Utter, utter w⚓s!
Love, love, love your videos, Joe- someone needs to expose these overly-indulged, contemptuous ghouls!
You asked Wankers and Bankers good work
There is only one answer to these dyed in the wool tories and that is a dinghy to Rwanda ASAP.
I couldn't bare to watch. This was bad enough!!
I thought as a Labour supporter they where all reasonable. I think the thing we do is is create people as the enemy.
I'm on the frontline running a charity who helps the most vulnerable and although the advice wasn't great, no one has any, it's the government job. Let's hope we get a Centre government that will help the poor
That young Tory with the silly hat on is definitely 3 kids in a trenchcoat
Lmaooo
Doesn't appear to understand how hats are supposed to fit above the ear or keep the sun out of one's eyes either. Needs to sack his Milliner, poor sartorial showing
*watches again with this in mind*
Vincent Aldutman, on his way to the business factory
Seeing him in the thumbnail I assumed it was one of those colourised newsreel footage clips from the 1950s. I guess his views are in line with it.
"I don't believe it's going to be as bad as the media is making out. Noone can predict the future" - man who literally made his own prediction about the future.
No one can predict the future... By the way I gambled away everyones pensions on stock futures. Lol soz
Problably so well off,nothing can harm his way of life,so therefore does'nt care!his day will come!
@@nathaneden879 i think its going to be worse
😂😂😂
@Nathan Eden WAKE UP!!
My parents came over here with £500 and made something of them selves, that's why I support the party that created the hostile environment for foreign nationals
Plus £500 back in the day must have been a lot of money as it is always devaluating. So his parents were well off, he is well off and conservative to keep his parents wealth.
£500 was not a lot one generation ago what are you talking about “well off”
£500 wouldn’t even buy you a coffee and a sandwich today.
It's bizarre how they can have that stance without thinking it's ridiculous.
Their parents didn't have a job, came from nothing they claim and yet now they support locking the borders unless you have a very high paying job lined up.
Talk about pulling the ladder up, I hope he enjoys watching the Tories lose this time as he really should be far away from this!
yeah what a wanker, Stockholm syndrome in all it's glory
"If you want economic competence, support the Tories" ... That has aged like milk.
Aged like milk? It’s was sour when this was filmed! 🙃
It's been sour since 1992. Have you ever heard about Black Wednesday?
Did labour give you that free milk back oh wait no.
@@terryj50 Did much better than the Tories between 1997 and 2008.
@@dionbaillargeon4899 no they did not they crashed the economy they gave rates to the banks to set. They sold off most of the hospitals and built homes for the rich. They caused the house price to triple by dropping rates to almost 0.
"strong on armed forces and policing"
*Awkward moment when crime has sky rocketed under the Tories and they've cut police and military spending, either out right, or not having the budgets meet/exceed the inflationary amount*
"Tory party is for freedom"
*Awkward moment when they're introducing protest laws which are trying to make you a criminal for using your human right to protest poor working conditions/pay*
This is so Orwellian it's ridiculous. These are the kinds of willfully ignorant people that drag a country to it's knees
Preach! ✊🏼🚩
Replace drag with "brag" and it's that little bit more accurate. These... people... somehow think that we're somehow better off and should be proud of the utter decline we're experiencing.
@@chromenewt At least they can now claim we are the 'architects of our OWN demise...' - instead of blaming someone else (i.e. the EU) for our joint success, prosperity, growth (the current Con-servative buzz-word) etc! Rather like the democratic rights of turkeys... to vote for Christmas 🤣
They also forget that policing is not the only approach to reducing crime; reducing poverty, creating nice neighbourhoods for people and reducingpeoples workload and stress to improve overall mental health are arguably more important than, "more police" if people aren't hungry, angry, overworked and cold, they will be less likely to commit crimes in the first place!
@@5688gamble absolutely
“Good at managing the country.” “Only party to empower people” “If you want a party good with the Economy”. So delusional.
They think they are so smart but sound so ridiculous. Imagine if GDP borrowing was at 100% even worse than the 2008 crash oh wait it is
I wonder how "empowered" his parents would feel arriving in the UK with only £500 now.
Tories would deport him if they could.
I think they are confusing good with the economy and good on their wallet.
Dangerous thoughtlessness, narcissistic and self-assured and against all evidence and experience.
When someone says "I'm economically conservative" I hear "I am absolutely insulated against economic realities"
Then you don't talk to enough people. I'm working class I build things. I vote conservative because I'm self employed and we don't get any sick of holiday pay. We have to make our own luck. Most people in my position are the same. We are not rich or insulated from anything!
@@williamsulman2646 having wealth ultra concentrated in an ever-diminishing pool of hands is the exact opposite of optimal conditions to run a small business in. Left wing political parties are better economic managers than the right in ANY western country. Wealth does not trickle down from the wealthy to the poor: it trickles up from the poor to the wealthy by the mechanism of debt and increases in production efficiency without paying labour (which creates the value in society) a fair representative compensation for that labour, by means of theft as well as wage stagnation. If you don't understand those three economic fundamentals, you're well insulated against economic realities, whether that's through ignorance or privilege, I couldn't say. Tories have run the economy into the absolute ditch over the last 12 years. Who is actually better off now than they were in 2010?

@@joisagirlsname yeh socialists are vulture capitalists basically. thats perfect way to describe leftists.
That was a tough watch. Especially the guy who talked about the Tories being fiscally responsible. I’d love to hear him explain why we’re worse off now than were in 2010.
A tough watch cause most of what they said was pretty moderate?
Speak for youself, I'm not.
@Ксенія♡укр I hink it has changed somewhat already.
We're all heading for a an almighty Sh*t storm that will eventually lead to prolonged stagflation (which would make a deep recession look like a picnic by comparison). So I would be expecting the Tories to be tightening the purse strings about now, but they're not. They're currently on a borrowing spree!
So I can't decide if this is incompetence or a strategy that embraces what is seen as the inevitable. A "We'll play them at their own game whatever the cost, so long as we win the next election" strategy.
Regardless, the Tories are the ONLY ones acting out of character here, and that in itself is a dramatic change in British politics. It'll be interesting to see how long they keep this up.
So we were better off in 2019 than 2010?
The bloke who thinks Tories support the unions was the funniest. Still not as funny as some of the comments on this video though. "Pandemic and COVID mate"... Hm, and maybe 13 years of Tory austerity?

And before we went to war with Iraq, parliament had a democratic vote. It's called democracy. And all of the Lib Dems mp's voted against the Iraq war, a load of Labour mp's voted against the Iraq war, including Jeremy Corbyn. But all of the tory mp's voted in favour of the Iraq war, bar just one who abstained. And what about the Falklands war, which could have so easily been avoided if thatcher had taken notice of the MOD adviser who told her to send the Ark Royal aircraft carrier, along with back up down to the Falklands well before the Argentinians invaded. And how comes tories accused those people who demonstrated against the Iraq war, at the time, of being traitors. Now tories and their supporters are pretending to be anti war activists
@@billybatts8283 88% of the Tories voted for the Iraq war, whilst 62% of labour MPs voted for the war...

"Undesirables"
The language useage is always the same
“I don’t think people should be joining other parties just because they don’t like the conservatives”
This video is a great example of why we’re in the shit we are in.
The English electorate lets the rest of the union down. I’m not sure if the English electorate has ever been less informed to be honest. People just vote Tory as they feel it fits in with their personal “brand”
I've never understood why some conservative types think that they're anti-establishment punks. "I joined to piss off my parents" etc. Hey Tories, GET IN THE FUCKING MOSHPIT
Always thought this too, the tories ARE the establishment
She didn't want to say "I just joined to pay less inheritance tax"
Well her parents will be probably be Labour voters, another party what is just similar to the tories.

Under Maggie, I struggled not to get into debt, and ended up having to cycle 15 miles to work and back, when my car broke down and I could not afford to get it repaired. Eventually I was working, literally, with holes in the soles of my shoes. After five years of misery, I took voluntary redundancy, and moved abroad. The best thing I ever did. All the tories bring is misery for normal non millionaires, just as they are doing now. They are a curse on the UK.
Good for you Jonathan. Where did you emigrate too? And did you stay there?
Good for you pal.
Don't complain about cycling 15 miles a day. It's good for you.
@@peterwillson1355 don't be dumb, they're talking about a daily ~2 and a half hour commute not a bike ride for fun or exercise
@@hcfybguctugdhu5223 you're joking mate. I ride 39 miles a day for work. 6.5 miles there and back and the rest cycling around, you know, like district nurses used to do . I'm a careworker. I'm 57. I used to commute to uni and back 22 miles a day.
This is giving huge "if you're homeless, just buy a house" vibes
"I'm falling from a plane without parachute"
"Bro... just grow wings"
The delusion here is actually insulting. Wankers. Have they not seen what's happened over the last 12 years
Either no because they vote for the team not the players, or yes and it's exactly what they want to be happening
12 years of mopping up the mess from the last labour government
Yes, and they don't give a sh*t.
@@nathanfurnival8724 You're delusional.
@@nathanfurnival8724 except that none of the statistics back that up. Also how incompetent would you have to be to not fix things in 12 years... I like the Tories and I don't care would probably be less open to criticism.
"We should have the right to send rapists away without the interference of the ECHR." - Why don't you just send half of the Tories to Rwanda then?
You disagree with that ? 🤔
@@nathanfurnival8724 - not what he said or asked. Read it again.
Bear in mind that for every 1 we send to Rwanda, the Tories have agreed to bring 1 back
So...
This was mentioned in regard to Brexit. The ECHR has absolutely nothing to do with the EU. Yes EU countries are members, as are non EU countries. The level of misinformation, ignorance and delusional thinking really is staggering. With people like this as members the Tory party is in serious trouble.
Tories are a rapists , based on what. In 2017 12% of people in jail for sex crimes came from a religious group who were 4.5% pf the population at the time !
I used to work for CAB. Lost my job in July cause the funding was pulled. I'll give myself a ring tomorrow and see if i can sort myself out.
CAB which is now funded by the DWP so they could be gagged into not publicly slating universal credit? That CAB? Nah, they've been bought by the Tories, can't be trusted any more.
Lol why is the Vault-Tec salesman from Fallout 4 in your thumbnail?
as an outsider, It is utterly baffling to see so many young Tories in England
Seemingly that it’s the elderly and working class that vote Tory you mean ? 🤔 that’s what the left wing is always telling us
Realistically there aren't actually that many. Most young people don't vote
There are hardly any young Tories, I think they found all 3 of them for this video lol
Never underestimate the voting power of stupid selfish people.
@@Crispman_777 and those that do are more likely to vote Labour and other left leaning parties XD
"If you want economic competence..." Are you having a fucking giggle mate. Have you SEEN the state of the economy after every single conservative government?!
Shhhhh!
You're not allowed to mention that!
They don’t live in reality.
Both parties are bad but in terms of the 2 party system Conservatives are better for the economy than Labour.
But Conservatives aren't even Conservatives no more they're pretty much left wing culturally. But flip flop to right wing ideologies to keep their core voter base. Absolute joke.
I've vowed never to vote ever again until there's massive political change in the system. It's all corrupt.
The Conservatives are corrupt, Labour are corrupt, the unions are corrupt, the cooperations are corrupt. It's all so bent and twisted.
@@Challerz Check out the factcheck article that shows the real data showing that GDP, Unemployment, growth, annual earnings, income inequality, gender pay gap and health and education spending have been better under labour governments back to the 70s.
If you genuinely believe that the conservative party is culturally left then you probably should be or already are, on a government watchlist.
Pffft. No way are the Conservatives better for the economy. All they do is cut everything back. Life was much better under New Labour and the economy was far better managed.
The utilities should come under state control? That puts that particular Tory to the left of Keir Starmer and that says quite a lot about British politics.
Not going to lie, this gives me a bit of hope. I'm really pleased to see that there is a shift among tory voters to desire nationalised utilities and services, to want more environmental issues to be front and centre. This is a great sign that there are yet people who can believe differently to me but with whom I could reasonably negotiate.
It's far too easy to fall into tribalism on either side of the aisle and seeing that there are yet tory supporters who are willing to agree with left wingers over certain things as a big positive
Because they stand to make significamt cash off of it. The govt will buy businesses at huge over prices. And the climate grift is the new money laundering. Trillions will be spent on it with no change to the outcomes. Other than freedoms removed. You will not own a car. And any travel you do will be tagged for carbon emissions. Once exceeded you will be forced to walk or stay home. All the while money to various companies and thinktanks. Climate change may be a problem. But they dont want to solve it.
yeah, same tbh
there *are* some tories who join because they want to use the political platform to tackle real issues, hence why the UK has somehow become a world leader in wind energy, but so much of the power structure is dominated by corruption that its unlikely these people wil lever be represented by their party. The same is true of labour a large extent as well tbh
Big problem with English voters (and yes I’m singling out English as opposed to uk voters) is that they largely vote Tory as they feel it reflects their personal “brand”. I.e. they see themselves as upwardly socially mobile, hard working, etc - all the cliched things that Tory party markets itself as. English voters need to start actually looking in detail at the party itself, the personnel, its track record, policies etc. it’s not right to just vote for Tory your whole life “just coz I’m a Tory and that’s that”
@@hmu05366 this is the entire election strategy of the Conservative party
"Just don't go into debt" That solves everything lol

@@ozzie2612 Yes it will cause massive amounts of people to get into debt, however living beyond your means (fancy car, makeup etc.) doesn’t help

well said cant think of one thing that prices have come down since privatised the people who make a profit shareholders and i bet most of them are tories

I agree.
Basic needs like latest iPhone, ♥️ 😍 cigarettes and 70 inch TV and £35,000 4x4s.
Some of the disconnection here from reality really shows why we are where we are. And the admission of horrific mistakes yet the willingness to still back the ideology that led to them.
My personal faves :-

3:16 - "honesty, truth, integrity- has that been lacking recently? In the leadership"
5:38 - "personally I want them to be renationalized. And a lot of conservatives do now. They should never have been privatized" - (energy companies)
"you pick where you go at 17"
Noppeeeeeee.
IKR! Spoken like a true posh twat XD
"Just don't get into Debt" fucking genius...
Yeah. I mean, if people didn't get into debt and screwed over with interest rates, how would the banks survive?
Very sound advice.
Makes wonders where he's been living for the last 12 years.
A lot of the problems started when High Street banks introduced overdrafts on current accounts in about 1984. That never used to happen and it doesn't happen today in France, Germany or Spain, where if you need to borrow, you take out a loan! People were enticed into easy debt, with the banks acting like drug peddlers. It became 'normal' to go into the red, and banks then cleaned up by whacking huge fees and ridiculous interest on customers who strayed without permission. For those who get (surprise surprise) a poor credit rating, along come credit cards and failing that, Wonga and Co. Absolute sharks.
@@andrewmarshall9340 Whilst you are not wrong that is not the biggest problem with banks. The issue is the legalised fraud known as fractional reserve banking where a bank creates money as a debt by monetising the Promissory note given to them by the 'borrower' and then demanding repayments plus interest for money they never lent. Look on YT for 'money as debt' and prepare to gobsmacked

What have I just been witness to? The other day my elderly next door neighbor gave her grandchild some money to buy a milkshake as a treat and her grandchild had to return and ask for more money because the price has suddenly gone up. This is genuinely going to turn good people to crime. It's terrifying and it seems that these individuals don't understand that desperate people will do whatever it takes to get by. People with more than they need should learn to keep their mouths shut for their own safety because Charles Darwin was not wrong.
I've worked all my life, been to university (saved and paid later in life (late 20s when I went...first in my family to do so) , granted it was slightly cheaperas a 'mature' student), and yet I have still managed to find myself unemployed from time to time (I'm in my 50s by the way) and to be honest, I am entitled to unemployment support because I have paid into it. I worked from 16-29 in terrible jons that took advantage of (and ruined) my youthful exuberance. My NI and taxes which I am happy to pay because that is the price of living in a society (or at least us working/middle class people are told) However, it was a struggle to even get it. I don't know where these Conservatives think you can be handed a living from 'Benefits' and the 'system' by simply putting your hand out. My experience is the opposite. the job centre spend all their time trying to stop me claiming money I was entitled to/paid into instead of finding me work. yes, they wanted me off the books by offering me shop work and warehouse manual labour work even though I was a regional business manager when I was made redundant. too many people think it's al about the effort you put in. luck can be good and bad. OOOOOPs, I've shared too much. I might be berated and disparaged. I hope not. in this climate you can never tell. Yours, an honest poster....bracing myself for the online abuse.
Sounds a mirror of my own experience, same circumstances, same age. Graduated 2005, now a cleaner earning less in real terms than I did in the 90s. What the hell was the point ?
Now you can understand why we are in the mess we are in when you hear this lot. The lack of empathy is staggering,I voted Tory because mummy and daddy did about sums up this lot.
I'm still trying to get through to my eighty odd year old, Sun reading, working class, ex council house tenant, in and out of the NHS Tory voting dad.
It does seem to come down to that same family tribal mentality to some extent.
It pains me so much to know that my nan and grandad were voting Tory when the Tories were fighting tooth and nail against the establishment of the NHS and all the other post war advancements of the welfare state.
I can't help feeling uncle Rupert has had more influence on my old man than his own flesh and blood though.
I'm so desperate to try and wake him up so that I don't feel he mindlessly stuck the boot in with any votes he has left in him.

It helps to understand that for many people life isn't a search for happiness, it's a search for someone willing to tell them what they want to hear. Once these people have their comfort opinion externalised by another party they will stop the search and build defences around it. It's a form of keeping fear at bay, feeling secure, and it can be very successful if no particularly or immediately dangerous ignorance is held. It works until it doesn't, which lets it spread like any other behaviour.

One joker at 2:32 says if you:
1) Want economic competence
2) Want a government that is strong on law and order
3) Want a government that is very supportive of the police and armed forces
4) Want a government that supports the monarchy and our traditions
Then Conservatism is the only philosophy for this.
I'd like to remind him:
1) Highest tax burden and £2.3 trillion debt
2) Rape convictions at record lows
3) Still fewer police than in 2008, and armed forces figures have been declining every year since 2010.
4) The last prime minister lied to the queen, prorogued parliament, ripped up the ministerial code, defended corruption within his own party, broke the law, and promoted a sex pest.....
Yeah.... Conservatism.....
That’s because they ain’t conservatives, they are progressives.

I used to think that Harry Enfield’s “Tim nice but dim “ was a make believe character but after seeing this I realise that his ilk really exists! Some people actually care about society and become porters, teachers, care workers, fire fighters, refuse collectors etc and should be well paid to create the base for a stable society. Ultra rich people don’t need any more help; that’s why we have a trickle up economy! Since the 1970s ASLEF and RMT have fought well for decent wages for some of their members and even they haven’t kept up with inflation. Since David Cameron was prime minister the average UK person’s spending power has fallen compared to the French, Germans, Dutch, Australians, Canadians etc. and on average we would need to earn £8,800 per annum extra to catch back up according to IFS and OECD! These figures were compiled before the energy increases! A bloke said that his parents came to the UK with £500 so what! When did they arrive and what support / connections did they have? If it was the 1960s for example that would have been a lot of money! Just because most people aren’t banker or property developer types they seem to patronise them.
Did I really listen to someone say we can trust conservatives with the economy.
The concept that some conservative immigrants have, that their parents came to this country with 500 pounds and started a business, is utterly meaningless to the vast majority of people who cannot be self employed entrepreneurs. Some people have crucial healthcare jobs or work for the government. It is indeed the elderly and vulnerable that should be thought of by the richest within society.
it also ignores that theres no (legal) way his parents could come to the uk today
@@paulochikuta330 so true! Utterly delusional and unshamed hypocrisy.
I wonder if he will have the same view when his parents business goes to the wall because they can't afford the uncapped energy bills that will hit them very hard and very soon?
There is barely any context to his situation, in the same way someone fail to say they are from a rich family and say that they are "self-made" - utterly useless arguement. That said, I would like to know what their quality of life was during that time?
Ultimately, from a modern economy, people just want to live a dignified life, not having to seek a ridiculous social standing just to afford fuel, food and basic amenities.
This is exactly why the ex Home Sec, Priti Patel, created immigration legislation that would have stopped her own parents from entering the country. I got mine, fuck yours. It's horrific

The guy whose parents came over with £500 in their pockets is perhaps forgetting that they were possibly placed in social housing, received help with free healthcare, had welfare payments, etc, all of which are not in reality conservative principles. And the Labour Party is not anti enterprise it just wants more people to be treated fairly and not exploited.
And the young woman who says that most young people are concerned about climate change does not see herself as one of those people. Why? Is she missing something? How are her children going to feel when facing all the hardships to health and indeed life, brought about because of climate change going to view this clip of their mother, effectively washing her hands of others trying to make her children safer?

Notice all but 2 of the people gave individual solutions to a national problem, the naivety and ego to think people will not have tried those simple things. It's on the level of drunk down the pub no one listens to.
They are narcissists, covert psychopaths and they feel so bonded with the system (they're proud of it) . Their system and the social issues it creates is the result of calculated and coordinated efforts. The system has the same characteristics they possess narcissism, delusion and denial.
