- Ed Miliband gave British voters a taste of what a Mili-prime minister may have looked like in the House of Commons today, as he took Chancellor Rishi Sunak to task over his handling of the cost of living crisis.
With millions experiencing hunger and facing a dire year ahead, the Shadow Secretary of State for Climate Change and Net Zero tore into the Chancellor for being 'so out of touch' that he doesn't realise 10 million families in the UK don't have any savings.

There is something fundamentally wrong when someone can do an important and high skill job like nurse, school teacher, fire fighter, etc and yet be expected to get a second job to make ends meet. We literally have nurses skipping meals and going to food banks. That is not at all right. That is firmly this governments responsibility.
@@Hartley_Hare alot do have 2 jobs on the days they should be chilling out and forgetting about the previous 4 days of cutting people out of cars etc
This is absolute nonsense and pure lies, i can't believe there's people out there who actually think this is true
Or is it the fact the fiscial balance In this country doesn't reward skilled workers?
Indeed. Especially as these people have to go through an education system which leaves them with masive debt thanks to all three major political parties.
@@bobmarley2140 Are you joking? I’ve known firemen take home after a full month after all deductions and take home 1400!
it's shocking that full time work, doesn't cover basic needs of the worker
That's the thing, whys it worth working if you can barley get by still
Up this comment. Well put.
Honestly I struggle to actual process that as an actual scenario!
@D C exactly, people need to stop living beyond their means, myself and her indoors survive off £42 of groceries a week, it's not very hard
@D C Im guessing 446 is a big chunk to you
I love how MILLIONAIRES tell people who are skint how to save or spend money when they themselves will NEVER have to worry about the next bill. And claim back expenses when you and I don’t have that luxury.
I love how our leader discussed the cost of living crisis after the queen's speech last week, and had nothing to give to those suffering and wondering if they can eat or heat within it.
I am so fed up of 'what aboutism', this right wing, racist government is pissing me right off and idiots defend this shit, Conservatives = self servatives.
We might have been able to sell some gold if brown hadn't given it away,or bailed his mates out in the city
@@martinwilby8942 sorry if that's tongue in cheek - we don't have a gold standard anymore, it's all fiat money, so if we wanted to print more to do stuff we absolutely could. You are absolutely right though, bailing the bankers in 2008 and then telling you and me that we have to pay the bill was complete horseshit.
I love it when other fellow workers tell me I'm not living within my means when I'm living paycheck to paycheck. They're as bad as the tories. Stockholm syndrome at work
Politicians are not here to solve problems, heck they aren't real politicians anyway. They are most millionaires and billionaires, just doing a temp job, to ensure favourable policies are passed to protect their wealth.
The clues are everywhere.
Rishi does fully understand what he isn't doing . Simply he doesn't care because it doesn't affect him.
Affects none of them they don’t give a fuck and we shouldn’t either go into crime and rob from the rich I say can’t put us all in prison

The fact that Rishi can smile and look so uncaring hearing this shows he must go. Maybe we should take all his money as well. That would wipe the smile off his face

The government gets away with what they think they can. Thank heavens the British public are stupid and put up with it.
It's much worse than that I'm afraid
Yup. Eugenicists
Rishi Sunak finds it amusing. Boris Johnson also smirks and laughs when confronted with serious questions. The Tories are laughing at the British public.
They are most likely laughing because they know they can, they know the public will vote them back in again anyway.
It is called "carefully edited".
AGAIN!!!
@@dragonfly6908 Even with editing, it's still apparent. The Tory government are laughing at us all.
@@MrSmith_ So are Labour. Easy to have all the answers when you are in opposition.
Passionate, intelligent, stirring stuff from Miliband. Shame he’s just being laughed at from the other side- what utter contempt this Tory govt show in the face of abject failure.
The Tory Party and Labour are two sides of the same coin. How many affordable Houses did Blair build in his 16yrs?.Labour bought in 126 stealth taxes of which few if any have been removed by the Tories. Labour signed the taxpayers up to 35yr PFI contracts for Hospitals where we pay overinflated costs of the NHS Hospitals and will continue to pay over the odds. Labours idea of high taxes, huge State sector with nice pensions, Bureacracy on another level and a return to the EU etc is a great idea Right?.I'm working class, born and bought up on a Council estate, not affluent but I will never vote Labour because I want to be free to control my own life and not have a bloated,expensive State machine to tell me how to live my life.
You've soon forgotten what a fool he made of himself.
He'd have been a fantastic PM. There'd be no Brexit referendum and we'd have had a nice, boring five years until covid hit.
I think he would have done something about housing, public transport and the NHS.
Brilliant speech. Hits the nail squarely on the head.
They all play there games but absolutely all of them are useless and it’s time us the voter stopped wasting our time with them
Who wrote it, I wonder?
It's so deliberate. You can see their thinking, "make them struggle, and they will have to work to get out of it".
However HOW!?
I could work a second job, but I am already full time, so where is the bandwidth to do this.
They would love work houses to come back, I swear, someone certainly has suggested it.
They'll probably say something like "you could be working instead of whining on TH-cam" or some other insane shit like that.
jacob probably did
You deserve to live comfortably on full time work in one job. The conservatives don’t respect you enough to give you that dignity, they only see you as a slave. A cog in the machine that makes them money. You deserve better.
@@aughawillen you mean *_Judas Reeking Smogg_*
If you're working full time hours now..what is it that you're struggling with? I don't doubt that there are people out there struggling to make ends meet but for a small portion of the public it does come across like a 'living beyond your means' situation.
Yup, my partner and I have little to no savings. Most of our money goes on rent and bills. We're trapped in rental hell, with no way to escape.
can you not work harder?? surely, get a second job...
Hang on, rents will be going up soon due to inflation...mine has gone up already this year and surely won't be coming back down.
Thats why it's called "The Rental Trap" for it surely is.
@@alext6742 Pro Tip: You don't have to agree to the rent increase! It's up to you. I have previously refused rent increases from 2 different landlords. You can say something along the lines "Sorry, I cannot afford it. I'd like to continue with our agreed price". It's far more expensive for them to pay the estate agent fees to re-market the property and lose rent by having it empty for a month or two, than it is to just accept the existing rent. Having said that, there's obviously a chance you'll be asked to leave when your existing contract expires. So it's not a completely risk free move.
@@deehaytch8442 I hope this is sarcastic
I am glad the camera moved to sunak, as he smirk’s to Millibands brilliant and true address. What a whopper.

This is not just poverty, this is Tory Poverty.
Yeh! like there was no poverty under Labour???

@@khankrum1 Compared under the Tories there wasn't, look it up Tory boy.
Absolutely!
To think we could have had this person as a compassionate caring Prime Minister. Instead the British public chose an idiot that brought in austerity (that wasn't needed), and delivered Brexit that will further harm the UK for decades to come! 😐
He's had coaching on how not to sound as posh and spoon-fed as he previously did. And he's clearly been told to change his way of speaking gradually, so it doesn't seem so strange. He's started by dropping some T's. Also let's not forget Labour voted for fascism and attacks on freedoms when they voted for the vaccine passports. Lib Dems didn't. Vote Liberal Democrats.
lmao labour are the worst choice to make they're lunatics, tories ain't the best these days, they're just the lesser of the two evils, an whats wrong with brexit? it was the best decision the people of this country ever made and its showing with the state of other countries in the eu
@@anon131 lunatics because? Your comment has no substance, and therefore meaningless! If you can't see what's wrong with Brexit....🙈 let's put it another way, what are the benefits? Lastly any party at this point is more credible than the Tories.
@@raphael9339 no one in the labour party can even define what a woman is that just proves they can't be taken serious or trusted, they divide the nation with hatred they bring racism into everything, if there was a vote tomorrow to legalise groomers they would be voting for it rather than opposed to it, they don't care about the country they want it destroyed within as long as it dont affect them in their little gated of communities or their country homes in the middle of nowhere, boris is married to a lefty thats why he is doing such a bad job with that nut job screaming and crying down his ear every 2 seconds and brexit is good because we as a independent country don't have to be told what to do by another country anymore we have no fears in going bust like other countries in the eu like other countries we are in huge debt but having the eu say give your money to this country an that country isn't helping our country, we can control illegal immigration better even though its out of hand already, its why more than half the country voted to leave not once but twice, Labour need the nation divided and fighting each other other skin colour, sexuality, religion, biological sex or if you prefer the groomer made up term "gender" and trans, an they want all the illegals as they can get just for the votes they will never get in power again while the majority have a say, it might look like there's a lot of labour supporters because online they're the only ones allowed to voice an opinion anyone else gets silenced which is another great leftist tactic talk only if you agree with me, but the silent remain silent they listen to the screams coming from out the lunatics asylum and vote for the good of the country
@@anon131 what has the definition of a woman or whatever got to do with running the country? Nothing, that's just Tory deflection of what an atrocious job they are doing.
It doesn't matter who Boris is married to or how many kids he has that he doesn't know about, he will always be a walking lying car crash.
I don't care who gets into power next time as long as it's not the Tories EVER again. As anyone at this point will do a better job.
You do know that you the UK didn't gain anymore sovereignty from Brexit and we could already make our own laws. We gained nothing in that department, anyone that thinks otherwise was duped by the Brexiteer lies.
You sound like a Trump looney if you're going on about a silent (majority) lmao, look how it ended for those scumbags. It will be the same for the Tory scumbags lol 🤣 The British public are fed up, and nothing can turn around the Tory wagon of excrement before the next election.
Given his wealth, Sunak could NEVER be '...in touch...' with ordinary working class people or the difficulties they are facing.
Naw u can be rich and still have a soul richys jus evil
Britain sinks even lower. Never forget Osborne’s economic austerity experiment - took away resilience to crises.
Yep. Things are only getting worse.
Spot on, well done Ed. It's the working classes, ordinary people who drive economies and pay the vast majority of taxes. That's why our economy here in the UK hasn't really gone anywhere since 2010, because the minimum wage isn't fit for purpose and the tories have been suppressing real wage growth. It's only when the workers have enough spare money to spend, that the economy grows. The wealthy just hoard their money and invest it in the stock markets and property, that's why stock markets have been in the longest running bull market in recorded history since 2009 and property prices soaring
Actually the top 20% of earners pay 80% of the total tax, but you keep on reading the Daily Mirror and the Morning Star comrade.
@@bobdylan7120 yet these people keep on spewing the same ignorant rubbish.
Ed is wrong
@@bobdylan7120 someone has to buy their products in order for them to pay tax... not to mention the massive decrease in corporation tax over the last ~40 years, along with regular bailouts for billionaires and constant restriction on lower classes. I hope you're rich, because otherwise people with opinions like yours are half the reason this country is going in the direction it is.
Who supported this corrupt government during the covid scam that has led to this shit show, one guess, both party's the cheeks owned by one arsehole. WEF.
Best prime minister we never had.
Ed tried to push the cost of living as he tried to become PM in 2015. There's an alternate universe where folk listened and the utter chaos of of the last 7 years was avoided.
You can’t just “avoid” the Great Reset.
You know as well as I do that almost every MP is following agenda 30, regardless of what party they follow.
Sunak completely exposed here as the rich smug toff he is.
Well done and thank you, Ed - let’s boot this government out asap.
There are more than a few multi millionaire Labour MP's including Ed Miliband. Sir Keir Starmer is reported to be worth between £4 to £7 million and Jeremy Corbyn is reported to be worth £3 million, to name but a few.
@@dragonfly6908 it’s not primarily about wealth. It’s how they use their power in government. Sunak is meant to be serving the people of this country and doing his upmost to make this an improved place to live for everyone. It’s an honour, as well as a huge responsibility.
Instead he uses tax payers money and the country’s reserves as a cash cow to serve his and his party’s narrow self-interests. Cutting universal credit during a pandemic and cost of living crisis while you write off £4.3 billion of fraudulently-claimed Covid loans (likely including his wife’s).
The man is a disgrace. Just like his boss, Johnson. They don’t care about securing the future of this country and making it a fairer, happier place - they are in it for the short term and will get all they can out of it before leaving someone else to the wreckage. Just like Cameron and Osborne before them.

There is another option. Starve, get a second job, starve some more, get a third job, starve a bit less and not sleep. This is the option the public will pick. the mind boggles.
The multi millionaire Sunak married to a billionaire really feels your pain.
Are single people ever included in anything anyone says? Families will struggle, but single people are ok? Bit like the " hardworking " thing.
Good points otherwise.
I agree, i am single, and the harsh reality is that if i am unable to work, i am in serious trouble!
We are the forgotten ones who's voice is never heard, and society ignore, yet our taxes pay for their
benefits.
yes they always say hardworking families.....though I always think if you are hardworking you shouldn't be hungry,.
anyways hats off to you, single must be a bit rough, though your own boss etc.
Yep. Single homeowner here and starting to struggle, yet they never care about people like me. Just living on rice, beans and Asda smart price fruit and veg now. Netflix subscription cancelled so just back to reading books and watching TH-cam now. Going for walks for days out as it's free. Politely decline any invites out anywhere that costs money. Cold showers only, and only for three minutes max. Make all my own toiletries and cleaning products. If I need clothes, it's charity shop or nothing. I feel privileged because I haven't lost my house or had to use food banks... Yet. But it feels like being a wage slave - working full time to just scrape by. Stay strong.

The Universal Uplift should never of been removed. It was irresponsible for the Tory party to do this.
They are Tories - its what they do - it was NOT irresponcible. Its what they do. Its what they have done for 200 years, they screw the poor and give to the rich.
that 20 quid uplift to benefits weekly for 18 months , never got given to those on legacy benefits (pre uc ) this amounted to 1500 quid denied those who were in the same boat as those on uc , it went to court , got delayed , then finally a decision was made in favour of the dwp , ie creating 4th class citizens was legit when we all know it lacked any fairness
I'm sure that's why they did it. It seems like they're going out of their way to do the dumb thing at basically every turn.
What about us working folk on minimum wage. we didn't get no 'uplift'. we got fuck all.

10 million families had no savings under Tony Blairs Labour and the chumps kept voting for Labour and to make it worse, the gap between rich and poor grew more under Labour than at any time before since the 30s, to which Labour ran the country then!

In other words you're voting not on issues, policies or manifestos but on speaking style, personality and superficial appearance. And no doubt there are millions of other people just like you.
One of the most underrated politicians in British politics.
YEP - I agree
No he is weak
his major mistake as leader was to disown 13 broadly successful years of labour government, but i still like and admire the guy. he will get a top job when the tories (i pray) lose the next election, prob a labour lib dem coalition

If we were on the same pay and expenses as the politicians, we would be ok.
Maybe all MP's should be paid the minimum wage and not be allowed to claim any expenses? Think we'd see exactly where their priorities lie then.
The MPs pay should be set as the National Average. And voted on by an outside committee, NOT the MPs themselves.
If their wages were reduced to the same as the ordinary working person , then we would soon find out who really had an interest in our country and its hard working people , as they would be one with the people and not of those who Lord it over them !.

Yes, because capitalism is doing so well 👍
Wealth distribution in the Uk has become monstrous - it deprives millions of opportunity and condemns so many to a cycle of poverty - UK govt needs sustainable policies to address social housing / food and energy poverty - society is failing millions
Sunsk is a sickening symptom of the corruptness of politics today, Boris won’t touch the windfall profits of his paymasters the Oil Companies and Sunak with his billionaire lifestyle is so far adrift and so far from caring that it is very sad.
I lived through high inflation and high interest rates and we’re in for rough times ahead…..
How could anyone in Parliament ever know what it’s like to have nothing. Most of them have probably never gone without food or worried themselves sick over a bill.
Perhaps a spell of poverty for all these politicians might help run the country better!

@@mcjs8640 Damn right they don't.
Not sure how the 'working class' and 'Tories' can ever be bed partners, but it's a very strange world out there. I just hope these people finally come to their senses, as it would be about time.
I’m not massively into politics, but Ed sounds a lot better in terms of putting his arguments across than Starmer. All the political party’s should be coming together trying to sort this cost of living crisis. For a government to try and pay back the cost of Covid in a couple of years seems crazy to me. Yes it needs to be paid back but all these governments forget one thing: ITS THE WORKING CLASS WHO ARE PAYING FOR THESE SCHEMES. ITS OUR HARD EARNED TAXES THAT PAYS FOR ALL THEIR MISTAKES. In their world there is NO cost of living crisis.
There are three classes. Working class, unemployed class and retired class. So we all pay for everything. We have never been better off despite COVID. Don't believe the MSM.
He’s a very good Politician!
I’d like to see the speech in full.
Ed would’ve been a great PM but he was too scared to fight back against Tory lies and the corporate media
Tend to agree. Sometimes the moment is there or it isnt
The media was against him. They posted pictures of him eating sandwiches rather than his policies. That's the problem right there. Media controlled by ex torys. Even some one who was issued a fine is running the sun. But convenient a picture came out of Kia having a beer while on campaign the day before the local council elections
Job came too soon for him imo.
I think the fact that he had the job and failed is what has made him more confident. He's been through the media meat grinder and lost a general election and he's still in the commons and in the shadow front bench. I think until a politician has been defeated at some point they see failure as final, but in truth it's not and once you know that you don't feel like you're walking on a tightrope anymore.
He should run again
The council tax should be scrapped.
Oh for that "coalition of chaos" we were promised. I think he would have been a good PM, shame the media run the country :(
And he sits there laughing at us 🦎 🏴
Of course they are rich idiots ..no :we are idiots putting up with them ..that just want the money without the real responsibility’s of running the country..they are in charge of everyone purse strings..they need voting out.

My wife and I work in schools. We skipped three meals last week. Education wages, as set by this government, have not risen in line with inflation for the past decade. The sustained cut in real terms wages means that teachers are now £500 per month worse off. It is time for the Tories to go. Time for a government which works for ordinary people.
If you work in schools i suggest you look for the hidden parts of the curriculum that play a role in reproducting small c conservatives, and seek to root it out of the education system.
Also advised to ensure sen kids and kids on fsm's are not targetted , blamed for schools poor records and used as fodder in the great acadamy scam.
Probably good to articulate to the kids how and why foodbanks are bad and how the political class have used charity to replace the hard fought for welfare state. Reminding them their grandfathers and grat grandfathers died to create the welfare system and all that we take for granted.
I have one meal a day because it's much more healthy for you. Twitter boss Jack Dorsey does the same.

You walk around any town or city centre in the UK and it's the same; poverty stricken individuals devoid of hope, business premises vacant, no police to be seen, a completely altered racial demographic and a sense that this is all by design. Thanks to you Sunak, you and your Government (under orders from the Davos crowd) have just about put the final nail in the UK's coffin.

Had to google how many “families” (family households) there are in U.K. . Almost 20 million according to O.N.S.
“Any civilised society is only three square meals away from a revolution.” Source, disputed.
If that 2 million rises, it won’t take much to light the spark. And there is a certain hostile foreign power who is desperate to see Britain immolate itself rather than continue sending aid to the Ukrainians. They will add, “fuel,” to this fire. It’s time we replaced this government before it’s too late. The clock is ticking.
Well said Mr Milliband 👍
It's shameful what's happening in this country today.
Family's are going hungry, parents unable to feed there children with nutritional food.
Unable to heat there homes due to cost.
Pensioners afraid to heat there homes ,
Eating just one meal a day.
Food banks everywhere, it needs to stop
We are living in a rich country.
Well said Ed millerband, they are totally out of touch with the public .
Boris johnson nigel farage ....youve caused this suffering...
Bullshit!
Well said ed milliband.
He hasn't a clue how us with no savings can literally afford to pay back £200 on top of the rising cost of living. I had £60 a week to live on, that has now been reduced to £50.luckliy i'am single and have no children, i dont have tattoo's or piercings, nor do i do drugs & i hardly go out socalising every week, there is just myself n my cat. Still i'am finding the cost of living extortinate. Rushni needs to wake up and smell the coffee, open ur eyes man, try living like we do then that would wipe that smile of your bloody face.
The £200 is going to be given as a credit to fuel bills in October. £40 extra will be charged to everyone's fuel bills from April 2023 for the next 5 years. We don't get a choice.
Well said Lisa !! Not only he doesn't have a clue I don't think he cares either. Typical Tory - self serving and with their "I'm all right Jack " attitude . People like that never change.
same as me no kids not married just myself and my cat no drugs,smoking or alcohol either. luckily my hobbys are free i like going running in the park and playing apex legends which is an online game. im 32 but live like a old age pensioner.
i get around £300-400 disposable tends to vary after my bills are paid each month which i tend to spend on buying stuff for myself ive given up or trying to save as i know i will never be able to afford my own home prices are too high and i dont earn enough. my outlook now is to work as little as possible and have more time doing the things i like to do why work yourself in to the ground just to make some rich guy richer and be basically no better off for it just a loss of time and unhappy for nothing if they wanted me to give up more of my time it has to be worth it and make a difference to me can understand if someone earning 50k gives up a large amount of there time for it as it is worth it and you can make big changes with that amount over a small amount of time but if u get less then that then nope sorry the min amount possible will be given same goes for the effort involved aswell you get what u pay for.
@@howardcoles3537 thank you howard
Well beng Indian there is a cast system they play by where everyone knows there place in society. We may have a higher living standard then india but essentially we are the same. People with money run the world and the proletariats do the work for a few pennies to survive. It's not really Sunaks fault that the world economy has changed but it is a lesson to everyone to get their shit together for themselves , I,m not sure what has happened for the youth of today but there does seem to be a disconnect between common sense and expenditure like they are quite happy to spend money on X Y and Z and dont seem to get the work , saving then buy mentality. The y want it now and then complain they have no money.......children they are a noose round people necks but the higher eschellons of society need the next generation of workers to do all the work so cannot see much changing there in the short term,....there seems to be a model we are all following does there not. As for me , I;m moving to India to escape the trouble and strife and the 2.5 children, no heating bills for me and my cat from October we are off to Goa ciao Ukers
Nobody takes the Tories to task more brilliantly than Ed Miliband. Always dealing in facts without the bullshit, and always passionate. A real politician of conviction, and emphasises how unconcerned Sunak and his wealthy pals are about the plight of a lot of people. Deserves to be remembered for more than an ungainly attempt at eating a bacon sandwich.
He'll be remembered for his ungainly attempt at becoming Prime Minister also.

"He drank his own Kool-Aid" 🔥🔥🔥
I think it's worse than he says. I would have thought way more that 10 million people have no savings. Sunak needs to realise that everything is affected by people being poor. No money to spend means more companies putting prices up even further and then probably going out of business. It's a massive downward spiral and it won't improve until the government start helping ordinary people.
Cos they dont live in the real world wages gone up no cos we all paying more national insurance and tax
To pay for WELFARE!
@@khankrum1 To pay for the fraudulent PPE contracts that were never delivered and the government's strange reluctance to claw back the money despite the treasury and DPP wanting to do so.
Your not allowed to save, because if you have a small amount of savings. it is taken into account when you need assistance with universal credit.
One of the energy companies chairman's pay was 76 million pounds!
We're all in it together...
and the chairman of the bank of england says we shouldn't ask for pay increases while pocketing £526,000 a year plus bonuses.
In 2009 I put a 2 bed property on the market for rent. I had to choose between 2 nurses who will share the house and couldn’t afford the asking price and asked for £50 discount and an unemployed 25 year old single mum with a baby on benefits who offered £50 more than the asking price.
It wasn’t a simple decision to make but I chose the young mum probably because her 4 months old baby was so cute and every other landlord had turned her down because she was a dss tenant.
She’s been a great tenant.
I watched the girl grow up and almost never put the rent up so the girl won’t have to change schools. The girl was very happy and did very well at school.
Last year, the tenant has told me that she’s leaving. It was strange. It turned out that she saved £200 a month from the benefits but mostly because I didn’t raise rent cause I felt sorry for the girl. 12 years and it’s £30K!
She started working full time and still got some benefits and now bought a house on the same road…
I’m happy for the girl. I’m happy that I gave the mum a break. But I’m almost certain that the 2 nurses are still struggling to even rent.
A sad situation to have to choose, but your generosity will have meant that she is now in a position to help others. It won't have been for nothing.
@@MrSmith_ thanks mate. I’m happy that one cycle of poverty has been broken. The girl is going to an ofsted outstanding school and has a good chance to succeed.
The new tenant is a single mum as well… a nurse from Nigeria and her adorable little one is playing with my kids - so I redeemed myself…
Sunak couldn't care a toss, he's a kept man, he can just ask wifey for a new top of the range car, house or holiday, let alone food for the day.
