As of today (21/04/2024) there are 622 comments, so many of which are examples of people who have ZERO idea what this presentation is really about. As a prerequisite to leaving a comment, they should correctly answer "How many members are there in the U.K. Parliament?". One dimwit even wrote "I hate politics", as if there is some worth in completely disengaging - Move to Russia, it is much simpler there. Vote for Putin, because that's the only choice. There is Alexie Navalny, but...wait, oh, he was an opposition figure, but sadly died while in custody... Perhaps there are many examples of idiotic political decisions, but this is a representative democracy. AND DON'T SPLUTTER THAT IT ISN'T, THAT JUST SHOWS THAT YOU ARE POORLY EDUCATED, OR WILFULLY IGNORANT. If it doesn't return the result you want, then enter politics, vote for your preferred candiidate, or STFU. 1) The presentation was by Al Murray, but the upload was by the College. 2) Nasty pieces of crap who claim that he is part of the "Liberal Elite", are embittered low-achievers, or just plain nasty. Hateful with no real agenda other than to despise and snipe. 3) It is not supposed to be a comedy routine. It is a thoughtful journal on an entry into Constituency politics (we do not have a presidential system, despite the popular misconception). 4) Paying attention - most UKIP, and BRexit voters are incapable - shows that he lampoons the Labour pledges by comparing them to the PRE-EXISTING back-of-a-fag-packet pledges of FUKP. Yes, he highlights Farage's increasingly bitter and desperate swipes, but A) How many UKIP fanatics can name more than five UKIP Parliamentary candidates,? and B) Now that we have left the E.U., how many have benefitted from that democratic bombshell (£350m PER WEEK, sill just a stupid promise, with none of the leave-voters seeking proof that they were not duped by the REAL ELITE - Eton/Public Shools/Big Business.) 5) His hesitance is refreshing. He is not in character, the person here is not just a joker, and a prankster, it is a real man who has notes, but is not trying to entertain paying customers.

Succinct...but very interesting and informative talk!

Pumping away.... These two love it

Ian is a national treasure.

I set here in the library parking lot and quickly your monologue slowed my pace as I was enthralled with your experiences of thought and inspiration ... Anyway, I'm walking in happier and inspired to dive deeper into the same likeness~~~> Thank you for that!!!

Brilliant…love the Robert Maxwell Peter Cook story, what a great boss he was…Peter…not Maxwell…!

You are correct but Ian Hislop is a much easier guest.

This man should be on the House of Lords!despite what he says abou Lords!

even this self aware speech is a self jerk off from the non council estate brigade who have much more of a chance despite what they will tell you

Ian is such an intelligent man. I hope he has contributed to a sperm bank!. ;-)

Ian Hislop in conversation with Helen Lewis 0454am 27.12.23 break like the wind - the sister rag sank like a wet fart.... according to sources. and as much as i think it's a complete load of tosh and upholds the b.s we should loathe... one does find oneself wandering back to see how things are getting on.... if only it's a read thru on the WHSmith shelf or a quick gander at the front page... it hasn't been ROFL for a long long long time.....................

"Sadists forget that they are human beings and forgot that women were too."

"She is scarcely present at all."

"The sadist looks and talks just like a normal citizen."

"Deep seated hatred focused on women."

"Showed no remorse."

"Sadism is a part of a continuum of male sexuality."

It's their frickin curse they're throwing on me. I don't live in pain. I don't live in sadness. However, under their regime we all will.

A definition of sadistic is a father knowingly sacrificing a daughter who has confronted him with the issue that he swears he knows nothing about. Playing music like "Worthy is the lamb that was slain" and sitting there in silence while it all goes down. Sadistic.

oh mate, I started laughing and couln't stop, neither you or the beard are invited for Chrismas dinner There would be nothing left? Chtisttmas dinner, go fuck off and eat someones else, Ah lads II feel bad now., I'm not so mean.but you would just destroy christmass dinner There would be nothing left? We would hike to eat too? Great good news, the cat 'Molly' is returned to me, fairly grumpy and missing six molars, but considering I dug her grave already, sure that she wasn't coming home alive , I'll take that trade ,she's only about 18, I'll knock a few years out of her yet! I have to laugh, up at four in the morning because I wanted to be in Dingle by nine, Molly comes in, drops a rat but he's fairly lively, she sat back when I went mental trying to get this rodent out of the house, it was funny in retrospect. not at the time. Fuck sake!

Cambridige Analytica does exist but this is hilarious, people will say anything

PASSING WIND

AL MURRAY FOR PRIME MINISTER

I’m related to him

ไหนว่าจะไม่หลอกกัน อิๆ🎉🎉you❤❤

I hate Al Murray and his companion

The guvnor the greatest ❤🎉🎉😢😮😅

I've always thought a great song will always work with a single vocal and a piano or guitar accompaniment. Is it the same with comedy, if it works coming of the written page does that mean it must be good comedy?

The Spartens with Allies were way more than 318. Even those who chose to remain had more than 318.

Where is St Edmunds Hall ❤❤❤❤❤

25min 48 secs “As a Jounalist if you’re a scottish nationalist as an English person you’re not allowed to have an opinion on this -I get this all the time” Well if you’re getting it “all the time “ have you ever asked yourself why?.The political dynamics up here is light years different from down south e.g.1 there is actually no party by the name of Scottish Labour registered as a political party -it’s an accounting unit….Starmer said 3/52 ago 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿(🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿)Labour could NOW differ from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Labour but only at Holyrood level -so who’s been calling the shots on the MSP labour benches for 23 years? Labour policy Cttee the unelected NEC.2) a respected U.K. journalist ?polly Toynbee? Wrote an article for weekend Guardian about Scotland - it was outdated ,incorrect lazy journalism -quoted 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿higher drug deaths &SNP failure but completely failed or deliberately didn’t put it in context .Under Labour Glasgow had the accolade of the city in Europe with the highest level of deprivation-no wonder people took to drugs ;every time ScotGov. tries ti implement changes they’re stamped on by U.K. Gov and also omitted drug policy is under the ægis of the 🇬🇧home office .We’re tired of ignorant out of date stuff by journos the pure hate & vitriol from the English dominated MSM. And 3) anti `Scottish racist lies from Mordaunt who mentioned ⬆️rat infestations and Victorian diseases rising in Glasgow blaming ScotGov conveniently not mentioning the 4 English cities with higher rates By all means write about us but if you haven’t done due diligence or some fieldwork and your comments are incorrect ,outdated et be expected to get it back at you in spades

In group? Establishment? The difference between this and Lewis's treatment of Jordan Peterson.

Blooming eck. It hasn't changed.

Wow.! Pub landlord! You've just proved to me what another middle class Wanker who enjoys taking the piss out if the real working class of Britain. 17 million of us , in a so called Democracy voted in a freedom of speech... You Globalist Neo libralist Dick. What a cunt.

Gingerigenes !

My money's on Helen Lewis taking over from Ian Hislop at Private Eye. I wonder if in 10 years someone will ask her the original set of questions she just re-asked him?

Hallo, I am chandragupta arsule from India in pune . So first one thanks for share this in formatio . but mis one of my question which book i study for law in oxford university . So please answer my comment please please! For law !

Could Hislop tell the public how much of taxpayer's money it cost to go to Washington to interview a known PEDOPHILE ( James Alefantis ) Not a good look now eh Ian

It weas not guilt that made voters for Brexit so angry. It was people in the media like you, Ian, who smeared people as stupid just because they disagreed with you. It might not be funny, but at least get your facts right before cracking a joke.

I'm watching this yet another 10 years later

Hello 👋 I'm srilankan student this video is very interesting

He wants the moon on a stick he does.

VERY HANDSOME JESUS!!!!!!

Hi this video is quiet informative..thanks for the same. Didnt quiet get the company name or website you use to prepare for the TSA exam... can u let me know

Rambling crap, stick to comedy don't try and be smart you look anything but.

Helen Lewis is brilliant. I came here after watching a very uninspired person interview Ian Hislop and this was the opposite: a smart, well researched, humorous conversation that leaves you wanting more. You can tell Ian is enjoying it too. Well done!!

Elvis Presley's let himself go

Read Private Eye. Best news magazine on the market...

The Maxwell story is marvelous. Sounds like Cook.

Terrific work, Dr. Rutherford!
