Liz looks impressed whenever she manages to string a sentance together.
Liz is a working-class Liberal and very proud of it.
Starmer should be doing much better against Truss, but for some reason he's not. I wonder if Sir Keith Starmer votes Tory?
So that's the reason why she's never looking impressed? I think she occasionally gazes around in wonder that her decades old scam actually works.
I bet she can spell ' Sentence '.😂😂😂
She's the prime minister you know case you missed it😁
Their demeanour, the cheering and booing, laughing, joking and more is disgraceful. We are in such a difficult stage in the UK (made mostly by the Tory government I’d add) and rather than behaving like adults and coming up with support for the country, they act as if they’ve all just entered school for the first time. Disgusting.
We will survive, always have and always will
@@TheSnoozeFoxI can guarantee many facing food and energy poverty certainly won’t. Why should we just “survive” when we could all flourish?
This is literally nothing new. It has always been like this?
@@freakinsweet95 You’re not wrong. Guess I’d just hoped for better!
"made mostly by the Tory government"... Yeah that's right, I forgot about how they created COVID 19 and invaded Ukraine.
She's really gonna struggle against Starmer .....she's so below par on all fronts ....
I saw the exact opposite, an excellent first PMQ's, she more than held her own.
the complete opposite, starmer wasnt able to pick apart her arguments as easily as the blusters of boris. Speaking both from a left a right point of view definitely softened his counter aggression
@@RADICALDESIGNOFFICIAL anyone who understands fallacies would know lizs ad hominem responses just deflected from answering anything properly. She did ok in saving face with ad hominem retorts but failed miserably in the actual debate.
@@jjefferyworboys8138 ducking and diving is only seen as " held her own " by ppl who know nothing about debates or fallacies. All she did is run from the questions with ad hominem
@@jjefferyworboys8138 You'd have to be really stupid to think she actually answered Starmer's questions, or dishonest. So which is it for you?
I’ve never seen a politician fail so spectacularly at dodging a question. You’re not supposed to make it that obvious Lizz
Silly Lizzy obfuscates the distinction between encouraging investment and craven butt-crawling.
She could stand in a puddle and be out of her depth
Gaming F: You haven’t listened to her much then because she is constantly dodging. Questions. I must add that most of the times it s because she doesn’t have a clue.
She really is doing her "best"
Helping businesses will trickle down to helping the business owners.
Helping the citizens will trickle up to helping the business owners.
I think we should put more effort into sharpening our pitchforks than into helping the owners especially when they refuse to share some of the wealth they claim to own.
When I was young I used to think that the future was going to be better than the past.
I dont think thats a reasonable hope anymore
The future ain't what it used to be.
it never was... just the illusion, change does not equal improvement. The one thing we have steadily improved is the rate at which we can slaughter each other. Civilization? Your 'avin a giraffe.
But resources at some point will run out
@Old Skool Bodybuilding Routines amen
@Old Skool Bodybuilding Routines what makes you so sure labour is a better option then? I'm sure there's a lot of detail and a realistic method to achieve a better outcome to help us understand this in that case.
WOW. clueless PM and ex-PM completely diverted the issue at the end
Neither of them were elected either, what are they gloating about!
You right unfortunately the people fall for it every time fools
No one cares about their gender. Being the third female prime minister is nothing to be boasted about.
They were both women as a matter of fact. More importantly, they will both go down in history as bad PMs.
....and dopey Sir Keir joined in the fun.........bless him.....
Laughing, jeering, cheering (and whatever else this nonsense could be described as) is extremely distasteful at a time when many will not see it past this winter thanks to the greed of the few. Absolutely disgraceful behavior when such a serious issue hangs over us and much of the world. This isn't the school playground, get on and do your jobs you're being generously paid and subsidized for.
The Torys are sadists. They like poor people underneath them.
Well said
You voted these guys.
It's not just in this meeting lol. It's like this in every house meeting. It's a bunch of privileged toffs who are so disconnected from the reality of the working person it's insane.
That’s the reason I don’t vote. They’re just a lot of disconnected children
It’s incredible that the Tories seem to be able to deflect from serious questions by either jeering like a bunch of drunk rugby players on a lads night out or resorting to cheap, irrelevant come backs like ‘we might not have a clue what we’re doing but why are all labours leaders from north London?’ If only they were as good at running the country as they are at deflecting questions we might not be in such a mess.
Whats more incredible is that given the economic mess the country finds itself in, people still vote for them ...

I love how they always say they back “hard working people”. What they really mean is wealthy people. Anyone here actually believe the ceo of Shell works harder than an NHS nurse?
The CEO of Shell isn't even British.
The reason why she won the Conservative election is because the people who are Conservative party members are not ones who are affected by the cost of living crisis. All they heard when she spoke was that she is giving them a huge tax break.
Of course they do! Don’t you know they have all those board meetings! (Cue extreme sports montage) Nursey poo couldn’t keep up with all of that…
Oddly I think they really do believe that, they're not an intelligent bunch
The passanger seats on those private jets don't fill themselves you know!
She probably means the sewage dumping and environment polluting money bags. I don’t call what they do ‚work‘ I call it ‚criminal activity‘.
We have a new PM? I don't remember voting for her....
I don't remember even being called to vote... I was under the impression the queen stepped in and appointed her but hey... I guess its in tories best interest to not advertise where and when to vote
Only Tory party members get to vote for the leader. The public don't vote for a PM, they vote for their local MP.
@@adrianthoroughgood1191 last time a pm left we had a snap general election, how come we didn't this time, is what I mean.
From 1996 to 2000, Truss worked for Shell as an accountant. I wonder why she is against taxing these oil and gas companies against their excess profits?
I suppose Margarette Thatcher rrefused to tax ice cream companies because she invented sof ice cream in the compny she worked for, for the American market. Your comment is bolshie commy rubbish!!

energy bill increase from peer nations :
Italy 89%, Germany 38%, USA 6%, France 4% : The UK 178% and by the end of the year over 400% increase. There is a lot this government can do and they are doing non of it, because they care more about big business profits some of which are going to the French government as they own EDF. They care more about those profits, than the people of this country of which some will not make it through the winter.
Can you blame them? The british people gave the tories a supermajority in the last election, everyone knew what the tories were about
It's worse in the UK because the regulator killed 40 firms in 2021. This has destroyed the competition in our market.
Now that the government is expected to announce huge support, all energy suppliers will charge the maximum price they can because they know the government will give them the money. Welcome to our Ponzi scheme economy!

This is what the Tory’s do , why oh why do working class people vote for these criminals?

@@jimwest7107 they won’t because they need to keep making money and more money each year to pay shareholders. Plus a government should be calling the shots not big business.

Not the working class.

Kier Starmer needs to keep the pressure on and keep making the right noises.
Polls are showing Labour have shot forward and maybe he'll be next into Number 10. I feel the most inspired and optimistic I've ever felt by a Labour leader since the Brown era.
I've got to say I agree. Starmer gets a lot of stick for being a centrist. In my opinion he may not be the ideal Labour leader in most people's eyes, but he is the leader that Labour need right now. I just hope that the left leaning public will not be too short-sighted to see that.
Corbyn was the only little spark of hope we the working people of Britain had for a better future, shame we can’t have nice things because centrists would rather cut their nose off to spite their face.

I’m not sure anyone is a huge fan of Starmer so the fact that he’s schooled the last 2 prime ministers in every PMQs there’s ever been shows just how tragic the Tories are these days. What’s even worse is the fact the British public keep voting them in. If they win the next election we may aswell just scrap elections all together cos there’ll truly be no point.
What's worse is that even his schooling and the economic disaster the country is in, still hasn't given him a far greater lead in the polls .. Politically, he's been handed an easy slam dunk and still can't get a whopping amount of support
then maybe you should run
Labour are even worse. It's why everyone should vote Reform UK

Terrible, when there is no insight ALLOWED (within conservatives), that "new/more jobs" does not mean "more spending ability) to the employees, AND moraly corrupt and distructive to deny that everybody knows this.
Yep, plenty more jobs that pay poverty wages so the underfunded social services and NHS can pick up the tab. How are people still falling for this nonsense from the Tories?
What makes me laugh and by that I mean shocking, and it shows how out of touch Truss is, is when she says her government will create better skill and better paid jobs.

uk next bill increase…100000% and all you have left in your bank…reducing taxes for energy companies and leaving working people pay the price. she doesnt understand the difference between company tax and working people being taxed
There's nothing wrong with the difference in opinion on how you grow the economy, whether it's Labour's way of taxing and distributing money, or the Tories' low tax, entreprenurial way to encourage investment. The problem with the Tories' way is that they can't control investment, they won't MAKE businesses invest. Instead, money gets hoarded and siphoned offshore into tax havens and we never see the benefit apart from having glitzy shopping centres sprout up everywhere. You end up with a country run by and for big business with the people powerless to do much about it. Now remind me, what did the country vote for Brexit for again? To take back.....?
You know what mate, that is the most reasonable comment I seen online for a very long time. The assumption that businesses will just reinvest has been proven wrong during covid, when some corpos even used relief funds for share buybacks. Profits will simply be hoarded and price increased, while wages and salaries will be stagnant as "we just can't afford it" as they post 5 billion profit for the year.
It also doesn't help certain taxes are off limits, like fuel taxes, or income tax.
Wait a Minute Parliament is acting like a high school crowd not adults !I didn’t see that coming .
As a Yank, I always find PMQ’s to be highly entertaining. You’ll never see me tune into C-SPAN for debates over proposed bills in the House and Senate since so much of might as well bore me to death.
Great example of saying nothing whilst speaking. She obviously has talent. What will a country based on such skills will look like in ten years?
would have been nice to hear some answers instead of thinly veiled personal insults
She is openly saying 'we need to ensure the mega rich businesses stay mega rich, other wise they might not possibly invest, maybe, back into the country with jobs, maybe. This all needs to be kept a possibility by loading huge debt onto the people of this country"
This what exactly PM Modi do in India..his billionaire friend Mr Adani just became 3rd richest guy on Earth under his rule..here they also give same logic that these super rich would invest...nothing happens while middle class and poors are getting poorer.

As for the Lib/Dems they helped the Tories with their austerity plans whilst in coalition with Cameron’s government from 2010 until 2015. If you vote for them you’d be voting Tory. Combined all these parties apart from Labour wouldn’t get enough seats to beat Truss❗️
We're fucked🤣
What is your contribution to society?

We are proper fucked
One thing I don't get here . The energy companies say that they have no choice to put up the prices because the wholesale prices has gone up and they only charging a little above this . If that's the case how come they will make 170bn of EXCESS profit !? Excess so what they would make normally plus the profit they have not budgeted in for the year ! There is only one explanation, they must be lying. Can't they not scrutinize their books and prove on the paper the costs and profits ?
CHANNEL 4 NEWS IS BY FAR THE BEST & DEALS WITH WHATS GOING ON IN A EASY WATCHING WAY..LONG LIVE CH4 NEWS.🙏🛐
....sell it off....nobody watches it.....nobody cares....
So much for a honeymoon period.
But this is a country in crisis, and action is required. The Tories are taking money from the poor and giving it to the rich, and it just can't go on.
The youth have to get activated and vote these people out.
Unhelpful bullshit, just vote harder. I live in a historically Tory stronghold. No matter what I vote for won’t make any real change.
@@thomasharris7881 Possibly…..you may be right, only reason I am so for it is for a couple of reasons, 1) it’s the only chance you get to make any sort of change, 2nd my grandad was sent up a beach on 6th June 1944 dropping his mates off in a Higgins boat when the 9nly ot(er option was to be put up against a wall and shot for cowardice.
True story.
But I still agree you could possibly be quite right.
Imagine the House and Senate interacting like this.
Lowering taxes yes, but NOT for the working classes of this country, only big businesses. Corporation tax in this country is a joke, giving out sweeteners to their already super rich cronies, is a disgrace. Re-nationalise everything NOW.
Different face - same B/S
£170 billion in profit is there any greater advertisement for nationalising energy. That would be £170 billion back in peoples pockets an average of £6,115 per household. And I think £6,115 x 27.8 million households, spending that money in their local businesses, is a much better way to improve the economy than it going in millionaires offshore savings accounts. We talk about a declining high street imagine if every house hold had £6,000 to spend on them.
It's not the energy company s setting the price it's the wholesale price that is the problem, so nationalising the energy company's won't do anything for the wholesale price they pay..
Do you know how much would it cost to nationalise the energy sector? Nice to have 6k profit but first we need to buy those companies. And that's a tad bit more then a yearly profit. Maybe 10x or so.
Next, we can Nationalise your home to those of greater need, that'll fix everything?
170 billion profit this year, all well and good but people quickly forgot the 1 trillion loses in 2020 due to oil and gas prices going -ve in value due to covid lockdowns which governments forced upon the world
the sacrifice our ancestors made for this country, we should all be living like kings, when you think every jew born around the war years was paid out money for sufferance, yet the dead soldiers family got remembrance penny, yes that was their reward a penny.
starma needs to stick it too her .she cant script his answers.
good to hear.
It’s fascinating how differently government meetings work in the UK vs other countries.
do other governments behave in an adult or even mildly professional manner?
@@gregprocter765 no I didn’t mean to say British are less professional. It’s just interesting to notice that in the UK they cheer so much and it’s structured like a debate between two football teams or something, whereas in my country they would start actual physical fights in large groups. Also interesting how in the UK the room is like separated into two, and it’s so small so everyone is very close to each other, whereas in some other countries all the seats are quite spaced out and pointing towards one speaker.
And also little comments like “yeah yeah yeah” at 0:20 throughout the speech, idk just surprises me
When the cost of living for people in the UK is at such a tragic position, wearing a Ukraine badge should be the last thing on her mind. It feels like we're just being pushed aside since the war in Ukraine broke out. All of our doctors are going to treat people in Ukraine instead of putting British Citizens first.
What utter nonsense. The war in Ukraine has nothing to do with the state of Britain today. We don't get our oil or gas from Ukraine or Russia. It's rampant profiteering by UK energy companies, aided and allowed by this Government. Staff shortages in the NHS are largely down to European nurses and doctors leaving since Brexit. Stop making up bigoted nonsense about UK doctors treating Ukrainians before British people. Utter, idiotic, codswallop.
Exactly bro treat your own citizens first and then worry about others clueless.
I wish idiotic cheering wasn’t allowed in the commons. You’re discussing the running of the country, not watching a football match.
I've got a lovely big green cabbage in my greenhouse that would love a go at being PM !!!!!
“It’s the same old tax and spend” from the Prime Minister who voted to give working people the biggest tax burden since post WW2.
I can answer Teresa May’s question, it’s very simple, the other candidate didn’t appeal to the old, white Conservative party members for some strange reason 🤔
You mean 'racism'?
Stupid comment, the Tories are well known as the party of Low Tax. And from your comment you are obviously a racist too.
Yes they are that racist that immigrants get hotels and the indigenous people of this country get the street !!!! Now ffs put your race card away
@@hugoagogo4324 I didn't mention race, that was you, I wonder why...
Also considering how many leaders the Tories have had in the last few years, it’s no wonder that at least some of them are not white men. It’s just a game of probabilities at that point.
WARNING! WARNING! TRUSSBOT CANNOT COMPUTE! 🤖💥
We need a Peoples Party in this Country, No Tories, or Labour, no Lib-Debs and no Greens, a Party that is in touch with the Working Class , a Party that will put the needs of the People First.
It might help if the government can run an awareness campaign to reduce the use of electricity and gas. 👍
Oh bring back the 1970s SAVE IT! stamp !
