guy who came in 2nd place seven weeks ago in the party membership election replaced the (now resigned) 1st place winner, so he was the product of a small election (vs a more fair general election)
That's my beef. He got many things right including Brexit calling out Truss'crazy economic proposals. He did showed a trait of leadership when he decline to join her unfunded tax cuts, although it would have made his life easier. However, Rishi was not elected. Not even by his own party members. Just the parliamentary block selected him.. He actually lost the party leadership election two months ago. Some compare Rishi to Obama's 2008's election. Nonsense!!đ€Šđœââïž Obama was elected. After a brutal Democratic primary campaign which more than 30 million people voted in, he was tapped by them to contest the general election, which he won handily. ... Meanwhile, Rishi was selected by his colleagues to lead them. That's like selecting a state Speaker (leader of a party inside a legislature). ___ He would never had won with the members of the party. đ€·đŸââïž ... UK is not the USA. It's an old world nation built on ethno-national foundation. Poor Rishi, he doesn't get it. ___ *The MPs should have picked Penny!!* People can relate to her. She's hard to hate. Eloquent and intelligent. Just look at her sign language speech in Parliament and how she deals with hecklers. Impressive. (BTW, I'm not white).đđŸââïž
@@HusseinDoha I do agree with you, Sunak has not have what it takes to connect with the ordinary people, hes wooden, his stunt with the car and coke fell flat, his admission he diverted money earmarked for poor urban areas to weathlier ones was a real disaster and this won't be forgiven by the voters. There's nothing so ridiculous as a man wealthier than the king governing people who are struggling to buy food and heat themselves, yet the mps crowned him as the best they have, its not going to end well for him, his party or us
@@HusseinDoha They're holding their cards in a way, the only way to save this country is to use unpopular measures which come at the cost of higher unemployment so it's better to put Rishi incharge of it so he takes all the blame and labor win.
After labor win and if they didn't do a great job while in power the conservatives will use a more "ideal easily votable candidate" to win another election.
Mandate was given to Conservatives, so they can choose whoever they want as their leader and PM

@@actuallyneon 3:30 skeptical is spelt incorrectly, and 5:40 there's a pretty bad typo.
my simple, yet elegant podcast title suggestion would be "the podcast formerly known as truss issues"
Considering that Truss couldn't outlast a lettuce, the bar has been set really, really low for Sunak đ
If he fumbles this, that really is a shame. Imagine getting served a volleyball softly... and it still smacks you in the face.
But his game and his belief in self is real. He did know what was going to happen and didn't the accept position offered by Lizz truss . He believed in himself, he knows what he wants that's what a leader needs .
Thanks for the update guys. Love all your channels. Thank you.
I'm glad he got it by default. The members messed it up last time. I wouldn't trust them with a barge pole.
The Tories are in chaos. He won't be able to paper over the cracks for long. The ERG are insane, so watch out for them.
Right. Considering it is the MPs that vote down PMs it makes sense for them to select them too. Really the conservative members should have no say in who the prime minister is, given they are substantially a know nothing bunch of ultra right wing idiots.
He did come in second place with the members 7 weeks ago - so, it can be argued they did vote for him.
kinda suspicious that all his opposition quit at the last minute, even if they gave their own reasons.

Video suggestion, how we will know if Sinai has done a good job in the coming year. What are the fair benchmarks for his success given the current state of play and how will he be able to sway the tide of public opinion.
Low inflation, low interest rates, positive growth.
Making it the entire year would be a good benchmark for success đ€·ââ
@@roqsteady5290 The measurable metrics would be: inflation in the price of food and electricity is at 0% or lower relative to prices in September 2022, interest rates on mortgages for first time homebuyers are less than 6% per year.
The point of the metrics should be to make sure that the poorest Brits are better off, as opposed to just making the economy as a whole better off (which can result in the rich taking a bigger slice of the pie and workers not getting any better off in their material wealth).
The last metric would be in Rishi avoiding the corporate push towards privatized healthcare.
A new challenger approaches the lettuce.
Sunak is a former employee of Deutsche Bank, which isn't known for hireing idiots. The best he can do is using his professional experience to handle the markets and just avoid to further obstruct the economy or make the headlines with stupid anouncements. Things than might just turn from catastrophic to better than expected. This is how torture works.
He racked up half the U.K. national debt as his short time as chancellor, billions wasted on vanity projects such as eat out to help out, add that to contracts to his buddies. Would I trust him with my life savings?âŠ.. that would be a no.
And do employees of Deutsche Bank care about employment rights, fracking, the right to protest, and the poor?
The Deutsche Bank does indeed not hire idiots. But they love people who have an utter disregard for anyone who does not happen to be incredible rich and try to make as much money as possible...
@@stephenhill545 Of course not. No bonus banker does. But Deutsche Bank is so well known for being involved in every financial crime all over the world that rumours are told in Frankfurt the police is going to establish a permanent office in the foyer. So among their hiring criteria are greed, diligence, cleverness, an adjustable set of morals and a bendy backbone. Sympathy isn't among afaik.

I was surprised that Rishi got elected unopposed and no elections were held for UK parliament. It will be a miracle if he satisfies general British public and steers through this British chaos.
Shout out to the MATN squad who knew this would happen after Jon ran the simulation.
Let's not forget the NHS and other public services. I'm sure Sunak will follow the Tory cuts playbook of continuing to gut their real terms funding.
Neat, I asked this question before TLDR did
Bigger question is, can he outlast a lettuce?
@That Whisky You Like nah, i'd rather we leaf it alone
Can i just say. I think he is going to be memorable i dont know if that will be a good thing thoughâŠjust he stands out. But his force is ultimately kinda scary. He is words about bojo are alarming.
"... how Rishi won the leadership election" He didn't, there wasn't one.
Is it just me, or does Sunak's demeanor and haircut look Vulcan. I imagine his acceptance consisting of raising an eyebrow and saying "fascinating".
These videos are awesome- youâve got a typo at 5:45
Calling it his greatest privilege really means a lot coming from Rishi Sunak, considering all the other privilege he has to compare it to.
He will outlast Liz. Liz did not have the backing of the MPs so it was a strange situation where she did not have the support of her own MPs. Of all the candidates, Rishi is the one with most number of MPs supporting (even more than Boris). There will always be some backbenchers who are disgruntled but if any Rishi has the best chance of being PM until the end of term. You need the support of MPs more than Conservative members to survive.
The question is how the conservatives plan to survive the next elections. Because the way things are going, Rishi is set to completely dillapidate their name.
BREAKING NEWS....Sunak has appointed Ronnie Pickering as Minister of Transport ( with special responsibility for Road Rage )đ€Łđ€Ł
7:29 I think you just said the title there mate. Sunak Chat sounds pretty good
"Pulling out late" seems to be the tory party's Forté
Wish their fathers had thought of that back in the day
Probably why Boris has 7 kids
@@user-rk6sn7du4k Surprised I had to scroll this far down to find the 'Boris pulling out' joke
If he lasts 7 weeks and the British Isles don't sink he'll have topped Truss.
As an American, I find it delightfully entertaining to read all these comments with an English accent in my head
Right, that's it, let's make a People's Republic of UK and throw out all the silly politicians
Finally our first black prime minister. This is a great time to be alive. I wish him all the best.
He's not black.
@@gabbar51ngh What colour is he then in your expert opinion?
@@gamewithadam7235 He has Indian ancestry. Punjabi Khatri to be specific.
Its impressive how UK elections aren't that democratic to begin with and somehow the last two PM's where elected in increasingly undemocratic ways.
You don't vote for leaders, you vote for the party. The party selects the leader. It's not the US
It's like that in Australia too. The Prime Minister is just the title of the leader of government, and the parties choose their own leaders. Our head of state is Charles 3, who also holds that position undemocratically. It's different again in India, where the Prime Minister is appointed by the President, who is indirectly elected through an electoral college.
I'd like Australia to ditch the monarchy, and elect our own head of state. Could do without the electoral college system though. That's a solution for a problem that no longer exists.
@@FarmingtonS9 But those elections are deeply undemocratic as well.
Prepositional representation or bust!
Itâs a parliamentary system, pm doesnât have as much power as say a president, just a representative of the party as a whole
Aren't that democratic?
40%+ voted for the UK government
0% voted for the Germany government. Or Italy's. Or Ireland's....
4:30 And I thought Zuckerborg was robotic. Anyway, can't wait to see who they'll select when Rish-kid drops the ball.
I donât think Rishi Sunak is trying to beat the any% WR for UK Prime Minister
imagine a game predicted him becoming PM, it'll be ironic if every thing came through
I wonder how heâs going to make his private assets and investments rise in value. Itâs all these guys ever seem to be interested in.
Biggest question is will Sunak learn to look towards the camera when giving an address?
That thumbnail has made my morning đ€Ł
âWe inherited a bunch of formulas from Labour that shoved all the funding into deprived urban areas and that needed to be undone. I started the work of undoing that.â
-Rishi Sunak, 2 months ago.
If Truss was in a race with a lettuce, what's the aptest vegetable to race Sunak? Given his charm, an onion?
that would last too long
Onion bhaji
A carrot
unfunny
That miniature is savage lol
You guys are right. I had forgotten about Disraeli.
âCall your Solicitor if your Bonar Law lasts more than 211 daysâ
Oh look, he can read from a teleprompter. Not half as naturally as the tldr news guys, but he did get the words out of his mouth.
Podcast should be called Entrussted Issues
7:44 New podcast title suggestion: "Trust Issues" with the catchphrase: "Skeptical analysis of politics". It's an easy SEO-friendly switch of the name.
I just can't take Sunak seriously... everything about the man, from his haircut to his face to his way of speaking, makes me think he is just a Dr Who extra that stumbled onto the wrong BBC set...
interesting? i had the exact same impression about BoJo
@@samuraijosh1595 He seemed more like a comic-releif goon, somebody the villian yelled at and maybe kicked a little.
That's what I'm talking about.
I hope sunak brings out the best.
Hahaha he won't. He's corrupt as fuck
He's corrupt as fuck he'll bring out the worst the pa*i cu*t
The best in what?? His multi-millionaire friends?!!
Can we have more interviews with that bloke Starmer? Heâs so funny! đ
Does it really count being the "First Asian PM" when you won by default in an intra-party election? Like come on, he wouldn't have won if it was a general election.
At this point I'd vote for the actual lettuce...
I love the fact that after being removed for lying, comes back from silence and lies straight away. đ
TLDR always has good "niews". đ
What a thumbnail. Really shows your seriousness objectiveness and adequacy
Lmao that thumbnail is pure gold.
