Gen Z MPs Sworn Into Parliament 

What were you doing at 22 years old?

I solemnly swear. No cap. The position of an MP is literally me fr fr. ✋

News flash: People are getting older. Imagine if the boomers stopped treating millennials and gen z like kids.

Wild that this guy will now be receiving a salary of £90000 at age 22

You now have individuals who know how to set wifi password in the parliament, unlike the US😂Be proud!

Can't wait to see Jacob Collier turn the House of Commons into a choir.

Good to see so many young people becoming MPs...we need a balance between the young and old.

It’s not fair why does the UK get younger people and the USA get old people in the government!

Would you like to swear? Fuck yeah

Having someone with a broccoli cut as a politician is wild.

"He...he's right behind me..isn't he?!"

Under UK law, the minimum age to become an MP is 18.

I solemnly swear I am up to no good 😂

I don't consider myself old at 36 but whenever I see people 10+ years younger than me in professional jobs, it does remind me of my age lol. Years really do fly.

The amount of people in these comments acting as though these adult candidates are children is ridiculous

Fantastic to have young people representing us. New ideas and openness is something many older politicians lack. Hopefully they will also be aware of their inexperience and accept advice from elder MPs and civil servants. If they do that they're exactly what this country needs.

People forget William Pitt the younger was only 24 when he became prime minister and an outstanding one at that

What a absolute Breath of Fresh Air into the house of commons after getting rid of tired OLD men and Women who are well past their use by date in terms of brining NEW ideas to the House of Commons! I wish them all the best of luck and just go and be your brilliant best at all you do in your new careers.... just a wonderful moment to see real generational change.

I do So Wish these Young People, NOT be corrupted by power, over their term, and mayhap choose to Walk away, and use their time to better inform others,

Not the old people getting bitter in the comments that these guys have achieved more than they ever will 🤣🤣

The fact only two of them swore with the Bible and the rest affirm'd instead. Really shows how religion nearly has no influence on my generation..

Of course the Scottish one looks the oldest.

They got jacob collier in parliament

Good to see Napoleon Dynamite taking his seat in the House of Commons 👍

During the election campaign, I actually met the Labour mp for my town (Rosie Wrighting ) and she’s showing promise to be a good mp.

The second guy has Ed Miliband's hairline.

I like how they provide both religious and non religious oaths to take. Nice to see governments actually evolving with the times

We got young people in a job for old geezers, finally

Apart from the fact that there are a bunch of youngsters, I’m honestly more impressed and excited by the fact that they are first given a choice to “swear or affirm”. Yet another thing the USA could take note of- British politicians are not required to have any religious beliefs nor swear on a holy book if they don’t want to. They don’t need to fake a faith to attract votes. And, if they do want t swear to their god they get to choose WHICH book and which god , without it being a big deal.

Lee Anderson looks miserable

There's no such thing as 'Gen Z' or any other of these silly 'generational' categories. They are just cynical marketing terms.

I think there is such a thing as too young, and too old, for government. Too young, no matter how intelligent, have not had the years of life experiences to acquire real perspective, and too old risks being out of touch with the reality of current times and of course cognitive decline.

Future father or mother of the house in that group.

I feel better already.

*"I do solemnly, sincerely, and truly declare that I will not play Pub G while in session and keep my sordid bedroom games out of TikTok so long I am in...Parliament?"* *Is there a "King George's Bible"?? And they blame Ole Man Biden...*

🎉🎉🎉🎉Congratulations...your channel best news & information provided ...good job...Congratulations..New Delhi..India..

Jacob is my new MP, and I was friends with him in my school years. Didn’t vote for him, I’m really dissatisfied with the stances and positions Labour have taken, I even asked him directly on social media if he agreed with the statement “Does austerity need to be stopped?” He honestly said “I don’t agree”! Unbelievable! After 14 yrs of it destroying this country, all the people who have fallen into the worst poverty because of it, that Labour do not take an anti-austerity approach to their plans for govt is insulting to all the people who are poorer because of it. It’s great to see young faces in parliament, but if their politics are not going to represent the country and its issues and fix them materially, they’re not worth shit.

Hong Kong would have had Gen z MPs at the Legislative Counil had they not made a fool of themselves when being sworn into the council. It's not that hard, surely.

"King George's Bible" Lol

King George's Bible? I've not heard of that one

Mad watching people my age wow !!! Time flys

This is what I hate about our system, most MPs you don’t know who they are what they believe in at the end of the day the party just pick someone in the area to be their guy or girl and that’s that, no offence but what does a 22 year old have to offer, they have experienced nothing. Being 22k and living the life of 100k salary and unlimited expenses isn’t the kind of experience we need running the country.

I could already tell Joshua Reynolds is going to be a piece of work 😂

Sorry for the incorrect information on this video, but according to his wikipedia page, Joshua Reynolds is in fact 301 years old this year.

didn't realise that Jacob collier had left music!

Skibidi Toilet Bill when?

Brilliant to see young fresh faces in parliament!

I like that they have choices - swear or confirm, on which holy book?

I’m certain the electorate had no idea who these people were and voted based on the party. Another reason for proportional representation.

Good luck 🇬🇧 🌹

Love the look on Lee Anderson face 😂

at least they're not younger than me😂

Based Keir Mather and Rosie Wrighting Swearing on the KJ Bible. Right on.

Yeah its almost like the way of getting in is being born into it

Thank you for great reporting. The discription helps a lot.

Why are the boys all so posh like tories but for Labour? We need to get a true party for working class people.

lol Maidenhead was May's seat

A new batch getting paid 90k a year doing F all what the general public ask them to do, nice work if you can get it.

The Lib Dem man was acting funny 😹😹

Gen z has such a negative connotation 😭

Gosh they are all so young. Hope they will learn fast with a good common sense and does not get carried away - our future is in their hands !

All posh snobs from rich families.

Scary how all these new MPs are younger than me. 😮

I don't think enough people understand that this has nothing to do with age. MPs are voted in by the people of their constituency. It is a democracy. So if you think it's wrong and that they should not be holding the position, then you're basically saying that your views matter more than the majority vote.

God bless the ones who swore on the Holy Bible ❤️

Yay we’re saved

U kinda hoped that I would hear that "Max Fosh"

God help us.

King George Bible… obviously hasn’t read it.

Joshua Reynolds. Your'e not in America mate.. 😆😆1:22

They guy from Cambridge looks lile a typical private school pupil and seems very detached from whats it like to live at the bottom and the struggles 😂😂

Even the new generation is becoming ambitios and hungry for power just as the old generation did

King Georges bible 😂

Another group of career politicians that will never know what it’s like to work for a living, straight to the top 5% of uk earners

What about the one for Shoreham ?

This may prove a difficulty for the govt. So many 'never had a proper job activist' types (of any political stripe) is going to be problematic, made worse by the fact that they are extremely young.

The girl at 2:06 just swore and didnt even know the book name despite the guy before her saying the right one, then again she is a labour mp

The Downing Street cat is more experienced than many of the new MPs

Lee doesn't look too impressed 😂😂

this is so cool

Weird that their oath is to the crown and not to the country. Feel like we should have reworded it after the whole crown execution thing we did..

I'm French and I didn't know the difference between swearing or affirming, very interesting indeed. So great that people have the choice!

I mean, good for them, have to start from somewhere. As long as they do a decent job.

was that perfect peter at the start

Surprised he didn't swear on a Starbucks receipt.

It’s inappropriate for people at uni to be earning 90,000 pounds + expenses at the taxpayer expense.

Oh god here comes my generation to mess it all up 😂

1:20 why did the guy raise his right hand unprompted, like some kind of American? smh.

Unfortunate theyre in with the labour cronies

"Point of order Mr. Sigma... "

When I was 22, I was just trying.

Yes, lot of worldly experience at 27, growing up rich and sheltered. Good grief.

Skibidi laws Skibidi Skibidi laws

He looks like that genz wojak who says fr bussin no cap

Some people here are 3 years older than me 😂

its not looking good this

What an appalling moment for our country

What on earth is this? Solemnly swearing allegiance to the king and his successors? What the fook? SURELY it should be allegiance to the people of the UK and Northern Ireland, not to the bloody king?

Fair play to them.

The people who hate these young kids for becoming MPs at a young age are probably jealous torys, who never made any success when they were young. Congratulations to these young people. P.S if your old enough to pay tax and to vote, then your voice in Parliament and thr country matters just as much as anyone else.
