- Boris Johnson says he won't be giving his support to any of the 11 candidates in the race to replace him as Tory leader, because he doesn't want to damage anyone's chances.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
But one of the contenders, former Health Secretary Sajid Javid, has already described the contest itself as damaging. He warned "this isn't House of Cards".

They make me want to puke.
I must admit... reading the comments... this is the one that hits home the most...!!!
This is a squalid shower, rotten to the core... full of Patsies and Yes Men, Lick-spittles and Show Ponies... and lastly, heartless, self serving charlatans that drape themselves in the flag, while selling the family silver.
The UK is in serious trouble.
Me too.
Me too
Me too.
Me too. They think they've saved themselves by getting rid of Boris, like they aren't all just as entitled, despicable and completely incompetent.
Johnson nominates Boris Johnson as the next leader of the conservative party.
Hurrrayyy for the Boris Johnson! The new Prime Minister of U.K! Hurrrayyy for the victory day!
Who got Brexit Done?
And why not ?
Great comment! Lol
@@kennethhopeland1549 It's not done. The Tories are still puffing up their chest every other week about how they're going to break international law by ignoring the Northern Ireland protocol
No to Rishi "call me judgemental if you will" He speaks for the rich , the gap between rich and poor has widened thanks to the tory government, they fixate on the 3 amazing things they have achieved in power, but quite frankly forget about the NHS the POLICE our fire service train drivers carers bin men , the mental health system is non existent the judicial system is broken, cost of living energy hikes tax hikes ect ect ...
This man is so far out of touch with the general public its unreal
Rishi is an overrated politician, he has no clue. Even during Covid nightmare, it was Gordon Brown who guided them helping businesses, etc. And of course Piers Morgan, single-handedly morning after morning, did the job of the opposition party holding the government to account.
Not quite as out of reach with ordinary people as is/was Johnson. Kenneth Clarke ex senior Tory minister stated on Twitter that ‘Johnson couldn’t run a bath’
How his corruption seems to have been immediatley forgotten . . . maybe there was something in the injections? LOL!
What are those "3 amazing things" exactly? I cannot find a single one.
Great points, but once the campaign starts and the mind games start, the electorate fall for the sound bites. Let's see what happens.
All this is becoming a bit of a farce lately.... I'm very concerned about the future of Britain.
Don't vote for this horrible party next election.
Well we might as well keep Boris in, this lot are blowing their own trumpets, and the sound is no good.
Lately??? The future of britain has been plummeting since 2016 …. (And for that matter since 2010)
@@peggytaylor6863 yes, let’s keep a demonstrable liar, a convicted criminal in no 10, overseeing the greatest decline in living standards since the 1950s, and millions of people’s rights and freedoms stolen by the Tory-brexit mafia … may I suggest you stop reading the DM?
@@snafutube Yes it seems we will be getting Rishi instead, he wrote his speech before even resigning. Very impressive!
We need General Election with Proportional Representation!
No confidence in any of the candidates or hope!
Boris Johnson is the 'Lion of U.K'
@@AsadAli-jc5tg not much of a lion when the uk is breaking up because of him and brexshitters
It's a contest between who can make the already rich even richer.
We need a General Election with Proportional Representation!
No hope or confidence in these candidates.
To true the system we have is a joke like the CLOWN we had for a priminister.
The polls that had 'None Of The Above' and 'Don't Know' as by far the top choices in the leadership race were absolutely spot on.
What a dismal bunch of self-serving chancers
Hahaha! A strong man like Boris Johnson can eat these wannabes like carrots and biscuits!
@@AsadAli-jc5tg Johnson a “strong man”? This is satire right? He once even hid in a fridge to avoid reporters ffs
How on earth can we go through 3 prime ministers in 6-7 years? It’s becoming a joke
Australia went through 5 in about as many years from 2010
Becasue people keep voting for 'em!
@@ricmorris9758 Who else can I vote for? I don't see any other options. The swing voters are now voting Democrats, not Labour. The extreme left destroyed themselves.
Stop voting is the answer, as none are worth voting for.
He's probably prepared statements backing them all and will use whichever is the most expedient, just like his articles on Brexit.
They will all do that. That's how a party works.
@@julianshepherd2038 they can't all do that. They can congratulate the winner and pledge future support but they can't say otherwise when they have openly backed a candidate who didn't get the votes.
nah the trick is when you write the speech, don't fill the name in
@@DarkShroom it'd be hilarious if a statement was published with [INSERT NAME HERE]
Yes, initially Johnson was in favour of staying in the EU but decided he would gain more brownie points (become PM) by going for Brexit. He has left this country in the mire and more divided than ever. The laughing stock of the world. A liar, cheat and serial adulterer, a totally delusional madman. My only wish now is that he is aware of how the PEOPLE feel, and not just the parliamentary Conservative Party, want him gone and OUT. Do you think some kind person brings these posts and many others to his attention?
So we should trust the opinion of the people who elected Boris to select the next glorious leader........
Boris !
Lowering taxes for low and middle classes, increasing them for the higher ones. A fairer redistribution of wealth is urgently needed in the UK. We should look at Germany and Scandinavian countries and end austerity. The Tories have been squeezing the people and playing them against each other for decades. They have actually killed thousands All these candidates backed Johnson and might not be so lazy but they are not better.
Nothing will change, for England the future is bleak, welcome to brexit.
@X Of course they are 😆
@X it's gas, not oil, they are more dependent on. And our solution to that is to get in bed with the Saudis, who you can bet in a few decades will be the next nightmare state. It's more by luck than good judgement. Also Germany is *in* the EU, it is not *the whole* EU...

In 2010, the UK was a moderately prosperous EU Member State with a recovering economy - and then George Osborne happened.
George Osborne did not want the UK to leave the EU
@@johnking5174 That's common knowledge. Thanks for sharing.
I've definitely noticed a huge decline in this country since they Tories came to power. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING is far worse. Some who are early 20s and teens won't know or remember any different, but it wasn't always this miserable
@@lauralishes1 how old are you
@@lauralishes1 I hate them all, I was 10 when the tories came to power and year on year things have got so much harder for us all and the disgusting way the tories treat those of different social classes while riding high on the work of those very people makes me fucking furious
12 years of mismanagement and incompetence. The Tories are a mess.
Just when Boris Johnson was fixing everything he was ousted. It was a conspiracy hatched in Paris and implemented through their Windsor agents.
@@AsadAli-jc5tg 😂
Lies flying everywhere - the same ones as have been so closely aligned with Bojo this whole time lying for him to the public, still lying - they've decided Bojo is too much of an embarrassment, but they were right in there committing crimes too-
Yh, suddenly ethics and morals are important. They've been ignoring both for years, whilst enabling bojo
They are acting like they are here to rescue the country from disaster. Um someone should tell them they were literally in government
Why don't we all apologize to Boris and ask him to come back.
He's not gone, and if we don't act, he's not going. Of course he won't name a preference, his preference is him.
This whole drama is unnecessary get him out now and let someone, however, incompetent, (his deputy) be a temporary PM. Boris is up to something. He should be gone, but I fear he can cause as much havoc inside or outside the tent.
@@elaineedgar2913 When he's kicked out he'll go back to writing for some dreadful tabloid but I think way fewer people will listen to him now he's shown how awful of a leader he is

@andypdq: That claim is one of the most bizarre things I’ve heard a politician utter recently and there’s no shortage of odd things to choose from. The country is just as divided as ever on Brexit; anyone with a modicum of common sense can see that as you rightly point out.
I'm pretty sure she was referring to the Conservative Party
@@rayititoman And the country!!! Absolutely ridiculous woman.

Personally, I wouldn't back anyone who stabbed me in the back and a saying comes to mind 'The Ides of March' ,even if it was a few months late.
You can still back, Boris Johnson again.
Good grief… the Tories… wow… is this a David Brent impersonation contest or something? 😆
Tax cuts don't help anyone, besides the very wealthy who don't need tax cuts..
it's on the basis of it being a stimlus... actually it's sound economic theory to try and provide a stimulus at the moment
Mountebanks
Whether it is cutting down taxes on the working class and slashing public spending, or increasing/maintaining a high rate of taxes on the working class.
The Tories all agree: never lay a finger on the profits of their corporate overlords by increasing corporate tax.
Here's an idea: Take a country wracked by pandemic and Brexit financially, with brewing inflation and a theoretical support of Ukraine, and take $50 Billion out of the government, cut services left and right by 20-50% and see where things fall in 3 years. My prediction? British health care goes private within 5 years.
We save 350million pounds everyday just be leaving the EU. 50 billion is peanuts. 365x350million =£1,000,000,000,000,000

They're all of such low quality, why would he besmirch his reputation any further by backing any of that rabble.
Seems He’s backing Sunak.
This must be the weirdest nominations for PM ever.
A country of 60 million souls and this is the best they can come up with?
Why is it every tory minister who is a tax dodging multi millionaire identifies as a working class salt of the earth type who just got all calls right through out their life , tory rats feasting on their bloated leaders corpse , it's true a week is along time in politics .

Boris smirking: Pick Your Next Poison... Britain!
It's a very sad day when a ukip person (G Useless) actually has a voice in this debate.
More like he thinks they all stabbed him in the back. If you support one, you have no leverage/ favours from the others
The man who blamed everyone but himself now finds everyone but himself blames him. It's a really dismal choice in the top runners as well.
The outgoing disaster should have no say or vote with regard to the next incumbent.
When Boris became so toxic he can't even back a candidate
We all know who is Boris Johnson´s favourite candidate and the only one he is rooting for... It´s no one else other than Boris Johnson!
It be any female candidate to father his next child.
What a sickening spectacle.
I find it interesting that all the 'Brutus' that 'served' in his cabinet have all declared their interest to 'serve as party leader'.. If this were the U.S.A we'd all be laughing at the stupidity of it. Yet here we are !
What a load of nonsense
360p... Times must be hard in the UK
I don't know how I would learn more if I could see better.
It's just Channel 4 interviewing bastards
But they will still keep coming here
Rats in a sack. Hardly reassuring that we will be led by the chief rat. Tories out.
Boris Johnson should make his own party. The ardent Johnson-ists have even come out with the name of the new party 'The Fantastic Party'.
the guy in the background a middle aged MP showing his young mistress the building, wouldn't surprise me.
If Boris announces he is backing someone, it may hurt their candidature rather than help him.

Talk to me in a years time and see which taxes are lowered. NONE
In the wilderness? Even going for the Jewish vote...

Well he is absolutely correct not to support a candidate.

"my sister's a wonder journalist" - umm no she's not
Apparently writing articles defending Ghislaine Maxwell is excellent journalism now!
I had no idea she was defined as a journalist! House and Home Magazine salad bowl expert!
That is the right thing for him to do, but I am pretty sure that he and his allies would try tacitly to undermine Rishi Sunak. Fair play is not what BoJo is known for. Sunak is failed, of course, and treacherous, but this is a different story.
Good we want Boris not him tyvm
"PM who is your pick?"
"Baaaah, urrrrrm, vrooom vroom, gaaaaah.....Me"

Hands off channel 4
I love the tory supporters wearing the Dutch colours on his hat
People saying 'Boris this, Boris that' are not even comparable to his night slippers.
Get the lot of them out ! Tired of the snob party
The public voted for Boris and not the Tories, we need General election NOW
No, they didn’t. He’s Prime Minister, not President.
The public voted for the party and not boris .
Didn’t Grant Shapps use another name some couple of years ago, when trying to sell a ‘get rich quick’ scam. What about talking to him about that?
@Elaine Edgar: To quote Have I Got News for You (which seems to be more accurate than most news outlets), Grant Shapps’ launch of a leadership bid has increased the number of candidates from 10 to 14.
To which they’re no doubt thankful. It’d be like death resting his hand on your shoulder.
Very apt watching sweaty Tories try to inspire and vie in the summer of '22! If only it was public outrage and even more criminal charges than the huge amount they've already faced that had them perspiring.
I'm not even halfway through this and I'm starting to feel quite queasy
Anyone saying we should reduce taxes doesn't understand demographics. The population of the Boomer has come and is now aged with many requiring care. The Boomer generation was a particularly large cohort and the burden for their social care will be on the smaller young generation. In addition to this, the Boomer generation took more money than they produced per individual which puts a further strain. This means the income for the government will have to increase so it's no longer if we should raise or lower taxes but rather how slowly or quickly we should raise them. The candidates that suggest such tax cuts are a symbol of the Tory party turning more and more right-wing.
Yep unfortunately that makes rishi the best candidate.
makes me laugh like they don't know whats going on they have been part of it for 12 years do they think people are that stupid
Yeah not all that much different from Lord Dampnut, petty.
Bojo is waiting for Putin to make the pick.
"...he doesn't want to damage anyone's chances". Only the country .
Why is there no sound on this video? All other vids have sound. So confused.
turn your hearing aid on, there is sound.
He knows… it’s gona get worse.
"Whilst we have loads of talent in the party" ......
Certainly brexit is not Ukexit
Only person who’s picking the next PM is Rupert Murdoch.
So true Alex! He exploits the Media to line his Coffers!
64Million and something people (UK/Britain) how much is that periodically?
They're all sweet words but they are all liars too!
Avoiding to back any one of them at this stage, and correctly identifying the reason - that anyone backed by him will have their chances damaged - is a rare sensible decision by him. However, will he characteristically break his promise and back someone out of spite in a couple of days' time?
Channel 4 sort out your video quality
Pleeeeeeease
Well, as Boris has, how shall we say, departed, I nominate MYSELF as the new leader!
is the new PM going to fulfill the promise written on the RED BUS? P.s where is parked the bus now?
In the Old Joe junkyard.
It's terribly unfair! People should stop saying unkind things about all those nice multi-billionaires in the Tory party. They're lovely people and they really have our interests at heart.
Tory Starmer to the rescue? LOL!
@@RobertSmith-xl2lc The lesser of two evils perhaps? France eventually chose Macron over Le Pen, a tough one but the right choice. These candidates lining up to become leader give me the creeps. All of them. Starmer doesn't.
@@owlteachereducation But France essentially "choose" even more WEF. I think they needed a change, whoever it was . . .
@@RobertSmith-xl2lc Yes, they needed a change, but it wasn't there. The stark reality in the second round was similar to the choice between Le Pen senior and Chirac in the 2002 presidential election.

Only if politicians talk less and do more
Why should he name. You would only call him biased
Boris is an American after all. I think if Rishi hadn’t resigned he might have been the sort that could enjoy a jolly old time in the Hamptons where BoJo is from.
He was in America for only 4 of the first 5 years of his life before his family returned to Britain. He's only American born because his parents were working in New York at the time, doesn't really make him American in my view. How many kids for example were born abroad because their parents were stationed overseas with the armed forces? They are still British kids.
Boris Johnson is the 'Lion of U.K'
