I first started watching politics in around 2013 when Cameron was in power. So bizarre to see the last of the Tories.
I remember as a child when David Cameron came in after Labour. Now I’m 27 next week!
My first experience of politics was watching my mum cry and swear after Cameron got re-elected, lol
I remember when Cameron took over from brown and I believe I was 10. I’m 25 next month…..
❤Finally free at last. Free at last
I remember when Thatcher came into power and I’m 56.
I’ll run next time
You’ll probably do a better job
@@darryldonnelly5363 The lettuce shall do a much better job than any Torys
They’re fine. Pockets full. Off they go……
It was never about that for him
Kir starmer is worth 7 million not billion but still celebrity rich
😂absolutely CORRECT. Back to mansion or California.
For the PEOPLE back to the cost of living CRISIS.
His pockets were full long before he became an MP. Why would he bother with all the s**t and heartache of politics?
The guy is richer than the king. You think he cares about a few million? He did the job because he cared about the country 😢

WHEN THE CURTAIN FALLS IT’S TIME TO LEAVE THE STAGE
I think his wife is wearing the curtains
And quickly please
All curtains, upholstery, carpets need replacing. The smelly of oily, greasy and burnt spicy smelly goes everywhere. Bet like typical tenants didn’t even on the extractor fan.
You pinched that from John Majors last speech in 1997.
Yes absolutely
We all knew he was on his private plane ✈️ back to LA. 😊
❤exactly.
Yep, scurrying off to hide in California from his war crimes
This was election of envy and racism.
@@parshuramshakti2934LOL you are insane
@@parshuramshakti2934 just recovered from being a smelly hindutva state mate
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out
He has people who open and close doors for him..
I wish it does though, no hate
Is he taking the £40 billion worth of useless PPE he bought with him ?
He sold it all back to his PPE supplier friends for a huge discount of 50%….so probably closer to £60 billion
Utter nonsense. It was £673m for defective PPE not suitable for any use. It’s recorded in the accounts. In addition, £750m for “excess” inventory that passed its expiry date and is held for resale or donation. What is it with all the misinformation?
@@mountainbritish5777you buy an item for £1 and sell it for 50p but receive £1.50? Did you study mathematics with Diane Abbott?
40 billion!?
No just his bank card
He doesn’t give af. Never has and never will
Rubbish. You can’t equate ‘caring’ and ‘nice words’ with managing a Country in all its complexity. Starmer is about to find out it’s not as easy as he believed it to be!
Yh but now days who does
Why would he?
Tories never do
He shafted the entire country and loads of his colleagues. He doesn’t give a fuc* about the UK..
It’s ok Rishi you’ve made you and your wife a fortune at the expense of the tax payer, your work is done.
Now you can relax and enjoy the fruits of your labour.👍👍👍👍
Apparently they have a shared fortune of over £650 million.
USA bound….
@@Jesterssonyes because her Dad started one of the worlds most successful companies!
You mean the fruits of our labour
@@christopheradderley6902 I know.
Though I loathe the Tories, the Rightwing and all it stands for this was a gracious Speech.
For sure. What with all the bitterness in politics lately it was nice to see him acknowledge Starmer and wish him well
Bizzare to see him talk like a compassionate normal human. Where was this man the last year or so 😂
it was actually I’ll give him that
ChatGPT
Because he’s been humiliated, pride goes after a fall.
You told us to judge you on your pledges, consider yourself judged
You have been weighed in the balances and found wanting.
Hmm the inflation is half of when he took office and the economy came out of recession and actually grew. What promises are you talking about?
Knights take lol
Tale
He doesn’t care, he’s minted😂
Make sure you get your sky box mate, don’t want you living in hardship.
😂😂
Why be so mean
😂😂😂😂

Translation. “I’m now more wealthy than before, anyway seeya”
He was always wealthy regardless before or after. And Rishi and his family will always remain wealthy for his generations to come

@@neelamacwan7670 precisely. They are wealthy regardless and that’s perfectly acceptable if it’s white footballers but not when it’s people of colour and immigrants.
@@christopheradderley6902 White footballers aren’t the heiress of billionaires and aren’t married to the prime minister dafty
@@neelamacwan7670he said more wealthy
Sunak will be credited as the Indian billionaire, who became the unelected PM and singlehandedly made the Tories extinct. Still, it matters not to him, it’s about personal aggrandisement and social accolade that he was once the UK PM. After diner speeches’ are now £100K.
That’s a bit too much credit to him regarding what his predecessors did. A political party consists of more than one person alone. They all deserve their share of the responsibility, don’t you think?
@@gammalgris2497 exactly. The real power is always behind the throne. Rishi was always a manchurian candidate.
Liz Truss and Boris have done their bit.
And the rest.
He will be richer now with his ex PM payment so envy of richness voting has made him better off. So he is more wealthy now. How short is your memory that you forget the mess made by Boris, Liz Truss, Covid a, furlough and Brexit, if he hadn’t succeeded these useless previous PM he would have done great things. You people don’t deserve an intelligent man as your PM.
He’ll now go off with his millions while we’re all left in disaster thanks to he and his party.
Take accountability, you can get wealthy if you truly set yourself towards it. The people in power certainly rig things against you, but don’t let it stop your success
Oh shut up!
@@SavingPrivateBob I’m not just talking about money. The country is falling to bits.
@@JurassicRodHe fulfilled his promise of halfing inflation and the economy came out of recession and grew when noone expected it to.
For fxxk shake he didnt….thr Bank of England did@@sunnybossynarks
Does this mean his wife has to pay tax now?
No, she wont as she will go back to India or California
😂😂😂😂😂 I like your answer@@iaf010
Are you nuts, do some research 😂 they are beyond your so called law ,they are the one s who pulls the strings of power,
All millioners will leave UK and soon UK will be like Venezuela, but with US support you beggars may survived.
Where they should all go
i mean. it was not just sunak’s fault. its the entire conservative party since brexit. how embarassing for a country to go through the amount of leaders we have all from the same party over the past few years. It shows that its not just the prime minister, but the party itself that is an issue.
Cameron and his friends started mesing up the country long before
The ship was sinking long before him.
@@lukasmadrid1945 the rot started with Blair
@@theporkiestpie8416eye and it will go under to the bottom of the sea now labour are in
@@covfefe1787 true, and thatcher. It just gets worse and worse
It’s great to see a humble man handing over power without any sense of malice, pride or prejudice. His comments on Kier Stamer were kind, professional and considered. This speech highlights the difference between someone like Donald Trump who refused to accept defeat and a gentleman like Rishi Sunak.
And no, I’m not a Conservative. Just making an observation.
Trump 2024, 😂😂😂
@@indygolf777
Slow news day, Ivan? 🤡
neat observation, i thought so too
It was the perfect way to hand over a government.
It’s Biden that needs to resign…this is an Englishman speaking.
As an American it’s amazing to see a politician resign while taking responsibility for their actions and apologizing to their people. Meanwhile wishing the next administration the best of luck. I’m so jealous right now.
Stealing billions and gracefully apologizing . So nice of him 😍 . There is no a better politician. This is what people want. Seriously????!!!😅
So easy to say a person “stole billions” in the internet.
You’re very naive. They don’t mean what they say.
@@generalseb it is easy to say the obvious
