In this video we explore Burnham’s promise to implement a more representative electoral system in the UK but will he actually succeed where countless other governments have failed – and actually change the voting system?

Nigel Farage said Andy Burnham’s comments about potentially rejoining the EU had given him “the biggest boost in [his] career”. We look at why — even if it seems counter-intuitive — another Brexit debate could actually hurt Farage.

Before the Brexit referendum, a whole bunch of MPs explained to Britain how the economy would collapse post-Brexit. While Brexit hasn’t yet happened, some did say that the destruction would take place immediately after the vote; which didn’t exactly happen as expected. So in this video, we explain what’s happened and why the economy hasn’t done too badly in the end.

Ukraine says, "I want you to go to war with Russia for me and die!" And yet we have already sent colossal funds to Ukraine to contain the Russians. But Ukraine is behaving like a cheeky beauty, demanding to have knight fights and kill each other over her. Except that the beauty is no longer fresh.

RE. Starmer and Savile: why are you so eager to allow him to take credit for his successes as head of the CPS, but not his failures??
@wuigi1496
January 5, 2024 at 12:59 pm
Mate, you're just boring. I looked at this video to see if it would give me more information than I already knew. It didn't. Moreover, were I not to know what I do, id be convinced of certain things that were not necessarily the case. E.G. David Davis being a perpetually disappointed man for not beating Cameron and losing his appeal to the voters to Johnson.
Further, who cares if there was a party or not? as mentioned by a previous comment, Tony Blair lied to the House about something that actually mattered. where's your 10 minute monologue about that???

@paulaseabee8442
January 5, 2024 at 12:59 pm
Considering events in the House since this video was put up, it's disgusting that Johnson has frequently got away with 'misleading the House'.
The trouble with the 'Good Chap' tradition of Parliament is that it cannot deal with someone who has no intention of being a 'good chap'. Just because a crime is unthinkable, doesn't mean it can't be committed. Legislate clearly, rather than assume no one will do it. Sadly, this is asking rule-breakers to make the rules so they cannot break them.
@alexanderromanov737

Both parties have been approached for comment.
Jennifer Arcuri claimed last year that she had an affair with Boris Johnson in 2012, while he was Mayor of London.
Johnson fucked Arcuri on the tax payers nickel, that includes me, well, I for one want the money back, not because she is as ugly as sin and obviously not worth it, lets face it he is also a sweaty pig with various other defects, but because I go to work for my money and Johnson lies for his and then steals from me to fuck any ugly bitch, just for a laugh.
The affair, which ended in 2016, is currently subject to an investigation by the inept Greater London Assembly’s oversight committee over Johnson’s failure to declare the relationship and failing to pay for her pole dancing with his fathers own money. Obviously he won't be sanctioned for his thieving, lying or being a c*nt, but at least they should sack him.

@OrangeLibrary
January 5, 2024 at 12:59 pm
That's the problem with the British system of government isn't it? Over-reliance on trust as opposed to written rules. I mean, when it comes to founding a new country, trust in the founders would be necessary at first as they are starting from scratch. But hundreds of years of assuming that people are generally good and won't break unwritten rules? That's simply naive. Eventually somebody will fart in that elevator with no shame!

I'm quite annoyed by the fact that this is "allegedly" a video made by professionals, by the sound is not awful but disturbing and annoying. The anchor's voice is TOO low and lacking of treble, whilst the tune volume at 1:02 (I had to take off my headphones for a moment while turning down the volume, and then immediately having to turn it up again).

Get rid of him. He shouldn't have been PM in the first place. He lost in three out of the four countries which make up the UK, only winning in England. The reason he got the job was due to the frankly, disgusting practice of falsely counting the UK as one country (something which it has never and will never be) during votes. This is done to ensure that England can always outvote everyone else thanks to their much larger population and do whatever they want with zero regard for the other countries.

The record levels of employment are linked to a change in the tax rules (IR35) which mean lots of self employed people are now on payroll, so there are more people paying NI. However the accepted figure as you say is well down. BBCs More or Less did a better explanation.

Whether you like Johnson or not, whether you're Conservative, Labour or anyone else, surely it's time for a change when the PM is willing to stand-up and lie. Let us not forget this is man sacked for lying from two previous jobs. In short, he, and all those who defend him amongst his crew, stand against the basic principles of democracy.
