Political parties should be abolished. The entire concept of party whips telling people who are supposed to be representing their constituents what to vote for is shameful, and creates disasters such as this. MPs should be elected by their constituents based on the policies they stand for, not on association with groups which flip-flop on policy from one day to the next. Political parties polarise politics and encourage MPs to care more about their party leader "winning" than about implementing the policies that are best for the people.

I also would like you to do a video on WHY King Charles was viewed negatively as a future King! 🤨 I find him to be very humane and forward thinking 🤨 Now that I actually see what he is like AND his personal strength as a clearly emotional man ….WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU DISRESPECT THIS MAN….

The worst part about Truss is you’re able to see where she’s bought out. Most of her party is anti-fracking, and she even made a big push as an MP for some bee repopulation hippy project. But she also wants more fracking. Wonder where the money is coming from, Liz…

Charles Walker hit the nail on the head. At the moment the Tories are just taking a book out of the Republican Party and putting people in places not where they can serve people, which is their job, but serve each other, which is an abuse of their power…

Hey, I had a question that might be worth a video, "what did Liz Truss get out of being PM for five minutes?" I mean, she's out of power now, record short run at it, but she was PM for at least a little while, so were there any permanent perks to that? Does she get an extra pension? Some sort of title? is there anything she gets to keep in life that she wouldn't have if she'd never been PM?

Truss clearly needed a lot more than a brush up with Brilliant as she was well below the minimum level needed to provide leadership to a country now in a bit of a financial and political crisis. A general election is clearly needed, but the Tory leadership may lack the humility to do the right thing!!

Yeah, is hard to govern a country that actively seeks to start WW3.
But we all know she was put there not to govern but to TAKE THE BLAME for Boris's actions.
This is why they nominate women as PM's in UK. To have them either take the unpopular decisions (Thatcher with the reforms) or to take the blame for bad decisions (May with the Brexit and Truss with the War).
They know the public and the media have a solid pro-women bias and they will receive far less criticism than any male leader. Even if this cabinet collapses they lost nothing. She was from the start a sacrificial PM and she did her job taking the heat away from Boris and its cronies that got UK into this dire situation by starting a global conflict against the largest and cheapest energy provider in the world.
Now the prices are getting higher and higher, the global trade slows down and many foreign investors are afraid to invest since UK can "sanction" their business, grab their money from the banks or even "sanction" them and their families on a whim.
UK single handedly is about to destroy globalism itself, and that is quite an achievement.
But apparently the plan backfired and the country that is totally dependent on global trade and foreign investment is not feeling good… who could have been predicting this? Clearly not the greedy ones that started the entire thing.
This is the price you pay when your greed knows no limits. Sadly the poor, working class and the middle class will pay the price, not the politicians that created the problem. They will pay the media and social platforms to convince the people that since the "problem exists", clearly "they are the solution"!
And sadly the people will trust them once again… with the predictable results.
