How is anyone supposed to trust a MP with a criminal record? Doesn’t matter whether rape , embezzlement , theft of public funds , “ insider trading “ . The list goes on . Absolutely ridiculous that MPs have the vote on whether they should be punished for breaking the law.
Not paying TV licence?
Our MPs could be a reincarnation of Hitler, so long as they have money, they would be fine.
Let's not forget the Expense Coverups,
@@markysgeeklab8783Let Jimmy Saville BBC refund the robin hoods of Broadcasting
What if they were arrested for protesting political corruption or war?
Parliamentary privilege should be scrapped!!!
The house of commons needs reforming dramatically... ☹
The world around....
Absolutely.
The house of commons needs to go, they work for the royal family look what Andrew got away with
Who does trust the police officers in this country??????
How many years have the people that think they are above everyone else in this country been getting away with this???????
Shameful! Some MPs really do think they are superior beings above the law.
They are above the law
@@3D_Printing Not Natural LAW they're not.
@@nickieglazer7065Exactly & God is watching! 🙏
About time people stood up against corruption!
Jess
Is absoulutly 100 percent brave human ......i stand with jess
I don't think she's particularly brave, but I agree with her on this point.
@@daryllportas8453why don’t you think she’s not brave? She is a rough diamond within parliament? A female in parliament, representing the working class with anti establishment ideas and values, and u thinks she’s “not brave” ? You can literally hear the inflections in her voice and the “bravery” it takes to stand up and say the things she has said. She gets shouted at and ridiculed and is asked to “give way” by the opposition who just fumble and dilute her words. Jess Philips IS A BRAVE LADY!
@@jayswonkeydonkey She's first and for most a rabid man hater. This kind of thing is her bread and butter and she loves every minute of it.
Jess Phillips for PM. Refreshing ethics and pragmatism. Powerful advocacy.
She is the absolute sexist, hates men , cshould be charged with a hate crime , god help here .
Definitely NOT SUPERIOR.....they are supposed to be OUR SERVANTS......what a bloody joke
They are our servants Just that they use the police to protect them The police are despicable
IF WE ONLY HAD MPs of all parties with the same passion and truth of this MP, then the UK would be a better place
And like all MPs, she has a few skeletons in her cupboard. This woman is full of hatred, particularly towards men. However, I believe EVERY ONE of these Parliamentarians should be arrested and locked up for treason because of how they have deatroyed our homeland and our British traditions in favour of an alien culture.
Jess Phillips is such a strong person and absolutely right.
She's just a middle class joke like all labour MPs I can't stand the I despise her and all labour MPs they will destroy this country they will take what little free speech labour getting power we will end up with blasphemy laws to protect one religion I say religion it's really an ideology of conquest and hate
Speaking sense for a change.
Far right
Unless you’re male
More men and women like her!
Jess Philips I love you. A politician that tells the boys club to 🦆 off ,you’re brilliant.
Very bad politician. A misandrist, also.
Don’t be fooled, luvs the media.
Jess Phillips has just shown, there is one law for us and no law for MP's
Might be one of the first times ive seen an MP actually sound like a human being, speaking with passion about something.
There are plenty of passionate speeches every week, but there's not enough time to cover them all. Jess is pretty well known for her passionate speeches.
Jess is always very passionate about her topics and also very human. She is the only MP that feels like one of us. Jess for PM.
apart from george galloway
So refreshing to hear an MP stand up and speak loudly and clearly about basic human values and respect. Brilliant speech.
169 voted against this!!!!! they should be ASHAMED
We're they all men?
56 men mps are being investigated now the other 113 are their friends
Probably all nonces
169 MP support or are r*pists
Guess why.
Amazing speech, thank god someone is standing up to represent those that have been wronged and are being pushed out of sight. She hit the nail on the head with one statement, which speaks to the base inherent problem in UK government .... "Why do we think we are so special".... Says it all.
Trouble is that they don’t get any where!!!
Jess Philips is a brilliant MP. Her passion and commitment to constituents and colleagues is brilliant. It’s a shame she has to be so angry about the lack of accountability because of its so prevalent. She is spot on.
Never said a word about the dreaded grooming gangs,she doesn’t care scum.
Maudant didn't look very happy having her party called out. Well said Jess, parliament has to be one of the most unsafe places to work, full of people with no moral compass and sexual predators.
Maudant is a corrupt shill.
But then Labour are no better than the Tories. Both parties are full of corruption, incompetence and war-mongering.
Cos the Tories have tghe highest % of paedos
czcams.com/video/PnZiDxkwgrU/video.html common knowledge
I can't remember any time in the last few years when Mordor *hasn't* had a face like a smacked arse when trying her best not to listen to anything that's being said in the chamber.
.... don't forget the POWER AND CONTACTS to get away with it!
Could that be why they were so lenient when following up on rape gangs in Northern towns?
There are 650 MP's. Where are the rest? It's their f*cking job to be there.
Being an MP is only one of their jobs
Mine is in the Shetland Islands…..picking up his salaries for his other jobs.
Mine from N.I is likely on another paid holiday under the conspise if a working trip. Cough cough
There was more here than when they were talking about excess deaths since the maxine.
What about the Muslim rap gangs no take about that been happening for year's these MPS are in it for themselves
Jess is absolutely spot on!
The fact that literally HALF of parliament are against the idea of MP's being suspended if they get arrested shows just how insidious they all are.
She's not wrong.
Everyone is innocent until "Proven Guilty"
@@muttley5958 true but if they are not put on trial then how will we know_
@@edwardbernthal160
If they are not put on trial there's no case to answer. So they are no Guilty.
We can't just accuse and find Guilty.
Jess Phillips is wrong, especially as she's a legislator. People are accused rightly but also wrongly and the employment issue will depend on many circumstances.
@@muttley5958- are you really this naive?
You don't think that maybe - just MAYBE - people are getting paid off so it never goes to trial?
Doesn't mean they're not guilty, buddy
Wow, hit the nail on the head Jess. MP's are no different and the rules should apply to them too. Disgusting
Do these sentiments appy to the thousand of working class girls who were victim to multip le northern grape gangs, which Jess Phillips rarely talks about and never is an appropriately supportive way. There seems to be politically correct grapes which seems to be the grape of middle class women and not working class women.
Of course she does, there is grass roots and fighting the high and minghty
@@kathleenpearson-dh9od Grape gangs??? stop wineing.
@@kathleenpearson-dh9od Apart from the fact that Jess HAS talked about them, is there anything else you'd care to add?
@@hauntological I dont understand what you want her to do, it's down to community to protect... Your community, I'm community ...
I for one feel I want to know the names of those 169 MP's who think that serious sexual abusers should be free to walk about in parliament and endangering other women. I feel we have a right to know their names.
Those 169 people must have a reason for wanting sexual predators to be allowed walk around freely there. I wonder why?????
Accused is not the same as guilty.
SHAME ON THAT “HOUSE”!!! 😡 NO MP on any charge/accusation/arrest, ought to be allowed in the House 😡🇬🇧
While I don't disagree that internal procedures *could* mean suspension or exclusion from the house during an investigation what she said about the bar for arrest couldn't have been more factually incorrect.
So guilty until proven innocent?
The house votes for it tho
What world are we living in when sociopaths fill the benches of parliament!?
In the UK
They always did, we just didn't have as much information in the past, so they could lie with greater impunity
timwoodger. You are correct. Shame Phillips wasn't so passinate about the rape of young white girls in the grooming scandel. Her silence was deafening. Hypopcrisy at its highest.
A draconian one where public schooled boys gets away with everything. Look how cocky attitudes of the man boys were after they sat down and she was talking. They proved the point that they think they can get away with being common pervs.
@@dexocube Bang On!
Disgusting mps need to be held to account .
On everything.
That's why we have elections.
What is there to say? Jess Phillips said it all with sincere and necessary compassion. Many thanks Jess!!
This woman Jess Phillips should be the labour leader, a woman with the heart and soul to lead our country who calls it as it is, without all the political wishy wash.
NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW. That includes those sactimonious prigs in parliament.
You spelled pricks wrong
They are subject to a different system of law to us because they retain their sovereignty but voters don't.
That is not what this is about! "Innocent until proven guilty" is the actual bedrock of Law. Philips wants to change that to, "Innocent until accused". Be careful for what you wish for.
I don’t think you need the letter r there !
@@mauricemcauliffe4734 take the g away, and place the letters c and k in its place
Jess in the depth of anger to contain that's what I sense , She's so in strength for hundreds speaking for Individuals. Courageous woman. Well done Jess
Don't worry! Your Jess is only performing for the coming Gen Elect Stage.
What a pathetic comment. You sad excuse for a human being @@michaelmorgan9289
She said nothing.
Sa is bad... well durr.
Name names.
@@michaelmorgan9289 Well said. No mention of women in the wider public. Welcome to the idiots oscars.
Go on Jess!! Safeguarding is everyone's business. We need more MPs like her!! 😊
Well said Jess Phillips. No one is above the law. Not enough action about sexual abuse even in the judicial system
As a survivor of sexual abuse, that was hard to watch
I would say most women and young girls experience sexual assault at some point in their lives. I’ve never reported an assault.
Great points made by Jess on a subject she is qualified & experienced in. That makes a refreshing change. More Jess's in Parliament please. The injustice those young women or men suffer is appalling.
Jess at 3.45 video, may be they were bending over too much like Jess Phillips
The issue of injustice applies to the accused also.
@@fabiennemitchell2371 I agree. While everyone wants to approach the issue from an emotional standpoint and always support and believe the victims, an arrest isn't a measure of guiltiness. An accusation with practically no supporting evidence is potentially enough to justify an arrest, so excluding MPs purely on that fact will inevitably cause massive injustice and potentially encourage false accusations. Once the police and CPS believe that there's enough evidence to take a case to court, that is the point of charging, and that should be the minimum baseline for applying any sort of suspension/exclusion.
If there's concerns for safeguarding in parliament then that's a separate issue that has to be worked out by parliament, and blanket exclusions or suspensions with no evidence isn't the way to do it. We're in 2024, so if there's concerns about safety then I don't understand why systems can't be implemented where MPs can attend parliament via video call from home. Courts, companies, and schools have been doing it for years, so it's not like there isn't precedent and evidence to show that it would work.
so what about all the pedos coved up by her party for the sake of diversity where was her voice then
@@TheMightyHams
Well said. It seems as if Parliament has forgotten the shameful saga involving "a man called Nick" who accused dead and retired politicians (eg. Leon Britten) of engagement with sex rings involving rent boys, even murder, and other acts in the 1970s.
No claiming moral leadership of the world when you're politicians are corrupt
Well said spot on for standing up and speaking the truth!😊👏👏👏👏
Jess Phillips and Caroline Lucas have the patience of saints. Imagine speaking that much sense for that long to so many deaf ears.
Add Zarah Sultana to that list!
"That much sense, for that long to so many deaf ears" so very true 👍
@@legshakermaker1968 Absolutely. More people like these in Parliament we would, in time, have a better and fairer country.
Just another bandwagon for these hypocritical MP''s to jump on before a General Election. Why hasn't been highlighted before??
Bit like Andrew Bridgen and George Galloway. It is a closed globalist outpost is parliament
I can’t imagine any other workplace where a victim is excluded while their alleged abuser continues to behave with impunity. The attitude of the males who spoke (yet men are also victims of sexual abuse) bridled with entitlement implying that they are more likely to be victims of false allegations than the countless women who’ve provably been abused in that place.
oh, another place would be universities apparently
So, we're not allowed to show flaws and dangers in this proposed approach?
@@thorebergmann1986non sense.
The employment matter will depend on the nature of the employment.
Some women lie that is the truth, just ask Alex Salmond.
Must be on the labour benches i didn't hear her on the grooming gangs hypocrite
Your great speaker we need more like you
I wish they would pass a bill that stops the MPs from bringing their mobiles into the House .
Yeah . . We're told that children in school shouldn't be allowed phones in school so why not in Parliament?
I don’t know, it has been used to fact check in real time.
But some need to check out Tractor weekly 😂😂
@@paultrickett7717
Some of the children were fact checking apparently. 🤓
Should be made to stand as well, just like the ordinary joe public when they have to stand all shift at work.
She fuckin rules, we need more MPs like her
Labour are Tories 2.0.
Did she rule when she paid her husband 50K a year our of tax payer funds?
How about when she lied on TV claiming to have personally knocked on a door every six seconds.
Do you think it was good when she said nothing about her party facilitating her colleagues domestic abuse while she was shadow minister for domestic violence?
Jess is a shameless self publicist, while the of interesting she had pulled this contest across well the truth is that the only thing she cares about is herself.
@@Tommii38 some are, some aren't. That's a very simplistic opinion and if you thought that, why bother clicking on this video or engaging politically at all?
@@kiriakozbrilliant ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏.
@@kiriakoz good point? they must be sadistic or something, watching what and who they don't like is a bit weird? there are 2 official parties and most have to fit into one or the other. but they know that, they just don't have a credible argument against labour or for the Tories!
A culture of power leads to this behaviour.
Brilliant controlled delivery from Jess, straight from the heart. This is how politics should be. Tears in my eyes, 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Can't wait to see Mogg on the opposition bench....... if he turns up.
Holy smoke, someone talking sense and from the heart. I thought no one was suppose to be above the law !!!!. She is right who do they think they are.
Jess, You are quality. Bet your constituents are very proud of you for standing up for the right things. Well done.
Jess Phillips at 3.35 video, may be they were bending over too much like Jess Phillips
A significant number of her constituents don't think a wife can be graped by their husband. A significant number of her constituents don't believe women should be working in such influential political roles because of the deficiency of the female mind. A significant number of her constituents think that if a woman is graped, it is because she wasn't wearing the modest attire prescribed by their creator. She might be doing a great job at standing up for women, but I'm not sure all her constituents will care too much about women's rights.
Yes! Well done Jess.You're in the limelight again. Just in time for a General Election process.
Shall we do away with innocent until proven guilty? The accused should start incurring punishment at the point of charge not conviction?
@@A190xx that happens already - trial by media / social media
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 what breath of fresh air! look at them squirming! getting close to home? 😡😡😡
This must be heard.Thank you brave woman Jess Phillips.
The reason why such a rule is required is the disgraceful antics of vile perpetrators in the House. How far has public life in this country fallen?
Like Claudia Webb?
It’s always been there, it’s just starting to be visible.
The problem is that there is a Parliament.
@@b17vic
No I don't agree with that at all.
It's not the place, it's the people.
In all fairness, there have always been sexual predators among people in power; it's just better publicised nowadays.
Politicians do not become bad criminals ...
Smart criminals become bad politicians!
How about Councillors who break the law being able to get away with just an apology when if we were to do the same would be prosecuted?
We definitely need more like Jess Phillips.
_"Oh No!! She said the quiet part out loud. We're not special"_ (hides face) 😂
What does that mean?
@@rossco54 which part do you need explaining?
Haha i respect her so much for that, sick and tired of taboo and formality being considered over actual victims and justice.
You do get that the vast majority of people arrested for a crime don't suffer any consequences from their work?
@@huginnmuninn2155 tell that to the sub Postmasters....

Is that all they get?

Brilliant speech Jess! Well done ❤
A dangerous speech with dangerous consequences.
@@fabiennemitchell2371
Judging by the reaction to Miss Phillips’ speech, I am afraid you are of the sole minority here!
Jess is correct many who perpetuate such crimes feel they have a divine right
Tories
@@benwilson6145 labour and tory are on the left side of a cheek and the right side they are both the same.
The problem here is the laws that govern mps is for them to get away with it ,so what comes out of the cheeks is what both partys are saying nothing but bs.
The concept of Divine Right was invented by someone who wanted to commit that crime
@@benwilson6145 I agree mostly Tories but I’ve met some labour shiters. I blame private education
Like the thousands of culture imports labour councils and MPs covered for in a national scandal , because of their religion ? Just asking
So well said. Of course they should be excluded. They are not special. And as Jess says, the victims often leave and never work in politics again - which is a great loss. Whilst the perpetrator carries on. Same with MPs, who might also have experienced SA, why are they expected to work alongside these people?
Well done Jess. I'm with you on this. We, as women need to feel safe wherever we are. And I don't feel safe when I'm on my own. I don't go out for a walk on my own. I would love to be able to go for a walk up in the hills, around the lakes, on a beach. When I was in work I had to be very aware of who was around me. Thank you for being this up in parliament.
The vote was close. That's shameful and suggests something I do not want to state.
No please, state it. It's needs to be said.
@@itsyourlastrolo I cannot say that by voting against was an admission of having knowledge of an arrestable act. This would be totally incorrect and lead to another possible comment deletion.
I think that though it was a free vote, there was still a need amongst some Tories to vote against a Labour measure. Why they wouldn’t just not turn up to vote I don’t know, Tories are weird. Nice to see that out latest Labour MP voted with Labour, won the vote!
There is a problem when anonymous allegations are made which are later shown to be politically motivated, or just a "tabloid tale"; the legal system in another country already cautioned the political parties against: abusing the system; tying up court and police time; making it more difficult for genuine victims (as yet another year-long case collapsed). So while I do agree with Jess Phillips, if politicians are suspended "their constituents" lack any political representation they may have had, as the court process takes it's own time...
While the media publishing allegations and names of those accused, before charges are brought; I don't believe should be allowed.
It's a thorny problem: abuse and also abuse of the system; MPs being treated as above the law; at least the problem has been highlighted, so I support Jess.
I think that says everything about a lot of our MP's.
Absolutely brilliant, Jess. Well said. Keep on fighting on behalf of victims.
Good to see Mordaunt, as always, looking like she'd rather be anywhere else than listen to what is being said on the opposite benches.
Holly Lynch needs to be more vocal whereas Mogg needs to stop interjecting simply to admire the sound of his own voice.
Especially Mogg. Surprised he was even there.
@@associationar-terre5473 He probably had a spare hour off from his job at GBeebies.
It’s disgusting and disturbing to think that these politicians are getting away with this behaviour they should not be allowed to be in office
Well said Jess keep up the good work
Rotten , drain the swamp!!
Guy Fawkes tried that, didn't end well for him.
Right there with you Jess Phillips, I did not pledge to defend this realm and the crown for most of my Adult life to have some snake in the grass get away with physical assault and r*pe. ANYONE who breaks the law in government should loose the privileges of that position they held and be arrested, not flaunted in front of their victims.
Well done for speaking up ❤️
It needs to be innocent until proven guilty.
Once they are proven guilty,throw them in jail.
The tory dudes standing up and being like but we are special and we should be able to get away with things.
dont forget they have laws where they can lie with impunity, they think they are untouchable.
Worse than you think in the UK. All of those creatures get away with what Miss Philips is referring.
To give the devil his due and to perform an ad-hoc reductio ad obsurdum. If jess's proposal of removal from parliament of MP's at the point of arrest were to be adopted it really wouldn't take much imagination to come up with a multitude of ways to get MPs falsely arrested. The police are by and large complete retards and they arrest and charge innocent people all day everyday. You could affect the outcome of important votes for example by organising strategic and vexatious complaints. I fear the medicine may be worse than the illness?
Don't do this down party lines blue tie red tie they are a bunch of criminals
Yeah but..... Labour would still accept those Tory dudes into their ranks and parade them around triumphantly if they chose to defect 🤣😂😂
I emailed my MP Richard Graham this morning to ask why he voted against this bill
Maybe he is a rapist.
it would be interesting to see if you get a response
The problem is people are arrested all the time. That doesn't mean you're guilty of a crime, that is determined by the subsequent investigation. Only when there's sufficient evidence you are charged but you're still not guilty until proven in court.
What I find disturbing is the insinuation and presumption of guilt just because you're arrested. This isn't right, regardless who it is.
The ones who vote against this bill should have their laptops seized .how do you find out who voted against this
@@JB_inks yes but anywhere else you would be suspended and removed pending investigation, that is not happening
Superb. Thank god for people like Jess who still find the resolve to fight against the odds stacked against them, to fight for others who have found themselves buried by the odds with no fight left.
You can hear the emotion & fear in her voice, well done Jess for speaking out against your peers, That couldn't have been easy.
It's just a pity that only a fraction over half the MPs turned up to vote nevermind take part in the debate. As I understand it, in other areas of life when someone is acused of some henous crime they are suspended upon arrest. I fail to understand why so many would vote against a proposed ruling such as this.
A majority of 1, ONE MP.
ban all the ones who break their manifesto pledges while you're at it!!
Thank you Joe for sharing this and thank you Jess for speaking on behalf of these people
So true its disgusting what monsters get away with in that place
Thank you Jess, yet again for speaking up for the those survivors victimised by sxual predators.
Is it any wonder when these are our representatives, that there is no justice, barely any consequences for those committing these crimes.
Wow. Well done Jess. I had no idea about this, and feel she has a very strong point.
Jess Phillips is spot on here!
Well said Jess. I love that woman.
More MPs like Jess Phillips please and fewer MPs like Jacob Rees Mogg.
She is right
Thank you for showing that MPs have a passion and drive for something that needs to be called out.
On a mlnor note of the superior beings in parliament why should they be allowed to be under the influence of any alcohol while discharging their duties for their constituents knowing that scientifically effects their judgement
Well said Jess!I bloody love this woman!
So well said.
Non labour supporter: Absolutely astonishingly powerful woman, argument and logic, she should be held up as an example of how an MP should act, well done Jess!
Absolute dribble. Logic? Defining anyone who claims to be a victim, as a victim, without a single shred of due diligence? Even though doing so, could ruin someone's life, and before they've been allowed to utter a word in their defence? Please tell me you do not hold any position of responsibility.
Like when she laughed when the topic of men's mental health came up? Yeah real upstanding C U Next Tuesday
Sorry for safeguarding allegations a victim is a victim until proved otherwise and the perpetrator is innocent until proven guilty but it is perfectly acceptable to suspend someone while that investigation takes place.
@@flabbybum9562 Are you Rees Mogg in disguise?
@@tonywilson8681 You think defending medieval rights given to ordinary people, such as presumption of innocence, right to a fair trial, no punishment without law, are political toys? These are rights held by the poor and powerless against the wealthy and privelged. They were won at huge cost.
Well said Jess.
She's such an important MP - more like her please
That woman has a valid point. She's a great fighter for what is right for people
I joined Labour because of Jess, I was gutted when she pulled out of the leadership race a couple of years back. Shes not perfect and admits that, but she is passionate about doing what she feels is right.
To be fair, Jess is best suited to being a back bencher. That way she's free to campaign about what she really cares about without having to tow the party line. I couldn't imagine her being an effective leader though.
Jess actively campaigns to make sure her own party didn't win, not just one, but in TWO elections!
So she might be talking some sense for once in this case, but she's not a trustworthy person at all!
She's right . Nobody should be above the law . If an MP commits a crime they should be arrested . simple .
Er! In the UK under our Justice System nobody is above the Law. However you shouldn't make smearing allegations without the evidence to support them.
I stand Full Square behind this Strong Woman

I couldn't agree with you more Alex. The 3 replies to Alex's post concern me quite a bit. Do none of you have the presence of mind, decency or maturity to realise that this is a very serious subject matter that Jess Phillips is addressing? PoliticsJOE surely deserves better contribution than this.
