I'm 40, have a 2 year old daughter, a brain tumour and work in a supermarket. I'm tired. So tired of austerity, corruption, no dentists run down NHS, environmental tragedy. These people are horrific. I voted for Corbyn, but will vote for Starmer in the hope things might get better.
Solidarity and hang in there brother! I know it might not feel like it right now but better times are ahead. At least the rest of the country is finally seeing what we have always known about the Tories!
Get all of your friends and acquaintances to vote Labour or LibDems, whichever is appropriate in your area.
Im so sorry . I hope you will recover soon. You should not have to work while going through this
get back to work
I hope and pray you have a full recovery and are able to see your children grow into Adulthood. Ameen
My younger brother died last week after a battle with cancer, he was 62. if he had been diagnosed sooner I think he would have has a fighting chance. I am convinced that 12 years of Tory austerity was responsible. If ordinary working people vote for this lot again then we are done for. The Tory party is now devoid of any morals and unfit to govern.
I'm so sorry for your loss I'm pretty suicidal.... scared to desth
El Presidents, I am so sorry for your loss. I agree that austerity has hurt the country badly.
This !! A close family member has terminal , could have been found by a better funded NHS ,pre COVID mind you
How many more people must suffer like our relatives before people become angry and demand valuable change . Thing is cancer saps away so much energy and just leaves you emptier whilst politicians get fab healthcare and don't have to think about warmth during winter
@@rugby3431 Hang in there mate, it's always darkest before the dawn. I have a feeling change is coming.
@@concordep2504 Thank you for your kind words. The important thing is we keep fighting these zealots.
Never underestimate the Tory ability to spin, and the public's ability to forget.
Oh so true... and the power and influence of money.....
too many people read the gutter press and have their brains wiped everyday.
Everyone said the same thing 14 years ago.
They can spin but not hide.
yes that's true. but it feels like even if she gets out of this and we "all move on", there's no way to resolve the underlying conflict *within* the Tory Party. Most people who voted for Brexit wanted more national control in a way which benefitted ordinary people. But Truss and Kwarteng belong to the very small libertarian vanguard who see Brexit as the means to build some kind of Ayn Rand society of sovereign individuals (or whatever it is)... Red Wall vs Free Market fanatics. that's a dilemma that just can't be resolved. so there will be another crisis down the line, and then another and so on...
I visited a farmers market..it was literally deserted...give the lower tax payers a tax break, thd market is full...the farmers get more money to create jobs...the outlying coffee shops are full and can create jobs etc etc...give Tarquin a tax break and the money goes offshore..its very simple..trickle UP not down to kick-start the economy
Farmers don't create jobs they hire agency staff via a third party.
Poor people spend, rich people hoard. It's really basic economics. It should be taught in schools, and if it were, the Tories would never get a look in.
So simple, such thick people.
Exactly
True words.
Ignore Truss... Its the people who pull her strings that we need to be concerned about.
100%,,,listen to how she gives her responses to questions,, like on the several local radio stations she gave on air interviews too,, scripted and mechanical,, struggles to get her words out when diviating from her script answers and never answers the question,, goes off on a tangent,,, so I agree WEF pushing her buttons!!!

Labour are the same. When will people realize the end result will always favour the super Rich. Regardless of who's PM and what party. Waste of time supporting any they all going against their word and cave to the demands of the big corporations, and never favour the taxpayer

@@biggusdickus5986 if fighting for a higher power is what it takes that's what is needed
If Liz Truss has finished off the Tories' chances of getting reelected along with her own political career, then that's the defining achievement of her time as Prime Minister. Hopefully they'll be out of power for a generation now that the British public has *finally* seen through them.
Alli P Much !! can happen in the next two years ( next election) concerning both Conservative and Labour Party.
The public forget most things after no time at all ( just saying )
Anyway, Peace to all.
@@alankirkby465 the tory party won't be able to keep functioning for two years. Truss is gone, she just hasn't noticed yet. And when she goes the party will be in such a mess whatever D tear nobody they manage to get into the PMship, or Boris Johnson again, will be unable to do anything at they'll be spending all their time fighting off predatory journalists and their own back benchers. Next election will be 6 months from now at the latest
@@alankirkby465 no, they don’t forget and they don’t forgive. And can a lot happen in the next two years? Yes, most likely an early election as she can’t form a government, she doesn’t have the faith of her MPs (who most didn’t vote for her anyway, especially if you remove the votes she was lent by Sunak as he thought he could beat her). They can’t remove her for a year and she can’t get anything through Parliament. She changed her mind on this as she couldn’t get it passed, not anything to do with the market, the pound of the public being angry, it was that she can’t get any policy through. She has no mandate from the public, no mandate from her party for what she wants to do. She won’t last very long, the big question is will it be an election before or after Christmas. And what can happen between then? Based on her first actual week in the job, a whole lot worse for everyone
I wouldn't give the British public that much credit.
The Torys have the owner of Cambridge Analytica on their team
We need a General election, yesterday!
That would assume that The Tories have a sense of morality, they don't, never have had, either. 😐
She'll be cutting everything that helps the common people because she hasn't a clue what it's like to have a tenner in their pocket to last them for another week before the next payments
Yes to this, totally agree
Half the people on these comments are in the same bracket people can't afford to eat or heat their homes yet all they can go on about is their f£€$ing dentists!!
Of course, Truss is done for, most of us foresaw her ineptitude on top of everything else from before her elevation, it's just that things have fallen apart so quickly that we've forgotten this
Imagine how quickly things would have fallen apart had the Queen not died and delayed everything for the better part of two weeks.
@@chebghobbi Yup in power for a week wrecks the economy because just like Boris she made her name saying provocative statements but is notoriously bad at detail.
So basically just another cluekess narcissist that will say anything to remain relevant
@@chebghobbi LOL so true maybe they should have a world with Charles see if they can provide another distraction
No windfall tax. No banker bonus cap. Billions of borrowing to push inflation higher and to support war profits for fossil fuel companies. Higher domestic energy bills. Increasing amounts of fuel and food poverty.
Things are really going well if you are the 0.1%
I heard a Tory minister on radio this morning, he was saying that the UK had the second lowest debt of any developed nation and we could easily afford the 45% tax for the millionaires. Where was this reasoning during the last twelve yeats of Tory austerity.
its also interesting how at a time of rising interest rates borrowing to fund ongoing tax cuts is a perfectly reasonable policy. Where as when Labour proposed borrowing at record low, almost zero, interest rates in order to invest in making the country more productive and competitive it was a ludicrously irresponsible and reckless policy that relied on a nonexistent "magic money tree".
@@WhichDoctor1 Yet the Tories have now left the country with the highest ever level of national debt, and more debt than every Labour government historically combined, it’s safe to say previous Labour administrations were far more fiscally responsible than this current shower of a government
I will never understand why MPs are allowed to just lie to our faces. "Second lowest debt of any developed nation" I'd like to know where he got that from, because from a quick google our debt, for the first time in like 60 years is over 100% of our GDP and there's only a handful of other countries who's debt is that high.
@@Gohka thats right nearly as much as after the war it took clement Atlee a labour pm to get it down
So Truss wants growth :
She should rejoin the EU

I can't see Truss coming back from this, but I guarantee Boris will try to come back
This is the scenario that Dominic Cummings described - Truss is so monumentally useless (and dangerous to the country) that it would provide an opportunity for the return of Johnson.
During, during covid, not seeing grandma, Boris laughed over it. Who really wants Boris to damage the economy for cashless society and the mark of the beast. Obama.
Yep. It would play perfectly into his Churchill fantasy.
It would be very difficult for Johnson to come back without calling a GE. One discredited PM being replaced with another who was replaced with the first.

The Tories would bring back Victorian Workhouses if they got the chance. Rees Mogg would wear his Top Hat for the first opening of one.
The public are sick of getting crumbs that fall from the banquet table of the rich, Liz and her policies are destined to fail, just like the last 12 years of Conservative policies have failed us. They have this country in a wreck.
We need a competent government that will give the public a much better share of the cake.
Though I victoriana times the gentlemen would not stand for an upstart middle class boy wearing a top hat. Mogg isn't as posh as he'd like you to believe, and it terrifies him that you will realise he's from middle class stock. The aristocracy know this. And will never fully accept him, that makes Jacob sad.

The main thing stopping the return of workhouses is that nobody seems to have worked out how to make money out of them.

They did in Bojo for becoming an electoral liability. She's obviously an even bigger liability but it's difficult to do her in so soon after without looking like the big plonkers they are. Especially as she was voted in by party members. They will have to endure the embarrassment and humiliation until sufficient time has past to get rid of her. But how much damage will she have done by then?
They wibbled they wobbled then they we-versed 😂
She has to be reprogrammed each day (hour?) to respond to 'events' as she has no thoughts herself and is terrified to express any view lest it is instantly ridiculed. Unfortunately, the programmers are themselves hopeless.

She may keep her job, but she won't come back. The Tories have the choice of losing with Truss as leader, or losing with someone else
I certainly *hope* that Liz Truss has the shortest-lived premiership in UK political history. She deserves no less.
by midnight december 14 i make it, Canning i heard was 101 days.
What sickens me is that she will probably still get paid a ridiculous amount of money when she goes
.....sure you do Timmy boy.....
You can add to the £43 billion debt, £65 billion Bank of England Government bail out plus the now forgotten £55 billion Track & Trace fiasco plus £4 billion in Back to Business Loan Frauds. In reality the Government debt is not £43 billion it's a minimum of a £163 BILLION & increasing by the day in interest charges!
"If you remember, people were faced with energy bills of £6,000" How could anyone forget? It's the answer she and any Conservative spokesperson gives to ANY question they are asked.
The £2,500 cap figure is a lie.
And all due to Peeyutin.
So instead of a £6000 yearly energy bill people now only have to worry about £700 monthly increase in mortgage payments.
Clueless imbecile. While her chancellor is a smug chancer (possibly) gaming the markets. And her Home Secretary vile.
The 2500 cap is still twice as much as it was before
She leaves out " but we refused to claw any of it back from the fat energy giants, because what I'm about is rewarding my ex employers!"
People were faced with energy bills of £6,000 *because* of her refusal to implement a true price cap, like the 4% staturory-limited rise that was brought in, in France. (We've had 85% rise since 1 year ago).
James, would you start to talk about the necessity of PR. Withouit it the UK will just continue to headbang itself to oblivion...........
👏👏👍
As an aside, I have never understood this fuss they make over bankers' bonuses. At the risk of sounding thick, are we short of bankers? If so, why do we need to attract them with even larger bonuses when the ones in place are so huge? Do these elite few carry magic beans to fix us? And if I was a banker, looking for a job, the UK doesn't seem appealing for a dozen other more compelling reasons than a bonus. Don't we need more nurses than bankers? When will we start caring about people just as much as we care about money? Feels like society in general is circling the drain and we keep making the plughole bigger...
Agreed - perhaps we should ban tax for nurses and doctors which effectively would give them a decent pay rise and attract more.
@@bandit2048 maybe nurses but not doctors I work in removals and I have just moved a doctor from £1.2million house to £1.8 million house, nowhere near London I might add so I don't agree that doctors need more money nurses yes doctors no!!!

Atleast Sunak was intelligent and articulate. It's crazy how she only needed the "Sunak's wife is a billionaire who pays her taxes in India" to win than any credible knowledge of handling an economy.
Not that that I'm a fan of any Conservative - I'm not - but if that *is* what sunk Sunak, it only serves to illustrate the inherent racism of Conservatives and conservatives, flag-sh*ggers all.
To be fair, he didn't cover himself in glory, the longer it went on, the more desperate he became. Truss was consistently bad, Sunak was inconsistent, and at times he made her look sensible.
Articulate I'll give you.
Well even if Mrs Sunak was paying UK tax, with the policy Liz Truss just did a U-Turn on, it would have bought in a tidy extra sum of money with the scrapping of the extra 5% tax for the billionaire. So using that as an argument was ridiculous when she would have been putting extra money, literally millions, back into her pocket even is she was a UK tax payer.
She was always going to be helping the richest with all the extra benefits with taxation as well as bankers bonuses, no windfall tax, lower corporation tax, higher cap on energy as it’s still a 98% increase as opposed to 156% which isn’t even half the reduction. Plus she said for average households it will be capped at no more then £2,500 so that isn’t everyone. The Middle class is being obliterated so we will end up with two groups, the poor and the rich. No scales of in-between.
sunak never stood a chance in the uk, he is of indian origin and white people dont like that ..its that simple.they would vote in the devil himself , as long as he is white...in fact they already did...boris johnson
There is a serious problem in the UK and in other countries as well no doubt, but for years now, there has been an almost endless merry go round of talentless, incompetent, men and women moving through the board rooms of this countries major businesses. These people join companies whose business is something they know absolutely nothing about, they stay just long enough to be acrue huge ammounts of money, and then move on to another company, before they can completey decimate the fortunes of the company they are leaving. And the reason that I bring this up here, is because the same mentality and behaviour is also prevalent in Westminster. Especially in the Tory party, who's raison d'etre it seems, is to protect the idiots mentioned above.
Well said
Penny Mordaunt was not really 'in the Royal Navy', though she certainly likes to pretend that she was. She was a reservist, and then she was given an honorary rank as a result of her political activities. She never saw active service, though she likes to post pictures of herself in the uniform of her honorary rank. She is basically what is known as a 'Walt', someone who wants to use the armed forces to big themselves up, without having ever actually served... not very popular with those who have actually served!
Don't undermine the reserves, thats not fair.
Being a reservist makes you part of the Navy though? Not defending her, but if she got in as a reserve, she would have had to pass the same selection as everyone else wouldn't she?
Like Badenoch’s claim to have contributed to a book, only for the author to clarify that by saying she did some photocopying!
@@readmycomment3157 Not trying to undermine the reserves. I have family members who gave a lot as reserves. I also have family members who saw active service, and it's not the same thing. Mordaunt was a Sub-Lieutenant in the reserves... and if she kept saying that, that would be fine. But she likes to post pictures of herself in a Captain's uniform. To which she is also entitled... but on a purely honorary basis. Being given an honorary rank of Captain as a politician, and having put in time in the reserves, with a final rank of Sub-Lieutenant, does not amount to serving as a Captain in the Royal Navy.
There's no point trying to backtrack. You said 'she wasn't really in the Royal Navy'. How can she be a 'walt' when it was the navy who gave her the rank..idiot.. Walts are people who have no association with the military at all. Only someone like you who clearly doesn't have a clue can call a reservist and rank holder a Walt. Reservist have fought and died in nearly all our major conflicts. To suggest that reservists are not really members of our armed forces is not only offensive it's ignorant, ill informed and disrespectful.
Irony of her saying to listen to people, whilst not listening to the interviewer.
‘We’ve fixed that (the energy package)….You and your kids will pay for it 😂
Exactly why we need PR to put an end to this destabilising political pendulum.
Not much of a pendulum if it only keeps swinging between the Right and the Extreme Right.
But totally agree with you over PR.
She's certainly done for if she makes any attempt to cut benefits at a time when many people need them to help get them through this financial crisis. Then again, I wouldn't put anything past this lot.
Remember Andrew, people on benefits tend not to vote Conservative. She need not pander to, or care about them.
The issue that frightens her is the potential backlash from working people who also now rely on a top up with UC just to survive. The working people also will not get any inflation proof rise in their paypacket. Wages have not kept up with the cost of living in decades in real terms. Finally, the Tories have introduced more tax rises and new taxes in living memory. Remember Osborne's 'pasty tax'?..People will respond when kicked too hard too often.
@@timeslip6914 Too many people on benefits don't vote and some do vote conservative, working in a manual unskilled job I have been very surprised by the number of conservative supporters in that workplace. Given that a lot of them would be better off if Labour's planned budget was implemented it is unfathomable that people support ideal ologies that work completely counter to their own wellbeing.
@@fishmanfairclough7530 There are some non Tory voters who don't vote for any party agreed, but I think some non Labour voters fear the policy on immigration, which has been, undeniably a major bone of contention when the subject of illegal , dare I say, 'boat people' are concerned.
Mr Jame O'rien, a gratefully desired and received articulate head to the heart of every Humanitarian.
GET HER OUT! How dare she target and vilify our most vulnerable people. How dare she make the poor fund tax cuts for the rich. How dare she plunge us back into austerity to pay for the £65 BILLION she has just added to our national debt. She is inept, cruel, unfit and needs to go.
I 💯 agree
Australian welfare payments just increased in September by about 6%, as a result of current inflation figures, plus every year for the last few years there has been extra one-off cost of living payments. It’s not great of course, but it sure is a lot better than many, many countries.
She also just keeps banging on about what she's done about the energy cap, but our tariff ended Wednesday and the best we've been offered anywhere is £580 a month that's 6960 for the year. Although we've got my mum living with us now we're still only 3 adults and 2 kids so just over th "typical household". Her trademark cap is a lie, why should we believe a word that comes out of her mouth?

Always a pleasure to listen and learn.
The rudder has fell off but she's still full speed towards the iceberg straight ahead.
27 days since Liz Truss and Keir Starmer faced each other for the first, and at the time of writing only, time
27 days since Tory MPs came away from that thinking things would be alright. That she’d acquitted herself well. That she’d be a problem for Starmer
27 days
And how much has changed
Thing is in that first PMQs it was all "Congrats on becoming PM" and a only 3 questions from Starmer. He couldn't call her out on to much as she'd only been in the job 5 minutes and hadn't even made her speech declaing intentions. Yes, she did OK but it was barely a warm up and her line about how Labour tax everyone wouldn't have held up if there'd been time for Starmer to push back. It takes a few back and forths before they get off the script and that's where she will always struggle.
Don't kid yourself. I have a friend who is a staunch supporter and a rabid fan of the mini budget. Mind you he was a fan of the last disaster too and still talks about him in hushed tones. I despair of people like that.
As long as people like that are a minority, civilisation will survive. Leave them ranting in the corner and talk to normal people instead 🙂
I hope you're correct but take into consideration how long they allowed Johnson to carry on his insanity.
Anyone who replaces her has the political shelf life of milk🤣
Phil, I feel for we have a person like you in our family and it isn’t fair. Stay strong, rest when you can and try to not let all this other stress make you Iller. I hope things get better for you.

Hi Liz, thanks for coming!
Interesting what is said about culture wars. Think people finally recognise it for the distraction and attempts to polarise that they are. I recall working somewhere with appalling conditions and we hated the management, but when things were better staff fought amongst themselves. Think it is so bad the same is happening here.
How did the blue rinse brigade not notice her ineptitude,WE could ALL see it,but how enjoyable.All l heard before the contest was the unbelievable talent they had in cabinet,mind you it was James unCleverly who said it,so . . .

were both in his Cabinet but didn’t complain then about the ‘slow managed decline’. Johnson constantly said our economy was booming and the best in the G7. He wasn’t lying, was he.
12 years of the Tories.
@@bluecatbabe Hi Sarah - thanks for your comment - needless to say, you’ve nailed it Best wishes
Yes she's shown the Tory agenda for what it is
'He's a young Conservative ", and "he's a lovely bloke". Two incompatible statements.
The James O'Brien Show - the reason your radio has an off button 😁
I noticed the little scrolling text about Suella Braverman's bonkers and bigoted refugee "Blanket Asylum Plan". I'm surprised that James hasn't brought that up; I know it's not the main point but how is it possible that the Tories appointed a worse Home Secretary than Priti Patel??
Yikes scary stuff, thanks for telling 👍🏽
I'm certain her pathetic purposals breaks international law and be another huge blunder 🤦♂️
So right about the daily mail trash paper
"I'm determined to progress with this gross plan". At least that what it sounded like to me.
zannfilm: Me too! Freudian slip or did we hear mishear her?
Me too, but no doubt her supporters will claim that her words were "misrepresented".
Great listen
Must watch before it gets taken down
Are we just ignoring James has the biggest cup I have ever seen ? 🤣. Totally agree with everything james says 👏
Going, going, gone... (That'll be a headline in one of the newspapers soon enough.)
You're absolutely correct. She's toast.
I wonder how much Boris was behind all this.......🤔
Does this mean the Truss honeymoon is over?
For it to be over would assume there was one to begin with
Not sure if it even had time to be consummated... we want an annulment!
This must be the worst honeymoon ever! It doesn't bode well for the rest of the marriage
Why don't you come or send someone to us on the picket line at Lewisham college on Thursday or Friday this week? It will be much appreciated! We can do with your understanding and support on our planned 10 day strike. 🙏🏿 MC
Well the problem she lost trust in her party
I don’t trust what they say
Sick and tired of it
Its like putting a 'kid' in charge
If she’s willing to do more U turns then we need to keep putting pressure on her
"I'm not going mad am I..." So welcome to the club. Here in America so many of us independents just keep asking ourselves that very same question for 10 years around our Republican party's so called 'plan' for governing.
As Rory Stewart said Kwasi was a wrong un even by the time he got to Eton , just wouldn't change
his mind even when proved to be wrong .
Thats not quite what he said
@@readmycomment3157 Which Part ?
@@martinobrien7110 I don't think he said he was a wrongun
As much as I want to laugh at it all, I'd just be laughing at my own and along with it the countrys demise.
Yes!
Is she finished? Well in this country anything is possible! .......
How sad that the pensioners were willing to tag along with the low rate of pension. The price to the government is the tripple lock. When the rate of inflation was stagnent and cost so little its not threatened . As soon as they need the protection of the tripple lock , theres talk of removing it . Shameful
The head civil servant in the treasury - Liz and Kamikaze didn't want to listen to him, so they sacked him.
James that mug you have is a belter, where would I find one of them?
Great video
'That would be an ecumenical matter' = 'I don't accept the premise of your question'
Yes
Love the way James tries to give the impression he is only vaguely aware of "Splash".
He is only vaguely aware of splash.
I used to buy a gallon of petrol to get to work, 20 cigarettes and a couple of pints of beer in the pub on the way home, all heavily taxed. Now the government says, stop smoking, stop drinking and drive an electric car. Where will the government get thier money from 🤔
YES
don't forget Lizzys leaked tape. it's all relevant to her crusade
She is Ambivalent and a PM can not be so .....plus she only cares about the rich ain't no doubt about it!!!!!!!
Mr. O Brien we asked the same questions of Trump..."how did he get away with it for so long"
