HIGHLIGHTS: Liz Truss faces questions over mini-budget in PMQs 

Boris was ok

Don’t you recall Blair or Brown? If you think Boris is bad, you can’t imagine the car crash labour would bring.

@@nothingtosee7718 do you not think it’s time to let them have a go? Baring in mind I’m no labour supporter. I reckon it’s time for a change and see what happens, if it goes tits up it goes tits up

@@douglaswilliams9657 boris should be doing jail time for genocide with the way he dealt with the pandemic and you think he was ok ? With attitudes like that it’s no wonder these tories keep getting voted in

@@nothingtosee7718 people like you would still be complaining about Labour being in charge if tories sunk the UK to the centre of the Earth.

Everything except Brexit ...

My washing shrank in the wash today. It's Putin's illegal war in Ukraine that caused that as well.

She always brings up Putin when she is creating a mess on herself

I think all world leaders are doing that to be honest. I'd say it's 40% Putin the rest is companies and such taking advantage of what Putin has done, which I guess means that Putin is the root cause lol

Well, she is a Tory when it is ever the Tories fault. At least they can't blame the EU now.

The energy price cap is the new 'fastest vaccine rollout'

First time?

@@slipperydouglas8263 lol live the pirates meme. But i guess as an American it’s nice to see other countries’ politicians are just as full of it.

That’s because she is a snake 🐍

Price cap it's a cap but you can still get charged more then the cap if you use more so its kinda messed up nothing to be proud of dizzy lizzy

And we will pay it back as tax payers in the long run anyway. The alternative was a windfall tax on the energy companies who've made a fortune from a war - but that went against right wing dogma (and Tory donors).

The energy cap is a slogan and a scam. My new estimate per annum for electric is 2200 and 2600 for gas. It was 1500 a year ago.

@@stevep4131 It went against Truss and Rees Mogg's personal financial interests, as well.

@@JupiterThunder also less taxes from the lower spending after all the raised mortgages from the interest raise hike

Our home annual bill is around £3600. Her claim that nobody will pay more than £2500 is a blatant lie. She used a lie to answer a question that wasn't even asked of her. That's how low and despicable this government is. They think people are mugs.

💯

Bingo

CRAZY how THE RICH and the SUPERRICH are unhappy with HER CHOICE to care and support the poor and the middle class during this time of war in Europe.

This is the real truth sadly...

Wolves in sheep's clothing!

High five my friend

That is 💯 true!!! Unfortunately if you become homeless what do you need money to heat your home??

Could be?....

Yes, good riddance!

It won't be long. She's extremely unpopular in her own party

@@stevec6427 but where would they go next. Unfortunately it would be like a turky voting for Christmas.

😅🤣

She's neither, she's a WEF installed puppet just following the script. As were the other nominees put forward, all from the WEF "Young leaders programme", we were fully shafted whoever they decided to put in power.

She is trying to destroy the economy so she and uncle Klaus can bring in digital currency they will control every penny you spend and every move you make. WEF =Build Back Better you will own nothing and be happy . We never voted for any of this.

@@JupiterThunder Really, how? Actually just read that the IMF are saying that the mini budget will give UK growth. Maybe Truss's real problem is messaging and that the Chancellor didn't publish details.

@@JupiterThunder ok Lizz

I think it's probably more complicated than tax breaks for the wealthy

'Trust me, I am a Politician', I am here to USE you to MY advantage.

Unfortunately it might sink the country, let's hope the Tories are voted out soon.

The tories are up to their necks in water in the titanics boiler room. They are sinking, they just do not see it yet.

Despite wanting rid of the tories, I'd still rather we had had someone more competent to lead us right now. No political ambition is worth seeing this kind of damage being done to the ordinary people of our nation.

Sunak would have done it just as well. He'd have given a hundred million to his mates on day one, been outed on day two on a open mike saying "the plebs are so stupid... Let's squeeze them for their last penny"

Nope. Dumb comment

fucking preach

We havevtge electoral congress 🇺🇸😆👍

What she basically said was "by devaluing the pound so that the debt is worth less, and so are everybodies salaries and savings"

Do you seriously believe we could get £150billion from a windfall tax on the energy companies. Nowhere near. If you listen to Starmer though he mentions it all the time. Their worldwide profits not the profits made in this country. Its called misleading the public - lying in my book. More to the point do you want to tax the pension funds that invest in the energy companies. As well as the thousands of other individuals who have invested their life saving in these companies. Why should any individual be taxed because the rest of us are a bit skint. I think what the government have done to ease the cost of living crises is generous. Trouble is it just adds to the national debt to pass on to our grandkids. Hoping it becomes a lesser percentage of GDP with growth. The unemployment fugure is now only 3.5% the lowest in the G7. Where are they going to get employees to fill any new vacancies. Hopefully from the 9 million unemployable and not from abroad. I won't hold my breath though.

That's actually not true. The reason energy prices in the UK are so high isn't about privatisation verse public, the expense would still be there. It's two core things. An infrastructure problem that goes back to Thatcher and was never fixed in all the time and bipartisan governments since, meaning the UK doesn't have storage so energy is bought at real time market prices, where far to much is reliant on imports of gas. And those imports where traditionally from Russia, but because of these stupid fruitless and pointless sanctions the UK isn't buying from Russia anymore. Neither is the EU. That's an awful lot of combined demand that's suddenly hit the market and has to be made up from other suppliers. That pushes up supply prices and is at the core of inflationary pressures to cost of living expense. Truss is a dumpy empty headed sow, but energy prices have nothing to do with privatisation.

No we need society to stop wanting to be governed by this dated broken system. Labour nor anyone else is going to fix this. It's been Q E to the moon and back since Nixon took us off the gold standard and now the reality has hit home.

The real poverty among middle classes will set in nicely before the next election….Tories will be finished for a generation.

😂..reminds me of an old badge I loved to wear... "If you can keep your head, when all around are losing theirs, perhaps you have misunderstood the situation". Thanks to her, energy is no longer an issue, you'd need a home for that.....the property crash coming will be the worst ever,but la la la "the energy the energy the energy". That dress...was it so she could blend into the seat,so no-one would see her ?.

Totally agree with you

GET THE TORIES OUT OF POWER

The fairy tale story of the Titanic Starring Cruella de Vil as (Liz Truss ) Sponge Bob Square pants as (Mr Hunt) Scooby Doo as ( Kwasi k ): 🪓❌ The list will go on whist she stays on 😆😆😆😆, Cruella de vil just got started 🤓

A nice one it would make too 😁

😂😂

😂

🤣

and then closed.....

'Trust me, I am a Politician', I am here to USE you to MY advantage.

but they fixed the energy prices... that would mean your disabled dad wasn't able to pay his energy bills 6months ago either... or is he saving money for his mortgage by turning off the heating? sorry I really had to do sarcasm here, I completely understand his position, we are as screwed as he is

All MP's claim their energy costs on expenses, they don't pay them

Why? She's yet another WEF puppet like all the candidates were, we were screwed either way.

How she didn't win from the beginning was beyond me. She was the most sane out of all of them and had a chance of actually being a threat to Labour. Instead, they chugged a cup of cyanide tablets.

They are all sick. Painfuly self conscious when the camera pans to them, but also totally away of who the camera is on at all times. Its all a game for the camera. Politicians fear the camera and the press, not the electorate.

@@HakunonMatata What threat?

@@HakunonMatata Because Liz is a stooge to allow boris back in.

she has the audacity to claim that she is saving families money by putting the price cap to £2500 when a year ago it was half of that. what a joke she is.

Wait till Labour get in if you think it’s bad now

How are people not getting it yet, Covid was released to kick start all this green agenda BS rolling, incoming digital id's and cashless society.

What she always does, nothing ! 😆

Other MP's within the conservative party

No point cuz dumb people will still vote for conservatives

@@30026971 yes we know but that’s not how it should be because she’s a disgrace that allowed untreated sewage to be pumped into our sea’s which explains the mess she’s continuing to make with this government now

Tory party members but mostly not tory MP's

@@30026971 Tory MP's voted for Sunak . It was almost a quarter of the Tory members . Approx 10,000 people have dumped Thick Lizzie on us.

General strike or a poll tax riot works.

We march on Westminister

firstly wait until there is a party that will carry out the wishes of the electorate

Sign a petition. I think someone already started one. “The House of Commons is to debate a 575,000-signature petition calling for an early general election. The three-hour debate will be held on 17 October and a government minister will have to attend to make the case for allowing the parliamentary term to continue.” The Independent

Oh, I think he does.

Hope, in reality, is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man. Friedrich Nietzsche

No Stu, this happens every four generations in the UK. There is a total breakdown of the institutions and then it re-newed again. In the last cycle was World War II, and Hitler was breaking London. But it not has bad as the last cycle for Britain.

it’s fine with truss in charge, there is no hope

@@johnbutcher2587 you need help more than me it seems

want =/= need

Don't know where you're from, but certainly empathy seems to be in short supply. Hope we can return the favour when necessary. Liz Truss may be a source of your enjoyment but not those in need whose lives she is making a misery.

@@smashtthesnobsfun he’s being satirical. Doesn’t mean he lacks empathy at all.

@@graceomalley4 In this case your attribution of satire ( a grandiose term for what is mere sarcastic disdain) makes not a whit of difference. I hope this is not beyond your comprehension. A cheap joke at the expense of people who are in real trouble and worried sick remains just that: a cheap joke, lacking empathy or any real value. Of course it betrays a lack of empathy.

​@@smashtthesnobsfun I have a lot of empathy for the suffering of innocent Ukranians, empathy for mankind in general that is suffering from this man made chaos.. So stop judging based on a comment.. Keep your grand commentary for those who you really need to be opposed...

​@@smashtthesnobsfun you've done enough already!

'Trust me, I am a Politician', I am here to USE you to MY advantage.

@@JupiterThunder isn't it a pity that there are hours and hours of footage on here exposing your ignorance.

Hardly unique is it 😂😂

Rent is more expensive than mortgages. Why would they want to rent to people who can't afford to pay?

good luck with that, everyone i know is 1. living with parents/family or 2. in HMO's, who can afford to rent these days?

This is a dumb comment and 100% wrong.

"You'll own nothing and be happy", Klauss Schwab.

You will own nothing and be happy . Everything will be rented including the clothes on your back.

She's accelerating the decline.

She's much worse then Johnton.

@@csharpe5787 To be fair she has a plan to put into action, unlike Boris who sat on his hands an d whistled and left us with a ticking time bomb. Unfortunately, Truss' plan is to speed up the timer and add extra explosives to the pile...

Only partially true. The Brexiteers and the Brexit voters started this mess, not just Boris Johnson as PM.

Stop crying you lefty morons.

Don't worry Ian, your history shows that you go through a total break down every four generations in Britain. The last cycle was Hitler literally breaking down London in World War II. As far cycles go you going through a more kinder and sweeter break down of your system this time.

He certainly seems to be in his groove these days (Boris was certainly the warm-up act). Stay the course Kier and you've got the next general election (the opposition are lining it up very nicely for you thankfully).

😂😂😂

.she should certainly return to the mothership immediately.

What’s going in Japan 😅

No Eve, you going through another "4th Turning". Every four generations the UK institutions starts to breakdown and is renewed. In the last cycle it was World War II, and Hitler was literally breaking down the city of London. But again you renewed your self this is very sweet and mild form of renewal as things go.

If only she had... it's a sticking plaster at best that fails to address the underlying problems (e.g. dependencies on non-renewables and imports, private ownership over a natural monopoly of an inelastic good)

Read your Dickens. Ebeneezer Scrooge is an allegory for a tory government with a majority..
