@@TheMelbournelad 5 years is a long time yes, but look at the numbers. Only 33% of the electorate voted for Starmer, compared to 40% in 2019 when they lost. If the Conservatives and Reform can get their act together and work as a block, the Lib Dems lose momentum (as they tend to as they only gain votes from apathy for Conservatives and Labour) and the SNP regain footholds in Scotland, Starmer is going to have a hard time in 2029. He'll have to pull of an economic miracle to survive, which sounds unlikely with his plan to increase public spending.

Indeed. Boris Johnson talked big, but was fundamentally not serious about governing. He "got Brexit done". Which was his pr talk and the entire extent of his ideas about how to run Britain. Dominic Cummings has claimed that after Brexit Johnson felt he had made the media too hostile to him and was now going to try an patch things up with them instead of rocking the boat by using the huge majority the conservatives had to actually deliver on the promises they had made to the electorate. Johnson is of course himself a journalist. Which may not always be a bad thing but in this case gave the conservatives a fool concerned solely with appearances rather than an actual leader.
The conservatives tried austerity and it didn’t work because they did it on the things that are actually productive. If you do austerity on healthcare for example, people’s health may suffer, which means their productive may suffer. So you save money by providing less care, but you also forgo the tax receipts of that person being more productive sooner or not dying.

You’ve misunderstood the NHS payment system. Payment by results (PbR) was tethered to activity but length of stay payments were bucketed and capped, limiting the amount of funding a hospital provider received per admission, regardless of length of stay. PbR has largely been replaced by block contracts and, since COVID, the aligned incentives contract. These approaches effectively bulk-buy services and, although are subject to modest growth annually (an inflation measure, which is then ‘deflated’ by an efficiency target), aren’t tethered to activity. Based on your argument, that hospitals hold on to patients because it earns them more money, the opposite is true. Hospitals have a duty of care to their patients, and they can only discharge them if there’s somewhere to discharge them to (that’s safe, and will aid their recovery). A lot of the time, this can’t be done as social care packages can’t be procured (due to inadequate funding or no providers wanting to bid to provide services). This is a social care problem, not an NHS problem. Many have argued that it’d be much cheaper for NHS hospitals to procure social care packages to support discharge, but this doesn’t work for multiple reasons. Holding patients in a hospital bed is incredibly costly, and hospital providers don’t get more money the longer they stay. It leads to issues with ‘flow’ (impacting A&E weights and ambulance discharge delays), the requirement for agency staff to deal with operational pressures, and the establishment of escalation wards. All of this is unfunded.

There's a big difference between being a man of the people and being a man for the people. If and absurdly wealthy person states that he is not one of them but one for them, he's going to get a lot more votes that way.
The more left wing perspective is that the excessive austerity to cut debt when debt was low cost during the 2008 crisis destoried momentum in the economy. They did the opposite of what is needed in a financial crisis, (in the Keyensian sense) they needed to spend to sustain investment in the economy. If the British government wont invest in the economy why would private companies invest in the UK?
As a British person, I deeply worry about the continuation of the UK. And I don't think labour is going to fix it. If our nation doesn't do something, our beautiful and kind country will rip itself apart.
Rishi Sunak a right wing populist? Making cringy tic Toks does not make one a populist and pretending to want to solve immigration but doing nothing does not make one right wing.
He is a populist, after all populist are nothing more than over hyped liars who just overdramatize existing problems and offer "solutions" that on paper sound good but in reality are nothing more than nonsense that they when in power never do and eventually due to their failure lose power, not before stealing millions and fleing

The real issue is politicians do not respect their position, they swore an oath with witnesses when becoming a member of parliament. Regardless of party there are always cover ups, lies, miss truths. There is no accountability for politicians, nor is there any accountability for the civil servants.
I don't think the public voted for the Labour party as much as they voted against the Tories if the Tories had done a better job I do not think the labor party would ever one
The Conservatives haven't listened to their voters in decades. The Tories have governed no differently than Labour when it comes to hot-button issues like immigration and environmental regulation. Their interminable unwilling Brexit has managed to achieve the worst of both worlds, enraging everybody across the political spectrum. Eventually, people will stop voting against the opposition when voting for their own party does not get them the policies they most want. Long-standing one party rule has a bad habit of insulating parties from the interests of their voters, no matter your political ideology.
Several points I'd like to add: 1. Starmer didn't really win many votes. He increased labour vote share by only 1.5% as well as the lib dems who won massivley with 0.7% vote share gained. The big problem for the conservatives is reform UK who gained almost 15 percentage points of the close to 20% vote share lost by the tories. This led to massive losses in the first-past-the-post system the UK has. 2. It's not that they did not have a plan for Brexit the whole campaign was populist and moronic. The plan was not bad because the Leave campaign drew up a fantasy world in which the EU would just continue giving all benefits without any responsibilities to the UK side. It was like expecing your girlfriend to still clean your house, do your laundry and have sex with you after breaking up. Also a lot of the campaign was build around factual lies like claiming a net spend to the EU of over 300 million which was below a third of that or claiming fishing zones that were not possible like that under international law. 3. Starmer funnily did the same as Scholz in Germany. Be quiet, basically promise the same things as the conservatives but just be less unlikely than their candidate. Though actually this is a worrisome trend in many western democracies where a lot of campaigns now only are about keeping someone worse out and people tend to vote to impede something than to cause actual change or vote for something they agree with. In the US Biden won on the grounds of keeping trump out, Starmer wins to end the Tories, Scholz won to keep the CDU/CSU from coming to power again, Macron won a lot of elections because the people don't want Le Pen and the last election was that to.
A centralist view is generally best for compromise. Both sides are unhappy but not outraged. That’s issue in era of the internet and social media, the notion that my side is the correct way is delusional
There’s not enough difference between the two parties for my liking, but there’s still a significant difference. Enough worth voting for. Enough to feel cautiously optimistic.
I think it does not matter of who rule UK .. in UK there are problematic issue .. what I have observed was managing interventions and lying about their outcomes by questioning the affected individuals .. these are very classic and traditional practices .. so I think unless UK government will substantially change its course of conduct .. it will be subject to heavy trials and principle based consequences.
Hope it does not end like in Germany, where in 2021 the (center) right was punished for years of "misconduct" - only to by this point be even more angry on the "labor"+green+liberal coalition.
I hope now this new man will bring new changes to the rules especially related to immigration as people mostly the one who wanted to come in healthcare sector with dependents...waiting for quick responses from him on policies
Well the Tories did it to themselves. They did not have solid well thought out plans or even solid direction to lead the country in! It is as if they had never heard of such things. Waffeling about in every which direction in politics, ecconomics, industry and on and on. They never seemed to have any confidence either. We will have to see what we see. I doubt this will be a good move for the UK. The Tories where slowly marching into oblivion and I fear the Labour Party will more quickly charge into the same oblivion! We will have to see where things are in 12 month intervals! Things will either get better or worse for the country!
Brexit split the UK and I don't mean electorally. It nullified the act of union making it a shell document for Northern Ireland as it is now governed by a foreign power.

Starmer may want to really fix things, but how?? Taxing the rich I absolutely agree with. However, as long as immigration is as high as it is….its over….
@@neilrmartin1984Not certain if that is completely true. Overall immigration does increase things like GDP, but people's share of the economic pie might be less.
Fully fund it would help. The us is having similar issues and it runs a privatized scheme and profit motive of cutting costs. It's the supply of doctors and nurses. Also, I think letting patients go directly to specialists would clear up backlog too. If I'm having pain near my heart, I'd like to just go to the cardiologist straight away instead of gp who then schedules and appointment
An even greater number of patients than 7 million are waiting to be seen in France which only has a partly state funded health service! Please note. Similar population in UK and France
It's a supply of doctors and nurses issue. Same in the us and Canada. Doesn't matter the system: socialized, single-payer, dual-payer, private insurer. Doctors and nurses got shrewed last 4 years+
At this point in history it is questionable whether individual nation state governments or aligned nation state associations are capable of restoring economic stability for the common good of all citizens. Has the power of capital and its direct demands on governments subverted the various flavors of democracy in developed countries by high powered lobbyists and $$$ thereby supplanting and muting the influence of the majority of the voting public? The USA elected Bush billionaire capitals as presidents twice. No need for lobbyists there. Is the nation state going to evolve in order to resolve the extreme problems in our societies? Is Global + AI governance the next paradigm? Hope the UK gets what it needs.
No doubt the Conservatives lost the trust of the Electorate. Labour have won almost by default by the majority of protest votes received. You have to credit Starmer. He is well educated, he has forced out, disciplined or put under control the left wing militants of Labour. And has made some wise choices within his cabinet. We can only give Labour a chance?

That honestly sounds like the perfect candidate for someone to be running a country. Someone that understands international politics and is passionate about human rights.
Starmer is radical moderate.
He's a radical centrist labourist, but he's not what I would consider centre-left.
One of your best videos. Good work!
Even suggesting that kier starmer is a radical is hilarious
Starmer is just pure evil. If you don't know that by now I don't know what to say to you.
@@grdfhrghrggrtwqqu my man if u had the time to read both manifestos you probably would have noticed that the conservatives and labor are pretty much the same thing the only difference I see is improve trade relations with EU
@@blackhood1996 Uhh yeah, and he wants to tax the entire country into the middle ages.
Jeremy corbyn should join the social labour party and lead it. That labour party is actually truer to the classic labour party than the current neoliberal labour party.
If the classic labour party (the same one that saw the healthcare crisis of the 1940s and created the NHS) were around and in power today, they would have created the national housing and utility service (NHUS) where builders, realtors, etc are civil servants and homes are free to families and singles. The only responsibility for homeowners would be the council tax and upkeep.

Tories made one big error. The forgot that it is their duty was to deliver a conservative economics and not a popular one.
The question is: Will he provide mobile phone coverage to Britain? Nevermind 5G, any old G would do.
Starmer didn't do anything positive, the Tories are shot and everyone now hates them. That's the only reason why he's pm.
There's a big difference between being a man of the people and being a man for the people. If and absurdly wealthy person states that he is not one of them but one for them, he's going to get a lot more votes that way.
Most people didn’t vote for Labour, they just voted for anyone but the Tories.
He's going to print money.
The more left wing perspective is that the excessive austerity to cut debt when debt was low cost during the 2008 crisis destoried momentum in the economy. They did the opposite of what is needed in a financial crisis, (in the Keyensian sense) they needed to spend to sustain investment in the economy. If the British government wont invest in the economy why would private companies invest in the UK?
You forgot that almost everthing they done was in favour of there rich frends and donors.
As a British person, I deeply worry about the continuation of the UK. And I don't think labour is going to fix it. If our nation doesn't do something, our beautiful and kind country will rip itself apart.
I think Stammer will do something Good for UK
Good Luck👍and All the best to Stammer👍😊
Rishi Sunak a right wing populist? Making cringy tic Toks does not make one a populist and pretending to want to solve immigration but doing nothing does not make one right wing.
He is a populist, after all populist are nothing more than over hyped liars who just overdramatize existing problems and offer "solutions" that on paper sound good but in reality are nothing more than nonsense that they when in power never do and eventually due to their failure lose power, not before stealing millions and fleing

The real issue is politicians do not respect their position, they swore an oath with witnesses when becoming a member of parliament. Regardless of party there are always cover ups, lies, miss truths. There is no accountability for politicians, nor is there any accountability for the civil servants.
I don't think the public voted for the Labour party as much as they voted against the Tories if the Tories had done a better job I do not think the labor party would ever one
Who voted for the monster raving looney party and count binface?
Canadian here. Looks to me not like Labour won but the Cons lost. Big difference!
Very informative video the content was great but the music is too intrusive during the transitions, something softer will be better

It does have uk
The Conservatives haven't listened to their voters in decades. The Tories have governed no differently than Labour when it comes to hot-button issues like immigration and environmental regulation. Their interminable unwilling Brexit has managed to achieve the worst of both worlds, enraging everybody across the political spectrum. Eventually, people will stop voting against the opposition when voting for their own party does not get them the policies they most want. Long-standing one party rule has a bad habit of insulating parties from the interests of their voters, no matter your political ideology.
Actually, the grand cycle started by Thatcher, and Reagan seems to be in crash and burn mode.
Several points I'd like to add:
1. Starmer didn't really win many votes. He increased labour vote share by only 1.5% as well as the lib dems who won massivley with 0.7% vote share gained. The big problem for the conservatives is reform UK who gained almost 15 percentage points of the close to 20% vote share lost by the tories. This led to massive losses in the first-past-the-post system the UK has.
2. It's not that they did not have a plan for Brexit the whole campaign was populist and moronic. The plan was not bad because the Leave campaign drew up a fantasy world in which the EU would just continue giving all benefits without any responsibilities to the UK side. It was like expecing your girlfriend to still clean your house, do your laundry and have sex with you after breaking up. Also a lot of the campaign was build around factual lies like claiming a net spend to the EU of over 300 million which was below a third of that or claiming fishing zones that were not possible like that under international law.
3. Starmer funnily did the same as Scholz in Germany. Be quiet, basically promise the same things as the conservatives but just be less unlikely than their candidate. Though actually this is a worrisome trend in many western democracies where a lot of campaigns now only are about keeping someone worse out and people tend to vote to impede something than to cause actual change or vote for something they agree with. In the US Biden won on the grounds of keeping trump out, Starmer wins to end the Tories, Scholz won to keep the CDU/CSU from coming to power again, Macron won a lot of elections because the people don't want Le Pen and the last election was that to.
Good breakdown 😊
You've been way too kind to them.
Everything I know about Corbyn makes me grateful for the moderate American politicians like AOC and Bernie Sanders.
Kinda astounding how this video glosses over the most important factor: austerity politics aimed against working and the poorest people.
Activist and Lawyer all you need to know.
Talk about how reform got 3 million votes and only 5 seats
This, of course, assumes the government actually works for the people even thought that's a rarity these days.
Some shrewd points but drowned in a mire of lazy drivel making it obvious the real facts have simply not been researched.
What political shift. They are both centrist parties.
To be able to claim counterfactuals as facts is the realm of idiots
So basically same regime, but different face..
A centralist view is generally best for compromise. Both sides are unhappy but not outraged.
That’s issue in era of the internet and social media, the notion that my side is the correct way is delusional
There’s not enough difference between the two parties for my liking, but there’s still a significant difference. Enough worth voting for. Enough to feel cautiously optimistic.
@@christopherflux6254 pretty much where I'm at
I'm far more concerned of the total shit show that is coming here in November than what is happening across the pond in the UK.
In the US, we all thought Republicants were done after Bush Jr. Look what they came back with..... I hope for better for the UK.
I think it does not matter of who rule UK .. in UK there are problematic issue .. what I have observed was managing interventions and lying about their outcomes by questioning the affected individuals .. these are very classic and traditional practices .. so I think unless UK government will substantially change its course of conduct .. it will be subject to heavy trials and principle based consequences.
We are watching the death of a nation, sad really.
Hope it does not end like in Germany, where in 2021 the (center) right was punished for years of "misconduct" - only to by this point be even more angry on the "labor"+green+liberal coalition.
Those scandals (and way worse) just a regular monday in hungary
Hope he hammers down on immigration. The problem is really getting out of hand.
British post WW2 mentality outlasted Brexit, different story now.
“If you were British….?”
Please, no. 🤣
Sorry, no offense….or, no major offense, intended.
Tame inflation? lol he just changed the numbers and removed factors that affected inflation and said look inflation is down 😂
I hope now this new man will bring new changes to the rules especially related to immigration as people mostly the one who wanted to come in healthcare sector with dependents...waiting for quick responses from him on policies
Sunak was the best of them all considering what he was left previously.
Hey! Can you make a video about how Brexit could have worked? Just curious to see your ideas on this. Thank you
In my opinion, the very idea of Brexit was a bad one , and it was made worse by it being incompetently implemented.
Well the Tories did it to themselves. They did not have solid well thought out plans or even solid direction to lead the country in! It is as if they had never heard of such things. Waffeling about in every which direction in politics, ecconomics, industry and on and on. They never seemed to have any confidence either. We will have to see what we see. I doubt this will be a good move for the UK. The Tories where slowly marching into oblivion and I fear the Labour Party will more quickly charge into the same oblivion! We will have to see where things are in 12 month intervals! Things will either get better or worse for the country!
For sure Britain always has a plan but it's secret!
Brexit split the UK and I don't mean electorally. It nullified the act of union making it a shell document for Northern Ireland as it is now governed by a foreign power.
Was nice knowing ya UK, too bad you couldnt see your country being converted before your own eyes.
Hmmm, kind of like how the US goes back and forth between Republicans and Democrats.
What to expect? Lots of taxes.

Do you know what is going on with the german youtube channel VisualPolitik DE?
Starmer may want to really fix things, but how?? Taxing the rich I absolutely agree with.
However, as long as immigration is as high as it is….its over….
Immigration is a net contributor to the economy
If the Tories had got in again things would have got so bad migration would reverse direction.
@@neilrmartin1984Not certain if that is completely true. Overall immigration does increase things like GDP, but people's share of the economic pie might be less.
Let’s wait after a year
Let's see how well Labour can handle this debacle
Well they don't have an MP married to someone who's shit at computers. So that's 37 billion saved.
"what to expect" = nothing, one WEF stooge replaces another
Well I agree with Starmers position on education, if people been a little bit more aware and smarter they wouldn’t vote for brexit 👀🤣
Britain like France has fallen, jesus
Will the UK ever scrap its joke of a healthcare system?
Fully fund it would help. The us is having similar issues and it runs a privatized scheme and profit motive of cutting costs. It's the supply of doctors and nurses.
Also, I think letting patients go directly to specialists would clear up backlog too. If I'm having pain near my heart, I'd like to just go to the cardiologist straight away instead of gp who then schedules and appointment
It's first past the post, that needs scrapping.
Do you think with the new Labour party winning a majority, they will hold another Brexit vote to rejoin the EU? Is that even possible anymore?
You haven’t mentioned that the EU is doing worse than the U.K., so having stayed may have have made things worse than they are now
An even greater number of patients than 7 million are waiting to be seen in France which only has a partly state funded health service! Please note. Similar population in UK and France
It's a supply of doctors and nurses issue. Same in the us and Canada. Doesn't matter the system: socialized, single-payer, dual-payer, private insurer. Doctors and nurses got shrewed last 4 years+
@@Governor-General.of.Qanada ask yourself why
At this point in history it is questionable whether individual nation state governments or aligned nation state associations are capable of restoring economic stability for the common good of all citizens. Has the power of capital and its direct demands on governments subverted the various flavors of democracy in developed countries by high powered lobbyists and $$$ thereby supplanting and muting the influence of the majority of the voting public? The USA elected Bush billionaire capitals as presidents twice. No need for lobbyists there. Is the nation state going to evolve in order to resolve the extreme problems in our societies? Is Global + AI governance the next paradigm? Hope the UK gets what it needs.
[17:04] you forgot to mention "blatantly anti-semitic" 😮
No doubt the Conservatives lost the trust of the Electorate. Labour have won almost by default by the majority of protest votes received.
You have to credit Starmer. He is well educated, he has forced out, disciplined or put under control the left wing militants of Labour. And has made some wise choices within his cabinet.
We can only give Labour a chance?
Jaja, "I'm Homeless." You can't make this S h I t up. With that said, taxing the rich didn't' work in California. Most of them left and a lot of the middle class too.
this seems to be tendentious question, as the last govenment was radical!!
All recent governments are classified radical or far!
Won mote than 410 seats , yes 411.
Respectable? The pig poker?
Putin and Farage played them

They didn't do that good. seats are useless in the sence reform got 5 seats but 4mil votes and lib dem got about 70ish seats but less voats than reform .Labour got about 11 mil
