- Former prime minister Rishi Sunak accused the government of "fiddling the figures" and of "not being straight with the British people".
Delivering the Conservative Party's formal response to Labour's budget, it was Mr Sunak's last act as interim leader of the Conservatives.
"Time and again we Conservatives warned that Labour would tax, borrow and spend far beyond what they were telling the country, and time and again they denied they had such plans," he said.
"But today, the truth has come out."

Rishi finally cares, because it's him that will be hit with higher taxes 😂
😂😂😂
Exactly 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Yes, he cared but the racist nation didn't
😂😂😂😂😂
Shame is took so long for Rishi to deliver his best speech ever
Watch the debate and see how his race deafened us from all truth he tried to tell us😢. now our own colour and race is tearing us apart!!!
Now he hasn’t the responsibility 😡
No!
He was saying all along but people were more interested in his colour and the money he had made through his own intelligence and hardwork!!!!
Go away!
He's speaking with emotion because he's gonna get hammered by the tax changes 🤣
Labour plan .
Step 1 : tax the rich , oh no they left the country ,
back-up plan : tax all working people and print money
It doesn't matter if the rich leave they already send their money off shore. Let them go live in their beloved Caymen Islands that they claim already to be in.
Fair play Rishi that was a really good speech/reaponse
Alot of Tory waffle as usual too
@@DarkCreed it was pretty direct, ur just waffling urself
@@user3838-c7f ironic considering he made a very concise response.
@@DarkCreedLiebour waffles
@@DarkCreed Your post is literally spam.
Sunak should stay as leader of the opposition
Keir Stalin was laughing at the poorest pensioners part, what a disgrace.
Stalin is the reason we're not speaking German.
@@Catholic2024 Soviet Blood of working normal people in the Soviet Union are one of the many reasons that we're not speaking German, although more indirect. The evil red dictator is not.
MORE of sneering laugh
@wiseget north korea
he stops their heat money and laughs
Omg they are laughing at britsh people LITERALLY
They are actually praising the most ambitious budget
so are most of the world
Not being funny or awkward Carol,but,everybody in that building is laughing at us British ppl
There only laughing at the cheek with what Sunak said as he’s responsible for the state of the country
@paulchadwick9419 yep. I would do the same. Rather than getting annoy with the rubbish. Juat laughing at it.
Labour it’s self is a laughing stock
Absolutely REPUGNANT that Starmer is LAUGHING. He is beyond despicable.
He is laughing because he doesn't agree with the 'facts' Rishi is selling.
@@jabthejedi why the scare quote? read the obr report, he didn't make it up
Well done Sunak. That was a brilliant speech. Someone should remain as the head of Conservative.
😂
its true, shame he didnt have more time.
Own up, who voted for labour
I did and l am glad l did.
The socialist did
I did - and they've kept their promises with the budget.
I did I wish I hadn't I am going to scream now
All the people with their hands out ready for free money.
Why is stammer and reeves laughing. Its not funny
Laughing at the audacity of rishi.
There's always someone
'why are they laughing'
It's at RIshi who did nothing during his time as PM.
@@samuelmelton8353 the absolute hypocrisy of him is hilarious, the irony of that man to claim that he’s standing up for the very people he and his party exploited for 15 years is completely ludicrous - as are the people who don’t realise it.
@@rhysinnit Anyone who thinks Sunak is good has had their brain ironed
@@samuelmelton8353 more than that.
Why is Starmer laughing? There is nothing funny about the pensioners fiasco.
Brilliant speech 👍
Huw should be reporting on this fiddling
LMAO
Thats tickled me 😂😂
KEIR OUT
For what?
@ 😂😂😂😂
Great statement from
Mr. Sunak
Same old Labour. No one is surprised.
More than 14 years old?
The leader of the UK is laughing while being called out on his lies!! Hes laughing at us!
Yey Rishi 🎉👏🏻 well said 👏🏻
Sunak should never called an election is a far better leader with charisma than what we have now !
If he delayed the election he would of won it the economy was growing slowly and inflation was coming down
labour and tories are part of the same clique; he called the election early to ward off their common enemy; Nigel Farage. It was pretty effective because they caught him off guard.
He had to at some point within the next few months. Wouldn't have made a difference, they would have lost the election whenever they held it.
He had no choice. There legally had to be one before January 2025 and he'd lost the confidence of his party so it was either call an election or get voted out of party leadership.
What bloody Charisma does Sunak have?
Starmer sits there laughing about the poorest pensioner's. Says it all .
Tories in need of more gold watches are they?
Starmer laughing at the audacity of a man who has never once thought about the people he is now trying to stand up for. Keep in mind rishi made millions off the back of the 2008 financial crash, while the rest of us peasants struggled. Really says it all.
@@klitschkos-usb-sticklook i get aall they care about is the rich people but i suppose they appeal to someone? Also whats with all the hate on rich people who clearly worked hard somewhere down the line?
Yes indeed a lot of fiddling about on all levels.
bet theres alot of fiddlers in that room
Sick of labour blaming previous government- we need to get them out quick - really don’t think I hated a new government so much in short space of time
Well who s to blame for the staight of the country the tories were in power so the blame lays at their door
@@GrahamFearnleylabour - with what they left tories to clear up. Gordon Brown sold uks gold at record low levels in early 2000s - made billions on 3G licensing and they wasted the lot. Starmar is no Blair, he’s a lefty lawyer.
Well who destroyed the country then? Your grandma?
Oh my god ! 🔥🔥 That Speak is on fire!
And collectively as a Nation, we continue to accept our financial security being fiddled with by the scheming politicians. The United Kingdom is a disgrace.
Like him or hate him, this is possible the best speech he’s ever done in a long time. I’m surprised his face didn’t turn red, so angry whilst speaking!
Labours Plan :
step 1 : open the gates of hell ,
step 2 : print money and increase inflation ,
step 3 : tax working class people ,
step 4 : increase council tax above max ,
step 5 : Green everyone , will be a cold winter .
So what was the plan for the last 14 years?
The money printing happened under conservatives. No taxes have increased for working people.
@DarkCreed who ever posted that is just a bot. This feed is full of them.
🤡
@@DarkCreedexactly nothing 😂😂😂😂
One Term Kier, when told he’s punishing pensioners, laughed. Absolutely disgusting.
The poorest pensioners have received an increase above inflation on their pension AND still get the winter fuel allowance. The laugh is at how dumb it is for him to say that.
He was clearly laughing at the previous part about handouts for trade unions, fool.
Your just as dumb as Sunak as that’s not what he was laughing at , trying and get it right please 🫏
Starmer sits laughing at Rishi I know who I would believe It’s Rishi I voted Tory as always Now just look at what’s happening 😡😡😡😡😡😡
How would it benefit the government to tax people for no good reason?
What, tax the rich so we can use their money to fix the mess they caused?
ALL WORKING PEOPLE'S TAXES UP. BUT NO TAXES ON HIS GOLDEN PENSION THAT IS PROTECTED BY A LAW HE CREATED AND GOT PASSED FOR HIMSELF.
Can we have sunak back,.just for a little bit
the country is in a mess am sure we knew this was coming.
We'll see they also put Wages up so thats why they are sitting there not looking worried.
We'll see as time passes whether their policies are felt negatively by the people
There are many layers of Governance, and we have seen now
The new tax rate, the new standard wage, and the prisons, and what is next we will find out.
We have seen some meetings with Ukraine, we have seen some meetings with Aukus,
but we haven't seen a strong stance projecting outwards onto the world.
They can raise the min wage all they want, it's not them paying it!, a company will only recruit staff by what they can afford, raise Ni for employers will only ever affect the workers.
Wages up? Inflation coming then oh dear and job losses,go after why people need higher wages? They caused that problem too
@@markhitchcock4704 yeah but the under 30s will not know how they will just see it as a benefit, i worked 10 years ago for 6.50 an hour on a zero hour contract, so on paper it sounds huge. I came out from 5 days work back then with like 120 pound, 10 year ago.
and when i went self employed i charged 15.
Now 15 is too little i was inexperienced.
Millionaires in their designer gear smirking and laughing whilst talking about people on minimum wage , this nonsense is an embarrassment to the uk .
The International Markets seem to have accepted the increased borrowing from the Reeves Budget, which is more than can be said for the Truss fiasco of a few years ago. Perhaps we should see what will be the outcome before making judgment, though I suspect that some small businesses may be hit as well as us poorer pensioners on the old rate.
Rishi was brilliant today. Why was he not like this before?
The last "order" sounded more like "Sunak go easy, his bounty is big enough as it is"
Sunak is very good as an opposition leader
Known liar's are known to tell lies.
We were warned: "IT'S IN THEIR DNA!!". How prescient that was 😡😡
That's right it was Penny who said that before the general election. How right she was.
0:01 the exact point I lost interest, surprised I make it that far
Tax the real wealth creators (businesses) and give it to the useless eaters.
really? is it not the same useless eaters that spend money at said businesses, thereby creating the wealth of said businesses?
Good this what we want! Strong, impassioned, patriotic and incisive unlike Labour's hollow rhetoric.
I can not believe ....THAT TWO FACED STARMER IS SAT THEIR LAUGHING at the hardship he and his Party are inflecting on the British people ...HOW CAN WE AS A PEOPLE RID OURSELVES OF THIS MAN .
He’s laughing at the blatant irony that the man speaking oversaw a decrease in living standards for the first time in history.
@@user-pp9yk3tu4z Stepho seems like a basic simpleton.
Well everyone wanted change and here it is 😊
Let me guess, the triple lock that I pay for goes into your pocket?
Talk about an ill informed comment
Not a word on immigration - shows where Labours priorities lies. More voters arriving on the boats.
The fact that Labour are laughing at the pensioner's is wrong.
Berk. He was clearly laughing at the previous part about handouts for trade unions.
Good rish sunak well said 👏 👍
Very disappointed,we are pensioners that they were laughing at and now on top of everything else we won't be able to afford our private jet!
These clowns are in charge of the country
Its all a joke and a game to them when its our lives on the line. Im done with all these liars
Pretty rich of Sunak to call anyone on fiddling numbers . How exactly did he make his fortune again???
By marrying Infosys’s daughter is one of the ways he chose😅
His wife is daughter of Indian billionaire
I’m glad Stoma thinks it’s very funny
It’s a great budget well done labour
Bit rich for sunak to be talking about broken promises and fiddling figures😂
But he had 2 talk the truth;

@@garethjones909 The fact is it's the tax payer who picks up the bill;used 2 do overtime the tax man just loved that I can tell u;
rishi let them have it ( both barrels ) rishi at his BEST EVER !!!
Rishi is a clown.
@@NTL578Starmer is the biggest clown or does that hurt your little feelings little boy?
Pity he did fa as pm
Off Rishi Sunak In parliament uk london
They are laughing at the people
This budget is a slap for those who thought Labour Party will do some good.
he is so happy he is getting the fk out of politics, my man is hyped up
NI up! cgt up! IHT up! energy taxes up! business rates up! 1st time buyer stamp duty up! pensions tax up!
How is the tax for 'first time buyer relief' stamp duty up? SDLT surcharges on additional property purchases is up from 3% to 5%.
Starmer promised no Surprises in Tax 😂😂😂😂😂😂!
What surprise?
@@rezwhap To be fair, I will give it to him that it was surprising..
Surprising how labour managed to completely avoid taxes on the poor; I was totally prepared for them to tax the fuel but it seems they've worked out a way to make mostly the rich pay for the defacits
bring back Sunak
Wtf was the brits thinking voting this labour party in 😂
Rich politicians playing games with us ....
They spent more time pointing the finger than getting to the point
Tax tax tax tax tax tax tax, the only growing business in the UK.
They should have sorted out council tax bands.
Honestly I’m so used to this I’m not bothered but he’s gonna end up like Lizz truss innit not trusted by the people
Sunak seems to have more confidence when he doesn't have to answer for his actions
1:15 Starmer laughing at poorest pensioners, what a w⚓️
Did he even listen to the budget speech? 😂
Where did the £22billion go?
Great budget . Well done Rachel Reeves. Tax are not rising for working people, they are rising for big buisnesses; energy firms , people who fly private jets, non doms being banned and those big energy firms who are making billions in profits whilst our energy bills go up. It is a bold radical policy shifting the burden to people with broader shoulder to pay for the years of under investment in our nhs schools and public services . The austerity and the 22 billion pound black hole she inherited from the tories. It is great what she did . Best budget in a long time. We got no growth under the tories austerity plan and this labour government is being bold and responsible. Bringing in 40billion in tax to pay for our public services . They are not raising income tax VAT or national insurance for working people ,so they are 100% keeping there promises. And she is increasing minium wage for people. A working people's budget thats what todays budget is . No wonder tories hate it with hedge fund and side buisnesses they have asking them to pay more including people with second homes and investment and shares through increasing capital gains tax. Amazing and the right budget. Winner is the nhs getting billions and working people. Lovers from this budget are big profiteering buisness ; non doms, private schools, private jets flyers.
"Tax rising not for working people" - is this sarcasm? According to today's OBR report: "the indirect effect of the NICs measure (£25B) is to *lower real wages* and employment"...
Well said.
Well said. Good stuff. Spot on 👍👍👍
Who now can’t afford to give their staff pay rises that will match inflation and the cost of living, so not really a win!
Minimum wage will go up so people will have more money to spend and the econmy will grow. By the way she has banned non doms so there's more money coming in . Can't believe people can't see the positive of this budget. Money has to come from somewhere to pay for public services. No more austerity. It's a failed project. Under investment has achieved nothing in the last 14 years
Starmer is a traitor. The most hated man in Britain.
Keir is laughing at Rishi because he’s spitting out lies only because he has to pay double tax that’s why 😂😂😂😂😂
Why can’t government leave? Find someone else to be government
Just quit my job enough is enough
why your wages just want up
@@xcxbxuudts543dkhnot in real terms. The minimum wage increase doesn't outstrip inflation and it causes fiscal drag meaning more will have to pay income tax.
Pay rise my arse
@@xcxbxuudts543dkh your wages may have gone up, not mine, using from the money from my pocket. Spoken like a true Labour voter “I am getting free money from someone else”.
For once I agree with sunak
Well, he would, wouldn't he? I listened to the budget speech while he was fiddling with something on his lap. I don't think he and I heard the same speech.
I don't like this labour government one bit . But wee rishy is just mad he can't give his friends the money
Labour were voted in to save our NHS.
@colinsmith1288 and they are going to sell it
@jasonlightbody5356 The NHS is already in private hands. But if they get the waiting backlog reduced then labour will get my continued support.
Rishi just ripped Kier apart. He know the economics and this is disastrous for the UK.
He just made a speech that souless Starmer could only dream of making. Well done Rishi.
I think sunak not happy he and his wife are paying more taxes..
Get real 😂
@@A.H-j2owhat’s up truth hurts
😂 Sunaks getting an increase on using his PJ.
His wife won’t be paying more taxes, her money is earned in India, therefore the tax is paid in India.
@@paulchadwick9419 what?? 😂
Blinding speech by the former PM. Keir Starmer sat there laughing his head off the arrogant p***k.
The irony of this guy trying to hold the government to account after the spanking Starmer just delivered him over the summer is brilliant
Everything he said in his rebuttal is correct.
What have the British people done to themselves.
She has the nerve to sit there looking flummoxed. She’s a thief.
Thank god the Tories and Sunak are no longer in power. What a waste of 14 years it has been...
Who bloody voted for Labour
Starmar got a rude awakening
All a set of hypocrites and liars ...
From the lying clown who led the Party that claimed that tax cuts were possible despite the sobering measured assessment of the IFS!!
Labourinvented black hole and now this sausage.......
OBR have confirmed the black hole stop listening to Sunaks BS
So it's just more of the same i mean it's not like we haven't been robbed for year's anyway
Labour fiddle things,never,they have never lied, never.
Labour are for the working person.
NONE DOMES HE DOESN'T LIKE IT ,PAY YOUR TAXES
Who made such a big Tory mess. Your are both there.
BOATERS BILL TO HOTELS UP 😀😀
Damn,
I miss Rishi so much.
The Tories are reaching here. I was impressed with the Budget, finally have some intelligent and responsible people in the room running the country. The UK can turn things around under Labour.
