YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

"We have now had three women Conservative prime ministers — assuming the most recent one counts of course." With a smiling Theresa May sat beside him, Tory MP Robert Goodwill makes a joke about Liz Truss's short-lived time as prime minister

King Charles III set out an election-focused UK legislative agenda at the ceremonial opening of Parliament, with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak focusing on a series of low-cost measures that lean heavily on right-wing politics as he tries to hold onto power in a nationwide vote expected next year.

Facing about a 20-point poll deficit against the main opposition Labour Party, Sunak’s government announced tougher sentences for criminals, more drilling for North Sea oil and gas and limited housing reforms in a pitch that aimed to draw dividing lines with Keir Starmer’s party.
