- Опубликовано: 14 июл 2022
- Candidates for prime minister and leader of the Conservative party were asked if they thought Boris Johnson was honest during the leadership debate on Channel 4 on Friday (15 July).
While Penny Mordaunt, Rishi Sunak, Kemi Badenoch, and Liz Truss gave longer responses, Tom Tugendhat shook his head.
The candidates' performance in the debate on Friday could influence the way Conservative MPs vote in the next leadership ballot on Monday (18 July).

Tom did the most honest thing that a conservative has done in ten years
i.e. he said nothing at all.
@@jonb5493 He said 'no' to what the presenter said was a question that required only a yes/no answer; therefore he is the only one who answered the question. Listen again - he says it while the presenter is asking him the question.
And that is why Tory members won't eleact him not what there about
No politician is honest 😂🇬🇧 They care for their own pockets only, not the public they’re meant to serve.
Anyone who can defeat Starmer has my backing. Jobs are created by consumers who have money to spend.
ALL The Tory are blind about the ONLY CORRECT solution today, It is to give every citizen £2000 per month unconditionally in perpetuity and then increase the taxes on the wealthy. Feeding free money to the humans must always be accompanied by increasing the taxes on the Wealthy. * Give the same amount of money to everyone on the wealth pyramid and then, to stop the price increase, tax more the top of the Wealth Pyramid and give it back evenly to everyone again and again !!!!! Taxes above 100% become acceptable.
Q: How much money to feed to every citizen per month, £2000, £5000, £10000?
A: Whatever is necessary for a DIGNIFIED EXISTENCE.
Q: What is "dignified Existence"?
A: Whatever the most common human spending on the free market say it is, plus, the most common taxes, fees and penalties imposed on the citizens. The current government must NOT have ANY involvement in deciding the amount necessary for the "dignified existence" of the average citizen. Only statistical analysis of common spending and common taxes among the citizens can define "dignified existence" objectively.
Q: What would stop the wealthy from leaving the country while still extracting profits from our markets?
A: We must have laws for strict border control of Wealth leaving the country and people entering the country. Profits must stay in the country by law. The law must state that if you leave the country you lose free access to our markets as well.
It does not matter what is private or public if the citizens have enough money to afford paying for it either trough the free market mechanism (when the "it" is privately owned) or through the taxation mechanism (when the "it" is publicly owned).
He says no instantly, you can hear him.
TG is the only credible candidate. And for that reason, he's not in with a chance.
As someone who supports Not the Tories, TT would be a disaster for the next general election. If the Tory MPs have any sense they'll elect him
Completely agree. In a fair and democratic world Tugendhat would win this but the machine has already decided that Sunak will win and it always gets what it wants. This leadership contest is just a charade.
Sadly This is very true, anyone with an ounce of integrity or honesty don’t stand a chance
@@benkolya agree. I can't see the electorate wheeling out en masse for Truss, Sunak, Mordor, etc. It's like carrying on drinking after you've just thrown up: you have to be quite seriously addicted to the poison.
He won't have a chance before he has nothing in his head to offer to the nation, except the colour of his skin!! which of course is your reason too!!/
A straight answer to a straight question - he won't last long.
What I like about Liz Truss is that it's like watching the human brain slowed down a thousand times so you can actually perceive the manifold, subtly changing ideas as they take form.
Lmao best comment
💯 true
Spot on ...er...except the "subtly" bit perhaps...
I am a strong labour supporter and have been all my life , however I was impressed with Tom who seems to be a moral person.

Politics isn't a place for moral people mate
@@rayman878 Wow. Just wow
Fair play to Tugenhat. Has my respect for that
They should make Tugendhat Tory leader just for that.
I agree 🤗👍
Maybe. Policies over personality
Ha ha rubbish, lolol OMG!
@@annaholley8913 Lololol!
@@sallyraynor8984 I wonder ,if you have nothing better to do. I recommend you read a book, good for improving vocabulary.
Avoiding the question is one thing, but this is just almost as sinister as it is embarassing.
Truss stress levels are through the roof, her blink rate is about at take off stage. She is going to levitate of the floor.
Liz Truss is blinking more than Ben Swain during his Newsnight interview with Paxman
Tells you a lot when someone cannot answer a simple question. Last guy did it though
@@castorcarvi I don't think its dumb, but whether or not it was, he answered it fast and simply. Thats a rare trait among politicians
He answered very clearly and that is why the audience clapped him.
It's why he will be next voted out
@@suchisthismystery2814 exactly
@@sallyraynor8984 Yeah, they can't keep someone honest. They are and always have been corrupt
It's beyond mental that, apart from Tugendhat, the rest performed linguistic gymnastics to avoid giving a straight answer.
It's a strange sign of the times that someone has to be commended for giving an honest answer.
To be fair Kemi said “sometimes”. That seems pretty accurate to me. Her and Tom seem the most genuine all round.
Kemi said sometimes and that's a pretty fair and genuine response
💯%true.
Sadly its going down to rishi or penny. I hate any tory but the only one with a bit of credibility in the current candidates is Tom. Rishi and liz definate no no they are as much guilty as boris for lying and backing him all the time.
Cannot agree with you more. Tom is the only candidate for the PM, out of the Johnson's circle. He seems genuine, and he did not try avoid question about Boris's dishonesty.
Rishi resigned to save his own skin just did it too late.
True🤗👍
So did 60 other mps and he wasnt first to resign
Better late than never.
@Michael. Sunak resigned in order to lead the coup and continue to feather his own nest.
No! He resigned at a time when he knew he had enough support within the party for him to be the next PM. A very clever move to make.
Ask a politician the time of day and they’ll give you the price of fish.
Ask Johnson about the state of the economy and he will offer you a vaccination, ask Johnson about his lies and corruption and he will offer you another vaccination, that is his only defence for all his disgusting wrongdoings
Tom Tugendhat could get liberal centrist remainers like me to look at the Tories again
But he isn't going to win. So I'm not going to vote for them next time
It's time for change after 12 years (14 by the time of the election) of Tory government
I'll be voting Labour
True.🤗👍
Too right. No rational Tories left, just chancers and liars.
Just vote tactically to get the tory fnckers out ffs
@@ironmantooltime I live in one of the most marginal seats in the country between the Tories and Labour. Voting Labour is the best move for me to get the Tories out
@Jayson errr no
I can't believe it... did that politician just answer a question?
are the media ready for honesty in politics? I think he is probably the best of the ones left in the race.
I like Tom Tugandhat
I like him too.
Kemi is my pick but think Tom did best on the night. Certainly those two had the most integrity.
Listen to you ...like anyone, anywhere cares what YOU think - least of all politicians.
@@rrbh probably as much as your comment. But thanks anyway.
Liz Truss wins the award for worst response.
Liz truss with the Maggie Thatcher bow. Total joke.
Penny is a Thatcher re-incarnated!
Damn shame the two outsiders here haven't got a hope in hell. Badenoch and Tugendhat are by far the best candidates. Tories might stand a chance at the next election with Mordaunt but it's a guaranteed Labour win if Rishi the snake gets in.
I may not be a Tory but I can agree with you on that
Yep and she answered fairly too with “sometimes”
You know politics are getting bad when someone just giving a straight and honest answer is considered shocking
Tugendhat blows with the wind. He was in full support of Boris not long ago. I know, i have met the creep
He's out then, the grass roots would never vote for him.
Rishi's response is so faltering, hesitant, then he his brain goes ping (remeber why you are here) - & he does the Mark Anthony-like speech after Julius Caesar's demise-"I come to bury Boris but not to praise him"😂🤣
Reporter- " what's your policy for the economy?"
Tom Tugendhat- "well during my time in the army we used to fry eggs "
Reporter- " how are you going to tackle the climate crisis?"
Tom Tugendhat- "when I was a major general we didn't have showers every day "
Reporter- "how are going to deal with the summer of discontent?"
Tom Tugendhat- " yes, my wife is French and a powerful judge and attorney, but she did not serve in the army like I did, your next prime minister "
I don't know a thing about TT, never heard of him before this, but he seems a lot more honest than any politician I've seen for the last 10 years. Got to read up on his policies and what he stands for before I can say I support him. Although it seems most people in the comments of these debates are praising him a lot.
This is the best Private School can churn out........ouch
Still proud to have backed Tom, he did brilliant work at the FA Select Committee before he ran too.
All of them except Tom can answer yes or no. The rest of them sound like Boris Johnson
Hope he wins, best of a bad bunch
@Daniel New. The rest would walk all over him; particularly the WEF lovers.
Tom may 'tug himself off in his hat' but he's the only one who gave a yes or no answer. I just hope he washes his hands... and his hat 🤣
Whether BJ is honest is a known fact to the public, which is also why those candidates stood there. How hard it is to acknowledge it? Ironically those who can't tell the truth received more votes from Tory MPs in the next round.
I believed him when he said he lied
No wonder why T.T was dropped from earlier on.
Conflict in E.U now is more like a 80's chezy Hollywood action movie.
I don't think Klaus Schwab will look favourably on this type of PRIME minister
Got the distinct impression, a couple of them, were thinking. 'This is not fun. What am I doing here, I could be at home with my feet up'.
@norman white. Best place for them!
Something big is happening. Bojo resigned. Sri Lanka toppled. Italian leader resigns. Estonian leader resigns. All these people completely corrupt. And no to any of the above souless actors.
He did actually utter the word "No" before shaking his head, but the questioner spoke over him at 0:59 so it was hard to hear.
Hes the best of a bad bunch
While watching this Boris said them's the breaks.
How can any of them be honest in a corrupt system?
Lying is second nature for a politician unfortunately 🇬🇧
Getting rid of Boris they have weakened themselves
Hardly a big shout. Stating the bleeding obvious.
No politician is honest!
Matt 'grab arse' Hancock now supports the lord of his own country manor, fishy Rishi, in his race for second place - Go team fishy!
@Monkey Boy. Neither Hancock nor Sunak should be trusted with a Cabinet post; particularly the most profligate Chancellor we've seen for very many years - and the present incumbent in that position should be tossed onto the back benches as soon as the new Leader becomes PM.
It’s not really a question anyone needs to ask. It’s long been established that he’s not an honest person. The question needs to be why does he lie? What society are we living in when someone has been lying to achieve objectives without consequences?
It's not necessary for most people as most people would of course, say no, but in this context, it's quite smart as it roots out those who dance around these types of questions such as rishi snakeface and liz untrussworthy
There isn't a shred of honesty or integrity between them.
What a useless bunch! Not even capable of saying that Boris Johnson is a liar!
Well, people who live in glass houses…… Tugenhat has just been banned from driving for using his mobile phone while driving. He didn’t admit the offence but went to court claiming he was just holding the phone. Twit - the offence is holding the device while driving. The court found he was using a maps app. So, Mr Tugenhat, with your now 12 points for driving offences you are walking or cycling for the next 6 months. You appear to be just as dishonest as the rest of parliament. I don’t think you will be calling out anyone on honesty issues again.
Most politicians of all parties are not honest. Dumb question really
Why can't they just answer the question?
@Paul & Harry's Adventures. It was a stupid question aimed at continuance of belittling Boris who is, I'm not displeased to say, nearly out. A much better question was to ask each candidate whether he/she is honest. We could watch them ALL squirm - because not one of them is!
4 politicians and a leader I'd vote for
Try blinking a lot Liz
Unbelievable how they have changed their tune.
He said that on defence that we should be at 3% gpr now he has a seat he defends 2 5 percent they all lie
I don't think anyone of them is honest ,
how to revive a leadership campaign the public thought was dead in the water by saying a single word: a guide by tom tugendhat
hey guy ! A tory party member is right here， I've joined the party for five months .Well Let me introduce myself first,I moved to North East England for eight months. I'm british-hongkonger from British hongkong as well as born and raised in British hongkong (Only those born in Hong Kong before 1997 are eligible to apply for a British passport)so my nationality is naturally British absolutely not f*cking Chinese,anyway as a british-hongkonger I would say "No way in the fu*king hell will i tolerate anyone trying to undermine the values of British traditional culture,
especially from fu#king china" btw The reason why the HongKongese like me are always well received in all over the world was entirely due to Britain indeed also The biggest difference between the HongKongese and the Chinese is that we had ever been baptized by the British civilization,but they have never been at all
how the hell did truss actually win this
At last , one Conservative prepared to be truthful. He just now needs to say Brexit was a disastrous mistake and he is capable of saving his party . Prevarication will lead nowhere.
Tom for PM.
lol its actually hilarious and pitiful at the same time that 4 out of 5 felt the need to give a waffly, evasive answer and not just answer the question.
No wonder we are all so tired of these people...we might regain a little respect if they could just be frank and honest..
Badenoch's reply of "Sometimes" was allowable- although hardly appropriate to describe Boris "Pants on Fire" Johnson.
Was that so hard? It was a rhetorical question!
Some of you covered his lies & so are just as bad 👎 shame on you
Conservatives actually have a decent guy in there? TT what a surprise
I thought liz truss was arrogant and unforgiving but my god penny mordaunt makes her look like an angel. the over confidence in that woman
@Mukki Merc. Mordaunt has received training by the WEF. They're all arrogant if they believe we would - in the main, I think - believe they have the slightest shred of intention of ' serving ' the huge majority of the populace.
All fakies except Tom
These fools need yes or no buttons
The word ‘yes’ wasn’t uttered by anyone, says it all really.
Tom said yes tho. Hence why that audience clapped. You could hear it.
@@jonathanbowen3640 The question was is Boris honest, he answered no.
@@MatthewMills. ah I read your comment wrong.
The liar Penny’s answer; “again I think he is, he is somebody who a has” interviewer “just yes or no will do” the liar “no I’m, i am not doing a yes or no because I think we, it would be” interviewer “you don’t know him?” The liar “it would be wrong to do that, there have been some real severe issues, er and I think that er he has paid a price for that”
Absolute nonsensical verbiage as far as I can see they are all shit houses, even Tom Tugendhat, he did shake his head but it still wasn’t forth right.
Don’t get me started on Sunak what a massive shit house he is.
It’s a bit desperate, meet the old boss same as the old boss
Only 1 guy with a straight answer - rest of them 🐍
Who cares, it is not like we are electing the Pope.
Тут без лишних слов. Тот кто красиво говорит не значит что он умней. Просто когда Лиз Трасс задаёте глупые вопросы, посмотрите в зеркало.
oh dear god
At least one tells the truth. Unusual for a Tory.
@Laura Walker. Unusual for any politician.
Pm for Pm 🇬🇧 for a better sociaty
Of course he shook his head, he knew that's what people wanted to see. Those claps from the audience will be heard back at Party HQ and may turn into votes for him. It's all about winning the top job. Tom is that bit more removed from association with Boris compared to the others so he can afford to call Boris out and not look a complete hypocrite. None of them are to be trusted.
@FreakinSweet. And he is trying only for some advancement. He does not expect to win, could not win and - if he did manage it - would be controlled by others and would be a disaster,
That coudl well be true, but it's a brave thing to do, I hate the tory's but he seems bearable (like Theresa May) until they get kicked out at the next GE.
I don't like Trump-style politics, but this made me yearn for someone to just say "YES, HE IS!".
above all penny is serving in the country's military.
No she's not. She's a reservist who never attends training. Tugendhat however has served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
@sasitharan mathavan. Briefly and to serve ONLY her own political interest and ONLY as a sort of Territorial I am told.
Truss is blinking so much, she could keep us in green energy for a year.
Hey I proud to be British
No matter whoever to be a Premier in the end still won't change anything ,Because they all don't have the tough attitude to contend China and Russia as well as the determination to defend our own country like Donald Trump
WE WANT BORIS WE VOTED FOR BORIS BREXIT HERO AND GREATEST PM SINCE THATCHER LOVE YOU BORIS

He won't have a chance as he has morals and most Conservatives m.ps don't know what morals are.
Tugendhat...what a crawler! The correct answer to that question was; Boris has resigned. I am competing for his job. I want to talk about my policies.
