Fun fact: during each transition of power for around 15 minutes legally speaking the monarch is the absolute ruler of the country

Hey did you know his dad was a toolmaker perchance?

Great vid! As a Brit (and fellow former Kanye fan) always love your videos. One thing I would say was the importance of tactical voting in this election. The Liberal Democrats got their best ever result, largely because Labour voters in seats they couldn’t win backed the Lib Dems, and vice versa. This was definitely an ABC election (Anyone But Conservatives). Labour winning a landslide on just over 1/3rd of the vote, shows how effective their targeting was, but not necessarily a wave of enthusiasm. The best quote I’ve seen is Labour support is ‘a mile wide, but an inch deep’. Still, it’s incredible to see the Conservatives suffer their worst result since 1761.

Loving finding this channel

I think you should've elaborated a bit more on the Tories' downfall. Basically when Cameron became prime minister in 2010 his main policy was the 2008 financial crisis. He decided austerity measures was how he would deal with it (whereas other countries increased spending) since then many issues have appeared such as the massive increase in NHS waiting lists and schools _literally falling apart_ (Ive also heard some hospitals are falling apart as well, but im still unsure if that is true) theres also the cost of living crisis and the housing crisis where everything got really expesnsive.` edit: oh and silly me, i forgot to mention all the scandals as well.

Labour Government will Win 2029 General Election 10 Years Government 🌹

Jeremy Corbyn deserved more coverage than just “the previous guy” and his purge from the party. Dude was the Labour opposition leader through 3 Tory leaders, received more votes then Starmer did and managed to retain his seat as an independent thanks to grassroots community support. Starmer is also a shift towards the corporate wing of the Labour Party from Corbyn’s community focused left-wing faction. Fine video but expected more after the Brazil video.

Not besides the point

Would you please considering doing South African Politics next 🇿🇦 ?

NEW ANDRE DUTRA VIDEO????? HELL YEAH

1:53 "some commentators" are wrong. EVERY general election is voted on with the leader very much in mind. With a handful of exceptions, people generally vote for the party rather than MP, and arguably they always have.

Here’s some more context for the PMs for those looking for it David Cameron brought in austerity, which proved an unpopular measure and benefitted the rich disproportionately. He had some socially liberal reforms, however, such as gay marriage May was a remainer who had to carry out leave, and her alliance with the ultra conservative dup meant her Brexit deal kept getting blocked Johnson was a right wing populist with a background of scandals. He was a bit like Nixon in that regard, and also like Nixon, he broke into traditional opposition areas. His three years proved contraversial, especially with his hateful statements, he resigned in disgrace after breaking his own lockdown rules, and appointing a known sex offender to be his party whip. Truss took the reigns backed by big business. She very clearly wanted to be the next thatcher, despite thatchers legacy coming under fire as the negative effects are seen as time goes on. She implemented long disproven Reaganomics against professional advice, which crashed the economy, causing her to resign in disgrace Sunak’s year and a bit in power was never able to recover from the Tory scandals. He never had the backing of his whole party, the right and the Center of his party often bickering. His millionaire background made him seem out of touch during a cost of living crisis. All contributed to labours victory Where are they now? Cameron went to the House of Lords, a bit like the senate, except it’s unelected, and some titles are hereditary. His one wasn’t, though. He was appointed. He was in Sunaks cabinet for a bit. May didn’t stand for another term as an MP in 2024, after quite a long career. Johnson resigned as an MP following yet another scandal before the 2024 election. Also in Nixon style he claimed a witch-hunt. Truss lost her seat as an MP in the 2024 election, and refused to make a speech conceding her loss. She’ll probably turn up in the states campaigning for trump given her gigs at CPAC. Sunak won his seat in 2024, but said he will resign as tory party leader once a replacement has been found.

One thing that separates British politics from Americans is the tendency for governments to change with a landslide. Usually governments will stay for a decade at least until a scandal and they get replaced in a landslide. They’ll then gradually lose that majority over the decade in power until their next landslide defeat. Rinse and repeat.

Based on Labour’s recent results, it seems they were able to pull nearly as broad support as the New Deal coalition here did in the 1930s, minus the white Southerner bloc here (not sure there’s really an analogous counterpart in the UK, they’d probably vote Reform if there were). In our case, the Democrats made it fine as a “big tent” party until about the 1960s. If not for Vietnam and the RFK assassination, I wonder if they could have held on for longer (though civil rights would have still posed a challenge to this coalition).

I’m just obsessed with presidential history now and I love that your videos feed my obsession

I followed this election deeply

Phenomenal. One book on UK politics that is an absolute must-read is "Why we get the wrong politicians" by Isabel Hardman. It explains so many of the intricate workings of parliament and how legislation actually gets passed, how what politicians want versus what their constituents want, and the various flaws. It also explains the basic workings of the UK government. It's basically all the knotty inner-politiking of the Carro Johnson books in one book in a British context and a third the size. You'll love it. Great video as always.

I’m so glad I’m not the only American with a major interest in UK politics

Any chance you could explain what the heck is going on in France (Great video btw)

Can you pls maybe do the recent South African🇿🇦 election and the subsequent Government of National Unity?🙏🏻

7:06 honestly imaging naming your child after someone in history you like. I should do that with my child, there was a German leader with a cool name.

considering recent events a video analyzing how life threatening emergencies or outright death affects American elections.

I hope the UK can recover🙏

Bernie WOULD have fucking beaten Trump. Ugh.

SODAAAAAAAAAAAA

would love if you did an overview of JFK like you did with Bush and Carter. anyway you got my sub, keep up the amazing work!

Nixon is easily one of my top 10 favorite presidents to read about, mostly due to how complex he is.

People only voted for Biden becase he wasnt trump

(Em 🇧🇷 português do Brasil) André, bom vídeo 👍 entretanto acho que faltou algumas coisas muito importantes e passei informações, em inglês, que são de interesse público independentemente se a pessoa gosta ou não do Lula, do Moro ou do Bolsonaro. Estão nos outros comentários(esses feitos em inglês) na sessão de comentários deste vídeo. Por favor os confira caso queira ter além de mais uma perspectiva, menções a fatos chave que tiveram impacto na política nacional brasileira, particularmente no caso Lula e sobre a atuação do juiz(hoje senador, eleito para a posição em 2022 com apoio do então Presidente Bolsonaro) e Ministro da Justiça do governo Bolsonaro, Sergio Moro. Detalhe: apesar da crítica severa a Bolsonaro e a Moro, não vou ficar defendendo o Lula. Acontece que esse caso particular foi muito mal desenvolvido e deturpado(embora não inteiramente, até pq outras figuras confessaram crimes de autoria própria).

Unfortunately in this(mostly very wellmade 👍)video some important stuff got glossed over: specifics on Lula's case. (Not trying to be disrespectful and sorry if this sounds entitled in anyway:) Please either do a following vid or recommend other insightful vids. BTW, I think it is highly relevant and key to point out that: Moro- The judge who imprisoned Lula, which immediately became Bolsonaro's minister of Justice upon Bolsonaro's inauguration, was found in collusion with prosecution; as minister of Justice, when this was leaked in the famous 'Vaza Jato'(which is a play on 'Lava Jato', combined with Vaza, which is portuguese for Leaked) scandal in mid 2019, even tried to establish a framework which would enable himself to possibly to destroy evidence(when they cought the 'leaker', who was a hacker who decided to contact journalists when he noticed the nature of what he has found, namely Walter Delgatti Neto, which I commend this particular decision), which the Supreme Court had to make a quick decision to make sure that wouldn't be possible. Again- Google Vaza Jato Intercept Brasil's leaks 2019 and how it help to reshape Public opinion's on Lula's imprisonment, including some opinions on the Supreme Court. Please do check these releases as they are also available FOR FREE and IN ENGLISH on The Intercept's site.

Você deveria fazer um vídeo sobre o potencial perdido do futuro do Brasil kkkk

Right off the bat, this is wrong. Bush Jr., Obama, and Clinton had all served in public office, and were also players in the political sphere. They were all institutionalists and fundamentally did not shake up politics to a noteworthy or unique degree.

Love the video! Make an individual video about every one of them, and one about collor too

Would you consider doing a similar video on South African politics ?

I don't think you was fair to the right

Talk about Brizola's history please!!!

Hey do you want to join and the KZfaq Gang is a group of KZfaqrs that holds elections every 2 years. It is Group of People That we Talk to each other on Discord, sorry I don't know What the Discords called. We will hold a vote for you if you agree, and the group doesn't really do anything else.

Cheers from a cearense! I hate both representatives of the political spectrum, and I kinda think it doesn't matter who we ellect as president if the people only pay attention to that; we need to take out the congressmans and senators that follows the "Centrão" policy. But again, it's not that easy. I continue to be, time and time again, desillusioned by brazilian politics.

5:28 fake , he did this joke before

One of the absolute worst presidents ever, he was so weak & useless.

You have no idea what you’re talking about in anything in this video, Obama IS the establishment. 😂😂😂

Go for it!!! I think you should tell the story

U dum if you think trump did that on purpose

incorrect George bush senior was only president for putting his arm around Olly North.

Thank you for just stating the facts and not making this excellent video, political. Great job!

24:52- he’s been thought of as a dope for a long time. See his first run for President for facts

23:30- spot on! History repeats

My friend who works at Publix saus he had him a customer one time and had no clue who he was until after the fact. He apparemtly paid with cash for cereal
