You are absolutely wrong. The pound was already fucked, the Queen already sick and the Tories betrayed their own electorate long before Truss became PM. She just took the blame for everything.
Correct, it is funny, just a pity that we are the victims, she get's a £19'000 hand out on leaving office and now get's to be an "ex PM" which entitles her to £115'000 of our money a year for he expenses as an ex PM, it's like it's the job they all want for the perks although there will be some over supply soon of ex PM's for after dinner speeches.
I've long stopped laughing when I listen to JP. I, now, find myself simply agreeing with every thing he says. He is a breath of fresh air in this era of political madness.......
Jonathan - you showed more compassion and sympathy towards Liz in those few minutes, than she did to the population in % weeks !! well done for holding back

I only wish he'd stick it to the left a bit more. Starmer will get in, if there's a GE anytime soon. Not because he's any good or offers any decent policies, but simply because the tories are imploding and gifting him the win. So we'll go from a shite consocialist party to a full on lunatic level socialist party running the show!. What could possibly go wrong there! 🤪
He summed up perfectly the inept premiership of Liz Truss in less than four minutes far better than the BBC, ITV, Sky, GB News or Talk TV could sum up in a one hour programme. Brilliant monologue from JP. Just brilliant!
Honestly one can sum up Liz Truss in about a minute because all she did was incompetently smash the financial system with a rogue mini-budget and play musical chairs with cabinet positions. And the requisite "she smiles like an idiot and never has anything intelligent to say."
I remember the first time I saw Jon Pie. I honestly thought he was a reporter on a hot mic, instead of as a comedian. I agreed with everything he said then and have done so ever since.
Dear Mr. Pie, thank you for putting a smile on my old lined face, being Scottish I am neither culturally nor through hereditary much able to make that facial gesture so it always comes as a surprise when my wife asks what I’ve got to be happy about. Best Regards
3:16 - The best line of the whole 3 minutes and 52 seconds, delivered perfectly here - "She swoops in, kills the queen, crashes the market and then f**ks off" - perfect!

Keir Starmer has accepted more free tickets to events such as sports matches, concerts and parties than the combined total of every other Labour leader since records began in 1997, openDemocracy analysis has found. While the Labour leader spent his first year and a half in the role under lockdown, he has quickly made up for it, accepting gifts from donors including multi-millionaires, gambling giants, the online shopping app GETIR and the construction giant Mulalley & Co on 28 separate occasions. The gifts include days at the races, hospitality at Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur matches, an Adele gig, and two separate Coldplay concerts. In total, they are worth nearly £30,000. In his five years as Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn only accepted one such freebie: tickets to Glastonbury, where he spoke on the pyramid stage in 2017. Former Corbyn adviser Andrew Fisher told openDemocracy the Islington North MP had made a point of turning down corporate hospitality. “Politicians at any level shouldn’t be beholden to corporate interests,” he said. “They’re elected to represent the people, and are well paid for it.
That even the boldest dare suggest Boris Johnson as a sensible successor to Liz Truss shows the entire grandiose scale of the incompetence suffered in a couple dozen days.
I imagine that after the queen invited Liz Truss to form a government, she rolled eyes and said "I'm getting too old this shit" and then died a few days later.

Let's look at the last 3 PMs: Theresa May Boris Johnson Liz Truss. Surely, even the Tories have to admit that they clearly have no-one in their party capable of running a school tuck shop, let alone a country?
@@cthutu Sure, I would, but some Tories would try (wrongly) to claim he was a success. They wouldn't dare try it with those three (unless they think PMs should be able to break the laws they make, I guess).
how long will you let it fall towards the bottom? remember, ordinary citizens have in the past, rebuilt their own governments from the ground up. take a lesson from the French: Eat the Rich.
It's wonderful to see someone with the wit and intellect to verbalise what many have been thinking for weeks, nay . . months Bravo Mr Pie with knobs on 👍🏴👍🏴👍🏴👍🇬🇧
Thank you Mr P, just thank you, from someone who is losing hope for the future. At least you can voice what a lot of us are thinking, even if under the guise of a character, you do it so well 🌹
i laughed and laughed at this Liz Truss truism at the time, but as we have just had the festival of lies and dog whistles in Manchester (as Pie puts it) I had to listen to this again, because it is pure catharsis
may said the quiet part out loud when she tried to one up labour by claiming 'we are the party that's had 3 female prime ministers' ... truss was literally only put in place for that soundbite... what may 'forgot' to add, was that all three of those prime ministers were removed from office in disgrace.
Truss’s premiership was like a 20-year-old supply teacher in a rough comprehensive literally s*itting themselves in the middle of a GCSE geography lesson and then attempting to continue with the class 😂
So true about an actual competent person. When the Tories got power in 2010 there was a noticeable drop in competence and professionalism compared to the Labour days (remember when calling a random (bigotted) person a bigot killed your career?). But even Cameron was way up on what we have seen over the last 6 years. May had some integrity, even if 'Brexit means Brexit' was just about the most ridiculous and meaningless catchphrase ever, but the gov decesended into chaos then. Now we have Sunak, who is likely to bring back competence, people are so relieved to have someone who knows which way is up and at least have the decency to keep his mouthshut rather than deny facts, that, for now, policies don't even matter!
My honest viewpoint all politics these days is way to ideological and because of that becomes impossible to be useful to the masses. The party system is broken and this is obvious in almost every country, it needs to become about individuals representing their electorate and working together not singing a party tune.

@@cthutu Sure, I would, but some Tories would try (wrongly) to claim he was a success. They wouldn't dare try it with those three (unless they think PMs should be able to break the laws they make, I guess).
Pie is always there when we need him.
Wondering if he could be cloned?
Asking for a daughter nation under duress...
When I read the news I said out loud: “Can't wait for Jonathan Pie's take on this.“
How is there only one British guy this good on British political comedy?
I've been waiting for Mr Pie to vent his spleen and he didn't let me down,spot on sir👏👏
I have been looking forward to your ability to accurately describe this mess.
You didn't disappoint.
Utterly brilliant and as usual speaks what we are all thinking! JP for prime minister! 😉
Truss was so bad that the Immortal Queen immediately Logged out after seeing her.
Shitting herself in the middle of a GCE geography lesson…we’ve all been there brother
😳All of you?
Thank goodness I opted for science.
YES.!!!....but not on the world stage...and sh*****g on the general publica!!
Astonishing, how much deeper there is to go past rock bottom. The journey continues.
The UK will set that record for sure in this world. They have aspiration.
Here in the U.S. we've ALMOST learned to stop asking that question...
how long will you let it fall towards the bottom? remember, ordinary citizens have in the past, rebuilt their own governments from the ground up. take a lesson from the French: Eat the Rich.
This needs to be played on permanent loop in Parliment and Number 10 until they get the message!!
I've been expecting this the moment she resigned and as always you're right as ever
It's wonderful to see someone with the wit and intellect to verbalise what
many have been thinking for weeks, nay . . months
Bravo Mr Pie with knobs on 👍🏴👍🏴👍🏴👍🇬🇧
Mother of Christ! 😂😂 Remind me to never get on his bad side. Scathing; yet all true.
Absolutely awesome, the contempt is palpable!!
Even with serving such a short period of time as PM, she is entitled to £115k of tax payers money. 💭🤔🙈🙈🙈
Don’t hold back Jonathan. Tell us what you really think 😂
😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
The smile on my face can't get any wider.
Your finest work to date Sir. Please, never stop! “Vapid flap of skin 😂😂😂”
The fact that this is shot in the pissing rain is perfect.
I'm reminded of Tom Lehrer saying 'When Kissinger won the Nobel peace prize, satire died'
"The political equivalent of a skid mark" 😂I'm stealing that one!
me too!
Me three!
😹
I must insist - yes INSIST! - that it is never, really absolutely NEVER okay to criticize someone ad hominem.
Except in this case.
Thank you Mr P, just thank you, from someone who is losing hope for the future. At least you can voice what a lot of us are thinking, even if under the guise of a character, you do it so well 🌹
"Vapid flap of skin" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 brutal but brilliant - as always 👌
I'm a Lesbian and that mental image just turned me straight *shudder*
i laughed and laughed at this Liz Truss truism at the time, but as we have just had the festival of lies and dog whistles in Manchester (as Pie puts it) I had to listen to this again, because it is pure catharsis
An absolutely perfect description of the skip fire that is supposed to be our government! I could listen to it for hours!
Amazing, how he is holding himself back and remaining so calm :-)
may said the quiet part out loud when she tried to one up labour by claiming 'we are the party that's had 3 female prime ministers' ...
truss was literally only put in place for that soundbite...
what may 'forgot' to add, was that all three of those prime ministers were removed from office in disgrace.
I cannot express in words how much I enjoyed this video...thank you for this catharsis!!!!
Truss’s premiership was like a 20-year-old supply teacher in a rough comprehensive literally s*itting themselves in the middle of a GCSE geography lesson and then attempting to continue with the class 😂
Yea we saw the video
It was crapping themselves, only with the S word.
Perfect
@@stevenroe4991 SOme of us like to savour the line.
Shitting
absolute gem of a report from the best, thank you for speaking my mind.
So true about an actual competent person. When the Tories got power in 2010 there was a noticeable drop in competence and professionalism compared to the Labour days (remember when calling a random (bigotted) person a bigot killed your career?). But even Cameron was way up on what we have seen over the last 6 years. May had some integrity, even if 'Brexit means Brexit' was just about the most ridiculous and meaningless catchphrase ever, but the gov decesended into chaos then. Now we have Sunak, who is likely to bring back competence, people are so relieved to have someone who knows which way is up and at least have the decency to keep his mouthshut rather than deny facts, that, for now, policies don't even matter!
No longer comedy but actually reflection on facts. This is how alot of us feel about the current situation.
My honest viewpoint all politics these days is way to ideological and because of that becomes impossible to be useful to the masses. The party system is broken and this is obvious in almost every country, it needs to become about individuals representing their electorate and working together not singing a party tune.
