They made people suffer for the past 14 years.
the public backed the suffering for 14 years
He is still doing it.
Until interest rates come down people are feeling the pain.
This has gone quiet, take back control of the BOE and use it for the people.
More tax is not the best plan and that is why they propose.
Take care M.
@@stequality no they didnt. only 30odd percent of the country even voted for the tories.
Yep 14 years of Socialist Policies on top of the rubbish from Blair has just about ruined this country.
There’s money available but it’s in the accounts of Tory thieves who stole the PPE money.
No prosecution either just written off by Fishi Rishi, hands in the till.
Liar
And got away with it,cos of back handing gov
@@westcoast747 thats cos we leant his wife hundreds of thousands and gave her shitloads of furlough before she closed the company down. why are we loaning rich women money anyway?
Advise to say allegedly until they're in the nick
It's been so obvious for years, yet why are people so slow.
Because they haven’t felt the pinch until now, the conservatives have finally wealth distribution to the 1% had finally started to take the wealth from the “upper middle class “ voters who are the core swing voters
My thoughts exactly
Us Brits are so to anger, wake up people.
Good riddance to bad rubbish!
He seriously needs to face trial, not just face getting kicked out of his seat.
Not a fan of Hunt. But what has he done that's jail worthy?
Who would honestly vote Tory after the damage they have done to the UK????
A few years ago we said the same about Liebour. Two cheeks of the same ar$e imo. Surrounding a green hole whilst liberals hover around it.🤮
Rich Tory MPs view £10,000 in the same way many people view 1 Pence.
There are more than a few multi millionaire Labour MP's including Saint IKEA Starmer who is reportedly worth between £5 to £7 million. Another "Champagne Socialist".
@@dragonfly6908 The richest Tory MPs in the Tory cabinet led by Rishi Sunak have a combined personal net worth over £500 million.
Look at the front bench of both party’s. Most take in expenses, what millions of people would see as a small fortune. That should be stopped. Second homes, ‘cause they can’t be expected to take public transport, pay energy bills, pay for restaurants or even pay for a paper clip. That honour goes to the tax payers.
So does multi millionaire Labour leader Starmer
@@tommay1959 It's what Starmer does as PM that counts. If he was just in it for the money he would have joined the Tories.
I'm delighted that, for the first time in my life, I'm probably going to vote for a winning candidate. And helping to give Mr Hunt the Order of the Mighty Boot just sweetens that feeling even further!
Do it for all of us not voting in your constituency!
Unfortunately Lib Dems are just as bad the media quickly buried Ed Davey and also the evil Tony Blair's role in the Horizon scandal
Everyone remember the current state of the NHS was exactly Hunt's plan - he did it on purpose - not budget problems, ON PURPOSE
Liar
6yrs tipping up the NHS , then Sunak ‘rewards’ him with the key to the treasury. Giving millions of people another kick in the teeth.
What did you spend your handouts on then?
Jeremy Hunt is one of the slimiest politicians to have ever sat in Parliament. I hope they kick him out, don’t care who for.
Ache Hunt .
“He is, without doubt, the thickest man in a suit that I’ve ever had a conversation with. There is nothing going on behind the eyes. It’s like trying to get through to a mollusc in a coma"
Well said
🥱🥱
@@IMBlakeleyHe always looks like he's had a spike rammed up somewhere, as if he's suprised! Not as siprised ad me when Sunkarse gave him his job😱
0:43 “I’ll probably be switching, just because it’ll probably be better for our family.”
Sums up the average Tory voter very nicely.
Was a union member for years but doesn't trust them. That just didn't make sense at all.
Only conservatives say conservatives are sensible...he just proved that theory is absurd. They even had to make up a minister of "common sense" and chose the only Tory Scouser in the universe to head it up.😂
I expect he was happy to take whatever the union won for him though.
@@Geffo555Yes a living wage and better conditions, what's your problem ?
@@delcamelot That was actually my point. Perhaps I phrased it wrong.
A boomer willing to pull the ladder up behind them? I'm shocked. Shocked I say
Because he is a traitor to this country.
Grow up.
@@T5Zplayercry about it
Come on voters let’s get Hunt out .
I can think of a different surname
god i hate how gormless some tories are
Compared to the intellectual giants like Rayner and Abbott?🤣🤣🤣
@T5Zplayer Stammer too.
Not nice but dim
They are not stupid. They are stashing as a loads -a-money for themselves. Why? They are rich enough to retire. Why the Need for Greed. How many donate to charities?
@@lizfuller400 🤣🤣🤣🤣
There is no such thing as a safe tory seat in this election.
PM Rishi Sunk’s seat is safe.
@@johnmartin7158 Not really, while the electoral calculus does say the tories will likely hold on to that seat the predicted majority is just 2.1% down from 47.2% in 2019. It won't take much more for him to lose it
@@noah_9790If he did lose it, he'd be the first sitting PM ever to lose his seat in a GE.
Yes, totally agree... After 14 years of all this amazing incompetence.... I am beginning to wonder if there is such a thing as a ' safe Tory seat ' any longer... Quite possibly, any seat with a majority of 15,000 could be a ' marginal ' at the coming General Election... Looking forward to a LOT of ' Portillo ' moments, as the results come in..... Exciting, isn't it ?
@@perolagrande Bring it on!
I am waiting for the Portillo moments on the 4th/5th of July. I will be glued to the TV
Yes... Might be worth recording it all... Could be very entertaining ?... I think there could be a LOT of ' Portillo ' moments.... Justice at last !
Shame that so many Tories are standing down and not defending their seats - including Michael Gove, Kwasi Kwarteng, Dominic Raab, Sajid Javid, Bill Cash, John Redwood and over 70 others.
@@timonsolus Yes, interesting list of ' the usual suspects ' there... Actually, last century, I always thought that Bill Cash was one of the very few, that we might call ' a good one '.... But now, as I have asked elsewhere, ( and with no answer from anyone ) can anybody out there, please give the name of ANY of the 650, who might be considered to be doing a good job ?
It's ironic that Portillo always came across as decent, hard working and eloquent, unlike Hancock and Boris.
@@onecupof_tea Actually, as someone who remembers the ' Thatcher ' years, and even earlier.... AND as I am a bit of a steam train fan... I do still have some respect for Michael ' chuff chuff ' Portillo, as it was due to him, that he encouraged Thatcher to NOT close the Settle to Carlisle famous railway line, and helped preserve the world famous Ribblehead Viaduct... So, in all honesty, I cannot think of ANY other politician, who has done anything, which we could call ' good for Britain '.....
Good news
Not really. He'll get to walk away, free from his own mess.
I don't think Liebour are good news.
It's great news. People are finally seeing the Tories for what they are.
A bit hard to miss after the last few years.
I've spent fifty years trying to understand the mindset of people who vote Tory, the kindest thing l can say is stupidity.
What a complete Jeremy.
He and his friends have performed many cunning stunts....maybe they will pay this time round and have to get another job. Jeremy will be ok - he can get a placement at the Chinese Embassy.
Jeremy Hunted down...
Tory is the Anglicisation of the Irish word toiraidh, literally 'pursued men' or more figuratively 'men on the run'.
@@bobmason1361 Our British public must be educated on this definition...
I love the irony, interest rates were lowered in Browns government in about 2008 as a means of keeping the economy going after the financial crash caused by casino banks in the US... The tories reaped the benefit and popularity of that for 12 years whilst blaming Brown for crashing the economy.... Then Truss crashes the economy all by herself, and causes interest rates to rise back up, causing a cost of living crisis and everyone who was having a nice time of it switches away from the tories...
The money flowing establishments, no longer agree with your assessment of Truss.
I think truss had a better idea, but the BOE didn’t so they instigated getting rid of her.
Look into it and see what they did.
If it isn’t Trusses way the it’s more and more tax as per Hunt and that is a disaster.
Lower interest rates, economy recovers and have a bigger tax intake from that, not by raising tax’s.
Take care M.
It is a cost of lockdowns crisis!
Brown initiated austerity. Brown did not lower rates, he had given control to the BoE 10 years before. Brown ran up huge public debts knowing our grandchildren would be paying them off
@@user-zz9gn2dc3l So says Sunak. Along with a load more tripe.
Good
Tories out
“I’ve been a union member for years but still wouldn’t trust the union” perfect example of pulling the ladder up and leaving everyone behind. Extremely selfish and small minded.
Taking the benefits off the back of others blood, sweat and tears. The worst type of work colleague.
The sooner the hunt goes the better. He doesn’t give a toss about pensioners. State pension is £505 per month. Can anyone live onthat out there. Thieves the lot ic them. Reducing the NI % did not help the pensioners at all. I hope karma will visit him soon.
I am almost certain that the former Labour Prime minister Gordon Brown raided pensions.
Why is your state pension so low ? The secret to a comfortable retirement is to have more sources of income than just the state pension.
Anyone who failed to do this only has themselves to blame.
He needs not only to lose his seat but face real repercussions from the people he has hurt.
Hunt who forgot to declare the purchase of 7 luxury flats in Southampton in 2016, he response was 'it was an honest mistake' and today he will be pushing Labour on whether they will rise stamp duty? I guess if they do, it will affect the profits on future profits.
same Hunt who increased the rent of those flats ABOVE inflation whilst telling us plebs we very naughty for asking for pay raises
“I was a union member for years, but I wouldn’t trust the unions.” A classic example of someone who a) talks themselves out of what works to their advantage or b) was happy to take the benefits of something but wouldn’t want other people to enjoy the same benefit.
Right wing governments are built on the mindset of voters like that.
Tories aren't right wing . They are more like labour . Under Tory still benefit Britain big time . PIP =..couch potato allowance etc .
He is my MP. I will not vote for him
They're only against jeremy hunt because his actions have hurt them this time.
They had no problems with him when his actions harmed poorer people.
my seat is always under threat from my cat
Mike Hunt*
🤣
I don't get it
@@physis8981
It rhymes with a four letter curse word that starts with C.
I believe that, on one interview on TV, he did actually joke... ' It's just as well that my parents didn't choose the name ' Michael ' for me... Otherwise people would call me Mike Hunt.... '
@@richardruff8712 🤣🤣
Just watched Sophia ridge give the tories a party political broadcast. How biased Really sad. She is not strong enough
I was in a trade union I don’t trust them🤡🤡🤡
Hunt should never have been chancellor in the first place, must be the worst chancellor this country's ever had, good ridance to him in four weeks time.
My vote for worst chancellor goes to George Osborne. Austerity. What the eff was that about? That tanked the economy and the spare money wasn't there for the pandemic when we needed it. PPE out of date, not enough hospitals or front line staff, told to clap for an NHS they were decimating. Could go on.......
Just three weeks and two days now. 😁
Don't forget it was his fault we had no PPE in the pandemic he was warned a few years before
Duke of Westminster has 10 billion....WHY ! take 5billion off him and fix the NHS.. not as if it will change his quality of life but it would improve millions of ordinary peoples lives
Ive always considered he has a very unpleasant vindictive streak in him, I imagine he will tread on and over anyone to further his gnarly career and it looks like his constituents have finally realised he's in it for himself.
I've always said that's Hunt with a C. It's really frightening to think of him as a doctor: people who are meant to care about others.
Good. He needs to be in jail.
If the tories are left with less than 50 seats…. That would be a good time 😇
Hear hear! That’s what we need - the Tories reduced to fewer seats than the Lib Dems. It’s possible if people living in constituencies where their favourite party is unpopular vote tactically. There’s no point voting Lib Dem in an area where Labour are more popular, and vice versa. Likewise, there’s no point voting Green except in the 3 or 4 seats where they are very popular.
I think every conservatives seat is under threats. Wasted 14 years.
Yes, totally agree... After 14 years of all this amazing incompetence.... I am beginning to wonder if there is such a thing as a ' safe Tory seat ' any longer... Quite possibly, any seat with a majority of 15,000 could be a ' marginal ' at the coming General Election... Looking forward to a LOT of ' Portillo ' moments, as the results come in..... Exciting, isn't it ?
He hasn't achieved anything in his career
Oh now come on he has....he's caused chaos in the NHS and then went on to cause misery to every tax payer in the country.😱
Except enrich himself
and he got rid of the emergency stock piles of PPE in order to save money.
Jeremy? Gone? I can hardly bring myself to contemplate this nightmare scenario.
People are tired of the political mafia and the corrupt media
"I've been a Union member for years but wouldn't trust them really" - Most stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Huck Funt
His seat is under threat because his pants are on fire.
He wants booting out taxing all old age pensions hes a disgrace
Hopefully ,there is justice
14 years and they blew it!
Tory is the Anglicisation of the Irish word toiraidh, literally 'pursued men' or more figuratively 'men on the run'.
I used to live there, never voted for Hunt. The LD have come close before when the ghastly Bottomley was MP, reckon they will do it this time the LD candidate is a good guy and Hunt is rhyming slang.
Why would anyone vote for Hunt in that constituency? Failed Health Minister and failed Chancellor. Kick him out.
Surprise! Surprise!
One thing for sure that's not getting cut is MP'S Salaries
Funny. I thought he had a different last name, based on what I've heard some people say.
In terms of people saying its just Tories voting for lockdown its not all the parties backed it. Vote Reform UK
Reform is a COMPANY that wants to end your NHS.
Tactical voting is the key in these seats !
People read the workers of Britain party manifesto.
Oh this would be so sweet..... the chancellor out of a job. Good bye love...
Has dubious links to CCP
Old people voted Brexit now they’ll stick with Conservatives.
Looks like age requirement to vote should be at both ends of the spectrum.
Politicians cannot and will not be all the answers to our life problems and thats a guarantee. We need to change our life choices and make hard decisions moving forward.
I'm tactically voting Lib Dem (he's my mp). Around here can only see lib dem placards at houses, not seen one tory placard yet.
Same here 👍
Come on Lib Dems
Don't mention The Post Office to Ed Davey.
@@dragonfly6908 This is more of a gotcha than anything substantial, because Ed doesn't really have anything bad against him except for this, and there is so much more material to criticise Keir starmer and Rishi sunak on, as well as Fartage. Shame our media is so biased that for the lib dems to get in the papers they either have to do something that can be used against them, or if they do something mildly funny
@@kingpig8732the lib dems backed up Cameron and organized the unnecessary austerity. People have no memory
Switch to Reform not Labour
Vote for the Citizen Independents or The Workers Party of Britain to end the reign of the Uniparty Criminal Collective!!!
What a horrible hunt Jeremy Hunt is.
Hunt the traitor
Jeremy Hunt should be under threat, not his seat
The crazy part is he got voted in, people chose him, what does that say about the opposition.
Tik, tok, tik, tok, the Torries are toast....hurragh
Such a dearth of critical thinking out there (not that it's surprising). No one ever questioning the system itself.
They could always source their Brie from a cheaper supplier
Hunt is the chump who believes £100K/yr isn't enough to live on.
I don't know anyone who voted Conservative, changing to Labour as they have more sense than that, but i do know lots that are voting Reform as it's what the Tory party should be.
I love 'Lib DEms' and the smaller parties line. No bias there then! Regorm are currently ahead of the Lib Dems in many polls, the gap may increase given that Nigel has returned to the fold.
If only every Tory seat had a reform candidate.....
Your right there is no more money left! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
3:01
ALL OF THEM. Get them all out. Tory and Labour. Clean break, new beginning. 70 years of misrule. Vote REFORM,start making a difference.
Reform is a COMPANY that wants to end your NHS.
This generation's Portillo moment
Remember Cornwall.
Where's my reply gone ???????????
Liberty they should be losing not seats !
The country has loads of money., they just don't account for it. It's a billion here a billion there now, not millions. Where does it all go?
Mates and subsidising corporate tax rates for grunts like Rees-Mogg.
not all bad news then , Hunt should have been charged with insurrection when he conspired with the EU to thwart brexit and still does ,Britain is proven to be better off out of the EU just by the immigration divisions and problems we saw coming years ago and Britain is stronger financially now also despite the EU's efforts to undermine our growing stability ,labour will ensure greater financial and trade to Europe and this will be politically detrimental to the UK as the EU is about ever more rules and control not sovereignty ,many EU countries are kicking back on many fundamental issues of sovereignty and financial autonomy ,and never forget the 1000 million pounds we paid the EU EVERY MONTH for club membership ,it is vital we vote for any party that will not sent us back to the woke dark ages as labour will and conservatives off no different
Woke dark ages. Oxymoron as woke is enlightened to other peoples feelings
@@neilmachon9828 In your woke eyes maybe, not in the real world of the majority ,minorities and do nothings think they are in charge,An oxymoron is a figure of speech that combines contradictory words with opposing meanings, like “old news,” “deafening silence,” or “organized chaos.” Oxymorons may seem illogical at first, but in context they usually make sense.
We paid approx 7 billion every year to the eu.
Cant vote tory .labour or liberal have not voted for any of them for a few years now but will give reform a try
^^gonna be a mug and help end the NHS
he put 100,000 pound in to help his campaign shame
Aw JC, enjoy your directorships, yes I mean JC
VOTE REFORM UK
I don't think the LibDems will do anything to stop the boats and protect our borders.
Just their name gives their identity away. Liberal means
- Generously tolerant
- Broad minded
- No holds barred
- Tolerate everything
Always money for the boat men though. Foreign wars etc. Vote for Reform instead for some sanity.
They spelt 'hunt' wrong..... its spelt with a 'c'...😂
I’m a Conservative - I would never vote for Hunt or Sunak.
His nickname is well-deserved. But imagine what it says about Liz Truss that a man so hateful and incompetent was set up as her caretaker after she tanked the UK economy.
Was that a Canadian flag?
It’s amazing how the poor always vote themselves porer
New Portillo Moment?
What a nasty hunt he is.
