i think it focussed little to much on Brexit and not on COVID and it’s devastating effect on the the Tory Party post Johnson. Apart from that otherwise brilliant.
They've gotten richer than you and I ever will. They don't care about losing the GE they've got exactly what they've wanted. Sadly there'll be no justice and no lessons learned. Another decade and we'll go back round the political cycle again.
I dunno... I think all governments need a strong opposition in order to keep them on their toes. The Tories have always had wealth and connections on their side, so I think their fall into utter incompetence and corruption was more likely than Labour, but that's not to say Labour could not suffer a similar fate without the threat of opposition parties waiting to snatch their seats should the electorate become too dissatisfied.
If Labour get in, we need to push them very hard for "Proportional Representation". That will ensure that we never have this style of government ever again.
I opened up comments to write this... this is like the Sistine chapel of its category. (I suppose the staccato delivery of the original helps, but still.)
Okay, the brilliance of this cannot be understated. As a parody lyricist myself, I can confidently state *this is one of the hardest songs out there to parody,* due to its complex ryhming structure and erratic line lengths. To be able to do it AT ALL is a massive achievement - to do it to this high standard is practically god-tier. I take my hat off to you - and offer some paracetamol for the inevitable headache generated as a side-effect of such an achievement. 😁
I am here on the 4th of July 2024 and I am going to be blasting this throughout the day to celebrate the defeat of the Tories!!! Happy Independence Day from the USA to our cousins in the UK! My best to you as you claim independence from the Conservatives!
Just absolute GENIUS, and even more enjoyable after last night's by-election results. Just heard Greg Hands on Radio 5Live waffling on about 'it's not the election proper' but he knows the jig is up. They've run out of things to sell-off or ruin. Never forgive, never forget.
I agree, but sadly, a few years from now, GB News and the Telegraph will be waffling on about bacon sandwiches and before you know it, the public will forget and put these crooks back in. I thought they were done after Thatcher, but no, here we are (again).
You guys! These spoofs get better and better! Think you owe the creator an extra pint at the pub this week! How can we get this into the charts for xmas no.1??? Keep up the good work holding them to account guys! xD
The rhythm of this made me think that 'we didn't start the fire' would make for an excellent Tory remix :') amazing stuff Joe omg I burssstttt out laughing at that thank you :)
Happy days are here again, We'll sing a song of cheer again etc. etc. And of course special thanks must go to our great friend Nadir Dorries for her exceptional work in making all this possible! Clap clappity clap...
As somebody who dabbles with vid editing I can see how much work went into this. Brilliant; is there no end to Mr Lynch's talents? Totally on board with the sentiments too.
@@toyotaprius79 The Tories would have taken us into Iraq. Don't get me wrong, I still hold it against Blair, but having the Tories in wouldn't have helped. And even if Starmer is only as far left as Blair economically, that is still 50 million times better than what we've had recently. Plus hopefully, maybe he'll be competent?
@@toyotaprius79 Blair who also doubled the UK economy in 8 years, took the NHS to the highest standards of any health care system in the World, took education to the highest of any western country on Earth and the only to compete with S Korea and Japan while still delivering the second highest growth of personal wealth among the working and lower classes in UK recorded economic history. That Tony Blair? Fun fact: When the Tories came into power the UK economy per capita was almost 1.2 times that of Germany where now its around .9 times that of Germany, when the Tories lied their way into power the UK economy was on the brink of overtaking the German economy in outright scale where now we're looking like falling behind Poland on a per capita basis. And Labour did that without sending 1/4 of children into abject poverty or pumping shit and effluent into the rivers and lakes, did that without destroying policing or putting 8 million people on waiting lists for health care and allowing schools to collapse. That Blair? Or were you thinking of Lionel?
@@darthwiizius The Labour hard (not pragmatic there is a big difference) left never liked Attlee, greatest post war PM, nor Wilson (fought 5 elections, won 4 of them, brought major social change in education opportunities and let major reforms pass via his Home Secretary Roy Jenkins in a politically courageous move), Blair as stated via two landslides and a post Iraq 60 seat majority. The Tories could not capitalize on that issue. After Corbyn fell into an easy to see political trap, letting the vile, corrupt Johnson in with the biggest Tory win since 1987, the stubborn, thick old fool called it ‘a moral victory’.
This is just brilliant, everything packed into less than 2 minutes and oh so accurate and succinct. MORE please.
And despite that, a good 5 seconds of it was spent on a pig fucking joke. Absolutely masterful work.
Sadly, I think there is actualy quite a bit that they weren't able to pack in....
Fantastic this is what every one wants at work Tories out

YES , BUT WHAT A 5 SECONDS@@simonnathan7404
Oh please, let them finish with 20 seats and never darken the corridors of Parliament again
Imagine 🙏
Or less… Sunak, Braverman and Gove to lose their deposits and be beaten into last place by the monster raving looney party😂😂

Absolutely incredible. How it follows both the phrasing of the original song and the Tory timeline at once is just outstanding.

This needs to be released as a single and become number one.
Christmas number one

A hard rock song made it many years ago so why not this ?
.
Along side boris johnson is a c**t
Play as Roland leaves no 10
Great
get it to No.1 on election night, whenever that is, so they are forced to play it on the radios just as the results are coming in
@@jacksonmacmanus1001 err. God Dave the Queen was held at number two. We are not free
Yes release it as a single !
Who's here in May 2024! We're getting out of austerity with this one 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Starmer wants to continue austerity however
Here to share the shit out of this, it’s perfect!
It's all true Independence Day from the shit show

Agreed - it is such a rare gift to make all these words scan. Reminds me of Dylan at his peak.
Swedemason is one of the original geniuses as this kinda stuff! He's never lost his edge. Great that he's getting paid to do it by Joe.
It's just amazing how whoever made this managed to get Liz Truss to remember so many words, all at the one time

The NHS is the thing they really want to privatise…capitalise and profiteer on sickness and the nations health

Still the NHS to sell off but Labour will do that
I've not forgiven nor forgotten since Thatcher.

The dead pig’s gob got me! 😂😂😂
Nadine's "shit for brains" got me 😂
"Time in chief, kept it brief, outlived by a lettuce leaf" 😂😂
Can we get this to Number 1 in the charts, please?
It needs to be 3 minutes long and nothing will keep it out of the number one spot!
This HAS to be released as a single. It's a nailed on no.1 👌PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN 🙏🙏
And it’s happened! 🎉🎉🎉
Thirteen years of abysmal hell, in 1 Minute 51 seconds.
"Let's go back to my place" is an absolute line 😂
Lets get this to Number 1 on election day
This is BRILLIANT!! Equally hilarious and shockingly accurate… ❤😱🤣
I'd forgot about the tractor wanks
Absolutely brilliant, love the Mick Lynch dancing bit.😂😂😂
Dancing Mick Lynch, brilliant!😂
this needs to get to number 1, the best thing is if we get it to number 1 on election night
great job once again from swedemason, this is another masterpiece. This needs to be released as a single in the UK, it will go to the top!
This was prophetic! Post 4th July 2024.
How apt now that David Cameron is back in government.
We all feel fine 🙌😎 🥂 🎉
1st time I have had a smile about UK politics since 2013😁😃😄
the hell happened in 2013?
@@jonasmejerpedersen4847 That was the year before the Scottish independence referendum.
Anyone else plan to listen to this on loop all day on July 4th?
This is literally the best and most accurate summary of the last 14 years and its all in their "own" words 🔥
hits harder now dave is back
Today, is possibly the day this mashup finally becomes reality
I could watch this forever on a loop
4th of July and this is playing on repeat lol
Watch this every day, Lest we forget
Ok, I am on my 5th viewing and still have tears of laughter running down my face!
Today is a very very good day!
I can’t imagine how long this took… best time spent ever guys 👍🔥💀🏴❤️
Excellent! Let's have more like this!!!
Nice to start the day with a good laugh. THANK YOU.
I love this and I often play it on repeat to cheer myself up. Thank you.
Top Class, I used to love REM back in the 80s
Superb, this should be part of the National Curriculum. Thanks.
You guys! These spoofs get better and better! Think you owe the creator an extra pint at the pub this week!
How can we get this into the charts for xmas no.1???
Keep up the good work holding them to account guys! xD
I would 5000% put money towards getting this to be the Christmas no. 1. PoliticsJOE, can we please make it happen? 🙏
#1 - Yay! 😃👍
So clever and feckin hilarious! Appreciate the mad hours you've put into making this 👏👏
Woke up this morning, checked the news, felt great
OUTSTANDING. Don't vote until you've watched this !!
Can we get this to Christmas No.1?
That second verse is a masterpiece!
Some of the best art I've ever seen. "It all went a bit tits up so I legged it" sounds hilarious said by Scamwrong
This song makes me feel strangely nostalgic for the 2010-2024 era, and 2023 hasn't ended yet 😂
This is great. Well done. Greetings from York, North Yorks.
That is just bloody brilliant! Thirteen years of Tory crapology condensed into less than three minutes! Well done!
The rhythm of this made me think that 'we didn't start the fire' would make for an excellent Tory remix :') amazing stuff Joe omg I burssstttt out laughing at that thank you :)
That's an absolutely cracking piece of work, whoever put that together. Hilarious, and I loved it.
This needs to be spread far and wide 😂
So accurate ! And such an amazing connection between words, music, and video.
The best one so far!
Brilliant. The best thing is I’m reasonably sure R.E.M. would approve 👏🏻👏🏻
Nearly spat my tea out! Epic. Made my day.
Phenomenal edit as always, maybe even better than trainstopping. Great stuff PolJoe!
Amazing stuff, appreciate all the work that goes into it!
Love, love this. Just so funny. 'Can't find the exit'. If only though ...
Play this out off Parliament when Sunak Resigns on the 4th or 5th
Happy days are here again,
We'll sing a song of cheer again etc. etc.
And of course special thanks must go to our great friend Nadir Dorries for her exceptional work in making all this possible!

Beautiful.

5 months later and this is still amazing
Please can we get this to Number one close to the election date.
One can only hope...
Pure genius well done
Please release this song so that it can enter the charts
An excellent piece of work. 🙂
Always a good start to the day. Go on - treat yourself. Give it a listen. You don't know what you're missing !
It's genius. Plain and simple.
it's a great day when RUclips leads you to a gem such as this.
Brilliant, play it on rotation in every constituency
It really does feel like 1996 just before that stunning landslide in 1997 time gentlemen please YOU’RE OUT
And everyone was so excited for Blair...
Remember 2003 Iraq war?

More genius from the legendary Swedemason - ratioing Cassetteboy since 2018
Class! How did they condense a decade of depression into 2mins
This has made my week!
Just so spot on!!!
Brilliant, love it, hope it gets to the top of the charts.😂
Mick Lynch needs to be railroaded into heading at Reading next year with this new band. Gurner Gove on bass is so classy!
Genius! lol
Swedemason knocking it out of the park, again
Top notch video, proper laugh out loud stuff and piercingly accurate. Love the Mad Nads "Shit for brains" ...
Only 2 weeks to go now!
Not many songs get the lyrics “tractor wank”. Well done, great work.
Who would gave guessed: Mick wrap and REM. What a combo!
WE VOTING OUT THE TORIES WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥
This is excellent - but also historic as it features Johnson for once actually telling the truth - "I told a lot, I told a lot, I told a lot of lies"
Even in this mick comes out on top !
Outstanding!
after such a depressing week... thank you so much for this... 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Please please please release this!
Swedemason never misses a beat.
Thank you. My ear worm for the day❤️👍
Great compilation😂 the only thing is the Tories always metastasise into something worse in a few years' time. They never fully go away
I've listed several times and shared too. It's just brilliant. After a couple of plays I starred to think it's actually Matt Wrack who's done this!
The general election can't come soon enough, the past 13 years have been so disappointing, embarrassing and heartbreaking.
Just perfect. Chef's kiss ❤
So good 😂 well done to whoever made this! Must have taken so long! But so worth it 😂
Just fabulous
SO GOOD! Well done and thank you for the laughs!!
