Can't Clog the Mogg… saw it here first folks!
So much hate, where is the love? She's following her dream of being a reporter…what are YOU doing for the world? Exactly.
She's defiantly an inspiration to me 🙂
at 3:50 on wards it kind of got good
Utter, naive, shit
She talks a lot about our politicians being disengaged with the young people of Britain, yet young people of Britain don't do anything to get their voice heard. in 2010 on 44% of 18-24 year old voted and with the changes done to voter registration under this Con-Lib government that figure will drop. This doesn't help the matter of tackling apathy within the young people of Britain, and young people themselves won't either for the simple reason they believe that they're all the same and that not one party will fight for people aged between 18 and 24. The only way this will change is by young people of Britain waking up and realise that they actually hold the key to the election, especially students, an increase in voters aged 18-24 will have dramatic affect on the outcome on May 7th. The sad thing is politicians need to engage with young people more to stop this alarming growth of political apathy.
Total lot of nothing .. nada !
Who did this blondy blow to get this job.
Nothing is wrong with some of them. However, some are paedophiles, some are murderers, some are cowards, and all are spiritually castrated. FACT
Khaleesi vs Game of MPs.
I love how all these new "documentaries" say it's a problem if you're white and male.
This whole video is just about how evil the white male is while saying how we shouldn't judge people be sex or race. Typical feminists.
WEIRD QUESTION: Where's her bag? I mean, i'm not saying she has to have one but she had one at 3:50 and not after 4:20
She's unreeeeeeaaal
Sloppy, unfocussed analysis, and that's being kind.
It's those middle aged white men that are the problem, nothing sexist or racist about it.
Kind of pointless programme.
Such a lazy, juvenile analysis. Picking Alan Johnson and Rees-Mogg as your examples doesn't really give your argument much credibility.
mmm billie porter
