This episode of Game of Thrones is weird.
theres alot of more black folk that in GoT
House of the dragon
Yep, very boring. Just how we like it.
House of greed
yes but it was extras in the serie
Sunak - "labour have a monumental task ahead of them"
I wonder why that is Rishi!
Last time labour got in they bankrupted the country, let's hope that doesn't happen again
Let's hope labour does not bankrupt the country again after last time
@@pauldangerfield3122 that was a global issue in 2008
@@pauldangerfield3122they handled it incorrectly, but the crash was worldwide, ergo, not Labour's fault
It was a gloabl issue in 2008, as is the the reason for labours monumental task. Covid, and then inflation, and the narrow avoidance of hard recessions world wide are why they will have to first grow the economy before anything drastic changes. The question is will they last long enough to make a change
It’s so weird seeing Labour on the left and Conservative on the right, weird rishi calling Starmer prime minister
It really is..😢
since 2010
Weird, yet wonderful ;-)
So weird that u couldn't even say it correctly
@@chriswatson3464 thanks I meant starmer
Its odd not to have Dennis skinner sat there insulting black rod
Dodgy Dave knows something about it
The way he shouted black rod I thought he got it up the back side 🤣😂💀🤷♂️
And to think if he kept his seat in 2019 he would be 'Father of the House'.
Farage has no class! What a tool !
Rip legend ✊
It looks silly, but I have a feeling of immense respect for the sense of tradition that this displays.
This is decent. Royalty is bollocks.
Which nigel farage had to go and ruin.
Good. Without tradition everything is bland.
Continuity
with decency and respect that
@@lilme7052 An ignorant and unfounded statement.
That's the first time I've seen Rishi looking relaxed. I genuinely think opposition suits him.
Retirement from politics will suit him better
look how he reacts when liberal dems leader mentions NHS, sewage in rivers etc. Not so relaxed
Reform would have been a better opposition
@@bookie5667or chilling in his California luxury home
@@bookie5667was he elected ?
It's funny how Sunak came across as more ministerial and genuine as LOTO than he ever did as PM.
The thing he got nothing to lose now. Sadly if he ever did act like this as a prime minster, people would have voted him into office.
I miss Dennis Skinner
He was entertaining.
True
@lostintranslation1957 he was without a doubt, but that aside, he meant business and was genuine and down to earth. True legend 🙌🏾 he will be sadly missed
US guy here. It’s sooo wild how quickly the transition from one PM to another is. It’s been like 3-4 days since election? Here in the US, the election is first Tuesday in Nov. then we wait until January 20th to be sworn in. Almost 3 months, versus 3 days.
Not even three days mate, Starmer was PM the following day after he’d met the king, the ceremony is the outgoing PM meets the king to say he’s leaving closely followed by the winner and the king asks him to form a government.
And there wasn't even an attempted coup!
and our prime minister doesn't need a helicopter to leave no.10 Downing Street when they leave
Presidencial - needs a reform . Three months is time enough to the losers became mad -
US system is stupid. gives outgoing president 10 weeks to lead a multi-faceted coup and sink the economy
American policiticians should watch this and learn something about civility and manners.
Glad I won't hear Rishi Sunak say Inflation is down for the 1000 times
Let’s hope Starmer can genuinely say it!
😂
Or, that "he has a plan and the plan is working"
He's going to start saying it's out of control every week now that Labour are in government probably
Or i have stopped the boats lol
Has to be said, Rishi Sunak was gracious and eloquent.
💯
👍
Yes he's such a gentleman
I'm convinced Sunak is a genuinely good man (as good as a near billionaire can be anyway) who is unfortunately both politically inept and a bit naive.
It often felt like he didn't actually mean half of what came out of his mouth as PM and I mean that as a compliment. Some of it was bizarrely cruel and insensitive. That's not his character.
@@unendingquandary Aside from trying so hard to look like the common man, Rishi is just way too out of touch to not only be a PM, but an MP too.
He should just retire from politics altogether.
Almost laughed out my chair at the DUP speech. No sooner as Londonderry was out his mouth, somebody said 'Derry' over him. xD
he hadnt even finished the word when derry came out
💪🇮🇪
I rewound that bit about 8 times

It's like stepping into a parallel universe... Everything is... Civil?
Really shows what a difference good management makes, doesn't it.
Now think about what effect the tories had on the public attitude...
Looking forward to our renewed nation.
@@Olyfrun I'm not going to lie, I wasn't happy about this at first, and I'm not a tory voter either. I just wanted better and didn't believe labour would do it. But watching this almost brought a tear to my eye. I finally saw a little bit of hope. I really hope this does the country good.
@@codethecreator I agree. We can't control how they will end up governing but our own attitude is just as important. The last government gave us absolutely nothing to be hopeful about.
They really do live in a completely different world to the rest of us.
LMAO this civility has nothing to do with Labour. The first day is traditionally like this.
That was the best and most gracious speech I've ever heard Sunak give.
I think sunaks a good lad. He wants to do good but hes not very good and isnt the man for the job
It would have to be, after the beating he just got handed.
@@teelo523hmm difficult to say really, he never had much time to prove himself as pm
Inside his head, he's saying "Thanks suckers! I've made myself millions more as PM! Woohoo!!"
@@Hairymuffin2010 The Prime Minister's Salary is £172,153 annually, and he was PM for less than two years.
His wife probably made that amount per month in interest! XD
I read that in the dark ages of etiquette and decorum, wine glasses were deliberately made to be fragile to force people around the table to take care in what they were doing.
All this pomp and ceremony involved in parliament could be seen as a similar example. The UK was once a brutal, lawless land and a lot of work has gone into making us a civilisation that works. It might be seen as outdated now, but it harks back to a time where things like this were necessary to keep people orderly.
The more we fall out of love with law and order, the more we fall into the manipulations of corporations and individuals that mean us harm.
👏👏👏
Indeed! This trend toward casual don't-give-a-damn attitudes is no good for us.
Your about 40 years late on that outcome , America owns Britain already .
I disagree. I think we were more civilized back then.
The various formal exchanges are rich in symbolism, which is apt to be underappreciated. Tradition should no be valued for it's own sake, but the value of traditions is that we remember how we got here and not to take the past for granted.
The only time this year the house is full ....smile for the camera
Exactly! Money in their account regardless presence or work ! Vote is not enough

@@philipnapier3585the same old bollocks that they’re both the same is getting old now. the so called look “of mates” is because of their mutual professions, existing and former PM’s and leader of their parties. at the end of a game of football, the oppositions shake hands and it’s no different here. this is a new age of healing in our country and the ones who can’t grasp it have no choice now. come back to this comment in 5 years time and hold me to account but this country will now recover under this new labour party with Sir Kier as PM.
I will now start watching PM's Questions again. I've never watched since John Smith died. He used to have me creased up with laughter.
Well I doubt boring no personality starmer will raise a chuckle.

I have no idea even where Lichfield is, never heard about it before, but when Hoyle mentioned the former MP from there as having a luscious hair, I right away knew whom he was talking about 😂
Hundreds of years of tradition ... Zero years of change for us commonsers.

As a Brit that has moved to the states, this just makes me want to move back. lol
It’s probably safe to do so now.
@@Lynnefromlynfar from save when they keep bringing immigrants in
It's alright, Rishi will be there soon
Swap with me. I'll take your place in America
Really? As far as opportunity, standard of living and $ incomes go, the USA remains far superior. It is refreshing to see this change of government here but don't expect our economy and lives to improve anytime soon let alone match America's.
I kinda love the process. So theatrical. Been this way for generations. With so much change in the world.. its good to see
In the US it’s bit different now
What a difference a few days make. Shame Rishi wasn't so contrite, polite and even likeable when he was on the other side of the house.
He just had to be himself I guess
As a Brit I am so proud to see this constant peaceful & seamless transition of power. They can't even get it right in the USA the so-called "home of democracy".
The only one who can't is Trump. There was never any problem in a transition of power before him

Both the parliament in Ottawa and the provincial parliament in Victoria have the ceremony and the Usher of the Black Rod. Precedents set in these and other houses in Canada are shared with and adopted from Parliament at Westminster.

Such a great speach from Diane Abbott. She was so emotional as her hands were shaking. A truely proud moment. I'm glad that she is an MP in a majority Labour Government!

Nice to see a government making jokes instead of being one
wouldn't it be nice if it were like this all the time?
The tories look shattered. GOOOOOD
Nah they’ll be back
Sunaks professionalism should be recognised here, a shocking prime minister but a decent guy.
Professional he is not. Just a narcissist changing to suit the surroundings
@@roseanncampbell3168 no not at all, he’s a decent bloke
@@Jhutch931 your definition of decent is extremely broad
He was certainly clever to make millions out of a global financial crisis. What a guy!
Sunak has shown professionalism, but that doesn't make him decent.
I expected Blackadder to turn up at one point
Went a lot more smoothly than Jan 6th in the States.

Yes indeed TheYANKS Could be watching a Civilised Parliement in action. Not the blood bath they go in for
Sunak is a perfect gentleman...only if he had power earlier and sufficient time at his disposal he would have proved his worth
18:46 man’s phone goes off and he panics like mad 😭
Need to talk to his wife I guess
Not just any man. That’s Barry Gardiner
Couldn't Farage just show a little bit of humility, just this once.
To those watching from... normal countries, yes this _is_ actually a vital and apparently serious part of our governmental procedure, not some sort of Harry Potter cosplay for a special occasion.
The UK has some really arcane traditions... It's like we're in 2024, but at the same time, we are being transported to some time in the 19th century
Come on its alright, no need to denigrate your country.
No respect for tradition because...its old? Stop being weird
@@anoopkrishnan7013 Who's denigrating anything? Nothing wrong with having a sense of humour about the obvious anachronistic absurdity of it!
Its a little funny. But hey harmless traditions are ok. And the tone of respectful civility. Fake or not. Is valuable.
Was Diane Abbott just nervous, or is she ill?
Long-term medical condition.
She is 70 years old so it could be anything to be fair
Looks like Parkinson's to me
She’s really been beaten about by her own party. It’s pretty horrendous tbf!
Sounded emotional to me
Heard one voice in the background when Mr Speaker was being what looked like dragged to his specific chair " get in" hahaha 😂
It's a full Panto cast, isn't it?

Diane Abbot comedy gold
Did the speaker of the house just paraphrase Uncle Ben from Spider-man 😮
I am Spanish and in my humble opinion: the British parliament has more class and education than the Spanish parliament. Congratulations 👏🏻
This ain't really a compliment is it?
Unfortunately it's all for show though... Nothing really gets achieved or done in there
At least in the Spanish Parliament they have enough seats for everyone to sit down on. That's not the case in the House of Commons, there's only room for around 500 to sit, but there are 650 actual MPs. In the UK, we have a natural propensity for not getting things right, this is a further example of incompetence, even though they've had decades to sort out this obvious problem of getting the number of seats to match the number of MPs.
But there will be no money for the working class , and there will be cut backs and austerity measures.His suit and hands are covered in the blood of Palestinians

They need an elected house of Lords, but it shouldn't be scrapped.

Odd seeing labour in that side of the house. Its been a while.....

It was wonderful, long may they remain at the top 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🌹♥️
How wonderful. People of diverse thought and policy positions can still laugh, jib, and recognize a new day to start the work of the nation anew.
18:43 lol 🤣🤣 the phone ringing
dont know how to shut this down haha space technology :) smash on table !!! :)
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? NO it's black rod!
Farage's speech was cringeworthy
Haha was it hell
The boos were commendable
The truth always hurts!
ORDER!!!!!!
If they are booing then Farage is doing something right!
What a fool Farage is
Amazing both parties put their differences aside and work together. One of the countries that shows maturity in election
Could be Monty Python 😂
Farage brings the house down to a Wetherspoons level, how incredibly sad this clown is in our political system.
It’s no wonder he failed 7 times to be elected. Guy’s a specialist in failure whose biggest achievement is selling a massive lie to Britain. Who left UK politics to buddy up with Trump, until Trump got found guilty, and lo and behold, came crawling back to take control of Reform UK
Gutted that Corbyn lost out on being Father of the House by 2 mins by Leigh, just to embarass Starmer in this panto session
they should've just given both the title
@@thermostance1815 exactly, but they wouldnt do that. Even if Leigh wasnt re-elected, they would find some sort of technicality to overlook Corbyn because parliament including the Speaker is now in the pocket of Labour Together
I like this. The PM becomes the opposition and the opposition becomes the PM. Transparency transparency to its core.
Immediately when Farage starting speaking I heard a certain "Hanging Tough" song...
1:18 The Mace is attached to the side of the Clerk's Desk.
Diane Abbott has gone through a lot within her political career, as a black women I can understand why she sounds emotional ❤❤❤
They hate her don't they? She just keeps going though.
Isn’t the summer recess due to begin on 23 July?
Yes, but the new parliament has to convene before then and PM starmer has said he will shorten the summer break during his parliament because the summer breaks are too long
its good to see that arrogant smirk wiped of Jeremy Hunts face hes not looking happy at all

He was t was he! I’m sad he kept his seat.
He's like Thomas Eichhorst from The Strain TV show.

From an ousted PM to the leader of the opposition, must be a very uncomfortable position. One can feel the awkwardness in the former PM.

Churchill, Attlee and Wilson have all been through the same.
Not really he managed it superbly
Great to see Diane Abbott back...bless her she looked so nervous.

Let's hope he means what he says..."Politics of Service"😊
Elegant? I would call that jurassic!
I think Corbyn missed out on being Father of the House by a few minutes.
Good!
It’s so weird seeing farage in there, his speech started so well, it’s just not in the spirit of the event to go after former speakers like that. Plenty of time for that in the future, just read the room and have some decorum
no time to kiss arse, just get on with it
Farages falseness is all about empty noise. Selling false hope.
Time longer than twine Fafraud is going to run out of twine
Of course Farage starts with an insult, it's just silly.
Telling the Truth has never been popular. The whole thing is just like a pantomime! All this old fashioned language, the pantomime outfits and the whole unreality of the proceedings only increases the distance between the electorate and Westminster and they wonder why the turnout at the last election was so low.
Lisa Nandy made my day. Her happiness was vivid and infectious.
Oh no! Not Lindsey Hoyle!
Hopefully they get things done positively and quickly, Labour deserve a chance
Viva ! Green is growing !

44:16 PMQS are must see t.v. from across the pond & Sir Lindsay Hoyle is a joy to watch as we do not have the same eloquence in the current Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.
Oh damn Lyndsey Hoyle again 😒
Lots of career politician's here... haven't worked a day in their lives!!
Question or two - Does the House have assigned seats for MPs? With the amount of those standing, are there enough seats for each and every member? Needless to say, I am fascinated how the House works.
no they don't have assigned seats
There are 650 MPs, but only enough seats to enable around 500 to actually sit down. It's what we call in the UK an example of 'meticulous planning'. It's been like that for around a century plus, they haven't quite got round to recitfiy the problem just yet, give them a bit more time, they might.
@@petercarney-gt3me So a bit of first-come first-served, to some extent. I understand the front benches but wasn't sure about the others.
it doesnt need rectified as its very rarely close to capacity,churchill kept it this way after damage during the war to maintain the close combative nature of debate,its by design not a mistake,any new chamber would be souless compared to it and the theatre of PMQs would be grately diminished
No assigned seats except for the convention of front benchers on the front bench etc, plus therr are some long standing MPs who get a certain amount of deference to their choice to always sit in the same place. Thinking of Dennis Skinner in his day, Theresa May after she returned to the back benches, and no doubt others. Northern Irish MPs all seem to cluster around the same area as well.
Makes me very proud and hopeful to see the country beginning a new chapter
" Call the Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer" 4 years I was waiting and figthing for... and it' s still a wow
