"In alphabetical order of the second letter of their name."
Wait, what?
No he's not, he's said in other videos that he supports the Greens mainly, but his second choice is Labour
I know but he did order the big parties in alphabetical order of the second letter.
LAbour
LIberal Democrats
UKIP
COnservative
I had to rewind lol
@BadNew Nah he's just a little ridiculous to make us smile
Labour and Liberal both begin with a L

I saw this comment just as he said that in the video. It was a religious experience

I got so drunk I voted for Boris
This reminds me how in 1992, on Russia's first democratic elections since the tzar, my granddad brought my 5-year-old sister to the booth and let her pick whoever she fancied.
@@HelmutNevermore 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️+++
That's almost as dumb as voting for Boris!
@@ovilersmith5006 Come on, it wasn't dumb, it was badass.
Maybe she did vote for Boris (a different one), history hasn't preserved any information about that.
"All your candidates except for one or two nut jobs belong to a political party" *cough cough* Tom Scott...
You mean Mad Cap'n Tom? I really stand behind his intention to drop taxes on rum.
Swordsmanship and Gunnery should be an integral part of our Children's education!
A canon pointed at the vice chancellors house? (chancellor of the excheque?)
tom scott is not a nutjob, he was the only good candiate in the whole 2015 election
Donald trump and Hillary Clinton. Oh wait...
45% Conservative, 46% Labour and 45% LibDem. Well that really helped narrow it down -_-
labour edged out, didnt they?
That adds up to more than 100% - how do you work that out?
Inkyminkyzizwoz I guess he agrees at a certain percentage with each party. It seems, that he agrees with labour the most.
You know now what you must do: Vote for the unaffiliated whackjobs.

While in this case it's edited in, running macOS on a regular PC is possible. /r/hackintosh and tonymacx86 are good places to start.
Yamzeh Still... why? MacOS is great if you have a mac. If not just use linux. It just triggers me.
Guy On A Computer Some people might prefer macOS but either can't afford a Mac or want to build their own so that they get better value for their money.
Great video. Seriously this or something like it should be compulsory viewing for every UK citizen at the age of 18.
Geoff Bland yes then we wont have those fucking tory twats in power. fucking wish that nutcase who attacked Westminster went in and slaughtered all the tories and then bathed in the blood and sell their hearts to restraunts.
Considering the 18-24 demographic is made up of mostly Labour voters, i don't think this video would help your wishes.
Tom McGlone Clearly economics was never your forte.
Neither was anthropology.
Or common sense.
All the People in Scotland and Northern Ireland will get so drunk they won't know who they're voting for
@@tommcglone2867 Just listen to your self, this is why labour are never in power, wishing for terrorists to kill people, glad most people have the common sense to not support your radical corbinist party
"Did you know it's not the media's job to tell the truth?"
Well, it should be!
Sadly telling the truth isn't as profitable.
MCOD1999 Much better for the public though!
Inkyminkyzizwoz But whom in the public would believe the truth if it were told at this point? It's Fake News to someone now.
It actually shouldnt be (in the sense in which its being used) Hes talking about opinion. Opinion is a powerful and lucrative business that employs thousands and needs to be competitive. Whats true is that media can refrain to tell the truth but not actually lie.(Defamation Act) Therefore, it is the medias job to not pervert stats while being able choose which stats to show to convince. It is then the consumers job to read between the lines and digest whats being shown
Any enforcement of that would be really shady.
I'm watching loads of your videos and this one (along with a few others) felt familiar. Then I realised we were shown it in year 8 for our mock election.

Wow. Thank you. I really didn’t get it
Yeeeah, I remember that, it was in the video! Ahaha, that was a great bit in the video, thank you for reminding us of the contents of the video. You reminding us of the thing in the video really made the thing (that was in the video) so much more betterer!

Hey there's no bias there, it's 100% accurate I speak goose.
As an American, I like reading about UK politics. They are a clusterfuck just like in my country, but because I usually don't have to deal with the fallout, its much more entertaining. The only problem is for a while I thought the Conservative Party, the Tories, and UKIP were the same party for a while.
Adam Sherman Conservative = Tories
UKIP is something entirely different though
Thanks. Is it confusing having more than two (sometimes three if you're lucky) parties sometimes?
Adam Sherman
Nah, I live in Germany, where we have a lot of parties (Christian Democrats, Bavarian Christian Democrats, Social Democrats, Greens, The Left Party, Liberals, Eurosceptics), but it's still not too hard to follow it all, it's actually quite interesting. And the Germans actually have a fair and democratic voting system!
Adam Sherman The US has far more then 2, its just the main two parties are SO RICH they usually pay all the other parties away by the end of the election Mr. American.
Adam Sherman Although, UKIP is made up mostly of ex conservative part members. Such as Neil Hamilton, Nigel Farage, Douglas Carswell...
Revs the computer up
Says Microsoft windows
We see later on that its a Mac.
Ok
It was booting up Windows 3.1 then showing twenty year-old versions of every website. I'm fairly sure this is known in the business as a joke... ;)
Not to mention the famous Canyon midi file playing in the background, also from that era.
Maybe it’s a hackintosh
From what I can see, the computer isnt even on, he adds the "screen" on when he is editing.
Magic
1:38 Jay Foreman predicted Untitled Goose in 2015
Canyon.MIDI
Man, that took me straight back to 1996...
Holy shit that music at 1:50 takes me right back to my childhood.
CANYON.MID
hello car man
What's the name of the song?
The look of the websites take me back to my childhood 😭😂
This video is littered with nostalgia, 0:12 is from Bromwell High I think
I get so drunk, I don't know what video I'm watching...
i got so drunk i threw up all over my ballot paper then pissed in the ballot box
I think that counts as a spoilt ballot.
@@onionbot2 It just depends where the lumpy bits of sick land
That bacon sandwich thing with Miliband really was clutching at straws. Seriously, whatever you might think of him, if you're going to try and discredit him at least do so with something that's actually relevant!
But it was fun to laugh at him.
The truly sad thing is some people actually vote based on that kind of tat.
@@HolyKhaaaaan Not quite as sad as people voting based on outright and obvious lies - such as £350M a week extra for the NHS on the side of a bus.
Great advice, great video editing, great comedy. I wish this channel was bigger!
Jay Foreman for Prime Minister
He'll never get in. He supports the Green Party.
oh god not the greens!
Same
"I get so drunk I don't know who I'm voting for."
Me.
"I just put a big cross next to David Horton to make absolutely sure I'm not voting for him" or something to that effect.
Thank you, Vicar of Dibley.
Although I'm from Germany, I enjoy watching your videos on politics & Unfinished London. You're a great educator and entertainer.
I guess you could become quite successfull if you'd release videos more frequently - but I'm thankful for what I got / get now :)
Relevant again
Hong Konger here. It's nice that you can what you chose. We can't even elect all members of the legislative council.
perhaps you would like rejoin britain? Then you could decide
Fuck China can we just get NATO on this and take Hong Kong, I mean is it really that big of a deal? Like it won't get past the UN but honestly China is undemocratic and no-one likes them, just don't invite them to the meeting or whatever and sneak a few thousand soldiers in, say china you can't come in this is Britain again, liberate hong kong.
I think most Hong Kongers sincerely wish that it was that simple, but alas, it ain't.
Unfortunately it never is
Then move out or stop complaining. The only reason Hong Kong exists is from Britain drawing it up and ruling for 150 years. Without Britain, you'd have no "Hong Kongese" nationality.
2:39 When the result of his political affiliation test popped up I nearly died of laughter
It's either "Who should I vote for?", or "For whom should I vote?"
The title's also correct, just a weird mix for some people's tastes
Don't buy The Sun
3:29 Hey, I don’t passive consume the Onion News, I use it wisely.
I regularly read “the goose” at home.
Only source of real news, if you ask me. Geese know where its at
2:11 I hope he cleaned that up afterwards
As soon as that take was over, we all scrambled around and picked up every single piece.
@@JayForeman One 0f the things people like you for is that you still reply to comments on your old videos. Please continue doing so! By the way, there are a couple of comments from eons ago that literally express the concern of the papers picked up by you post the video shooting.
@@pulkitmohta8964 I'd hate to burst your bubble, but the real reason he's still responding to old comments is because TH-cam Studio always shows the newest comments, regardless of the video's age. Replies aren't shown though, hence why he often doesn't respond to those.
Although I'm not necessarily from the UK, I am from a democratic country. I have no idea about the parties that are present in my country, particularly because I've spent most of my life in different countries. Now I'm of eligible age to vote and I'm going to start working in my homeland.
Just wanted to say that these are some great videos and is helping me figure out my country's diplomatic parties.
I have every idea of the parties in my country! All two of them. There are Democrats; mostly centrist, neo liberal, corrupt status qou elites. And Republicans; mostly completely insane, racist, sexist, far right conservitives, who are basically Nazis. And you wonder why most people don’t even care to vote.
@@elijahfordsidioticvarietys8770 Dude, the Nazis were socialists, literally the furthest thing from Republicans
@@joshuajinkins9939 LOL. Imagine unironically thinking that the Nazis were socialists. 😂🤣
You called Tom a nut-job?! HOW DARE YOU?! Just because Mad Cap'n Tom didn't represent a political party doesn't mean he's a nut-job!
Making the lawnmower noise with your mouth instead of just editing one in was very charming
I regret that to this day. It was a placeholder that was always meant to be swapped with a proper lawnmower noise, but I genuinely forgot! 🤦🏻♂️
@@JayForemanmakes it even better
That Bertha theme song at 0:52... classic!
It brought me way back!
All these years of irrelevant TH-cam suggestions and this one pops up on election day, fair play
I'm voting on the One syllable out-of-sync Party
"I get so drunk I don't know who I'm voting for" lol have to try that one day
I love the use of 'Big Sky' by the Kinks in the background at around 3 minutes or so.
This channel is fantastic. Jay, you are informative, succinct, and hilarious. A much needed source of Britishness on my feed. thank you!
I'm Australian so this doesn't directly apply but a good watch nonetheless
You guys have a voting system that doesn't suck balls.
I envy you lot.
I wonder what a ball sucking voting system looks like. I don't think it is suitable for you tube.
Ronald de Rooij Not literally....
Informing yourself about candidates' policies and avoiding biased media hype doesn't apply to you because you're Australian...?
✅
"The media is a business". Thanks you, IU have been trying to tell people around me this for years.
"I get so drunk I don't know who I'm voting for"
That is absolutely the right way to vote
Anyone else recommended because of general election on the 12th?
As an American I must say after binging your politics unboringed series I know more about the United Kingdom’s voting system, and general politics than my own
As a non British person who isn’t old enough to vote where I live, this video is very important, thank you.
I'm both feeling more informed and crying with laughter - Jay Foreman - I salute you!
When I clicked on this video I thought “I’m not gonna watch it. I just want to quickly come in to say nice use of whom...” But the very first sentence had me hooked. Bloody hilarious that was. The big jokes as well as the subtle ones, like the computer booting old Windows style, but once up is OS X Snow Leopard
I learned that onions passively consume media.
it’s a lie
It's the layers
I just got to say that I absolutely love your videos! They are always informative and educational while still being incredibly original and funny. I mean I, a German dude, am watching your whole series about UK politics just for the fun of it.
Absolutely awesome.
You know you're a true american when all those party logos look like fast food logos
I've forgotten what 6 years ago was like for websites so I don't know if this is exaggerated or whether websites actually looked like that and I forgot
These websites are from 1996. They are, as far as I know, each party’s very earliest website.
Brilliant presentation and comedy. You have put your views in an easy to understand and engaging manner.
You mean “For whom should I vote?”
I know your comment's a year old, but since I have already copied this link:

*Sees correct use of 'whom'*
*Smiles with approval*
Yes, but he ended with a preposition, which is technically frowned upon by English grammarians. "For whom should I vote?" would have been a better way to phrase this title.
Yeaaa shoutout to bri*ish people!
This is actually really good advice no matter what country your from. Especially getting hammered!
it would be great to see a refreshed who to vote for video. love your style
I vote for the same party as my parents or they’ll yell at me. That is literally every Irish election ever

Edit: I don't know why I asked! I found it, and I'm beginning to think that, as WhyTheHeckNot suggested, that it actually means "Don't consume media sites, like The Onion"! Hahhahahaha!
the onion is a parody news thing lol
lol saying the media doesn't have to tell the truth right in front of the guardian... even more accurate in 2021
Brilliant. I'm sure we'll see you on TV soon. Influencing our decisions... this looks like one of those vicious circles.
loool at 2:56 he highlights the candidate for CISTA
To be fair to IDS, there were 11 years between those two votes. A lot of people's options on same-sex relationships have changed in that time.
Or is it, "for whom should I vote?"
Very good. Thank you.
Good, funny and informative :) I already know a fair bit about each party and have made up my mind based on the facts and current manifestos but I know SO many people who could do with not reading the daily fail and watching this! Shall be sharing :)
"Did you know it's not the media's job to tell the truth?"

Yes I was waiting to see if anyone noticed.
I don’t live even slightly close to the UK, why am I binging this series.
What about just vote for the Monster Raving Loony Party
Please please please expand this style of series into an entire educational channel... I want more. Moooore I tell you!
How can this be so good and so underrated?
Lol after JelloApocalypse's apocalyptic "vote" video, this seems like a breath of fresh air.
Love the pat mustard music
That’s what I associate that music with too!!
You guys are bloody brilliant
Aw, thanks!

Excellent, merci
In Germany the Government provides a Voting Quiz thingy to help you decide what to vote on
Let’s face its probably biased to whatever parties in charge at the time
@@callummurrayofficialyoutub1369 why not try
Instead of judging
I'm not a German, but I must admit that this sounds useful!
youtube while the general election is nearing: *throws this at me in my recommended* WATCH IT
me: *gets hit by video* AHH OK but im 15 so why
My country is on the verge of 2019-votings and this video from the 2015 shows up, TH-cam algorithm is getting scary but I love the presentation of your video
I've really been enjoying your videos on here, Jay, but I really owe you a coffee after you snuck the 'Bertha' theme into this video! I watched that when I was little!
If you can't read a 30 page document, you have to ask yourself why exactly should you be voting??
Honestly at this point, I think the drunk lady has the right idea
Why are your videos so good?? :D
The music at 1:10 was theme to the clip show Tarrant on TV, the contestant intro background music on the early 2000s British game show Dog eat Dog, and it was the walk-on song for a wrestler who's name I've forgotten.
I associate that music with Pat Mustard from Father Ted.
THANK YOU!
Been trying to track down that, er, track for years. Jay amazing videos. Thank you both
