- Former Conservative prime minister Liz Truss has lost her seat in the UK general election.
Truss was standing in the constituency of South West Norfolk and lost to Labour by 630 votes.
In 2019, she won the seat with a majority of 26,195.
Truss spent only 45 days as prime minister in 2022 - resigning after a mini-budget went wrong.

Just 630 votes difference, I am genuinely surprised by how many people still voted for her after the big mess she's got herself into as a PM
Brain dead Brits
And by all accounts she was absent from the constituency.
True, the financial markets conspired against her.
Shows the insanity of people voting for the same party all their life, regardless of the shite that happens.
Some people just vote on colour and won’t ever change, which seems insane to me.
She didn't even have the nerve to speak when invited to. She just walked off into political oblivion where she belongs.
The Conservatives as a party have catastrophically failed, and right-wing vote was split by the Reform candidate. Liz Truss was treated unfairly. But that doesn't stop your malice oosing out.
zero consequences
To be fair, she did nothing but stick her foot in her mouth with every previous speech she gave. Maybe wanted to cut her losses.
@@budweiser600Unfairly?! She had one of the shortest reigns in British history because she was a disaster. That she wasn't summarily drummed out of Parliament then is more than she deserved.
I’d forgotten she even exists tbh
The Lettuce has left the building
In truth she turned mouldy and slimy long ago.
🤣
It was a very rotten lettuce...about time.
No the lettuce won not liz truss
No, the lettuce is still sitting there, Liz Truss on the other hand has walked off into political irrelevance
Liz Truss turned up LATE to this count. Also take note that she's not even wearing her party rosette. Absolute shambled of a human being, never mind as a former MP or PM.
I did indeed notice that. It may have been the reason she was late, as she had lost it. A bit like the voting. 😬
Maybe she had to be coaxed out of the bathroom again.
She's a complete train wreck.
Maybe she knew she lost or was likely to and was told she had to attend
She not bother she had enough as well
Look at the state of her… The vacant expression and dunce demeanour. How did we ever sink so low?
She is utterly vapid.
The obvious answer to that question is the people fell asleep at the wheel of their own country since the end of ww2. And now your just waking up to find the car careening off the road toward a massive tree.
@@killman369547 Hey, be greatful people woke up at least.
@@killman369547 Since 1983, surely?
she was a right WET BLANKET AND PAIN IN THE NECK not much lost ............... and that tapeworm rees mogg great to see him gone too
11,217 people living in South West Norfolk voted for her should be the biggest take from this. Astounding, really.
It's difficult to grasp a pencil and mark the correct box with webbed fingers.
Hahaha yeah that is a point well made!
in bred weirdos
Maybe they have no choice.....
Have you seen what’s happening in the US? Oh boy people are dumb.
She was the most useless and spineless PM we've ever had. How she can still show her face in public is beyond me.
Totally agreed!👍🏻👍🏻
This shameless woman is just disgusting.
Oh dear, back so soon. Charles first official act was her handing in her papers
Same with sunak
She wasn’t spineless. It was her recklessness that did for her.
Lettuce pray she does not stand again
😂
Haha classic 😂😂
With Lettuce Liz, it's was always a choice between leaves and romaine... 🥗
Is Truss a conservative or a liberal lunatic?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
To the 11217 people what on earth were you thinking. Fools
Clownservatives are the dregs of civilized society.
Maybe they like her first name
Old habits die hard, mate. She did lose all of her majority to reform, so there are an extra 9000 bigger fools
@@Blubatt do you live in west Norfolk? See how you feel after jermy has had a year in his post.
Fools!
shoutout to that one guy going "YES!" when they realised truss was no longer an mp
For those of you who weren't watching live, she was literally late to the announcement. As the audience waited, they started slow clapping for her, and the other candidates were getting impatient. Even when she wasn't PM she was disappointing and angering.
She wasn't late. She'd been told just before that she lost and refused to get on stage.
And couldn’t even be bothered to wear the Blue Rosette of Selfservative Allegiance.
An utter disgrace of a politician. I hope she disappears into obscurity.
@@Xerus35 Which is completely unacceptable
A lettuce is never late, nor is she early. She arrives precisely when she means to.
@@dominicchallis2928the lettuce was peeling off its dead layers she can now join the gravy train
She shows no shame for the damage she caused to the country and should have resigned a long time ago. Good riddance!
There’s something very unpleasant about thems that’s shameless. Very unpleasant indeed .
Walking away, like the rest of the failures with nice pension, paid for by us, in her back pocket
So she’s British version of CCP
She let herself down by her petulant childish behaviour at the count,not even having the decency to thank her supporters! What a contrast to Penny Morndaunt! Good riddance!
100% - no humility whatsoever, just walked off scowling.
Penny Morndaunt was all class, thanking all her supporters and offering aid to the incoming MP.
Took an eternity to get on stage as well, kept all the other candidates waiting. Very disrespectful, sums her up perfectly.
Penny is a W.E.F. puppet
Is Truss a conservative or a liberal lunatic?
Do you mean lettuce elf down?
How does she manage to make just standing still look so awkward?
@@chegu071 using the solo brain cell to breath makes anything else a strain
She's always been good at looking totally Gormless ;)
She looked like she’d been sedated.
She is the one laughing, 5 minutes on the job, walks away with a PM pension… 😢
She should have been jailed. Imagine if anyone else had lost their company so much money on a whim .
IN UK PM have thhe life pension really ??? should be abolish
@@lisaroybeauparlant9551 just one of many perks it seems..
Yeah, there was an unpaid intern in my office that work harder than her for much longer.
Embarrassing woman. Remove that PM pension from her.
I hope so. It's a scandal
@@josephclift3662 Why she was a PM, there is nothing scandalous about it
Its sad if she can get a pension considering how short she served as a pm
@@minimaster96 Why the regulations do not state how long you have to be PM
She tore down what millions had help build over decades in 9 days.
Forget the pension, make her work at McDonald’s for minimum wage
1997 - Portillo moment
2024 - Truss moment
And she did only by 500 votes .but look at reform ya nice .be scared of reform
👌
@@Andy-kj1rcnot with 13 seats. Lemme know when they get 100
@@Shsjier well the poll she wound lose any way
@@Shsjier labour may of got more vote if they had not been there .ya just don't know how it wound of gone
Cant believe that anyone was crazy enough to vote for Truss after the appalling damage she has done. Well done Labour.
Well done, Reform Party. Labor is just as likely to let in the immigrants as Sunak.
@@christophergraves6725 Immigrants have built this country. Reform is just a party of racists.
@@christophergraves6725 Well done, Reform Party, for destroying UK's economy and global reputation. If Truss votes are baffling, UK citizen voting for the ones who literally destroyed them should be sent to Rwanda.
She would have won if Reform didn't take her votes away
@christophergraves6725 this country was built with immigration. It's a better country for that. Reform party are just r@cists.
I cannot believe that ANYONE would vote Truss at all.
I had a pretty stressful day at work today. Whenever I needed cheering up I thought of this moment and a smile would spread across my face :)
And the Rees-Smug moment too..
So pleased she lost her seat. Shame she didn't have the good grace to congratulate the incoming Labour MP for that constituency, says a lot, really.
The Labour candidate should have got down on his knees and kissed the feet of the Reform candidate who made his win possible.
Yea you got Labour over the line, thanks@@jjefferyworboys8138
@@jjefferyworboys8138 If Reform were not there, Labour would have won by even more. Reform is largely a protest against Conservative and, if we're honest, so is Labour. Hopefully Reform will be irrelevant by the next election.
Or Putins ?
@@jjefferyworboys8138 pfft cope harder Reform moron xd
Looking at her smug face. Just incredible
Ever since Johnson the Tories have come on the idea that you only have to grin like an idiot and everyone will think that you are one of them.
Bye bye, Bozo
Thats shock I think
It's just her usual blank vacant expression. She's so dense that light bends around her
As someone with resting smug face I find this very offensive (jokes)
the lettuce genuinely would've gotten more votes than her
Can someone explain to me what this lettuce thing is about?
just google "liz truss lettuce"
@@andrewyakovlev9710Some British newspaper started the joke of the Lettuce. They thought Liz Truss’ time as prime minister would be as long as a life of a lettuce. This trend caught on a lot of people. Eventually, Liz Truss obviously failed and the Lettuce still lived after she left Downing Street.
The woos and 'Yes' at Truss's result 😂
She literally put people pension savings at risk, why 11000 people voted for her? Is there something i dont know?
Shit happens, for every loser there is a winner.
Never EVER underestimate the stupidity of the masses. They have just voted a landslide victory for the worst party of all to dispose of the second worst party.
People fear change
“Democracy is of the people, by the people, for the people. But the people are stupid.” I’m all for democracy but this quote ain’t wrong lmao
its norfolk
It's fantastic news that Truss lost her seat,people realised finally how incompetent she was.Nice one Liz now piss off.
Well said.
Amazingly, 11,000 did not.
Is Truss a conservative or a liberal lunatic?
@@christopherlyndsay8611- Brekshit showed clearly how many stupids live in the UK...
LOL Love It!!!!
Good. She should be in jail for what she did to this country.
And she now gets a 300k pension.
Yeah, that pension needs stopping
@@SevenOfNine-7it does need stopping,she’s a f***in nut job
Do former Prime Ministers in the UK have pension for life after leaving?
After she ruined mine
At least she got millions of dollars of payment for delivering a speech in Taiwan.
Like all outgoing members she had the opportunity to speak after the results where announced but she said no and walked off stage. Basically giving her constituents the finger.
That was still too close. 11,217 people of North West Norfolk need to stop huffing fertilizer, or whatever it is they do for fun out there.
You missed the bit where everyone waited 10 minutes for her to finally shuffle into the platform.
A fitting end to the fiasco of her political career, notwithstanding all the damage it caused to so many.
End? She will contest again the the future. You think these guys go away easily?
She’s shamelessly making a living around the American Trumpian conservative speaking circuit.
? I mean, no one's a victor here but tbh she wasn't the one who caused the housing market collapse and passed the Br£xit vote?
Good Riddance, she's the reason we can't afford to pay for heating at winter.
What a load of crap it because of the EU mate not making a score deal with Russia on gas and oil deal.so don't talk crap
@@Andy-kj1rc the EU that you guys left?
@@Andy-kj1rc Her disastrous bungling even further drove up mortgage repayments per month. She is specifically the cause behind many people's financial struggles as a factor for many people - not everyone, no, but many. She's patently unfit for public office, and it's a travesty that her weeks-long stint as PM has left her with a pension of well over 100,000 a year for life - and she still has several decades ahead of her - as a reward for harming millions of people.
@@vercoda9997 yep
@@vercoda9997 not saying she dont
The single most embarrassing leader that the uk has had in recent memory, and that’s really an impressive “achievement” considering both her predecessor and her successor.
It looked like she was struggling to do the maths before the winner was announced
She still looks absolutely gormless.
but that smug smile has gone so you know 'toh-may-toes, toe-mah-toes' 🙃
I'm overjoyed by this. I can't believe she had the nerve to even run again. Or frankly, to stay in Parliament after 2022.
exactly. Anyone with a shred of dignity would have gotten under the duvet and not came out again but not her.
I can't believe she has the nerve to shop for potatoes at Tesco
Fantastic
The Truss supporters going "Awww" then that one person woo hooing got me 😂
When the camera just centred on Liz Truss looking gormeless as usual I just 😂😂😂
Absolutely brilliant. The best result.
😂😂
A very poor performance by Labour who owe their victory to Reform.
Reform caused this bless em !
@@jjefferyworboys8138cry
An absolute waste of space
They are but Labour have a 5 year term.
People still voted for her?! Absolute Bunch of sheep...
Believe it's called a flock of sheep ,and seagulls
That’s what people do, follow the sheep😂. Now we’ve got more of Labour, it’s like being on a merry go round.😢
@@Shabs2456It was most likely a vote against the Torries after 14 years of getting nothing done than a vote in favour of Labour. Reform also to an extent had a spoiler effect that benefited Labour at the expense of the Torries. It’s called tactical voting which I’ve done in the past and did it again to help oust the Torries even though I disagree with a number of Labours policy’s even as their leader has shifted them to the centre from the left
She could only last 49 days in her job as PM. If she couldn’t steer the ship after saying that she could why does she deserve to be on the boat?. Politicians like her have made fools out of this country. Good riddance.
Truss put her country in huge debt, how dare she want a seat?
There were two monster raving looneys running for that seat.
Also, classic sign language motions at the end there. 😂
In December she'll be in Beijing, trying out new pork markets! 🐽
🤣🤣🤣
The real winner was the lettuce
Can't believe monsters like Braverman and Sunak still won their seats after all the horrible things they have said and done.
The monsters here only got 338. More than the communists though.
I hope Braverman becomes the new Tory party leader, with a much more right wing agenda.
@@jjefferyworboys8138that’s not a good thing
@@jjefferyworboys8138 just do the black shirts agian, ey
He didn’t even have Sky when he was growing up. The struggle is real.
Perhaps THE biggest clown to ever hold a major office like PM.
Cheerio liz! Hope we don’t see your face again!
Her face when the penny dropped. Priceless.
Clearly the Truss was too poorly built to support even the weight of a Penny
Great, so pleased to see this.
I'm really sad that The Official Monster Raving Loony Party candidate didn't get more votes.
Just another example of why the UK should have adopted preference voting.
To be fair, she did come in second!
Glad the looney party lost bye bye to tories
what do you mean? reform UK had a good showing
Is Truss a conservative or a liberal lunatic?
'Lets just hear the victory speech' > immediately cuts away to the newsroom. Classic.
But remember, she's a fighter, not a quitter.
Who’s going to look after our cheese Imports? The situation is disgraceful!
Pork markets closed! Back to the greengrocers with the lettuce!
Another one bites the dust. Close seat, but Truss lost a majority of 26,000. She brought this on herself.
It takes a certain kind of talent to lose that badly.
@@geoffpoole483 Her very short tenure as PM made fools of the people who elected her.
@@ipohtennischannel5482 Who's the bigger fool? The ones who elected her the first time around, or the 11,217 people who voted for her this time around?
@@user-pn4py6vr4n definitely the repeat voters. But that just shows power of brand recognition. It doesn't matter what ppl do slap a Tory label on them and certain amount of ppl will still vote for them
Reform can be thanked for splitting the vote here. Labour couldn't have done it without them!
I can't believe people voted for her. What's the matter with these people
At least three quarters of people crammed on this island are thick as fuck tbh
Well some puddings even voted for Liebour.
Right wing voters care more about never being proven wrong than voting for a good candidate. If they change their vote then that means they might have been wrong and thats the worst thing in the world to their egos.
@@dragonfly6908 Drunk off Tory sewage?
Sour grapes from Truss..what do you expect...embarrassing.
How disgusting she is not even to public acknowledge her own TEAM , GOOD Riddance I SAY
They stuck with her to the end. Disgusting.
A prime example of a bad loser!
Hahahhahah😂 out with the rotten unhinged lettuce
The shocking thing is that there were people still willing to vote for her!!!
Just when you think she couldn't fall any further...
Reform really sank her. I feel like this is the end of the conservatives as we know it
Very true, Labour should be incredibly grateful.
@@jjefferyworboys8138more like the tories should be grateful that UKIP made a deal not to stand in 2019
Same was said about labour after Blair and Brown. Same was said after the Tory PMs before that. Guess what? The cycle continues. They'll be in power and ruining everyone's lives until it's their turn to be unelectable again. That's basically how it works. Labour are just as terrible, and are getting the vote because everyone is sick of the current government, which is why they beat labour in the first place lol.
The so-called conservatives. Reform with Nigel are the real conservatives.
Reform sank many Tories. Unless the Conservatives can accommodate Farage and Reform, they're never going to in charge of Britain again.
Travesty anyone voted for the most disastrous UK PM in history.
She was not fit.
It could hardly happen to a more deserving person.
Having her in Westminster over the last two years is a total disgrace to the institution.
The sign language for the Monster Raving Loony Party at 1:07 had me cackling ngl haha
Couldn’t happen to a nicer cow
Recount please, nobody voted for liz or rishi,looks suspicious
Occam's razor on was it a corrupt vote or are people just morons = the latter
She lost so no need. If her seat election was redone she’d likely lose more votes because of refusing to thank her supporters which says a lot about her
I am seriously worried about the 11,217 people who voted for Liz Truss. I think they must need help. What on earth were they thinking?
Over 11,000 people ACTUALLY voted for the lettuce. I have NO WORDS.🤨🙄
This woman should have been & arrested & charged with treason for what she did to the economy when she was supposed to have been the Prime minister 🤬
what did she do to the Economy? I must have missed that. On the other hand I do remember what lockdown do to the economy?

Yet Sunak did worse
The sad lettuce.

Ahh good ol’ BBC, wearing their bias on their sleeve
"Let's just hear the victory speech" ... "Nah, to hell with that, let's point out how small the margin was and try and make it look less damaging."
Untrussworthy Liz finally leaves. Yes
Awww look at her face. She had no idea. It will take a few minutes for her to register.
Also both Boris’ seats, May, Cameron and Major’s seats gone, Rees Mogg lost and Galloway too.
Goodbye to the Lettuce!
She never deserved that seat hahaha
🤣🤣🤣 Quick, give her it back and take it away again......
Still hard to believe that liz was actually PM, how on earth was it allowed to happen
Those numbers went straight over her thick head
should of brought an abacus along :D
Couldn't have happened to a nicer lady - pay back from making everyone's bills expensive
Retires with a fat pension, that'll teach her.
@@MichaelOrthodoxChristian sad times!
Byeeeee
That one guy in crowd who woohoo'd her loss is amazing. She had to hear that.

Im glad I saw that...in fact Ill watch it again
“Ding dong… the wicked witch…”
I wonder whose she's going to blame this time?
Her husband?
Lettuce?
She can go work for Tony Blair.😊😊
Now if the US can also get rid of it's conservative problem
Justice. For losing my dream house after your "mini budget" then losing 000s on the sale of mine.
Haha she was only init to get pensioned off now she gets 120,000 GBP every year and was only PM for 6 weeks😂
Shes a statue she really is the way she is stood shes not human 😂😂
The ultimate embarrassment.
She is NOT welcome in my sane town. ⛔⛔⛔
If she gets a job at Tesco don't put her on the checkouts she will bankrupt them!
Out with the trash
