- I appeared on #bbc #politicslive to discuss the British farming crisis.
Conor Burns however wanted to talk about the something I apparently tweeted about the Tories being capable of criminal greed and are evil 🤷♀️
He also claimed there have been no USA/UK free trade negotiations - which is untrue!
Just nonsense really none of the parties make any sense because they cant admit #brexit has failed.

That Tory talks BS. Liz Wedbster talks common sense.
Well as the old saying goes “ bullshit baffles brains “
@@dantownsend4246 Gosh! I'm in awe of your IQ!
@@dantownsend4246I also had an RSM who said that he didn't like people who used big words. Perhaps you would like to borrow his crayons?
But Liz is making stuff up. There is nothing in the CPTPP that forces the UK to compromise their standards.
Canada tried to force the UK to accept hormone beef and failed. Again they are trying this on with trade talks with the UK, and the trade minister said no and walked away.
She then extrapolates a trade deal with the USA, because some Tories have said they want one.
She moans that trade deals with Aus and NZ are bad deals because some ex minister who us in the other with the party said so.
In reality over all both deals result in a surplus for the UK.
The farmers own research group have suggested that the NZ deal is unlikely to make much difference.
And Aus is more likely to impact Irish and french exports to the UK
The big problem is that UK farmers can't compete due to their own farming practices, and require subsidises which NZ and Aus farmers don't get. But there are differences e.g. seasons offset, frozen Vs fresh meat. The UK farmers do have advantages close to market a loyalty brands, especially in the fresh produce market.
It was actually the EU that had a massive surplus both in foods and other goods.
@@peterclareburt4594. You must have a lot of spare time on your hands ? Didn’t you get the job as a food inspector to ensure our food is safe ?
We MUST return to the EU.
Yeah yeah, we've heard all that by now.
When will you good folk on the UK start talking about what to do in the decades before that happens, sounds to me as more of an emergency than daydreaming about EU membership
You managed to vote yourself out, but you won't be able to vote yourself back in.
Application denied.
@xelakram You know where you can insert that idea.
_We MUST return to the EU_ The UK should certainly try, but it will be a very long haul. And some EU countries might not want the UK back and could veto the future application.
A Tory speaks a Tory lies
We need to give Brexit as much time as we gave the EU (Moggy suggested 50 years) before we see the benefits. Rome wasn't built in a day. The farmers supported Brexit and the Tories, and they will soon see the opportunities and benefits! Liz is jumping the gun here.
@@Holliethedog Making predictions 50 years out is a nice way of saying: "Please shut up, I do not want to hear anything anymore about this F*** up called Brexit ". I got news for you, people are not going to shut up because they are reminded daily what these idiots did to them. This will haunt the ones responsible for the Brexit lie, for the rest of their lives which very likely is much less than 50 years btw.
@@Holliethedog50 years is an exaggeration 10 years would be more accurate.
Just the same as your beloved party and the rest of them.
Labour lie as much as the Tories. I don’t see Sir Kier coming up with anything in the Labour manifesto. Will Labour take us back to Europe? I doubt it.
Burns immediately goes on the attack instead of allying anxieties. Typical Tory weasel.
Attack Liz but not the issues. The Tory way.
There is no way to make brexit work, you can't polish a turd.
@user-ol6rd7pl5t Brexit is doing what I wanted. We have our sovereignty back.
@@dogglebird4430do you? Because those trade deals you made only show you lost sovereignty. A lot of it .
@@dogglebird4430Yes, the UK was very sovereign while bending over backwards to get their deal with Australia done. The deal that mostly benefits... Australia.
@@jcvastgoed1490 That makes zero sense. The UK can and should make its own trade deals, just as most other countries in the world manage to do without being in the EU.
@@maartenaalsmeer Trade deals are a long game. They are established and, over time, the trade relationship flourishes, deepens and expands. As you are clearly not British or in the UK, why don't you focus on your own country's issues instead of interfering in ours? You just can't leave us alone, can you? It's almost as if you secretly fear we will make a massive success of Brexit and other EU members will see that and decide they should follow our example.
Britain and Brexit= chicken stock, beef stock, laughing stock.
Hope Connor Burns is one of the MPs due to lose his seat.
Conor Burns: "Do you still think Tories are capable of criminal greed and are evil?"
Me: "YES"... "Prove me wrong if you can!"
Austerity caused 330,000 deaths, Jenrick helping out it tory friends with tax avoidance, PPE contracts given to tory friends which was not delivered and or badly made. Johnson partying instead of working etc etc. Conor Burns does not have a leg to stand on.
We controled our trade deals when we were in the EU. What's unacceptable are Brexit lies, and foreign money interfiring, British democratic politics. Then the lectures on patriotism.
He came from the party that toldus that Brexit was going to be the bees knees and the spiders ankles.
Thank you Liz for calling out the Tory lies. You were brilliant in not rising to Burns diversion tactics. Please keep speaking up.
I was talking to a PROTESTANT farmer with a large holding in Ballymena wish the Republic of Ireland Department of agriculture was negotiating on their behalf.
Anybody that knows anything about Northern Ireland knows that was a hell of a statement for northern protestant farmer to make.
An interesting use of block capitals there ....
Unbelievable! Nobody seems to be listening to Liz and Labour is completely out to lunch when it comes to Brexit. I admire you so much, Liz, for putting yourself out there trying to talk sense into these dense, clueless numpties. Brava, signora! ❤🎉😊
Thank you ☺️
They ain't dense or clueless. This is a scam that they have pulled off successfully against the under educated British
@@lizwebstersbf You are fantastic. In fairness to Labor, look the Tories have ruined everything and are basically salting the Earth now. Vote for us to stop the bleeding is a pretty terrible campaign slogan. And I'm pretty certain the Torries would spike any Labor policy or at least any mechanism to pay for it out of spite.
Labours fault again lol muppet
Labour representative - 'Britain voted to leave'? A very small percentage voted to leave, not 'Britain'. The biggest lie. EG Scotland voted to remain.
Australia trade deal is a huge joke in Australia,they think we are mad!
Canada just walked away. Trade with the UK or the EU? Duh
Only happy British fish 🐟 😂
You argue your case very elequently and with great patience. "Food security is National security" is something that one can easily remember and therefore quote. Thank you,Liz!
A question asked was What are the Brexit benefit’s to date . Not one of the panel answered . Always about “ tomorrow “ . Like the permanent sign in a pub “free beer tomorrow “
Conor Burns, what a donk. The UK by itself has no negotiating power (nor negotiating expertise) & so any post Brexit trade deals will be on the other country's/bloc's terms & will see the UK at a disadvantage. The only Brexit opportunties are for other nations & British politicians all too willing to sell out the UK.
Himself had the privilege of spending our money living a lavish lifestyle. cheers
Brexit madness,Tory dogma and incompetence!!
It must seem like you're banging your head up against a brick wall with these people Liz. Thank you for being our voice for common sense.
That Conor Burns is a nasty piece of work, isn't he?
CPTPP - tuppence in ten years.
That shameless liar happens to be my MP. 🤮
Maybe not for long...
Well done Liz for outlining this and very well said . It always hurt me when I drove past large signs in farmers fields with “ukip@ and “LEAVE” as I worried that leaving the EU would destabilise and affect our choices and our food quality etc . It is refreshing that farmers have united to protect our food supply .now we have left . Though honestly Brexit is the worst act of demise for our children and the sooner this is reversed the better .
All he had was a slur (as though being a LD and thinking the Tory's are shite is hardly a slur)
As a true Brit, I say clearly and categorically that I do not want to replace the EU's high quality foodstuffs with foodstuffs from the USA, where they have much, much lower standards. No! No! No!
Americans have some food standards!!! I honestly didn't know that.
@@briancohenthepfjmassive.4769 Brian, yes they do, but I can assure you, from quite a lot of experience, that food standards in the States are generally much lower than in the EU. They use hormones in meats and chemicals in fruit and vegetables which are often banned in the EU.
A TORY just cannot let anyone talk they just keep on talking ,and the hoast not letting others reply.
It’s a tactic. Run out the time by running their mouth. Less questions asked and certainly none answered.
"We are recognized internationally for high-end produce" and "there is huge appetite for British produce in international markets"
Never in my life have I heard something along of the lines "mmmm, I'm really craving for some of that delicious British food" :D :D :D
2:00 Exactly what high-end products is the UK known for abroad? Speaking as someone who lives outside the UK I have never heard of a single high-end British food product. Not one.
Im seriously wondering also, I can't think of a thing that we in the Netherlands very much want from England.
Sovereign Tea
I agree.
Scottish whiskey! But the UK gov slaps a union jack on it and calls it british export! 20% of all food and drink exported from uk is whiskey alone
@@dekmackie didn't think of that, but yeah, Scottish whiskey is very much wanted.
Liz you handled yourself beautifully, that smug Tory was baiting you and also he was trying to mansplain to you as you don't understand the greatness of his logic, also have you noticed the old Tory Brexit line ( the opportunities ) which is synonymous with a lie...
Well one benefit for UK farmers is that they can now use many chemicals and pesticides banned for EU farmers.
Lovely?????
They can also run off more polluting fertilizers into our sewage damaged rivers! Win win for the Brexiters!
hm, some of my food became cheaper right recently.....
but i am in the EU...
not in the UK!
There are opportunities in the market, except there was no market in the opportunities.
How some one can be proud on a trade deal that is so wrong is beyond believe, a shameless fool.
Just like us here in the UK any country we make new trade deals with will mostly be wanting imports that are cheaper than they can produce things themselves, luxury markets are very niche & only ever bring in a very limited income when it comes to products like food. There's only do much you can charge for a carrot before shipping costs make it cost prohibited. There never will be any brexit benefits for 99% of us, only added costs & lower standards.
exactly, what is needed is high end produce as suggested by a wealthy soon to be ex MP when so many in the country can't even afford the low end produce.
Farmers truely expected to get more subsidies from the Tory brexit government than the EU CAP subsidies because they were jealous that the French got more than they did😂 it was only EVER about self enrichment for them.
"Cheaper food clothes and footweyarrr - right away!" 🤣
Footweaaaaaar Straight away!
its hilarious to hear from the labour spokesperson "Britain voted to leave, ... thats happened.", considering the referendum was advisory she obviously refers to the 2 GEs after that. Both won by the Tories - a decision by the voters, right. So why have another GE ever again? 🤣🤣🤣
You do realise that if Labour even whispered they may be for rejoining they would be crucified by every media outlet in the UK? The Sovruntee brigade would be screaming blue murder!
This is so sad to see. It is a fact that Brexit is an abysmal failure, hence the answer to that simple question asked by the historian was: "No - the UK is not better off with Brexit.". There were 3 politicians from separate parties around that table, and not one of them could be open and honest with their answer.
Labour’s position on Brexit is fundamentally dishonest- ‘The vote to leave was unambiguous’! It’s the utter ambiguity of the word ‘leave’ that caused all of the problems we face today. A ‘better Brexit’ is like less serious car crash. With their massive poll lead, Labour should have the confidence to tell the truth about Brexit.
I hope labour at least try to make a go at trying to get a closer ties with Europe, but brexit has been a disaster.
People just didn't wish hard enough for the benefits to arrive.
He’s wants the US - She wants the EU … not about food.
Tories talking bs, Labour is in lala land and the penny has dropped with farmers, at least in part.
farmers have never voted labour. They are landowners, they vote Tory.
YES! Liz you are right! 👏👏
Liz, you handled yourself a whole lot better than I would have if I was debating that bellend
When Labour and the Libdems say we will not be rejoining the EU, the opposite is true. Both Parties speak with forked tongue.
I prefer a forked tongue to the lies of the tories
@@54stevemac
You obviously don't know the meaning of the word,
"forked tongue".
I truely hope so. Let’s all pray it’s because they are rightly scared of the right wing press that pushed and pushed for their brexit masters Cummings, Johnson, Farage…..
Yes, cheaper food and happy farmers, obvious that mogg, Johnson etcetera were telling everyone whatever they wanted to hear.
I always buy has much food has I can that is produced in our country
Our farmers produce good quality products and we should appreciate them more.
Once again the presenter brining up your old Lib Dem membership. I used to be a member of LD, but no longer.
Liz Truss was a Lib Dem member but she is so far removed from that now: use that to rebuff the likes of Con Burns👍
As always...three cheers for Liz.
Are farmers ever happy? I say that with tongue in cheek, but pretty much every morning I used to listen to Farming Today on BBC R4 while getting ready for work, they were moaning about something or another. We jokingly nicknamed it the whingeing farmer’s show! I do understand and agree with their frustration with government and the anger aimed at supermarkets is absolutely justified. But, as far as Brexit is concerned, so many of them voted for it that I do lose patience with them at times. However, you are a fantastic ambassador and campaigner for them, so keep up the great work you’re doing.
Conor Burns really does talk twaddle.
He’s a liar about consumer choice at the end. If we could afford it we would all eat grass fed organic meat. Many people just eat the cheapest option because that is all they can do. Hence our poor diets in the UK eating ultra processed food.
To think a politician can sit there on a tv program and just lie and lie and lie ! Why are more people not calling out there lies ?
She's only upset that she's not getting her free cash any more.
set
At 02:42, why was it not pointed out that the head of the BBC, Tim Davie, stood as a Conservative councillor for Hammersmith and Fulham ?
Conor Burns talking about purchasing power is utterly laughable. The Tories have systematically removed peoples' purchasing power so most consumers end up buying the cheapest that is in front of them beacause they need to eat.
more tory lies ffs please have an election
3 parties ignoring facts and aligned on the single market issue , hiding behind a vote made on a campaign by a known liar, is a ridiculous situation. Where are the critical thinkers in British politics??
why does this MP does NOT answer the question, just gas lighting?
Every Tory MP thinks they are ALWAYS RIGHT & THEY HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, No matter what you throw at them.
Jacob Rees-Mugg will STILL tell you TODAY that BREXIT is working just fine & Our food is cheaper today than when the Labour Party was in power!!!
Oh dear... Anneliese Dodds falling over her own shoe laces here.
Brexit means Brexit. Benefits will show up in 50+ years!?
and until then the UK will just have to grin and bear the exit costs and loss of freedoms.
And how do you prove that!!
no they wont 🤦♂🤦♂
@@dekmackie so when will the benefits show up then, in your educated opinion?
@@edwardbernthal160 they wont - there are no benefits, only downfalls
So what if she’s not a member of anything? Liz, tell that dude to mix in a few salads and some economics lessons while he’s attacking you.
There is an old expression in investigative journalism that says “follow the money.” The problem these days is that you can no longer do that so where the dark money came from and who has received it will remain secret. But dark money funded the lies and continues to do so.
1st and last word to the man. Interrupting the Farmer? Bad chairing.
They think they can change the EU rules for their benefits, well the EU won't allow cherrypicking and exceptionalisem.
Why is there currently no porridge oats available in certain supermarkets? 🤔
there is a world wide shortage of rolling pins maybe.
Not like a Tory to resort to personal ad hominem attacks is it.
Oh dear, it's difficult to have a constructve dialogue with a liar. I'm so impressed you managed to remain factual and calm with these pompous tory bonzes and biased out of touch liberals. Keep up the good work, Liz!
The tories would put Gorbles to shame
Another Brexit success story.
Tory traitors
I foresee large tracts of land being covered in solar panels
Yes... Lets pay more so that 1 % of the population can keep buying rangerovers and spanish holidays.
That’s brexit in a nutshell
Labour talking shite.
Food is my highest monthly expense after my rent. I'm lucky if I have one proper meal a day. The rest of the time I'm having crumpets and coffee in the morning and biscuits with cheese as a snack.
It did get your rulers out of having to disclose their off shore accounts as it avoided the new EU laws so job done for them
Not being a slave to Brussels is worth every penny.
Now we’re slaves to the likes of Rees-Mogg. You’ll really enjoy it when they take away our human rights.
Let's understand one thing. Brexit is a british problem. Not an EU problem.
Maybe you should try and give us the Brexit we voted for, They must think we are stupid, we have got Brexit in name only. They have not stopped trying to get us back in the eu.
Would I make more money selling my veg to my neighbour next door or to someone 1000's of miles away? 🤣🤣🤦♂🤦♂
Liz woke up, the other fellow is still asleep.
The trade deals that favour foreign importers to the detriment of British Farmers were exclusively negotiated by young Tory Trade Minister Liz Truss. Whatever happened to her?????
Don't worry Nigel will sort it out? As he ALWAYS DOES!
Who? That bloke who did a runner, tried for German nationality and hasn’t gone near any fishing port since brexit?
name one thing he has ever "sorted out"
Who owns the supermarkets where do they buy the food, also they make sure the farmers get as little as possible this is wrong. Farmers must get together and say you deal with us all or none.
Yes, farmers sure love to export....oh no wait...That would be the big compagnies. Also now we can have British bananas. Just package them.
Conor Burns - What a supercilious twerp.
Yes ! But those were political promises
4:47 the lack of access for UK meat to the Australian market, is because of quarantine for things like foot and mouth and mad cow…..we just wont let unsafe meat into Australia that could infect out herds.
farmers have one job, according to his wiki page he has three!!
I dont think you can change a lot about labeling. We have this standard in EU, if UK wants to change it, it will be a huge divergent from our rulles. Expect huge repercussion measures from EU. Not just blocking UK exports to EU, but also new problems in Northeren Ireland...
If you would do it only for non-EU food you maybe have a chance
We import food from all over....Mussels from Chile...Cheese from Spain ...Lamb from ...New Zealand.....etc etc...they dont raise alarm. Shes OTT.....
The current problem is actually simple (for once). We have a government that does not understand how the food chain works and lives in an alternate reality. One where BRexit is a good thing.
These farmers have no shame. They should be in hiding after they wrought this disaster on us all, not protesting about the very thing they voted for!
how about the bus drivers who voted leave, should they also be hiding, the librarians the doctors the candlestick makers. In every age group , in every section of the population. rich, poor, beggerman thief there were some who voted leave all go into hiding, ridiculous.
@@edwardbernthal160 if you believe bus drivers and candlestick makers had the same Brexit impact as Fishermen and Farmers, I've got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you pal. But yes, anyone who voted Brexit should be forced to bear the consequences and get back in their box.
As much as I would have wished that they not believed the lies, that side did have incredibly talented Liars selling easy solutions and dreams. If you are hurting and not trust David Cameron its a mistake I can see people making.
@@paulbo9033 don't make yourself look stupid. Don't you really understand how stupid your comment is.
@@edwardbernthal160 your comment is ridiculous
the brits agreed to push out all competition and now its them and the owner of the trade centre that have to keep prices low , the rent of the trade centre is about seven times the turnover annual , and its owned by a offshore trustfund
Once again Annalise Dodds for Labour can only resort to waffle (unfortunately not the Belgian type). Like the Tories haven’t a clue let alone a plan with regards Brexit. They haven’t a plan because there’s no substitute. Yet here they are pandering to the Gammon right and little Englanders. It’s just insane politics. Just one of the reasons why Scottish independence is so important. For those who say Scotland couldn’t or wouldn’t be able to manage being independent. They are as wrong as they were thinking Brexit would work
Farmers need to lead the way back into the single market, stop sitting on the fence (excuse the pun) and use the right words to hold all those responsible for Brexit!!!!!!!!!
