- Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has slammed Prime Minister Liz Truss for not turning up to answer his Urgent Question on the sacking of Kwasi Kwarteng.
Mr Starmer had called for Ms Truss to come to the Commons and answer the question in front of MPs, but instead sent former Tory leadership contest rival Penny Mordaunt.

The burst of laughter when they announce her absence killled me 🤣 almost spit out my coffee
'The piano is detained on urgent business' was the subtitle!
She was discussing world war 3 with the war cabinet . But that isn't important to the silly bits because they don't think that will happen
"I'm quite confident the leader of the opposition will not have his 15 minutes of fame" - something tells me that the confidence of someone who lost to Liz Truss probably isn't something we should be taking as seriously as she takes it.
She is incredibly arrogant and cocky given what's happened.
Hunt has tried to appear considered, but she just piles on.
Its pretty appalling.
I don't suppose Penny would care to bet on that....
'The lady's not for turning... up' is one of the best wise cracks Starmer has come up with...
She's hiding in a fridge
maybe he has a whisker of a charisma after all (only competence is required though).
@@SLPCaires compared to Liz Truss even a sloth can be seen as Charismatic
@@SLPCaires I like Starmer, but they obviously have other helps with these lines.
I don't get it...
“Under this government everybody gets to be prime minster for 15 minutes” damnnnnnn
What a great line!
Tories really out here cutting taxes for billionaires and saying “it took courage” 😅
I mean it must have taken lot of courage to Fuk poor ppl ova nd obey their rich masters
They were not lying there.
It really takes a lot of courage to tell the working/middle classes to Fxxx off whilst cutting the taxes to the richest in society.
Cutting taxes for billionaires is fine as long as they cut taxes for the rest of us. Let's all erase taxes down to zero and see if the economy can shoot through the roof into paradise type of total prosperity.
@@pjeng1 good lucky with that idea 😅???
@@pjeng1 and what's the point of a growing economy if there's no benefits for the country
Absolutely brilliant. I never imagined that yes minister and yes prime minister could be matched by reality.
Spot on. Well done. Permit to add the name of Baldrick to those of Sir Humphrey and Jim Hacker. I just wonder if the hapless PM has got a cunning plan up her sleeve? I think we should be told. As for Shakespeare's comedies and tragedies, Twelfth Night's Sir Andrew Aguecheek comes to mind, played in drag by the hapless PM, who informs the House of Commons: "I knew 'twas I, for many do call me fool."
The insults in English politics is hilarious. Its rarely a straight insult, it's usually wrapped up in a compliment or bit of sarcasm.
British
@@eddyd63 Not many compliments in Northern Irish politics edwind
Use of the English Language means dagger insult veiled in complimentary sarcasm.
For the moment lol!
Barbed wit, I call it...
Yeah I'm not too sure people would say I was showing "courage" if I didn't turn up for work lmao.
Right lol.
The first time Kia since becoming the Labour Leader landed a Killer Blow .
The lady's not for turning up, but she's definitely up for U-turning all her policies ! 😀
Nice one Keir !
We need dianne abbot and keir
Liz truss is hiding in a fridge with Boris Johnson 😂😂😂😂
It’s just a joy to watch him now.
I don’t even like labour but with the mess the whole Conservative party have made, at this point id vote for him, should have never got rid of Boris in my opinion
@@KrypTehEdits Boris wasn't much better though, the conservatives should've voted in Rishi, Penny or Kemi. They've shot themselves in the foot with dizzy Liz.
@@KrypTehEdits Boris lied too much, and abused his power too much. In my country, Norway, he would have been forced to resign after it was revealed a private individual had paid for work done on his private flat. In Norway that would have been seen as taking a bribe. In Norway members of Parliament, including one party leader, one deputy party leader, and one first speaker in Parliament - the speaker of the full chamber, both of the two sub chambers have their own speakers - have all had to resign after it was discovered they had been asigned Parliament flats, despite they weren't supposed to. Two of them had withheld that they owned homes closer to Parliament than 40 k. The party leader had rented it out, and claimed to live with his parents in Kristiansand, and therefore applied for å Parliament flat when he got elected to Parliament. The speaker didn't give a specific reason, but it has later been alleged she was separated from the man she lived with at that time, and therefore felt she didn't have another home at the time, despite she still owned half the house she had lived in. The deputy party leader claimed to be living in a flat in Stavanger, but in fact lived with her boyfriend in Oslo. All three of them, within days, had to resign as leader, speaker and deputy leader as a consequence. Two members of Parliament were discovered to have committed fraud. One of them so seriously he was arrested by the police, and later convicted to jail. The other had secured himself free holidays by having a single quick meetings with a local mayor or politician at the Holiday spot he visited, so he could claim the costs and transport as representation and expenditures. All the things BJ has done, being fined for having broken Covid regulations his own government had implemented, taking a bribe (in Norway for a MP to have someone else pay for his private expenditures or investments would have been regarded to be corruption), appointing an MP to his government which he knew was under investigation for sexual misconduct, and worse of all: lying to Parliament. Had a Norwegian PM been caught doing that, that would have been the end of that government.
@@Tvjunkieful12 We used to have similar standards for honesty and integrity elected officials in Westminster until 2015. The Leave/Remain European referendum set a precedent that "truth is relative" in politics but it finally seems to have reached it's ultimate conclusion with the Tory party being snapped back to reality with astonishingly low polling numbers - they could realistically get less seats than the SNP if/when a general election is triggered.
@@matomatic4599 Starmer seems to be pretty decent. He offered to resign if he was fined for that beer and food in Durham. Johnson was fined, but stayed until he was pushed. I wonder if the Tories are making more damage long term by not agreeing to an election now? Especially if the budget will contain large cuts in spending that will be disliked by a majority of the public. If the tories ignore the anger in the population, demanding an election, could that mean the 2024 election will have Labour and the Liberals as the two largest parties? So maybe the SNP will be bigger than the Tories? I imagine Mrs Thatcher would be apalled.lol
I think Sir Keir will have a decade of fame not just 15 minutes.
Surely the so-called Deputy PM should have been atvthe dispatch box.
Who is it this week?
She's a twit. Could never speak so eloquently. No business in any of her roles.
Seems like the deputy pm is Penny mordent
Pulling a Boris and hiding in a fridge. What a clamp that woman is.
Hahaha clamp!
we call her Mistrust ! for good reasons ..
I get the feeling her 15 minutes of fame quip is going to age like milk
I do hope so.
The same milk that thatcher snatched lol
She is toast.
This is called "running away from war"
Sir Kier Starmer has the courtesy of looking at Penny Mordaunt as he addresses his comments to the government, but she keeps her head down refusing to make eye contact. She shows a complete lack of manners or respect, which seems endemic within many of the Tory ranks.
She is just as uppity as Liz!
She might just feel embarrassed about the whole situation. She's not really a polished speaker. FYI I'm not a Tory fan.
Really! All politicians lie readily including Starmer. It seems they have all forgotten they are ELECTED by the general public to represent them ... but in truth don't give a damn about the elector
It’s clear that all those who sit there have no mortgages and can easy afford an energy price hike. Do they have any idea how people feel about this spectacle?
Lol brutal…”everyone gets to be prime minister for 15 minutes”
This gives new meaning to the phrase `a penny for your thoughts` :)
@Bella beep boop beep 🤖
😂😂
@Bella Finally, it isn't.
I can't imagine what on earth could be more important to Truss than trying to sort out the utter mess she has caused. We all know that's an excuse though, it was good old fashioned cowardice to not turn up and face the music.
Best that she buggers off to
Chequers for the week and
Leave Jeremy Hunt to sort
Her mess out. At least he is
A traditional tory who will
Have the balls to cut spending
To get the deficit down. Truss
Isn't even a real tory, was a
Bloody lib Dem.
That's like being the mongrel
Dog of British politics.
No pedigree.
We need an election we simple can't leave these clowns masquerading as Conservatives in control of our nation any longer. I'm a Conservative these people are not and to be honest we have arrived at a point where it's impossible to imagine how The Labour Party could do worse.
In America we have problems with gerrymandering and corruption, but at least we have our elections every 2 and 4 years. That the UK is basically doomed to whatever party is in power with no mechanism to call a new election except when the party in charge says it's ok is nuts.
Oh we reached that conclusion a long time ago!
I didn't realise it's 'courageous' not to turn up to work.
She is detained..... Well may be King Charles put her in the Tower... Oh dear, oh dear.....
This is a theatre! I was laughing my socks off! Ha ha ha. Prime Minister is not here! This is hilarious!
No it's not good. The whole of Parliament whatever colour is making a mockery of the general.public ... not carry out what their duty to God, King & country. They are an absolute disgrace & making the UK a laughing stock to the world
Even some Tories were laughing at Keir's joke 🤣
Its not his joke his speeches are written fir him
@@moniquesmith3236 ok and? All I know is he delivered it.
I'm not a Labour supporter, but that was lethal!
Even the Tories were laughing at the vision of Truss under a desk 😂
She was admiring the stability in its construction
@@jonnyc429 not taking notes however
Because they knew it was true.
This was actually really funny.
I can’t wait for Wednesday’s PMQ’s 😂😂
She won’t be there
She'll submit a doctor's line into the house for her absence ,cause , dizzy spells to many u-turns.
I'm looking forward to seeing if she's still the PM by Wednesday 😄 f*cking clowns.
Are they still calling it the growth plan or is it the anti growth plan now? I'm confused.
This lady is not turning…but she is for spinning 😂
This just confirms how completely the Tories are done and they know it lol :D
It's rather beautiful to see their revolting, bloated faces looking so miserable.
Never say never!
They should have given Penny the job, she seems up to it.
The problem is all the tools behind her 🤣🤣
She should stop sending weapons to fascist regime in ucraine and all uk should go to the churches and pray and repent and then change might be huge
Totally agree, Mordaunt is head & shoulders better!
The Tory party is too fractured after 12 years in power, it's likely whoever was elected by the drawn out leadership contest wouldn't have mattered.
Note also most of the Tory party doesn't agree with Mordaunt's views on transgender rights.
I'm glad that these clowns find this entire thing so hilarious... The cost of energy bills is the number one issue on most people's minds, whether they're currently choosing between heating their homes and eating or not... WORKING people with reasonably good jobs are facing financial ruin. This "government" gave a two year lifeline against the energy crisis, spent a few weeks bragging about it, and now today renege on their word, leaving many again facing disaster in 6 months time. The best the "opposition" can do is mock them and jeer. Why are we putting up with this from any of them?? None of them are fit to make decisions for us and it's time they were all removed from the job they clearly can't do... taking care of the PEOPLE of this country... it makes me sick.
This will bankrupt every circus in the world!
To be fair she's a lot better than any of the ones the Tories have put as leader. Why isn't she in charge?
Well this 15 minutes Prime Minister seems better than the real one. She's very confident.
Whatever. She’s a Tory and desperate to save the Tories not the country.
@@billpugh58 The Tories were voted in by us with a resounding majority that they've just pissed up against the wall under the guidance of that total buffoon Boris. I think Penny Mordaunt was impressive here up against the baying mob, and whilst we may get a Labour government next, I'd wager it will be just as hopeless. I just can't understand how the idiots have now put Ms Truss at the helm, she's clueless and can barely string 3 words together.
The speaker will pay for his cup of tea, brilliant.
Looks like they are keeping Coffey the Deputy PM under wraps as well.
There’s that many u turns ,people are getting dizzy 😳!
Its better than central comedy show for roast... 😂
Sir Keir Starmer for Prime Minister!
Almost a certainty. This clown show needs to pack up and f*ck off.
😱😱😱
Mordaunt has an impossible task here but she’s giving it her all. I mean it’s bs from start to finish but even so she spouts the crap quite articulately and a million plus Tories up and down the land must be saying ‘Why oh why didn’t we pick HER’
I'm sure they would have if she was in the final 2.
Hat tip to Penny for taking the flak.
The puppets aren’t even being put out on stage anymore
Well, that was totally ....Expected.
Tories are a complete joke.
So, had Mordant got the job as PM, looks like to me she'd've been just as bad a train wreck. Everybody should be pushing for a general election now!!
really? this seems like pretty standard damage control to me.
Penny Mordaunt is her name, and she made a good job of defending the non appearance of the current PM
That's what I hate about all this they treat everything like it's a joke when peoples lives are on the line. Instead they just use comedy it's a complete joke
Once Bojo went. Penny Mordant was the obvious choice for replacement. I do not like the torys but she is a credible political representative
And the Tory party has left all dignity, honesty, empathy and care for the people of UK behind in their pursuit of remaining in power for the sake of power.
The spin and excuses they make to justify their incompetence
I wish normal everyday citizens could be in there and ask direct questions
I thought Therese Coffey was deputy prime minister??
This is just painful from Penny
Brave Liz Truss, like Sir Robin, she ran away....
Embarrassing, last four PM’s haven’t even seen out a full term
That’s the funniest thing kier has ever said 😂😂😂
Keir? Who's Keir?
They need a revolving door fitting to number 10
Is the UK England yet?
🎵 Bravely bold Tin Lizzy, Rode forth from Westminster 🎵
This government is a joke! 🤣🤣
whoever she is, she did pretty well
Penny Mordaunt ran in the
Leadership race. Would have
Been better than truss.
Has some fight in her and
Would give that witless Starmer
A run for his money.
That's Penny Mordaunt, she came third in the leadership contest, and she has eyes on the premiership. Mordaunt basically couldn't defend the government's position so she went on the counteroffensive and made vague attacks against labour, and kept falling back to the same lines. Despite all her energetic bluster, it was a disaster in the commons for the Tories today because of the PM's failure to turn up to answer any of the questions.
This is great I love watching the Parliament
I have to say that that Lady did very well for being thrown in there
"The Lady is not for turning... Up" will stick like the proverbial 5h1t to a blanket. Bravo! :D
...isn't there a Deputy Prime Minister...?
How embarrassing🙈 is that 🤭🤭 15 minute PM's 🤣
Mordaunt auditioning for the PM's job! ... it's pathetic!
It's hilarious 😂 as a former British colony
Everybody get to be Prime Minister for 15 minutes.....
That's nail it most hilarious for UK.
Reply
Leader of the opposition Not have his 15 minutes....
Too good to.... Wow...stunning
Someone head-butting the table at 00:08
The lady is not for turning -Starmee at his wittiest
The supply teacher is crying 😭
I love British politics ... humor ... and more
She's probably stuck in a room pushing a door that has pull written on it.
Haha
Truss, Liz Truss. To be absent without leave. See what I did there!!🤣🤣🤣
That's says it all! At least Boris whom I can't stand had the courage to face his faults. I can't believe I said that about Boris
Face his faults? He denied and lied and lied. She’s horrendous but he’s no different
Just what I was thinking.
Face his faults? He literally lied so much he's basically a miniature trump.
When the hell did he do that? Seriously, name ONE time he accepted responsibility rather than slime out of it with a smile and a wink.
When did he face his faults?? He lied over and over again and never showed any signs of courage or facing his faults EVER 😀😂
trusted up like a chicken... Penny's 15 mins didn't go too bad, I thought !!
Well, I can truly say Penny should have been the chosen one. A force to be recorded with.
General election Now now now now now now now now now
Well said Mr starmer
The last time I saw someone beaten so badly, their corner threw in the towel
Typically in such situations they skip the ambulance and just call the hearse.
I'm thinking of that quote from wrestling commentator Jim Ross: "For the love of God, somebody stop the damn match!"
Reminds me of Apollo Creed Vs Ivan Drago.
well, I think UK's decision to leave the EU was a big mistake. Now, UK is starting to see the impact.
The House has practically collapsed as Truss could not support the roof, it was too weak to bear the weight of the responsibility of the PM office. Liz has left through the back door and it slammed shut!
I don't like Starmer much but he does make some very good points
His ghost writer does!
The cap on bankers bonus is to be lifted....Lol
IMO, Penny Mordaunt was able counter Keir Starmer very effectively. If one is to extrapolate this to what were to come off in near future, it could be argued that Truss is on her way out and Penny could be sworn in as PM very soon.
That's what she believes.
Whatever. Mordaunt is just more same old same old!
Wouldn't matter. The revolving door of increasingly shambolic leadership has destroyed trust in the Tories. I don't think there's ANYTHING they could do to reverse this tailspin.
Absolutely no shame
Truss should be made to appear ! We the tax payer are paying for her incompetence and therefore should be answerable 😡😡
It's like a centre forward who costs a lot, is not only a flop, but can't even turn up on time for the kick-off. Half-time Liz.
TAKES COURAGE
to stick to the guns and push through HER ELECTION PROMISES
Steering a ship without a captain
Wait is Penny PM now, I thought Jeremy was. I can't keep up 😅
"Detained on urgent business"..... she's locked herself in the "Ladies"!
Penny Mordaunt just fills the air with noise.
They do seem to be making it easy for Starmer to take pot shots at them. A cunning plan? Doubt it! Lol
What a embarrassing government this is .
😆 if I didn't laugh I'd cry 😢😂😂 wtaf?
