A British broadcaster on "The rise and fall of Boris Johnson". I think it would have been fair if they'd pointed out that Boris Johnson only had a "rise" in England. In the 2019 general election the Welsh electorate voted in a majority of Labour MPs, in Northern Ireland they voted away from unionist parties and in Scotland the tories lost more than half their seats.
@@muckraker7942 So how does it work then? Or do you think that England should just ignore the other three constituent parts of the Union? If you subscribe to that opinion, then the Union is already dead, as it's supposed to be an alliance of EQUALS! Yet somehow most English people seem to think that Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland don't count, or aren't worthy of this equality and should just shut up and do as they're told by a Westminster Government that is increasingly out of touch with the reality of it's citizens. In the 53 years of my life, there has NEVER been a Tory majority in Scotland. Boris has been the best impetus in recent years for Scottish Independence and Liz Truss will only continue that trend as she intends to continue in the same mould as Boris!
@@muckraker7942 You're right - that's not how it works. But shouldn't it? The electorate of three out of four nations were not impressed with Johnson's rhetoric - yet Michael Cockerell didn't consider it worth mentioning.

The statue of George Orwell outside the BBC begs to differ from Boris's belief that "No one puts up statues to journalists". But I doubt Boris will be much remembered a few decades from now.
Still scratching my head, unable to answer a simple question. Besides the general election, what has Boris Johnson achieved?. He's like Midas in an alternative universe. Everything he touched turned to shit.
Brexit and Covid. Not saying he did the right thing, but he did big things and was a consequential Prime Minister (much more so than his three predecessors).
@@floozyofficial seriously?? I never knew Spaffer was responsible for covid. He was awol most of the time whilst his cronies cleaned up in PPE and failed track and trace contracts, whilst the UK led the way in covid deaths. Brexit is why Britain is the way it is today " the poor man of Europe. What has he done that's actually benefitted Britain?
@@terrychapman5335 The point of BREXIT is to distance the UK from the crap that is coming for the EU. It isn't about today, it is about making sure we don't get dragged down by the EU if/when it fails.

Boris was so negligent, he didn't realise he was going to let 20,000 additional people die. Negligence that was due to his inability to do his job or care for others. Should he be held liable? We can't choose, we have no say
Whoever narrated this film is great. His mellifluous tones are perfect for such a job. It seems the BBC always use him to sum up the career of prime ministers and there impact (or lack of). Sadly Johnson represents all that is shallow and insidious with our culture, a biased class system, the privileged few who rise to the top regardless of ability or talent. No wonder confidence in the system, be it political or otherwise is at its lowest ebb. No one with a brain cell seriously believes that this man is the best this country has to offer. One hopes that things will change because they have too. A new aware generation with new ideas for change is our only hope. 🙏❤️.x
I found this interesting due to the limited mention of and general lack of discussion around Brexit and it’s success or failure. The global media external of the UK talk about this all the time more now than ever and Boris Johnson was central. I wonder why the British media no longer talk about the largest single event that will shape Britains future. Let me think? Is it because it will reduce viewership or because people don’t want to hear that it may be one of the primary reasons the UK is more vulnerable to economic shocks than ever before. Now affecting peoples lives but hey ho the people won.
Churchill did make mistakes but he did not lie pathologically and wantonly ignore every rule that he met and certainly not every rule that he made. Winston was aware of his shortcomings and did not court publicity and public support with inconsiderate and/or underhand moves. He did not chase personal donations and did not secretly meet with shady people. He did not cut short official business and give his security the slip jeopardising national security by attending (with his then mistress) a drunken brawl hosted abroad by people who were using him and hoping for his national and international indiscretions . Actually, why has this enormous infringement not been thoroughly investigated yet? Boris (an ill self preferred name) is indeed a "chancer" who has pushed his exceptionalism far too far, and with that he must accept that bad luck is part of the game and that it has turned up for him too!
But bill has his good points and bad. He was definitely a chancer but perhaps his greatest failing from the country’s perspective was his lack of commercial acumen.
Boris’s greatest loss was the untimely departure of Dominic Cummings with his common sense advice, when on reflection his misdemeanour over breaking lockdown rules was more than trivial in the light of emerging evidence, he probably like myself knew it was all a ruse.
If Churchill was still alive, he would be disgusted and dismayed that such a ruthless yet incompetent man could get into Downing Street, he would turn in his grave at how much of a laughing stock Johnson has made the UK into. Far from hasta la vista, the best words to sum up Johnson without doubt, is "good riddance,"
History and our views of this man are already being rewritten by the likes of the so-called impartial BBC. If you just listen to the voice-over: it associates him with being a great man, compares him to Churchill, straight out calls him a winner and a hero. The voice-over at no point calls him a liar or a criminal. All the negative stuff that we all came to loathe is allowed to be played down by his cronies with stuff pulled from their backsides. It's the bullet points that stick in people's heads and colour our views, and those were all subtly pro Johnson. I'm sure we're supposed to come away from this thinking he wasn't that bad really, we lost a great man there. This was barely a notch away from a conservative party political broadcast.
I don’t think so. The entire topic of the video is rightly anti-Johnson, so perhaps they stud it with these “bullet points” in order to try to balance it out.
@@hmq9052 I know that. Read my comment properly. I said it associates him with being a great man, and straight out calls him a winner. This means I didn't say they called him a great man. I think when it comes to affecting people's basic outlook, making simple associations is more powerful than spending an hour lecturing them. I didn't hear any sardonic tone when it called him a winner and a hero. I don't believe there was one. Besides, when Spitting Image constantly portrayed Thatcher as powerful, even though it was sardonic, it still ultimately portrayed her as powerful.
Johnson had the audacity to move his pregnant girlfriend into Downing Street whilst still married to his second wife. That surely showed people what we could expect from this charlatan. He is not respectable. Has no sense of responsibility. I personally find him vile.
The Great Man Theory of history is fact, it's just overstated sometimes. Without certain individuals rising to the top of the power structure at certain moments, history would have happened differently. SOMETIMES events would have roughly paralleled themselves even if that leader had not arisen, but not in many cases.
the French point of view about this man is that he is interesting, original, different but also he really has the face of the guy who eats mint jelly every morning saying "Well well well" and that is quite stressful...
His failure started by idiolising Churchill. What was success and wealth to the British cost other people on the other side of the world a lot of pain, atrocities. Not a good example.
So now you unionists want over 50% of the Scottish electoral roll to vote for independence, not just 51% of the turnout. Then Liz Truss said that 60% of the vote must, for over a year, return 60% or more before an independence referendum is even being considered. It would seem that no English lessons were learned from the Irish Easter uprising, and history must repeat itself. Like the tides, you can not stop Scottish Independence and self-determination. You will lose all Scottish taxation, duty and other incomes from Scotland. Welcome to your very English Brexit.
When the government only get is our Boris is our leader! We voted him in to lead us and destroyed by his own party! The Conservative Party will lose to labour once we don’t have a proper leader! All I can say is bring back Boris!
The party scandal seems insane to me not gonna lie. Like it’s the British equivalent of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Like he’s not the only person who had parties during lockdown or broke protocol. It’s not like him having a party matters to like anyone outside of anyone who could have gotten covid from the party. It’s midly annoying at best
Pity about Boris..I prefer he stayed. Truss and Sunak can't fill his boots. When was the last time Tory PM finish there 5 yrs office before the fuck up in a epic way? Way bk
Given the alternatives there maybe a large number who think it's better to; Bring Back Boris. We need a solid centrist party who isn't labour or the conservatives.
As long as they spend money on the military, do not shy away from patriotism, seek the correct CANZUK relationship as our basis for international relations, and does not acquiesce to foreign countries and governments the way previous centrist parties have done.

His failure started by idiolising Churchill. What was success and wealth to the British cost other people on the other side of the world a lot of pain, atrocities. Not a good example.
I don't know why but I am always obsessed with hair and comb.
Nadine Dorries: "People can relate to someone who gets stuck on a zipwire [...] because that's what they do every day of their lives"
Allegra’s casual arrogance, all made up in make-up, was in sharp contrast to her disheveled, contrite tears of rage and remorse.
Is Nadine on drugs? Brexit was the worst own goal in recent history and the holidaying and partying Johnson's handling of the pandemic was shambolic.
Great headline title :)
So now you unionists want over 50% of the Scottish electoral roll to vote for independence, not just 51% of the turnout. Then Liz Truss said that 60% of the vote must, for over a year, return 60% or more before an independence referendum is even being considered. It would seem that no English lessons were learned from the Irish Easter uprising, and history must repeat itself. Like the tides, you can not stop Scottish Independence and self-determination. You will lose all Scottish taxation, duty and other incomes from Scotland. Welcome to your very English Brexit.
Can that jet not crash please ⚔️🤣🔨
Boris: I'll be back!
When the government only get is our Boris is our leader! We voted him in to lead us and destroyed by his own party!
The Conservative Party will lose to labour once we don’t have a proper leader!
All I can say is bring back Boris!
The party scandal seems insane to me not gonna lie. Like it’s the British equivalent of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Like he’s not the only person who had parties during lockdown or broke protocol. It’s not like him having a party matters to like anyone outside of anyone who could have gotten covid from the party. It’s midly annoying at best
This guy hero world one guy
Well said.
Is he dead now
Pity about Boris..I prefer he stayed. Truss and Sunak can't fill his boots. When was the last time Tory PM finish there 5 yrs office before the fuck up in a epic way? Way bk
This is a compelling documentary!
2:02 Surprise Surprise who do we have here: Baroness Dorries
So, let's put up statues of good journalists. Save the government from egotistical johnsons
We voted him in did we even know Liz Truss would she have been voted in by the public .
Enjoy your rest Boris
Nadine Dorris is so unbearable to look at
Incredible video
Liz Truss is a dark horse and people should “hold their horses” until we see what she can achieve.
a lot, it seems.
Seems like quite an agitative title for a video, from a news outlet that is ostensibly non-partisan.
175000 dead from his govt. handling of COVID-19. Nuff said.
Wouldn't trust him further than I can throw him.
Nadine Dorris “people spend their lives getting stuck of zip wires”
Good bye to Bad Rubbish
Given the alternatives there maybe a large number who think it's better to;
Bring Back Boris.
We need a solid centrist party who isn't labour or the conservatives.
As long as they spend money on the military, do not shy away from patriotism, seek the correct CANZUK relationship as our basis for international relations, and does not acquiesce to foreign countries and governments the way previous centrist parties have done.
I think the same , he is the best Prime Minister after Churchill, he made England more democratic, you will regret this decission‼️
@@lilianparker5060 Lilian, you're deluded
A Government of National Unity is the way to move forward!!!!! WTF is stopping the current British system of politics from taking off their collective blindfolds and facing the realities of a tiny little island, facing serious problems!!!!!! No more clowns please! No more sinister wiry little "fixers" with posh names. How come is it, that fat, indolent "privileged" wastes of space end up "ruling" the country????? Eton seems to have a bit of an assembly line going!!!!
Boris Johnstone was a disaster on brexit
I hope this video was okayd by the tories...
Is he dead
Most people can't relate to a spoiled entitled man child with 7+ children, a lavish upbringing who was always failing upwards.
Sour grapes???
What are the laws regarding corrupt Malta government staff /lawfirms /notaries using the NSO GROUP HACKWARE PEGASUS and abusing the Malta Communications Authority equipment to Manipulate, steal commercial researched projects and abuse all human rights?
Stay positive with Sherpa 🐶💖🐕🇬🇧
70 plus mp's resigning, over 20 lies in Parliament, what a clown.
As an American (who abhores Trump) I will really miss PM. Johnson. He was a great PM in my opinion.
The fact that the PM was forced to resign because of attending parties and not telling the truth about them is an indication that the UK society is far more civilized and law abiding than the US.
That is definitely not the only reason 😂
Dorries…the delusion is strong with this one.
He seems to be a Prime Minister preoccupied with booze! Having lots of party & getting into trouble! "Hasta La Vista, Baby!" 💋
🤔👊😅🔥✌
How out of touch are these MPS??? Regrets? No, the only regret I have is we voted him in in the first place. Now we get either dumb or dumber.
Amen ! I rather we keep Boris till General Election because these two alternatives are horrible
Which is which?
I thought it's Tom Cruise on the jet
