Everything this man said screamed that he is only interested in looking out for people. His bias is that he's biased in favour of individual people, especially vulnerable people. If someone like him was running the country we could be in a much better place than we are now

[@chippyminton8711]

I've always jokingly said why is it that all the shop owners on the High St are usually the ones involved in county council or local council politics ? Some are some aren't but you can bet your bottom dollar there are some good advantages to being in the same room as other connected businessmen/women. It's why the big players on the world stage meet regularly to discuss how they can make an extra buck from what they sell, they would start the same biased campaign the last Labour leader had to endure , Martin would be discredited every time he popped his head above the parapet. There are so few good people in politics any more !

This the hero who sent every out to the cheapest energy supplier, nearly all of them had no experience in energy supply, many have now been shown to have made dubious payments and enriched their selves, he has made no criticism of the energy regulator who allowed any and everyone to become an energy supplier, clubs even councils tried their luck hoping to get rich, and lewis told everyone to jump on the cheapest offer, never questioning if the offer looked too good to true, the result we all pay more for energy for all these failed companies.

[@arstulex]

@@TheManwithaview This is pretty much it yeah. You can go in with the most honest intentions, but you WILL hit a point where you either sacrifice your integrity or you fail. Your opponents will happily play dirty to get the edge on you, so you will need to do the same to keep up. The people who benefit from corruption are going to see you as a threat and sabotage you, so you must find a way to keep them happy (which basically means continuing that corruption). Your own allies will betray you if they see your honesty as a weakness/liability, voting you out. The best example I can think of is taxation. It's easy to say "just tax the omega rich more", but when you do that you just make it more appealing for those corporations to take their business (and their tax money) to whatever country is willing to slide them a better deal. Just like that you'll find that you must give in to _some_ corruption to keep those people happy and willing to keep their businesses, jobs, and taxes within the country. I think the idea that everyone who aspires to become an MP is going in with the intention to make things worse for everyone is naive. I'm willing to bet the overwhelming majority of them went into it with genuine intentions to improve the country, but ended up being corrupted (it's called 'corruption' for a reason, because it spreads like that). This is why I try not to fall into the mindset of "politician bad" like most people seem to, because I know that realistically I'd probably be no different if I were in their seats.

He advises people of facts about the law. Shame that most of those people around that table are not as useful to people trying to navigate their way through everyday economics.

[@kanedNunable]

yeah but for a tory, being consumer focussed is the opposite of what they are. they are big business, banks and oligarchs. consumers are the bottom of their list

[@mtailor5529]

Absolutely correct. Why would anyone want to question him, when everyone already knows what he stands for? Those that question him are the ones that have something to hide or have an agenda themselves.

[@liammeech3702]

tbh there's practically a cult of personality around him, wanted or not.

[@margaretknight2207]

If only we had politicians in Westminster with a fraction of his integrity, interesting how you don't see Martin Lewis's name on the honours list despite the tireless work he does!

[@johokeen1]

Consumers will always need some one lucid, gutsy and knowledgable like him to fight for us. If only our government has many more people of his calibre, Brexit fiasco or not, this country wouldn't be in this much dismal mess. Even now, I still cannot fathom the Truss/Kwatang debacle... Thank you for sharing this video.

Whoever told him he can't say bollocks is legally wrong, Parliamentary Privilege dictates he can.

[@daboy12s]

that's because 95% of what's said in Parliament is absolute bollocks!

[@ethzero]

So not be able to say bollocks, is bollocks.

[@adrianbarker1546]

@@ethzero 😆

[@callumbriggs3372]

That part made me laugh. He asked if anything goes they said yes he said bollocks they said no. That not the definition of you can say anything that is you can say 90% of what you want which is not say what ever. That is 100% I remember a time when strong words were used and it got the point across as the other side went ok this is serious. But not now

[@hand587]

Parliamentary privilege is not about whether you can use swear words. It's about whether you can say something without being sued. Revealing the legal settlement with Facebook in a TV interview would have opened him up for legal action, but not in a parliamentary committee meeting (or in either of the Houses of Parliament, if he were a member).

A sign of the times that the biggest reaction was to the entirely appropriate use of the word 'bollocks'.

[@tlangdon12]

There has to be some standard in parliamentary language, if only so that the transcribers aren't exposed to the worst of it. I do agree with your comment though - I was surprised that the meeting wasn't upset with what Martin was saying. It really is shocking how little the Conservative government has done to protect vulnerable people.

[@uglyboy4067]

He needs to be given an official office, a dedicated team, and the power to do what he needs to do to protect the consumer/public from being ripped off. He is a legend and a downright good man.

[@laurenr7545]

I do research for banks. I chat to people about banking, their finances and their goals etc. Martin Lewis comes up in all studies we do. He has such influence and the trust of normal people, about something which (let’s face it) is almost a foreign language for most. He does a good job helping regular people navigate their finances. Props to him. He clearly cares, and people can see it.

[@carlarthur4442]

Why are they questioning Martin , it should be him questioning them on why they are doing what their doing to our country and why , and what are they going to do to try get back on track with its people . Martin should be in charge .

Ironically, I got a scam ad during this video. The annoying thing is, I've reported it dozens of times to YT, and yet they still continue to show it. The platforms that display these ads need to be held accountable, and they need more human reviewers who can make common sense decisions rather than algorithms.

[@monk3yboy69]

@Daniel Smith Why do you still have adverts playing on your device…..

[@dansmif]

@@monk3yboy69 I don't mind watching ads, as that's what pays the content creators. It's the price we pay for getting free content. If everyone blocked ads, then YT would either have to shut down, or they'd have to introduce subscription fees.

[@davidjames3080]

@@eggymayo3271 Well, that's just the closed thinking and aggressive political posturing (i.e. if you don't vote for who I vote for, you're evil) that is typical of modern day Britain. So you're crossing off 14 million people just because they didn't vote like you? It might surprise you that Martin was a Liberal Democrat before becoming what he calls a 'floating voter'. There are plenty of intelligent, compassionate people who don't vote Labour because their leader is unelectable.

[@crazyforyoumusicalfan]

If I knew what I was talking about I would happily be like Martin but as I have no clue in money or consumerism I’m afraid I can’t.

he sums it up quite well, he is an expert in his field and will not answer anything that he is not an expert on, in contrast MP's are not experts in anything but will make up an answer for anything its shocking, the lines of questioning at the beginning were childlike, Parliament is like a circus, they all need to do some work experience and sit in a board room and understand how intelligent conversations happen, they happen with intelligence and expertise!

If anyone deserves a seat in the House of Lords & a peerage it is Martyn Lewis

[@monipenny408]

unfortunately Martin has a soul, so he does not qualify.

[@TheWally02]

I truly believe the House of Lords should be made up of Subject Matter Experts. They should be experts in their field, non political, and appointed by a Proportional Representative (of the electorate) committee from the Commons. They serve a maximum of 10 years. Let’s say the commons is sending through a bill on Child Welfare. The Lords who have expertise in the area will be able to review and amend the bill. They send it back to the commons and it bounces back and forth until it is acceptable to both. The Commons would only have supremacy in the Finance Act and National Security. Everything else would have to go for review with the Subject Matter Experts. If a bill is processing where there are no experts in the Lords it is paused until a minimum number of Lords are present to scrutinise.
