  2. That lineup of the Tories that lost their seats lines almost perfectly with Sarah McLachlan's "I Will Remember You." 🤣

  3. Peterborough is lucky! They now have a 22yr old cambridge university science graduate as their £80k plus MP😂

    Ahh the real world experience from this champagne socialist labourite will be interesting.

  4. No one is surprised at the results. Truss gone. More than 10+ Cabinet Ministers gone! Conservatives wiped out completely in Wales. Worst results in almost 200 years. For 14 years the Tories treated Brits as peasant and serfs. Tories refused to listen to the people. Tories acted like true “blue bloods”…. BORN TO RULE OVER THE PEASANTS…. Tories oversaw the complete decimation and decline of almost all critical services including: hospitals, schools, aged care, housing, transport, energy, agriculture, environment, small business, child care, social services etc. Then they created the horrendous unchecked economic immigration crisis…. More than 4 million migrants…. Sunak leaves the BIGGEST govt debt in history £££2.7 TRILLION!!!! It will not be repaid for decades to come. Only time will reveal how (or if) GB recovers.

  9. They had a huge mandate and the goodwill of the country: they failed that mandate, turned their back on their voters and now starmer and his gang are in. The tories have absolutely no-one to blame but themselves.

  12. Spare a thought for hundreds of Tory MPs who are, through no fault of their own, now finding themselves out of work and are now making claims for Universal Credit

    Overnight, they have become jobless layabouts

    The irony 😉🙃

  15. All I have to say is, Sunak does not know the word of sorry.he as presided over the worst mauling the tories have ever had.this man is deluded, not sorry.everthing about his Premiership as been a disaster.sorry does not come into his vocabulary.he as ignored all advice given to him and ignored it all. So you deserved all you got.

  17. notice people on the right like suella are still in power , maybe you should have controlled immigration which you were voted in too do
