According to recent polls, the leading candidates for the next Tory PM (once Sunak succumbs to the inevitable sleaze/bullying/shagging scandal-i give him til Christmas, because I'm a generous sort of chap) are an interplanetary visitor with a bin for a face, and Larry the Cat. And I for one welcome our new overlords.

Binface - the jester in the court, the Joker in the pack, the novelty candidate to end them all .... but even in the midst of craziness there is serious good sense to be found, and Binface here proves it by voicing exactly what is wrong with our politicians these days: they crave power but do not understand how to use it.
Oh trust me, they understand how to use it. They know exactly what they will use power for. Did you not pay any attention to what was in the Kwarteng-Truss mini-budget? That's what they want. They failed miserably at getting any of it, but that's what they want.
A very important point made by Count Binface there one that sums up British politics. The PM walked into the highest elected office in the country with fewer votes than a joke candidate (though to be fair, the joke candidate is a more likeable, sensible and appealing candidate with a better understanding of the problems in the country than any actual current politician). And yet we still consider ourself a democracy. Perhaps if a party forms part of our Government then a change in their leadership should trigger an automatic general election. Choosing the PM or deputy PM should be a democratic process, not the benefits of a political subscription. Our last 4 PMs (May, Johnson, Truss and now Sunak) took office because of a minority of the public paid to do so.
Doesn't the job of Prime Minister come with a lifelong pension cumulative to that of other mandates, police protection, access to secret information and access to a high paid multinational counselling career afterwards ?
@@pepperroni6252 I didn't mean full access like when they are in power; In other countries, former leader still have access to confidential briefings. Which is why i asked, i don't know how much comparable it was in the UK.
Im sure that Count Binface, like all of us, is a regular citizen outside of his political persona. He understands our lives, he knows what we want. He wants to deliver what’s best for the nation, not the party. And I can respect that about him.
If he claimed he wanted to build a satellite cannon the people would probably support it because at least they know he'll follow through with his promise.
@@Peter_Turbo4 flawed democracy, the current first past the post voting system is the cause of all of this, a different voting method similar to those used in Europe like single transferable vote or ranked choice voting would be far more representative and would be far better for the British people. Alas the people are stupid and so voted against it in a referendum a few years back.
Our previous PM here in Australia, Mr Scott "Scomo" Morrison, had that sort of attitude the Count described Truss and Sunak of having. Like one of our best internet comedian/Warhammer 40k enthusiasts Jordan Shanks said, it was like the ultimate school captain badge; he just wanted it to show off and was happy for other people (or multibillion dollar corporations) to run the country for him.
Why cant my countries politics be this light hearted and fun. Like I know there is serious stuff going on over there too, but in comparison, man I wish this was the current state of politics here, at least I would have to worry about a possible civil war coming
Come on, Mr Binface. High time you declared intergalactic war on the Tories and vaporized the evil smug bastards. I've already got my popcorn, my home-made bin-helmet, and my Jeff Wayne's soundtrack all lined up and ready to go.
I'm staggered Liz Truss, in her inauguration, didn't just say "oh my god! thank you all for chosing me as ya'll's PM BFF of England! Such an honor, I'm literally dying, best summer ever! Lmbao####"
quite frankly, had she had such audacity, I would personally have given her my undying, unconditional support. if this country's going to hell, and us with it, then the ride may as well be entertaining.
@@defectivepikachu4582 you got the "Bumshell" Boris Johnson as the lord binface calls him in the chair, and that lady that only lasted 40 days i would say you guys meme the elections as much as anyone else in this day and age
He's a Tory. Not only is he _already_ bought from the first year at Eton to the illicit-but-made-legal cons that _got_ him his money, HE IS A TORY. All Tories care about is *hurting* people north of London and ignoring people west of it! The Irish, being to the northwest, receive both barrels of their serial killer attentions.
Me too. Because I was him. I made that name famous and then an abysmal American film producer claimed ownership of it and started trying to pass himself off as me. So I upgraded to my true (legally safe) form.
@@realcountbinface Apparently my advanced sarcasm wasn't transmitted properly over the internet. Can't blame you obviously, as you only see half of what's around you.
Until he died, the longest serving party political leader in the UK was "screaming Lord Such" of the monster raving looney party. Ironically, a good few of his policies deemed looney at the time, became law in due course e.g. votes for 18 year olds ( used to be 21).
Europeans have a right to self determination and to be ruled by Europeans. Not Asians. Just as was demanded in India. Unless you think India needs diversity and lots and lots of Europeans to survive ^__^
