An empty Tory front bench speaks volumes. Spineless the lot of them.
LIKE THE GOP
Bye, bye Bojo. Don't let the door slam you on the way out... Take your spineless cohorts with you. And don't think demanding the HOC should honour any promises would have any effect. Give `em all a jail sentence and then ONLY remove it when they prove themselves innocent...
Oh no Jonathan, that's just because there's none left..
@@huflungdung9334 Even when the Tory Front bench appear the people are empty of Integrity, professionalism and accountability.
The filth and the fury
The fact she sat alone on the front bench speaks volumes of this spineless government
They don't give a 💩
Eye on the prize.
👍🏾
Wouldn't be surprised if it's a way to appeal to the public for the next general election. I believe she will stand for PM, but I hope they don't stay in government.
c'mon - she boasted of saying "cock"umpteen times in the House just to please the navy ladz in her constutuency - she has no authority to preach smug legalese to MPs and the people. So sanctimonious.
Where is the Prime Minister? Or was he too gutless to open the debate? My God he's weak.
Yep! That's what’s coming across. He’s WEAK...
Clearly..
It's the job of the Leader of the House, not the PM, to move this kind of motion. There only needs to be one front bench speaker to move any motion or respond to questions on any given item of business.
The lack of front benchers - or relatively few number of MPs on one side or another - doesn't mean they aren't all going to vote. In Hansard, one can often see that although televised proceedings show few in the chamber, when matters come to a division there are suddenly a lot of names on the lists: MPs don't have to attend a debate in order to vote on whatever matter arises from it.
Unfortunately he had to suddenly attend a foreign leader (which he'd arranged in advance (suddenly)).
The almost empty Conservative benches speaks louder than any words can. They should all be held complicit in Johnson guilt.
I'm with Boris wink wink now let's see how this circus will play out
Why though, for not buying into the melodramatic covid propaganda?
Still no proof of his guilt by the kangaroo court
Shame none of the Tories stood up for the public when it mattered. All happily defending and cheering their corrupt lying leader for their own benefit.
It's not surprising that hardly any of them showed up. My question is why is Jacob Reese smog? Is it comic relief is it just a distraction so that you don't pay attention to what's being said because I couldn't help but notice he was on his phone while she was making her oration. Aside from the insanity he spews when he's interviewed he's a worse than Boris lurking in the wings.
@Lummy62 Go away, Boris
@@rogerdogger6969 : Well, being on your phone, or appearing to be otherwise disinterested in proceedings, is his way of showing, “contempt,” without being, “controversial,” toward what he must think of as his Nemesis. He wants to be PM and still thinks that’s a possibility (in his warped imaginings in which the Ghost of Victorian Rent Boys Past get handed jobs like that out of sheer entitlement) and he knows that Penny Mordant is the most likely candidate for that job.
Not that it will shake out like that at all, because Sunack will cling to his position at the top of the greasy pole until his party is landslided out of power altogether. Mordant will end up as leader of the opposition (or perhaps even the third party, if this tactical voting campaign I keep hearing about gets enough traction?) and she’s far too competent to be shaken by a d*ck like him.
I’ve been asking myself, “Why is he a thing?” in modern politics at all in this day and age, for years now? And I can only conclude that it’s something to with the British love of, “eccentricity,” and, “personalities,” but we’ve all seen what real world harm THAT can do to a country’s prospects, so I also seriously HOPE we’ve learned our lesson!? He is HOSTING political talk shows on television, FFS! That’s supposed to be ILLEGAL for MP’s! He should be next on this committee’s list!
@@Lummy62 No, they didn't even do that. They sat on the fence by abtaining.
@@rogerdogger6969 Jacob is talking but direction is from Boris
So much for Rishi and his promise about truth and transparency. Most of the Conservative Benches are empty, they are afraid to vote
No integrity
Or there all getting a subsidized piss up in one of the few Westminster bars. Line of coke thrown in for good measure! C#$t's !!!!
Busy filling their pockets as fast as possible
They know the jig is up
@@mrD66Mit’s game over dude. Game over
Rishi lies like Boris
They all backed the liar until he was finally rumbled, they all knew he was lying but while he was getting away with it they went along with it.
Exactly. They stood up and lied in our faces in defence of him. They are equally complicit.
They all knew this went on.
They are all to blame.
Remember that the next time you vote!!!!!
This is like when a group of criminals are caught in a bank heist they try and distance themselves from the leader as much as possible even though they are all equally guilty.
It's not like they are a gang of criminals, they ARE a gang of criminals.
Nice to see the front bench busy "delivering for the British people"
Whatever her reasons, I am still glad she is making this decision to vote this way
She is making a bid for leadership that’s obvious ,pity she and her colleagues supported and remained silent when the country needed them.
I actually agree with you on this . Just goes to show how low a snakes belly is
Looks like Penny is angling to be Leader of the Opposition when they lose 2024
if?
If they lose?
@@EntertainmentFilms26 when, it's pretty much certain now
She would be at home with the Labour Lite !
Tory's are going get wiped out there going be small party in 10 years..
Congratulations to Penny Mordaunt for showing leadership and honesty, I am not a supporter of this government but I hope her political party will value her commitment to truth in politics.
😂😂 honesty not a chance ,there all the same
@@kevinjackson6387 my quite, she showed her compassion at the beginning of a response to the shadow leader of the house when she echoed thoughts of those involved in the Grenfell fire and ALL THOSE WHO LOVED THEM not the usual family and friends, I think she shocked herself that she had actually poured out her real feelings
@@MiPointIs sorry I don’t believe a word that comes out of their mouths
@@kevinjackson6387 True to her word Penny Mordaunt has voted in favour of the report, I think there were about 115 Tory MPs who voted likewise
@@MiPointIs hahah trying to save her own skin ,there all rotten to the core sooner there gone the better
Clearly Penny thinks she still has a political future to preserve.
She deserves it. She's freaking amazing.
Odd comment.
Are you so very cynical that you view integrity as negative?
Where was her attitude duing the lockdown parties and general Tory shambles of the last few years ?
Well criminal do have a code
Lets me honest; For the right, voting in favour of this motion, however warranted, was for the most part political suicide. I am a left / centrist and respect the attitude displayed by Mordant and May on this motion completely.
Absolutely appalling to see no other front bench Tory members in the house of Commons - another example of their cowardice to face up to what has been going on.
All credit to Penny Mordaunt though, who spoke very well I thought. I was very pleased to hear her say it is not just about the disrespect shown to the House of Commons and all MP's but also the huge disrespect shown to rest of the population of the United Kingdom.
I think the vote should have been mandatory for all MP's and how they voted been made public. They are supposed to represent their constituents and I'd be very surprised if many decent citizens would not agree with the committee findings.
If they vote not to accept the findings they should be tasked to provide a written explanation of this to their constituents. The same would apply if they chose to abstain, which is tantamount to saying they disagree with the findings of the enquiry but are too concerned about their own future to "rock the boat".
Imagine how much time and tax payer money could have been saved if Bojo had stepped down instead of lying. Imagine if there was a law that required him to step down. We wouldn't see this again - which we almost certainly will.
he lied because he thought the House would believe him!
He should be asked and forced to pay the money spent in layers back to us, the taxpayers. He is guilty and he is a criminal!
The taxpayers money should and must be returned immediately, if not then this is a disgraceful
outrage and complete contempt for the taxpayers.
@@alfonsohorcajada4399 hee hee ha ha , he would never in a million years be convicted for having a piece of cake at a get together , not a party
@@bigbinji6145 he got done for lying to parliament, not for having a piece of cake
I'm glad she has stood up to be counted she has more balls than Sunak.

Well done Penny Mordaunt.
If integrity mattered they would revoke his honours list.
Strange how they like to pick and scoff at the little people, but when the tables turn, they begin to disperse.
That says it all , every one of them should go !
Tackle the donors in Politics and you will weed out the corruption.
The problem isn't the donors, it's the voters who put these ****s there.
The house of common criminals laughing their heads off knowing that they will never suffer the consequences of their actions.
Jasus, Naddine will defo be on the Gin this evening 😂😂😂😂😂
Integrity only matters if you get caught.
Seriously, stop voting for the Tories
At least Penny Mordaunt can see the bigger picture and the Tory future. She will be the choice of Leader when this Party of Fools wake up!
If this was a person employed in any normal job, they would not be subjected to a vote to see if they could still have a key to the social club, after found lying to thier boss and then bullying the people charged with find out the truth. Parliament needs reorganisation and updating in line with modern working practices. Less likely to have so many Johnsons,Priti Patel and Suella Bravermen. Liz Truss would be facing a prison sentence for misappropriation of company funds. Why are politicians allowed to perform worse than any other employed person, but never face the same punishments.
It's also where you still get paid after leaving your job for performing badly.
@@mikeyacson9542 We the people are their bosses, they are there to serve us. My point still stands, the way the Government behaves is childish and bullish. In the workplace, their rhetoric would be against many Laws. If we accept laws that stop certain behaviour taking place in work spaces, then those who are hired to help run this country so also keep these laws. I have no idea why you mentioned the civil service, I did not. I was talking about the findings of the report. I mentioned the others because of the rhetoric during debates, and question times.
The establishment it's been there for hundreds of yrs money and power
Wouldn’t it be great if the Tories weren’t even the main opposition after the next election! I know it won’t happen but we can dream!!
It's a 2 party system sadly until we get a new electoral system.
@@beanoboy62 never underestimate the covert anger of the British people
The Liberal party were once the biggest opposition to the Tories until their voter base was taken by Labour its not impossible that this might be the end of the conservatives as one of the two main parties if enough people are disillusioned after so many yesrs
@@tomspyro5795 yes but the Tory party won't be taken out by a left wing party. If it happens it'll be by a more Extreme right wing party. Which I'll be honest, screw that, the Tories are terrible but they're better than UKIP or the BNP. The reason the liberals lost their position was because their supporters naturally drifted to the left and towards labour. I think it's equally likely that labour get eventually destroyed and replaced by other parties such as the greens. Our 2 main broad church parties don't really represent wider public opinion which is increasingly extreme. I saw somewhere (I'm sorry I cannot remember where) that as much as 30% of the population would vote green every election if the voting system wasn't so terrible at penalising third parties. The same is true for conservatives that lost 13% of the vote to UKIP in 2015.
Suddenly scrutiny matters but when Johnson was there, it didn't. Penny is again seizing her moment.
This is just political opportunism, she knows it's a bad look to be associated with Johnson, but you'd better believe if the wind was blowing the other way, her vote would be too
She knows that it wouldn't be credible to vote against it! She'd probably not have been there today if it wasn't her job to present the motion.
I wouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. Besides, that she has taken an opportunity does not necessarily imply opportunism, a word which would suggest she is being insincere. She may be making a political move, as indeed the committee itself has done, but I hear no insincerity.
Not convinced she would blow the other way because she stood for PM
Powerful woman doesn't tow party line if not in agreement post boris!
they all knew and said nothing, in fact they almost condoned it.. now they're all righteous, give me a break. What an abhorrent gang of cutthroats

All the Tories that were absent today should have their names printed and voted out at the next election.

It would be easier to count the ones that turned up !!
I'd like to see an independent citizens assembly brought together to regularly audit mp's on their work, to ensure they are working in the best interests of the population and future generations.
I suppose that would be an elected citizens’ assembly?
Sort of a House representing the Common people?
A bit like Parliament?

It could be voluntary

How ever tory votes today should be on the main media news with their picture, we the public need to see how each of them vote.
Tory sleaze never ends!!
They are all now throwing him under the bus. Their hypocrisy knows no bounds. Its all about truth now is it?
Don't worry Boris has plenty ammunition on d lot of them I'm looking forward to d kickbacks it should be fun he's a journalist and has them by d crown jewels

Wow the most crucial situation for West Monster since Profumo in 1963. The whole ethos of Parliament urgently needs reform now; the Palace is literally falling down and it must start anew before it burns down as well.
Finally
Everything we’ve known all along has now come forward
I still feel the scum Tories will continue to fight tooth and nail for their false integrity
Oh wow, suddenly, when it is expedient, they now have a conscious???
no, this is most definitely penny's play for leadership. but also opportunism from the tories in general to be seen as distancing, because political suicide otherwise.
@@brymstoner exactly they are despicable.
@@brymstoner 100% agree.
They are scum and, sadly, scum floats to the tip.
Penny Mordaunt as the leader of the house, has to be congratulated for voting against Boris Johnson in the partygate report🙏
It might be an honourable thing to deceive the enemy, but when you deceive your friends you are no longer a friend, you have become the enemy.
I couldn't agree more.
And the opposition are not the enemy, but our friends with whom we disagree.
@@hadorstapa In todays Parliament the opposition are our friends who only want to do it at a different speed to us.

I’m impressed, to be fair. Some spine left somewhere in that party.
7:27 If Tories could not lie they would all be struck mute.
Shame to all Tories who voted against the Privilege Report.
Not a Tory and never will be. But she'll be Party leader when they lose the next GE. May even end up being PM one day if the Labour government doesn't deliver.
"The Integrity of our Institutions...." That Ship sailed away a long time ago along with the Horse that bolted.
The Tories need to remember that the public is going to keeping a very close on on this and where or not their MP voted in the first instance and how they voted. If the Tories choose not to vote at all and choose to voted against this it will damage them severely. The PM needs to get his arse there and vote!!! Otherwise this is going to send a very clear message to the public about him and his party.
eye, whether
unfortunately most of the great unwashed could not give a toss, hence you have Tories in power. give the Proles beer and football
Again, it looks like Penny Mordaunt is one of the very few tories with a steady moral (as well as physical) core. I would not vote tory...But I would not despair so much if more like her or Rory Stewart were in charge at the moment.
Lots of words all empty. I've yet to see a torie tell anything honest
We will know who does and who does not support the sovereignty of parliament.
The fact that they won't whip their members to vote against Bojo and are "leaving it to their individual choices" shows just how spineless the Tories are. Every abstention is worse than voting to support him. At least you have the nerve to be a piece of filth publicly. These cowards are the absolute worst.
Utter nonsense . It would be inappropriate for Government to hamstring members on a matter of Parliamentary privilege. You haven't a clue what you are talking about. Why is British education so appalling?
Notice she is alone. The only one not under the sway of cowardice and self interest?
Good to see there are actual, moral people in the Tory Party.
It's interesting that the leader of the house sits alone with mostly empty seats around her and said all the right things without her close colleague supporting her. In front of her are almost full seats occupied by people supporting her!
Then there were JRM and co sitting at the far end. No doubt disagreeing with every word she said. Will they vote against?
The disgusting thing for me is it takes years to conclude what normal decent folk knew from the beginning.
I can’t stop laughing to get through this skit. Too funny 😂😂
She's as bad as the rest of them. She wanted to be PM if I remember correctly. It looks like someone is after a promotion. 😂
Remember *that* leadership campaign video? 🤣 She’s a joke.
@@MontyCantsin5 she has muscles that would take you and throw you into a rubbish bin
@@bigbinji6145: Oh no, not a rubbish bin. How scary.
So would it be better if nobody aspired to be PM?
@@MontyCantsin5 Remember how she fielded the urgent questions while Liz Truss was being told to resign? She's no joke - she has more charisma than anyone else I can think of in parliament atm, and she seems like a grown up. BJ was a joke, but that didn't stop him being extremely damaging.
No, you bought this to the house because you got caught.
It would appear that their integrity only matters once they have been caught out, imagine acting in this way in your own place of work, how long before you get the sack?
I have always voted Conservative, never, ever again.
The Speaker colluded to protect the liar and punished those who were calling out the liar.
He. Has. No. Shame.
Protect the arsonist, punish those calling the fire brigade.
Why is the Tory party even allowed to stand as a party in politics never mind in Westminster? 🤔
She held that sword at the coronation, and now she's the only one with the guts to turn up , Rishi the usurper doesn't were the trousers she does
I think the misdeeds of Boris Johnson belong not only to Boris Johnson but the whole party the crook was a member of
If you know you’re the future you don’t attach to the soiled past !
looks like Penny is the next leader after the election
Probably Kemi Badenoch the Tory membership like the crazies 😊
Hopefully it'll be an easy choice ie. pick any one from one
We all know her ambitions but I can't help but really quite like Penny Mordaunt - always well informed, well composed, actually gives answers & seems somewhat grounded as far as the Tories go at least.
But still, do I want this Conservative Govt. in power? Not in the slightest x
Why so few MPs? Because the vote is a forgone conclusion.
Because they don’t want to have to give a preference if it comes to a vote.
They'll probably nod it through without a vote so that Johnson can, at a possible future date, claim it does not have the imprimatur of Parliament because it was not voted on. Ironic isn't it?
@@weswheel4834 what do they have to lose by burying dePfeffel?
The Tories are shit scared of the LOONIES IN THEIR RIGHT WING VOTER BASE!!!
I’ve been Labour every election since I was 19 in 1983 but the sniping and knee jerk cynicism on this thread I don’t think is fair. I loathe the front bench almost to a man and woman but I actually think Penny Mordaunt is half decent and I don’t dismiss her presentation here as the abject self seeking cynical posturing some are saying it is. Starmer dodged a bullet when the idiots voted for Truss/Sunak not her because not only is she sane, she’s articulate and fearless. She’d never get my vote in a million years but she has a modicum of my admiration.
Ms. Mordaunt is one of the greatest British lovable & respectful ladies in the United Kingdom!
-American
The Tory front bench is probably empty for fear of their own involvement being brought up. Many will forget that Sunak was also present at the party amongst many others. They broke the law and the ministeral code (their own internal laws). Doing so in any other work place could warrant immediate dismissal. There should be no opportunity for them to return as an MP under a different party. This is a privileged position they should be seen to setting the example. This is true for anyone in this house.
If integrity is important, then why vote against a report commissioned by the government?!?! Integrity means accepting facts even if you don’t like them.
Integrity and British MPs are words that do not belong in the same sentence !

Brave words from the tories now that bojo is no longer any use to them. maybe they need to do the very same with the current pm and his circus of clowns.
lets not forget, all those Tories calling for integrity now, were all behind Boris from the start and many of his appalling plans , which they supported.
