  • It’s a hilarious wet fart of a campaign. I am expecting Sunak to say ‘we have a plan’ countless times during tv debates and nobody cares because the plan doesn’t work.

    Satire isn't dead, it's become a reality show starring Rishi.
  • @HenryKatty
    Great video, The first $100,000 invested was amazing. But when you hit $300,000 it’s like smashing the glass ceiling! I cried.
  • @Wozza365
    The worst part is that at least 1 in 5 people in this country are looking at this campaign and the last 14 years and thinking "yep, looks good to me, more of that please"
  • @robertaries2974
    The palava with the trains yesterday was ridiculous. Its so obvious he's never used a train before and he was out of his comfort zone. Further highlighting how out of touch he is

    Tbh, its a tough position. Hard to call yourself a change candidate when youre leading a party that has been in power for 14 years, and been quite inneffective. Hard to call yourself stable when uoure not even the 1st unelected pm. Hard to look relatable when youre absolutely not. No charm, no cunning, no apparent awareness of what people want. I think he would have struggled at any time in history, but the way the world has looked the last few years, the poor little lamb was doomed from the start
  • @AnymMusic
    How tf does Sunak think this is going to go well? Dude became the personification of wet lettuce, and then said "hey young voters and parents, let's force you/your kids into the military if we win".
  • @bramharms72
    Little Rishi has failed at everything he's ever done. He's the definition of failing upwards. He'll end up as Galactic President before the decade is over.
  • @anoniemegamer
    At this point I'm convinced Sunak just wants to leave politics
  • @IvaylaGogova
    this guy is a even bigger joke than Johnson 😂
  • @hustlecrowe9440
    How the hell in 2024 can a government make people essentially be slave labor for them for an entire year? Given the cost of living crisis in England, people NEED to work paying jobs on the weekends.

    Tory Prayer: where there is love, let us sow hatred; where there is pardon, injury; where there is faith, doubt; where there is hope, despair; where there is light, darkness; where there is joy, sadness; where there is harmony, discord. For it is in taking that we receive.

    As Palpatine said: "Wipe them out. All of them."
  • @cupguin
    Anyone else remember Farage complaining about Obama interfering with UK domestic policy?
  • @_MrMoney
    We just gonna ignore how they put two clips of Ed Davey falling while paddleboarding? 😂
  • @Mr.DalekLK
    Sunak is making the same mistake as PiS in Poland. It locks itself in a bubble of its own voters and strengthens concrete voters, but does not try to gain the support of new voters.
  • Rishi Sunak giving his pathetic little speech in the rain while being openly heckled was really indicative of where the Torys (and Britain as a whole unfortunately) are right now. Good riddance to bad rubbish after 14 years of disastrous mismanagement
