Now with Kwasi Kwarteng sacked and the mini-budget lacerated, can the government survive?

Mr Kwarteng did exactly what she wanted him to do. When it all went wrong he got shown the door. The prime minister needs to be honest with herself and resign for the good of the country.
Kwasi needs to watch the film 'Get Out'
It didn't go wrong, it went exactly to plan. The hedge fund he used to work at made millions, he'll be back working there within 6 months.
Absolutely Truss is incompetent must resign.
"Meet the new boss...same as the old boss..."

Truss-magic 🎉
How do you screw up so bad that you make Boris look 10 times more competent?
How do you screw up so bad that you make May look 10 times more competent?
How do you screw up so bad that you make Cameron look 10 times more competent?
It's like Groundhog Day, but just with a different Tory PM and with the Day getting admittedly even worse each time, somehow.
@@winifredclarke1977 Out of the two i would have picked him, if that was my only choice. Thank the lord, i am not religious, they picked her. In 30 days she managed to single handedly bring the country to its knees. She is way over her head here. She is not qualified to do the job. She just does not have the skill set needed. Even her rhetoric is rather plain. Her histotry is full of u-turns. While people change their minds they do not tend to change them so drastically. If you are more or less a liberal when you are younger and then turn full tory, that is supect to me.
So Right!!!! Hahaha
@@winifredclarke1977 Nah screw that he is a sociopath. He wants to get rid of human rights laws, and impose restrictions on how people spend their money by introducing controlled digital currency. It's absolutely bonkers!
The saddest thing is that these people have the future of the UK public in their hands and they’re completely incompetent.
The media have a lot to answer for. Ch4 isn’t as bad as the rest. Not exactly partial though.
What it means, these politicians don't have the right experience nor the skill to manage the financial economic matter of the whole country.
I don't think it's incompetence. I truly believe they are following a script and it's all being done by design. Nobody can possibly be THIS incompetent.
@@shaungardner311 Read the body language of Truss at that awful press con. She's a papery ghost on valium.
She sacked Kwasi for doing what she asked him to do.
Chancellor got sacked in the hope she can stay on, what a shitshow. I have no confidence in this woman and her government.
Gwoafff
She backed him and then sacked him, she is a fool.
I have no confidence in any member of any party, they're all trash.
A great friend 😂 they were having an affair previously 😂😂😂
Lol u cannot believe any government in this world. Its all a theatre for poor making richest richer poorest more poor
Sacked by Liz Truss for implementing Liz Truss' policies lol. They made a fortune shorting the pound, mission accomplished
Spot on, the champagne party reception news has gone off the radar. Apparent corruption in the most blatant way totally ignored.
And those smug city boys got inside, privileged information from the chancellor himself! I always Knew the markets were rigged but not to this extent - now the cat is out of the bag!
Corruption Personified
A G A I N.
It's a bit more complicated than that. You are completely ignoring liz trusses incompetency. .
We the people should be allowed to cast a vote of no confidence in the government so that a general election can be called.
Unfortunately this isn't possible.
Haha, we don’t get a say in anything pal, get used to it

A general election is WHAT WE DON'T NEED if the nut cases Labour party get in the hole country is screwed. What the news doesn't talk about is the UK is the fastest growing country in the G7 strange that 🤔
I think that we’re actually witnessing the death of a political party, not just a government.
That would be terrific
She doesn't realise that she's the problem with her policies
sadly , she knows it well and she does not care !
I don't think she has a clue what she is doing or what is going on around her, she is oblivious. She shows that much contempt for anyone who dare question her.
The people who voted for her just to line their own pockets should be held accountable too.
What you get from a little Liberal.
She , is such a absolute failure... Who nominated this chancher ?? .
@@TELEVISIBLE I bet she's been crying a lot lately though. "Oh, things are not going my way...boo hoo"
Wowwwww, he was the sacrificial lamb for her policies We can't truss this government and need a new election.
Never thought that Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister could be surpassed by reality but I was wrong.
Indeed. The characters in Yes Minister look like complete professionals compared to the jokers you have running GB these days.
You know a lot of the plotlines from that show were real stories leaked by gov minister's and MP's. That's why it seems so believable.
Hacker and Humphrey usually sorted out the problem in thirty minutes.
Oh , so true .. Humphrey , get me out of this mess, or you are out of a job ..
I always forget about Yes 'Prime' Minister. Why is that, I wonder?

I want in. Of opting out, I mean. Opting out of England, I mean. Yeah!
If Jeremy Hunt is the best you've got...you lot are really screwed...
She still does not accept any blame for this disaster, instead choosing to blame the markets.
For the good of all, she needs to go asap.
That’s the trouble with western “leaders” these days. They are super fast to take the credit for anything good yet refuse to take the blame for anything bad,. They all look like snake oil salesmen.
Blaming the markets and Putin... I’m getting whiplash from her sudden changes of direction.
The #yen also is collapsing, is that her fault too?
The woman is rude no apology to the country, she had the cheek to blame the markets inability to manage the rapid changes her and her side kick made. I mean seriously woman take responsibility. Another Boris no accountability.
@@jennyh1845 Guess female PMs are just no good: need a man to do a man's job? That rules Kier out. He's not sure what he is 😂
If she can do this on a whim, she is not to be trusted by her peers. She changes with the weather and apparently has always been the same. Mercurial, fickle and not to be trusted. The Chancellor wasn't my favourite choice - but to sack him in this way was humiliating. She has lost control and the replacement Chancellor Hunt is not the best choice either. She won't last until next year.
She has made a scapegoat of the Chancellor and is ruthless but not very bright.
I would bet good money that some lobbyists in Washington spoke, through back channels queitly, with lobbyists in the UK (party donors) and reported on Kwartengs Washington IMF visit in real time. The way the guy carries himself, the way he talks, his attitude and likely obvious ignorance did not go down well with those "on the hill" and they made it known to those with deep pockets in the UK
Have to say Truss gonvernment is the most entertaining reality show this decade.
It may be a game for those in the corridors of power. Pity it has such dire consequences for ordinary people.
Not more than Boris!
@@braxxian Agreed. It's pretty depressing, really.

And people thought Boris Johnson was a joke. This lady blames the Chancellor she appointed for following her instructions. Whaaaaaaaa?
I don't think she's the one who came up with the plan because she has no financial background. He simply suggested the plan and she approved, but when the market didn't like it, she fired him

Truss is the human personification of the "This is Fine" meme.
Crisis! What Crisis?
I'm fine. It's fine. We're fine. Everything's fine...
It is hard to believe how useless the people in the power positions really are.
Totally agree. Surrounded by experts and systems to help them and they ignore it and plough on regardless based on no evidence just their own inexperienced, inexpert ego and feelings. Yuck.
The banks and market makers really run things. The politicians are just puppets they use to talk to us through.
Not useless. They are utterly corrupt. They are deliberately crashing the economy.
It is unbelievable so maybe they not useless ....I mean alot of rich people have got alot richer shorting the pound
5:51 Bravo to Sky's Beth Rigby for telling Liz Truss that's she's out of her depth 🤣
The incompetence not only lay at the feet of Truss but with the whole Tory Party ! And as for Hunt, the man who had done more harm to the NHS than many others of his party, does little for raising confidence in what the Tory Party has to offer the people of this country.

She'll be fine, and leading this country for a couple of terms. The people of the UK love her, support her, and they all want a war against Russia, as she does. It can't come soon enough, will be great fun, fighting for US tyranny, against Russia fighting for freedom, this is what we've all been brought up believing, (you'd think reading our own today). Viva Liz Truss
I'm voting for her... The only way to mend the country is an annihilation in war. And boy we're doing a splendid job.
TRUTH today is just like swearing always was. Not allowed! Truth is the most unfashionable thing on earth today. People really do hate truth. But TRUTH is all anyone should care about. Truth like this. Today we see, and we endlessly hear, all western governments accusing Putin of absolutely everything, anything at all! Tomorrow it will just be something else! - Yet we also know we're being led by the worst and most criminal governments we've ever seen before, today.
So why do we see anyone paying any attention to this obvious propaganda, and these really juvenile attempts to demonize Russia and Putin? I mean, it's not difficult for anyone to see the TRUTH? Let's just look at the reality? But is truth really that out of fashion today?
Truth I see! When Putin came to power in 2000, Russia was as deep in the toilet as they could have been, the economy was smashed to pieces and had completely broken down, many of the people were starving to death, and many Russian resources had been illegally sold off in corrupt CIA led auctions.
We have all watched Russia improve massively, we have watched him rebuild the country, we've seen him doing all the things we all really know we should have been seeing from our own governments? Fighting against the terrorism in Syria, and most certainly not creating it!
Putin's done everything right, and he's done it transparently and well within international law. It's only these uneducated and propaganda led fools that have no idea about any of this. The Russians know, they all understand this perfectly, and with all they've been through so many times throughout recent history, surely, if any society could select you a great leader, it must be them?
Let's just go back and look at Russia throughout the 1990s?, and then look again from 2000, to today? Tell me, just how could anyone fail to recognize what Putin really has achieved for Russia? How is it possible for anyone not to understand this?
The truth really is, there is nobody throughout our modern history whose ever taken a country that had collapsed from a leading global superpower, to a country on its knees, a broken corrupted nightmare of a country, that had been dilapidated to the point the people were starving to death and who all felt they had no hope! -
- To within 20 years, taking that country, improving that country, and leading that country to once again become a leading global power sitting at the top table, with a society who've seen their dream answered, who all have so much hope again today, that are all working, earning again, and whose country has seen improvement after improvement right across all areas.
There simply is nobody from any time in history that's got even remotely close to achieving all that Putin has for Russia, and that's the truth and reality. Anyone who wants to argue? Only need to name these other Great leaders, they must believe have done anything close to all Putin has? And while knowing all that, I have to say, it's impressive for sure. Then I think about it again, only this time while recognizing all the Illegal sanctions we placed on Russia, (for no reason), and while recognizing the truth, and while understanding what he has had up against him through every day of it?
I can only see a great man, that's being demonized by the worst, most criminal, terrorist supporting leaderships, the west has ever seen. But nobody else thinks like I do, and that's awesome. All I say, is, when you're speaking the truth, no matter if you’re the only one speaking the truth, you'll always be right, while the others (regardless of how many) will always be wrong. Simple logic. We have one of today.
She's got the intellectual ability of a dust particle 😐😐😐
How was she selected???? This is the piece of the puzzle I don’t understand.
Let's be fair. She is not quite blonde.
All of a sudden Boris isn’t looking so bad 😂

Correct . I want to vote a labour socialist into Office .. Scarmer ?? .
A general election? So that the electorate can be duped like children by another bunch of crooks and conmen? No thanks, let's spare the money at least!
Boris : Nobody can mess this country more than David Cameron and I did...Liz : hold my cuppa please 😂😅
These lot just stressed the Queen out 😂
"Today, I have asked Jeremy Hunt to become the new Chancellor. He's one of the most experienced and widely respected government ministers and parliamentarians..."
By whom Truss? He certainly wasn't respected as the head of the NHS. Once again, the views and opinions of the general public are secondary to that of those within the Conservative and Unionist Party. Out of touch, out of mind and out of control.
This is how Tory politics works. You stay around long enough and you become experienced and competent, apparently. Look at Truss, she's been in Cabinet since 2014.
Well said!!!
Truss has absolutely no shame, she was as responsible as her chancellor for the mini budget, they were both warned and they both chose to ignore the advice from treasury officials. The result was the bank of England having to hold up a sinking pound by spending 65 billion pounds on the currency exchange leading to higher interest and mortgage rates for people who can barely keep their head above water. She not only needs to go she needs to face charges of criminal negligence.
Well said Stuart
Today while I was driving home from work, I listen her interview
I get so so effing angry, if she would stand on the side of the road, would running through her without any blinking (I'm genuinely a peaceful happy and calm individual, but how she f us over during her short governing, ughhhhh....)

Like an old head mistress who is shagging the year 11 pupil... skeletons and contradiction!
Hunt was in charge of the NHS for six years , look at the state of it .
😂 she was picking out journalists that she knows that she's friends with who she agreed with the line of questions with. She was calling them by first and second name looking for them in the crowd yet still did a bad job answering! This is awful it's more than a car crash. Why does she feel she should stay?
She ran away and only took questions from her friends what she told them to say
Y E S, and clearly so.
What annoys me about her is that she is always claiming to have been hard-done by with the 'areas that lacked growth' in her earlier life, yet she got into Oxford and has done very well, with a middle-class background and little evidence of any real hardship. She likes to give the impression she has clawed her way to the top, yet ignores the obvious facts that she was privileged to start with and by the way, WAS NOT ELECTED.

The best way to get richer is to invest in small companies. You can act like it doesn't work but SEIS is shown to be effective, in fact it's way easier to get investment when you are an SEIS company, after that it gets harder.
She doesn't understand anything. Only understand she wants to be in the history book and she made it with excellence and will be remembered as the one whole almost bankrupt her country with only one mini budget announcement.
To be fair the quick liver punch Truss /Kwarzi has given the UK economy is on top of 14 years since wholesale banking sectors' greed driven credit crunch and then 12 years of their predecessors ideological doubling of national debt (Oopsey), side stepping bent russian money through London and crushing key workers by clapping them one minute and pointing them to foodbanks and multiple zero hours contracts the next. just yuck.

Trust me it is worse than you think. In the last 6 years we have had 4 Prime Ministers (That includes Liz Truss) and none of them were voted out by the people. 3 of them quit. 4 out of the last 6 prime minister have quit.

She is even worse that Mrs May get her out now!!!!
May's problem is that she was unable to consolidate the party, but in terms of her approach to government she was the last dying breath of the vaguely reasonable moderate Tory, before they gave way to the utter clown show we have in the front benches today.
"My priority is to make sure we deliver the economic stability.." Really !!!

Down here in Australia were are six months into a Labor government after 12 years of our own version of the Tory Party. The new boys are finding billions of dollars in rorts, grants to political mates, massive wastage and economic mismanagement. The savings are going into pensions, defence and healthcare. What you need in the UK is a bit of the same, and only a party with a social agenda will do it. Of course, the problem is also Brexit, and the transfer of Europes financial services hub from London to The Hague. This is whats behind the crash in the Pound and there are also a lot of UK financial institutions on the brink because they they lived off Russian oligarch money. Thats stopped too.

Windfall tax will surely help easing the burden of government debt. However, since Truss is a puppet of big energy companies, it won't happen when she is still the PM.
These companies may also inflate price to make up the difference. That's what I would do if I was these companies. Just make the up the koat money from windfall tax.

@@cup1966wow agreed. The price cap should just be lowered. Never more than 8% of average local income.
More importantly, that price cap shouldn't be subsidised by taxes for us to pay later (As Liz has done).. it should simply be enforced. The market is worth enough for this to work.
The profits would still be very healthy because the cost of extraction has steadily declined, as demand has gone up, for decades. The premiums companies have been earning are more than enough to r+d renewables and get that started, too.
Remind that when Japan's experience falled down into economic recession, the people of Japan had replaced their prime minister many times and then Japan got Mr Shinzo Abe to find out economic solutions

Considering the last Labour government didn't reverse the damage done to the NHS by years of Thatcher and Major deconstruction - I'm not all that sure that the next Labour government would be capable or willing to restore what damage Hunt has probably planned already.
2 years is a long time to wait for an election. He can do a lot of irreparable damage before then.
I know very little about politics, but even I could tell she’s a wrong un.
"Jeremy will do a comprehensive job..."
Of making the clusterfuck worse, I've got a feeling he's going to be tried and found wanting. The least we used to be able to expect from The Tories, was competent governance... 😐
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 WOW The British media is BRUTAL..... wow
Every so often they are. When they aren't corrupt shills at the beck and call of the government to pump out propaganda.
I threw the Chancellor under the bus .... to save my wretched skin until the next crisis. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Is Truss now part of the antigrowth coalition ?
Can she get a photo of Nicola Sturgeon before she goes so we have evidence she actually existed as PM.
The idea that due to the U turns meaning Liz is now part of her anti-growth coalition. Brilliant mate.
Don't worry everyone, her captivating charisma will see her through
@Qaba Saiba, elsewhere on the net someone did a meme with Liz Truss as a maid in Downtown Abbey and that image is imprinted in my mind😁😁
It is an achievement to make us miss the good old days of Johnson
How about an in depth investigation Liz Truss into potential Insider Trading by Kwasi?
Good point well made.
It's got to the stage where you simply cannot say things can't get worse. The tories always seem to find a way.
Just remember the 1995 Labour theme, Things can only get better.
This is her “I am the senate” moment
Here we go, I’ll just blame everyone else but not take any responsibility. How many ministers does she think she can sack before her own party rats will turn on her. If she’s so damn sure she’s right, call an election, see what the voters think.
She'd be toast and she knowss it.
Resign!
Was Jeremy Hunt even in her cabinet before this?
What goes around comes around. Betrayal, U-Turns, scapegoats, self-centeredness. No INTEGRITY.
IN LIZ WE TRUSS!! #THANKYOU # BLESSED
What a load of Bollox Steve Brian just said😂 Call a General Election!
This has to be the beginning of the end for Liz, right?
And I thought Borris was a clown 🤡
At this point it’s hard to watch, It’s better for everyone including herself if she steps down
As the King said: "dear oh dear"!
PM's press conference was so cringe-worthy to watch.
May this cure everyone of any imposter syndrome they suffer from
Good One..
It's impostor not imposter.
@@jameshogan6142 it's either.
@@AliDixon95 So if the word is pronounced as imposter (as in circus poster) you are fine with that?
@@jameshogan6142 why would the pronounciation of the o change? Stop being ridiculous
People said Rishi was a back stabber but nothing compares to this woman. Her and Kwasi were as thick as thieves at the conference, even with her throwing him a wink, yet she sacked him to save her own skin. They were in it together and they should go together. She will sack anyone who gets in her way. If that party wants to save it;s skin, they will get rid of her, after all, we, the public, have no say in the matter.
Rishi Sunak at least had a brain
And more heart.
@@mitchhills4747 and a tax-dodging shrew of a wife...la de dah de dah...
Interesting. I feel for the poor the most.
the most what?
The PM approved the budget, she should resign asap and do at least one honourable thing.
She needs to leave NOW?
Man this is almost worse than Trump administrations 1st 100 days.
