- Rishi Sunak is under immense pressure after alienating a core demographic. He left the 80th anniversary of D-Day early to oversee an election meeting, according to the Sunday Times, drawing widespread criticism. If this were outside an election, would he have been forced into a resignation? Lewis Goodall speaks to top Tory Mel Stride and in-the-know politico Aggie Chambre:

He's not sorry he left, he's sorry that there were consequences for him
So true
His 'Apology' was like that of a sulky teenager! It was clear to see, he was annoyed at Us!
IF he is genuinely sorry then he should write personal letters to ALL the veterans explaining why he thought a political meeting was more important than attending the entire D-Day events.
Another one who's not used to having ANY consequences for his actions - it's to do with expensive but poor education. 😮
He was not the only one who left early....
The Germans stayed and they lost the war
😂 that got me laughing
Actually the important thing you forget is that GERMANY WON THE PEACE ooooh yes and lots of World Cups for that matter!!
Did the Italians turn up ? And if so were the on the allied or German side ?? That's a serious question I'd like to know if anyone knows answer
@@HamishM22 Their bus got stuck in reverse
@HamishM22
The Italians dissolved their alliance with the axis powers and surrendered to the alies.
They were used as supporting forces in North Africa but as far as I am aware the Italians played no part in Overlord or the subsequent counterinvasion of France.
Sunak has ZERO connection with ordinary people. His career is toast.
Political career... sadly not his financial career, and that seem to be the extend of the consequences.
Or may be you. King has no work to do. He can stay for a week.
He likely doesn't care too much as he's made it to the top job in the land and made history by becoming the first non-caucasian person to hold the role. He's got his place in history because of it. Furthermore, the Tories losing at the upcoming election already means that he will be ousted as leader as that is what political parties do. He knows all that, so I find it extremely disrespectful and disgraceful that he left the D-Day anniversary event early. He has absolutely nothing to gain by returning to attend an election meeting. He's made gaffe after gaffe during the campaign thus far, starting with his ludicrous decision to announce the election standing in the rain without an umbrella! The man's either a clown or has simply given up. Regardless, if he was as patriotic as Mel Stride was insisting, he would have at least put his all into the very non-political event that the D-Day anniversary is.
Correct, how can a billionaire ever know how it feels to have to work and struggle to live in 2024 UK under the Tories?
@@harshadagashe the King has got cancer, but he was there.
Your comment is just distasteful.
"Deeply patriotic". We all know he's leaving for California when he's kicked out of office!
....and his children will have to be registered for their new term in school very soon...in California...funny thing: the press are not reporting on that...

@@forest3064 You may not be aware, but when it comes to VERY Expensive, Private schools, one can't simply 'Turn-up' at the school with your sprogs and hope they are let in.

Get back to me in 8 weeks, mate....
@@swanvictor887 Their school is in UK I’m pretty sure not in USA
He's only sorry he's being called out. Typical narcissist.
"He's an intensely patriotic person".......so intensely patriotic he has a house in Santa Monica, California, USA and left the D-Day commemorations early. But wants 18 yr olds to do National Service...anyone else notice the problem here? laughing boy Sunak is as patriotic as a fig leaf and this ex hedge fund manager has zero empathy or understanding what it's like for a normal working person who busts their chops every day to put food on the table.
... other than that, top bloke. 😅
@@danmayberry1185 UK has already been bought and sold, impossible to change the UK now unless edict of expulsion.
And a green card...
well said and agree totally
Just so you know he used to live near Northallerton in North Yorkshire. Just sold the house recently
A mistake Is forgetting your tobacco tin is still in your pocket when you put the washer on. Sunak made a conscious decision to leave an internationally significant memorial event to attend an interview. That is not accidental, and by no means a mistake.
Wasn't going to go in the first place and the ITV interview was pre planned so very little genuine sorrow involved.
Just arrogance. Period.
hahaha yeah I know right. I have made mistakes before... they usually arent planned weeks in advance....
By banging on about attending the British led part of the memorial is also an insult to those of every other nation that lost life, limb or sanity. Even the luckier ones were robbed of their youth.
Despicable.
@@nationaltrevor255its vile and very provocative and what gallery is he playing to by doing it?
What career he will be gone to California soon .. he only cares about high earners .. has no compassion about those struggling , having to use food banks ... It's absolutely disgusting
@@seamus7054 He doesn't come from India himself. His parents do, but he never grew up knowing the poverty of India, only the upper-class system of the UK.

@@seamus7054 and landed in britain, where its also normal (read up on eugenics, the british caste system, the one that beat the nazis and became a massive success in america. last legal eugenics law forced sterilization 1981) but they dont mention that. keep it well out of the school history curriculum. point fingers at india while they have their hands in your pockets.
Whether in California or in the northeast, I think he will get a job as a professor at an elite university, at least for the next year.
Saying “I am sorry” without meaning it is what is commonly known as lying
Oh…”he’s sorry”…and he means it. But he’s only really sorry that he did it and it caused a firestorm politically. If it weren’t for that, he’d have done it again…
Stride even used the passive Boris-ism, "A mistake was made."
He's getting a bit of a reputation for lying
@@danmayberry1185 YESSSS i noticed this, like why don't politicians realise that putting things in the passive voice doesn't minimise them, it makes them STICK OUT and emphasies how mendatious and two-faced you're being?
“He attended the British events “. Exactly. He was avoiding being at a French led event to avoid criticism from Farage. Inexcusable.
One chap suggested to James O'Brian that Sunak left so as not to be seen in solidarity with Europeans, which might have upset the elderly Brexiteers.
Why is Farage still having any pull in your politic is beyond me. I understand how people not recognize him for the obvious fraud that he is.
He snubbed the USA too. It was at Omaha beach.
@@GuzziHeroV50apparently that appears to be the case. TheTV interview was booked weeks and weeks ago
@@GuzziHeroV50I agree, that's what I got out of it.
If you listen to his interview (Sunak's) he never said sorry, he said "I apologise" and then spent ages trying to blame his schedule.
yup. you could see in his eyes, he was Angry! Like a sulky teenager.
Sunak and his team set his schedule. They could have moved things around, they could have held that interview at a different time etc.
I just don't buy this about his team scheduling his diary. All leaders have the final say and can veto any arrangement. If Sunak's advisors asked him to be on the edge of a well at a certain time would he just do as he is advised or veto that appointment? Sunak knows what is Right and Wrong. Stop passing the buck.
To be fair saying you apologise or are sorry is pretty much the same thing. I'm no fan of Sunak but you don't need to say sorry to let people know that you are. If anything you could argue saying you're sorry is making it about how you feel rather than acknowledging how it made those you've wronged feel.
@@franklingoodwin ...whereas Sunak gave a grudging, awkward apology while mouthing weasly excuses and looking annoyed that he had to do so. He IS NOT SORRY...but he IS Angry...at us for pointing out he's a scumbag.
‘Intensely patriotic’. Decides to leave. Something isn’t right here🤦♂️
Lol maybe he's lying ? Let's be honest when he loses the election he will be off to USA ASAP .
Sunak IS intensely patriotic. He will always support Indian 🇮🇳 interests in everything.
When you bet on the stock market when the UK banking is collapsing, to make money , you're not a "Intensely patriotic" man.
He's intensely patriotic to his billionaire Indian father-in-law...
An exponential increase in UK 🇬🇧 work visas from India 🇮🇳 under Sunak. Looking after his own.
Yes. Rishi Sunak is a disgrace leaving the 80th Anniversary of D-Day early. Unforgivable!
they dont get it do they? it's not just "you annoyed veterans". ffs, they really have no clue do they?
None!!!!!
ITV interview was pre arranged. Very little genuine sorrow, just an exercise in damage limitation .
No one with Sunak's wealth and privilege was getting shot at on those beaches. He wants kids to do national service, yet he can't be bothered to do his own national service and attend a D-Day ceremony. This is not only embarrassing for him, but for the entire nation. Absolutely unforgivable
Theodore Roosevelt III, the son of the former president, went ashore with his troops in first wave on Utah Beach, being the only general to do so. He had to pressure his own commanding officer into giving him permission for this.
@@GRB-tj6ujI should think that generals are usually considered to be a liability on the battlefield.
@@johnm2012Roosevelt actually made a crucial intervention. The landing craft had drifted away from their intended destination and hit the beach a mile south from where they were supposed te be. After personally doing some reconnaissance Roosevelt decided against relocating and ordered to attack inland, saying "We'll start the war from here". This swift and decisive decision making led to Utah arguably being the most successful landing, and the US army just suffering 250 kia on that beach.
Sorry, but you are flat out wrong, at least for America. If nothing else, look up who the crew of PT109 were.
Brigade General Jr. Theodore Roosevelt Jr. was on Omaha Beach on D-day. He knew something about privilege and position.
for someone who has appointed a minister for "Common Sense" he demonstrated a complete lack of
I still don’t understand how creating completely redundant jobs out of thin air, paid for by tax payer money isn’t a crime.
👌
Hence the need for a designated minister.
😅
We are paying for furlough. Him repeatedly taking credit for it has worn so thin it’s beyond threadbare
It was a done deal by Treasury without which the economy would have collapsed. It was an no brainer and he just had to sign on the dotted line. It wasn’t HIS idea at all. The one idea he DID have was ‘Eat out to help out’ and the less said about that the better.
Did he deeply care about this country in 2008 when he and his hedge fund cronies were making millions out of the financial crisis which led to years of austerity ?
He's such a patriot, he told D Day veterans f-off I've gotta go do an interview. An utter disgrace.
The Tories don’t need to have any loyalty to Sunak. They know it’s over and he’ll be out as leader soon.
I think they call it party unity, aka lemming loyalty. If the lead lemming jumps off the cliff, all the others follow loyally. Which in this context is quite 😁 funny. The party leader is NEVER wrong. It's hilarious watching them all tying themselves into knots, defending the indefensible, and insulting voters' intelligence into the bargain.
If they'd got any sense and possessed even so much as a particle of Conservatism, they'd be be queuing-up to call-out this hopeless fraud...
@@AndriyValdensius-wi8gw When Tories get caught, taking bribes, fumbling at female staff, making “deals” with the public’s hard-earned money., they always say “ It was a mistake”. I’m just longing for some interviewer to ask “ What did you get wrong ? Will you do it better next time ? “
N@@AndriyValdensius-wi8gwTo me it rather looks as if the dynamics now is based on getting on the safe side as soon as possible by turning away from the leader. The ship is sinking and the captain is made responsible for it.
The fact that Sunak left shows that he did not care. It is really that simple. No apologies needed. His actions showed that.
Its got to be so exhausting defending the indefensible
It's all the Conservatives do so imagine they're used to it
The Tories have lessons at Eaton to prepare themselves for it.
It's only exhausting if you have a conscience. That's the advantage that Tories have over the rest of us humans, sadly.
At least they couldn't blame this one on the EU, covid, the war in Ukraine or immigrants.
If Sunak cared, as described, and had this clear sense of duty, he would not have left.
"The Prine Minister is a deeply patriotic person"... He held a US Green Card while he was Chancellor 😂
And he had a hand in the financial crisis of 2008 that caused us to suffer endless Tory austerity
Rishi Sunak was less qualified to be PM than even Boris Johnson and Liz Truss. Although that wasn't a high bar to begin with.
To be fair, he WAS born in the U.K unlike de Faffer Johnson!!
Why do they think that "it was already in the diary" is an excuse. It makes it even WORSE (if that's possible) because it means that it was a pre calculated decision to only stay for the British elements of the event. Just stop for a second and put yourself in the position of the teenagers who were in those boats about to land on those beaches. Sunak's cowardice is the opposite of everything those superheroes stood for. He hasn't brought shame on them or our country, only himself.
D Day has been "in the diary"for 80 years, no excuse Sunak.
I worked in news media. Trust me, ITV producers will have been shocked that he kept his interview appointment. They'd likely cancelled it in their minds when they saw the scheduling conflict.
Who is still voting conservative, thats what i still cant comprehend?
Many do as it "makes them middle class" those that do are often really working class.
Also posh families always do. It's in their DNA, but not so many of the really wealthy.
Who else is there to vote for?
Slugs voting for salt
@frixosfriedman. That’s an easy one. 24 hour,, highly skilled and subtle brain-washing across the vast Tory-owned media. A method first designed by the Nazis in Germany in the 1930s. It didn’t deceive the British who were on to it pretty quick. But we should look at ourselves now. For 14 years we lost the plot.
Rich people who can afford private health care, thick poor people praising the Tories for food banks, and a few Gammons...
Stride the Human Shield for the Tories. The Tories keep trotting out Mr.Stride ( nobody else ) every day in front of the media. The rest
of them have given up trying to defend the gaffes and the lies.
But just spouting empty words .
He is a deserter.
Bayo Alaba is standing as the Labour candidate for Rochford and Southend East. This weekend Conservative politician Daniel Nelson openly mocked Alaba for not campaigning yesterday because he was “in France”.
The reason Alaba was in France is because he’s a military veteran who served with the Parachute Regiment and he was taking part in a sponsored parachute jump in Normandy to raise money for veteran’s charities, including the Royal British Legion.
Alaba said after the jump, “Our jump into Sannerville marked the 80th anniversary of D-Day. This was my small homage to our forebears who gave everything for us on those beaches 80 years ago.”
That is an example of patriotism, the Conservatives are not patriotic, they openly mock military veterans and treat them with contempt.
It's quite telling that the Tory candidate didn't even put two and two together, almost like he didn't know when D-Day was.
@@franklingoodwin It makes you wonder doesn’t it?! I can’t decide if they’re liars or just not very bright. Probably a bit of both.
@@franklingoodwin I think he knew. Just a bit of pandering to the Tory base.
@@paulgibbon5991 I mean he must've known it wasn't going to work out well for him. Did he think the Labour candidate was going to say nothing?
@@franklingoodwin He's counting on his voting base reading the accusation in the right-wing attack dog press and then never realising the truth. The Tories have been taking more and more cues from the Trumpite style.
These people have zero problem calling other’s unpatriotic but are now crying foul.
Unpatriotic is as unpatriotic does.
If you care deeply about your Country & you have the privilege to be at the Commemoration Ceremony to remember the thousands of young Soldiers killed in defence of this Country from true evil & the thousands in foreign countries in unmarked graves you would want to be there , you would want to Sunak, for all of it not bits of it
I'm old enough to remember the Labour leader Michael Foot being destroyed by the press for wearing a duffle coat on Remembrance Day. Foot volunteered for military service during WW2, but was rejected due to asthma. After his death it was revealed that he served in the Home Guard Auxiliary sabotage units, preparing for resistance in case of occupation. He could have used this in his defence, but was bound by official secrets.
Did this man just learn the word 'deeply' today?
Utter hprse manure. A true patriot would NEVER have left the D Day commemoration
It's 10% apology and 90% excuse from these people.
It's more than a mistake. It's a complete lack of judgment by someone who is supposed to know better. No apology can be accepted on this matter.
It wasn’t an unequivocal apology by any measure. It was insult to injury.
The British people are more and more awake. This verbal diarrhoea no longer works as we know what's really going on. We will eventually kick our minions out of the parliament and take the power away from them. We will show them who's really in charge. They need to know their place. They will have to work hard to earn the Privilege to govern this country.
If the British people knew "what's really going on" they likely wouldn't have voted for Brexit, or Boris Johnson.
@@jamesgravil9162 Brexit and Johnson are precisely the reasons why Brits started waking up. It needed to happen for them to open their eyes.
My guess is Sunak will be gone by the end of the week. He clearly doesn't want the grief of pretending he wants the job anymore and wants out. Everyone predicted a late election in the year, but we got this. His bags are already packed and tickets bought for the states.
He can't be replaced as leader, as no MP to vote on a replacement.
Am an Indian migrant too. Rishi Sunak could have vetoed the Interview although all leaders have dozens of advisors at the end of the day he had the final say. Defending Sunak as being Patriotic is a slap in face for the veterans as Sunak's grandparents chose UK over Punjab India and Tanzania to migrate in search of a better life Thanks to the veterans. His judgement and the optics are disgusting. His ego was on display.
And let's not forget the thousands of Indian people who were pushed into fighting for Britain.
I think Sunak realised his career was over weeks ago and is 'phoning it in' at this point. I would imagine he looks at his tickets to America every morning and looks forward to the day when he doesn't have to pretend to care anymore.
Sunak had zero connection with British culture and history
Citizen of nowhere.
Perhaps but historically those veterans made UK a better place to live and his grandparents chose the UK over Punjab India and Tanzania for a better life. Unforgivable and all the elites go on about integration/diversity defending mass migration when the PM is busy electioneering.
@@agnescraig2912 Let’s not forget that there were thousands of Indian troops on the Normandy beaches and hundreds of thousands more serving in the Eastern theatres (along with many Africans - my father served with the RWAFF in Burma). The Japanese advance was only stopped on the very borders of India at Imphal and Kohima. The debt we owe to that generation is global and as much part of Indian and African heritage as European/Western. Those who carp about diversity and wokeness are airbrushing the contribution of millions of men and women across the world in the fight against fascism. Sunak’s ignorance extends beyond mere “British” culture and history.
he is indian and business interest in india.
@@philiptaylor7902 Well said.
Perseverance was a wartime anthem. "Never, never, never give up." Rishi can accept his Paula Vennells Apology Award and F off.
He's given them all the same script to follow. Soulless damage control.
So patriotic that when chancellor he openly boasted about diverting funds from the poorest areas in the UK to gift to the richest communities...to great applause and cheers from the tory activists he was boasting that information to.
He left without a thought. He didn't think it was important to HIM!!
Nobody is talking about the insult to the Americans, who lost so many at Omaha, and without them we would be speaking German !!!
Read a history book please
@@bauer9101 Which one ??
You spelled Russian wrong. Germany was toast, with or without America.
@@GuzziHeroV50 America (and allies)supplied weapons to Russia without Which they would have been toast
"By the end of June 1944 the United States had sent to the Soviets under lend-lease more than 11,000 planes; over 6,000 tanks and tank destroyers; and 300,000 trucks and other military vehicles.'
Or Russian
One question never asked is.. ‘has he apologised to the allies he casually chose to snub…in particular Canada, America?’ The people who came to our rescue in our hour of need and sacrificed their own young.
And as Sunak lectures us about our ‘dangerous world’ 13:11 .. he might have wanted to show some solidarity with France, Germany and the US given the opportunity?
Do British patriots hold green cards??
They dont deliberately convince half the electorate to vote for Brexit so they make a shed load of cash out of it, whilst simultaneously moving their money into other countries in the EU to protect their wealth... like Farrage and Mogg
Hmmmm...does Farage not hold German passport??? That is similar to holding a green card, no?
"He hasn't run away from this"....
Are you talking about the same guy who was avoiding the press yesterday, Mel?
Sunak should resign immediately having insulted the leaders of USA, France, Germany and our King and Queen and all those that served and fell in the wars and those who survived and stayed to fully honor the occasion. He's a disgrace to humanity.
Agree. Little disaster capiitalist with a wife who contributes to the family income by displacing British IT workers by importing massive numbers from India.
Sunak never feels very strongly about anything. Weak, whimpering shadow of a man, let alone Prime Minister.
Mel Stride is another repeating the prepared lines that Sunak robotically repeated, the Tories have nothing left but empty rhetoric
He was trying to appeal to old bigoted Brexit voters by snubbing the Europeans. Instead of getting the expected 'heroes welcome' on return to England Sunak has instead been eviscerated by these same bigoted Europe hating right wing voters he wanted to impress. Now he knows how muddled up and weird these voters are. As a Remainer all I can say to you Sunak is 'WELCOME TO OUR WORLD'!
probably bet against the country again
Dementia Tax ????
Chase, Truss, Fabricant, Swain, Mogg, Nadine Dories for what they must owe in back taxes and you could repay the national debt 😂😂😂
All that Labour needs to do at this point is to step aside and just let the Tories get on with their implosion.
That he left the beach picture can be their main campaign poster. It's brilliant.
Never interrupt your opponent when they are beating themselves up.
it is a case of priorities. You only need to look at how Sunak has treated veterans over the last parliament to see that he actually doesn't care a jot, however, his own personal wealth has increased over a hundred million in the last year alone. That is where his priorities lie. A disgrace! I would expect the King to admonish the silly little fellow for disrespecting the country, a dereliction of duty.
It's in his DNA, like Johnson, Cameron, and most of the tory thugs. It's a class system that exists very deeply. That's the root of the problem.
Though it's hilarious that last week Lewis was talking about the Diane Abbott situation like it was significant when most people didn’t care.
It's NOT an apologising issue, He should Immediately RESIGN
Still, At least we now have a British Prime Minister who has Apologised profusely for leaving Europe 🇪🇺 😂😂😂😂
Thank you - I need a laugh today and that comment made me chuckle.
I bet Sunak already has the private jet booked to LAX.
What they are doing with our disabled people is horrific
Aggie refers to whether Farage will be invited to "return to the Tory Party", but he left them as a member in 1992 - 32 years ago!
He was never an MP for the Tories, nor even stood for them, either.
He had a tractor driving lesson booked, give him a break.
😂😂😂
He hasn't run away from this, he hasn't done any interviews over the weekend 😂
I think anyone would be honoured to be invited to such a momentous and important occasion and for him to just leave is unbelievably disrespectful.
i'm sure it's happened to us all, you're on your way to represent your country at an important gathering of world leaders and you accidentally find yourself in a tv studio in a different country with no idea how you got there
"Yup. That's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation."
Action speaks louder than words, simple! He is a Disgrace. I put my life on the line for citizens of this country, as did my Grandad and my nan. Sunak you are a disgrace, and that is just the tip of the ice burg!!!
Thank you for your service mate and very well said.
Maybe it was to create a distraction away from the potential response to their £2000 claim of extra tax. When they could be asked how much did the Royal Bank of Scotland bailout cost against the £26 million profit Rishi Sunak made as a partner in the Hedge Fund TCI?
I can't understand how, after being in power for 14 years, they are going to do so many things if they are reelected.
Absolutely shameful behaviour. The general election is more important than respecting the people who gave their lives for us? He's done!
I don't think he cares!
The Queen said the most important thing is service first ,and personal agenda last .RIP Elizabeth || 👸 👑
You watch Sunak apologise and you can see behind his eyes he's thinking - ''I'm sorry that you think you deserve an apology''.
So they're doing "all sorts of things for veterans" including being incredibly relaxed about the numbers of homeless veterans, seeing police stealing tents from them, and wanting to pass legislation to criminalise homeless people for using tents.
Apology not accepted Sunak.
“If we’re successful in this election.”
They know that there’s no point being loyal to a guy who’s going to lose and be out as a leader anyway.
Deluded beyond belief
They will be very successful at losing and getting booted out.
Big if… 😂
He just uttered - sorry, througly patriotic, apologised and main point is he didn’t talk to Sunak but he is talking for him 😂😂😂
Carefully rehearsed answers repeated six or seven times. And many people feel politicians are insincere. You wonder why.
He is too rich to care !
He cared deeply! No he didn't. He knew which side of his bread was buttered.
Unforgiveable
The lies just roll off their tongues so easily.
very sad that he cares more about doubling down on a lie on itv rather than staying at the D-Day commemorations. He is only patriotic about sterling and making money and maybe his star wars collection - he should resign
Of course Sunak has no connection or care for soldiers, poor people go to war, rich people rarely do.
A lot of rich people served during the war. Most of the officers were from the upper classes and they had some of the highest casualty rates because they were expected to lead from the front.
However those days are long gone and most would use their money and influence to avoid active service. At best they'll be put in charge of regimental wine tasting or something.
Sunak must be deeply patriotic, given the number of times Stride said so. Unfortunately the Sunak family's personal wealth isn't.
"The Prime Minister is deeply patriotic and cares deeply about our country and our veterans. The interviewer should have been emphatic that we need to reschedule the interview date so that the PM can be present for the entire event of the day."
The PM has apologised, and the interviewer must apologise as it is the right thing to do.
So patriotic that his fingerprints are all over the fall of RBS making millions in the process that led to austerity.
Rishi was never 'for the British people'. He's happy to get a top English education, but apart from he's always been out for himself. He will head to the US as soon as his premiership ends. The Conservative party should not have been taken in.
I'm Canadian. I think the British PM was disregarding the sacrifice that Americans, Canadians and others made to help Europe and specifically Britain during D-Day.
Sunak: ‘I have a plan; the problem is I’ve forgotten what is was’!
Excuses, Excuses, Excuses. I wish they would stop trying to defend the indefensible. The man is the Prime Minister for The United Kingdom and should have been there to represent the Country on the international stage in respect of all the allied forces who were fighting for our freedom against fascism. It wasn't only British troops fighting on D Day!
He'll be gone in a couple of weeks, in the sunshine with his 115k a year money for life as an X PM, not to mention all his other cash he made at the expense of the people.
He cares? Pull the other one.
Sunak is so deeply patriotic he's leaving the country for California after the election .
Imagine having the Pub Quiz question.
Who is the worst PM of the 21st Century?
Would have to be multi choice.
Character? You cant be a billionaire and have moral fibre, thats just insane. How do you square being billionaire with starving children, climate change etc... its impossible. Character... we knew he was a slime ball, he is part of the taker class so duh.
I cannot understand why anybody would want to have all that money. Even if you are exceedingly extravagant and live for 200 years you will only spend a fraction of that amount.
@@davidcronan4072 Not just have it, but grasp for law, work to push inequality so you can get more money, and work hard to dodge paying tax on it.
Yes you can actually, ask Warren Buffett, worth $135 billion and one of the world’s great philanthropists.
Hes not Patriotic he dosnt recognise or care about such an important historical occasion Shame on him he's destroyed the party get him out before the next election
He’s reading the answer!
Sunak, Mercer & patriotism in one sentence - wow!
