We owe a lot to Liz Truss. She did more to damage the Tory party than any left wing media could.
"We paid a heavy price", he says. No, Kwasi. The British people suffered a heavy price. It doesn't affect you. That's part of the problem.
Thatâs exactly the problem. They are still not getting it. Itâs always about them. Not the people.
Beautifully said its the public who suffer while every year the politicians get pay rises and expenses we get more council tax but less services what a useless government there own citizens being put in danger and treated like second class shame on the many traitors in power just a get rich schemes for these shareholders and landlords whatever rackets they run they are the winners while the public is the loser when will people speak up and wake up.
Left wing media?
@@ohdearism ok, anti-right wing media.
She paid the Lettuce in price, I mean Lettuce.
The Tories lost because they weren't the cure they were the disease,
Well said!
Ebola
Oh no, not the Lettuce!
Calling people a disease. Fascist or communist ?
@@mac7040 the only 'ist' is realist
Liz is the worst pm ever in the history
Yes I could not agree more! Now I am paying my mortgage than my NHS pension leaving no money
Boris is the worst PM too
@@anthony64632 So is Wonky Eye Sunak
She doesn't even make the top 10. Blair, Brown, Cameron, Johnson, May and Sunak are all worse.
@@ggunga7764Cost me ÂŁ200 a month for the last 2 years, with another to go, so whatâs that, ÂŁ7200 over 3 years?
Iâm just a working class 32 year old with 2 kids under 4, itâs a lot of money her short government cost me.
The fact she didnât have the dignity to speak says it all really.
The man who made my mortgage unaffordable. He should be in prison!
You made your mortgage unaffordable by overextending yourself. People like you are part of the problem too.
And still has the nerve to show his face on anywhere that will have him.
@@OldQueer đ€Ą
They don't care.
@@OldQueer đ€Ą
Truss. Zero humility. Couldnât even thank her constituents for their support over the last several years. Devoid of humanity.
She would have to care about someone not named Liz Truss.
Just coldđ„¶
Personality of a rocking horse
prior to Liz's premiership I was a stout believer in the non-existence of reptilian humanoids

Asking the arsonist why the fire started..

Brilliant and so true!
@@tempest957 đđđ
Oh really. Boris Johnson and Liz Truss had zero blame. Let's look for a black person to blame. Not saying he is innocent but he definitely is not the arsonist.
Kwarteng giving advice. Ffs!
đđđ
Gives us insight into the programme.
Kwarteng is useless too
Truss and kwarteng should have been given advice to stay out of politics
@@Michael-jy5rn Kwarteng should be on a zero hour contract cleaning toilets
Brilliant to see Brexiteers, Mogg , Truss Johnson and Gove are all history, made today perfect.
Johnson and Gove ran away to make money and Mogg gets rich from GB news. No consequences for them really.
Good riddance to Liz Truss. So classless keeping her fellow candidates waiting and then leaving without saying anything.
Yes exactly.
@josimpson7999: Thank you.
True to form.
She couldn't find the stage, poor cow.
You have to ask who are the 11,217 that voted for Liz Truss.They might need some professional help
Most are the kind of people who would vote for an actual lettuce, as long as it had a blue rosette sitting on top of it.
Those were the missing Trump votes from Georgia đ đđ
Kwasi has no shame, he should be banished. Please do not have him on TV.
Otherwise he will be drowned in the OctoPod
But then we wouldnât get to see the look on his face when Susanna pointed out his admission of guilt
Long on dignity, short on shame
I know...so insulting for him to be on the platform
Yes, banish him from the realm please (and all the other crooks)!
How this guy has the nerve to come on in the first place is beyond me.
It couldn't happen to a nicer lettuce
The fact that this guy seriously thinks he can talk with absolutely any authority what-so-ever is so insane it's annoying.
Kwasi shouldn't have any authority to speak on political matters on TV after that disastrous budget that he and Liz Truss put into the country. The country was on its knees after the pandemic but somehow they made it even worse which seemed virtually impossible to do. I'm glad Liz faced some sort of punishment on her disastrous time when she was PM.
@@gunnyo50 Won't she be receiving ÂŁ115,000 a year from now on? Some punishment!
He's an animal
Losing a 20,000 majority?
That's not a loss - that's a calamity! đ đ
26,000 + majority. Madness budget but she probably did us all a favour to expose how badly the tories âf**ked upâ
Kazzee dressed like pencil man Sunak and wilting like Liz Lettuce.
It isn't that Truss didn't get enough votes, she got 11,217 too many.
You wonder who these 11000 are!
Thatâs about the amount her hero donald went looking for in Georgia
11,217 people voted for her ⊠unreal !!
@@Kodakcompactdisc ⊠nice one
Ohh, he has "some degree" in the Tories downfallđđđ
Justice served
Was it? Their friends will still be lords, still have the stolen billions from PPE contracts, etcâŠ
LT turns and walks off when she lost - yep no Fs given by her. Honestly the true colours of these people, power power power! And all I can say is âGet Outâ!
Kwasi and truss should be charged with treason
This is 2024, not 1424.
Treason requires a direct threat to the king/queen
not treason, but criminal negligence.
@@namrofni6236 And Truss and Kwarteng hurt everyone else, but the King did OK out of them
Being absolutely useless at your job is no crime.
The arrogance to stand after such a debacle. Are the voters supposed to reward this failure by voting for the equivalent of a blue balloon on a stick?
Tories have an inherent belief that they have a right to rule. Im just surprised they *dont* have the initiative to run off with the bag after ruining everything.
They very nearly did đ€Šđ€Šđ€Šđ€·đ€·đ€·
Kwasi needs to hide. He has no shame.
Tories destroyed UK's economy, there's no putting lipstick on that piglet to make it look pretty. Why is Mr. Kwarteng even offered a microphone at this point?
A few in the Tory party would get off on a piglet in lipstick!
Well she was the worst pm putting all of us in big trouble đđđđ
Brexit killed Tories. This is a lesson for parties that failed to lead the country in the correct direction.
It wasn't Brexit itself, it was the Tories failure to negotiate an exit deal in spite just because they lost the leave vote. That's the self-serving dishonesty that people can't forgive.
Correct âïž,and not a mention of the B word,đ€·đ€·đ€·đ€Šđ€Šđ€Š
@@jonlee2217 The Tories were the ones who introduced and pushed Brexit. But then failed to implement the very thing they demanded.
Kwarteng and Truss still in denial. However Trussâs face was a picture of political defeat and irrelevance đ

Yes. Voted for liberal democrat!
Absolutely đŻ%correct , and not a mention of the B word đ€·đ€·đ€·
So sad that Liz Truss has just lost her seat after all it's not so long ago that she lost her mind.
It was wonderful to watch Truss listen to the results and hear that she had lost. Marvellous stuff.
They're actually told before they go on stage, according to the BBC last night. I suspect that's why she kept everyone waiting - she had to stop screaming.
talk about a bad loser. she took a match and lighter fluid and set fire to 35bn and cost many ppl their mortgages and stopped some from getting on the housing ladder.
Kamakwasi the worst chancellor we ever had
Truss & he have caused such hardship for so many trying to pay their mortgages for a start, with their arrogant incompetence
It would be nice if they genuinely accepted responsibility and refunded to people like me the huge additional mortgage costs that we must pay.
The arrogance that comes with being a Tory denies them any responsibility.
You were going to pay higher mortgage costs anyway, in what world were interests rates not going to go up?
Another 'great' Cameron decision.....passes into the septic tank of history.
He has no money worries you probably have, he intelligent in that degree
@@DrMontague It's not that hard when you're born with it!
@@edpistemic well done to reece he fleeced the dozy working class, now it's tory Kiers scammers turn
KK, it's a really bad result but I made sh*tlaods of cash when I shorted the pound, so, I'm happy....
And his old mate, and former boss, Crispin Odey made even more. Corrupt to their very core. Prison is too good for these criminals.
Isn't that how Mogg family became rich, through Soros.
Truss is another one who should never have a place in power.IMO. I don't like her and I'm going to simply ignore her from now on.
Hopefully to disappear from Politics forever
The same sentiment of her own father.
UK has already ignored her fortunately.
This Knighthood system needs, to be reformed.
@georgemayo. It does if they give Southgate a knighthood !
Truss was not going to make a losing speech congratulating the incoming MP. Look at the way she behaved when she won the Tory Party leadership and became PM egotistically looking straight through everyone for her own gain (ignoring Sunak next to her). A very nasty piece of work.
Yeah she was just vile everyone wanted her out ....
Kwasi talks about âwhat happenedâ with Liz and me as though they were caught having a love affair rather than bringing the country to the brink of ruin.
Rumour has it that they did have an affair.
Easy to miss, but great to see redundant tory boy Andrews Pierce sitting there stewing in his own bile.....
Sunak a caretaker? I wouldnât let him take care of my studio flat while on vacation. No no no. We donât want to see his hyena
Smile any longer on TV. California is calling.
This was all Liz Truss fault.
Liz Truss loosing her seat wasn't a shock that was obvious that was potentially going to happen. The biggest shock was Jonathan Ashworth loosing his seat.
Thank you Rishi Sunak, Boris Johson and Lizz Truss for showing us exactly what the Tories are, bye bye and farewell hurray.
KWARTENG, Its not as bad as I thought it would be???
Still oblivious
đ đ đ đ đ đ
That made me laugh out loud
He still canât count?
I thought I had tucked up much worse than that!
I Hope that the Tories learn a lesson but I doubt it.
Interesting that he thinks moving right is the way to go as opposed to going central. No lessons learnt.
Depends on what you call right. What right wing policies did the conservatives use and how are comparable labour polices different? Remember labours majority, just like the conservatives, does not mean they have the majority of voter support by any means.
Kwasi should be no where near tv. Talks a good game now. Y did he not do his talking in the job
Dreadful woman no shame at all.
Are we getting lessons from Kwasi?. Back to the Beeb for me.
đ kwasi is the worst person ever
Never heard a man so confidently say "...I was sacked" wow! And while smiling from ear to ear!
And she'll still get a Prime Minister paycheck for life.
The Lettuce has been binned!
The UK leaders r so much more humble & kind to one another. Itâs nice. American politicians only blame each other & never work together or admit their mistakes
It seams that a constitutional democracy is more democratic than the republic! I hate to say it but the American experiment is very near failure.
You're easily tricked but nobody is as bad as American politicians.
I know people hate Kwasi but he does actually seem like a very likeable guy, his blunt honesty is quite refreshing tbh. I think he is abit flippant about everything but I like that
Why are you apologising to Kwasi for that mad budget?
He has the cheek and say that it was disappointing? What was disappointing, sir, is your incompetence is protecting the finances of the country....
All political life ends in failure. The like of Liz Truss flew close to the sun forgetting that her wings were of wax.
Good result for the nation.
No time at all for this captain of the Titanic.
They couldn't see the problem, they were doin' so well, getting richer, Going nowhere, doing nothing.
How much will we be forking out for the long and comfortable retirement Liz Truss is now going to enjoy, and does the new government have any intention of severing those payments?
I cant believe Liz Truss had the neck to even stand as an MP again.
It was inevitable for Elizabeth Truss, to loose the constituency.
Truss and Rees-Mogg đ€ Together with Bojo those that did the most damage
Truss losing is the cherry on the icing. So richly deserved. Pork!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lettuce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please now let her and him be forgotten
The redeeming feature is that Sunak and Hunt were grown ups and Starmer and Reeves appear to be too. We have had enough of egocentric attention seekers and political extremists.
Kwarteng should be in prison, along with Truss, both conspired to bankrupt the country! Wouldn't give him a job, laying tables? đźđ
GOOD
why is anyone giving Kwasi Kwarteng a platform? This guy almost killed the UK economy
It was a very very very bad results for the Tories cannot accept there was incompetence on his part.
I came here for the laughs when I saw the name Liz Truss in the title. She's priceless! And by priceless, I mean worth zero.
Should be locked up.
im just surprised Scotland has set fire to itself đ
He was the chief architect of the debacle.
It's brilliant News that Lizz Truss has lost her seat.
Ayesha: No Kwasi, you can't spin this!đ
It still won't affect her ÂŁ100k. PENSION. for " Services to the Country ! " ( Courtesy of UK. Taxpayers )
You can thank Gordon Brown for that, I think he put that in place.
The most obscene, corrupt and deplorable losing power, people woke up.
Labour getting 2/3 of the seats on 1/3 of the vote, there isnt anything to learn except figure out how to game the FPTP system
Truss is deranged. To have the gall to even stand for re election after losing to a lettuce? And Kwarteng? I'm lost for words at the the the? FFS.
And what of Cameron, back to the other place, unelected with expenses, allowances and other benefits thrown in!
Truss might treat herself to a new toilet seat.
I would personally like to thank Truss, Kwarteng, Baker, Johnson, Mogg etc, they became hated by the people and they have helped Labour win. I thank you.
Penny Mordaunt defeat surprising to me. She was seen as the UK's next Prime Minister.
Democracy was also a winner.
Bravo!
HALLELUJAH the country has finally rid itself of a shedload of trash it has been coming WHAT A RELIEF.
Next is Blame game...
they will all spend the next 5 year blaming each other for whatever mess comes next. All we can guarantee is mess.
The dumpster fire has been raging for a long time...
I bet all of those people are getting paid today.
The Independent standing there, James Bagge was a long time local Tory activist, who stood against Truss because he was so fed up with her and took more than 6000 votes from her.
The right wing shafted by the extreme right. Poetic justice.đą
She and him cost us all thousands
Best to take 100% responsible for failure, mistakes, and be humble and to move over for a new, fresh bench of smart leaders and talent. That is good for the party and country.
She's raging lol I wonder if she's even lightly aware of why she got the boot. Good on Kwasi for mostly hiding his smile though.
Since she lost her Premiership, Truss has shown no regret or remorse whatever for her calamitous tenure in office, so it comes as no surprise that she would have neither the courage nor the grace to give a concession speech, choosing instead to limp offstage into the wilderness with the same bewildered expression we have all become so familiar with. She will no doubt re-emerge in a few months time, ready to blame anyone and everyone but herself.
đ€Łđ€Łđ labour knows now to listen to the British people because theyâll only have this one chance, get started!
They're in a very tricky position considering the amount of national debt the Tories have left us with. Without growth, it's impossible to promise anything right now... unless we tax wealth of course and hunt down the missing money in the Cayman Islands.
That's not a bad thing
Truss could open a grocery shop at the outskirts
