Top 10 Times Adam Hills Destroyed Politicians

Intro is going to keep a lower profile than Michael Barrymore at a pool party welcome to watch morej UK and today we're looking at Adam Hills most legendary Rants and takedowns on the last leg before we begin we publish new content every day so be sure to subscribe to our Channel and ring the bell to get notified about our latest videos can I just say ahead of a potential trip to Moscow to watch Arsenal in a couple of weeks I distance myself from your comments number 10 government Cuts it's Government Cuts often not individual politicians in the firing line on the last leg but decisions that the British government has taken as a whole considering the Tories have been in power since the last leg began it's always them getting the brunt of the criticism uh disabled people make up to 8% of the population but have borne 29% of the cuts making them nine times more likely to be affected than Able Body people this time it was for cuts to the disability support announced in 2015 while austerity was was still the government's main economic policy since the last leg features two disabled comedians as its hosts these issues hit close to home meanwhile how are the government dealing with the fact that they may not reach the legally binding Target of fewer than one in 10 children in poverty by 2020 they're going to try to scrap the target Hills also called them out for trying to change the definition of poverty so that fewer children were deemed to be in it wow if we've learned one thing from this government it's that politicians really love screwing vulnerable children The DWP number nine the DWP more cases are surfacing of people being unfairly judged fit to work including this week a man with no legs who lost his payments because he could quote climb stairs with his arms more government policy in 2017 the department of work and pensions was in the news when people learned about its unfair disability assessments staff were given bonuses for how quickly they could assess people for disability benefit s and also weren't medically trained meaning they were unable to actually say accurately whether people could work or not this government is slowly killing off a generation of disabled people the only question is are they doing it on purpose ask any disabled person you know in this country and they'll tell you how humiliating the process is Adam and Alex were both outraged to hear how terminal cancer patients were also being declared fit to work if they had longer than 6 months left to live if you get 30% of your assments overturned you lose a day's pay 40% you lose a week if you hit 50% of Assessments being overturned you lose a limb number eight Tories on Twitter is Tories on Twitter it okay that conservative Campaign Headquarters rebranded themselves as a factchecking organization during the leadership debate in the leadup to the 2019 election the conservative party had the brain wave to Rebrand the official cchq press Twitter account as fact check UK supposedly offering an un biased look at things the labor party was seeing in its campaign this was against Twitter's terms of service since it was quite clearly misleading the public by pretending to be an independent organization although the Tories didn't quite see it that way I think they should have gone the whole hog rename themselves Jeremy Corbin and then they can just tweet you know I'm a liar with a silly little beard if that's what they want to tweet if they're going to go the whole hog they they it was only fact checking that fact check everything the party was critic ized with their entire defense being that no one would have fallen for the lie who knows but the Tories did win the 2019 election so maybe fact check UK was more convincing than people on Twitter wanted to admit their attitude after was remarkable as well cuz all the Tories just doubled down none of them went oh sorry we shouldn't have done that they just went no no get over it number seven gun Gun Violence violence I mean of all the weeks for everything to happen at once thankfully Donald Trump is in the world American politics are discussed frequently on the last leg especially when there's another mass shooting in the states which is sadly quite often Hills was specifically talking about Trump's response to the 2016 shooting in Orlando in which 49 people lost their lives Donald Trump responded to the nightclub shooting in Orlando by saying if you had guns in that room even if you had a number of people having it strapped to your ankle or strapped to their waist where bullets could have flown in the other direction right at him you wouldn't have had the same kind of a tragedy he took particular issue with Trump's suggestion that the tragedy could have been voided had even more people been armed with dangerous automatic weapons something Unthinkable in both the UK and Hills native Australia and that's the problem with giving guns to everyone it only works if everyone agrees on who the bad guys are and here's the thing whenever there's a mess shooting gun sales go up in America we know that he perfectly captured how it feels to be on the outside of the US looking in frustrated with how little the people in charge seem to care about the violence number Donald Trump six Donald Trump more Trump only a few months after the Orlando shooting he emerged victorious in the presidential election what have you done you've elected a bright orange cartoon character who doesn't believe in climate change said he wants to ban Muslims from traveling to America Adam Hills was one of many public figures reacting to the shock Victory delivering one of his legendary rants for a moment it felt like world events couldn't get any worse than 2016 and the horror around the world was palpable I needed that oh that's much better oh it's been just burning that was what it looks like when a man gets rid of a tumor uh people were amazed not only by just how much further America shifted to the right but by how absurd the US electoral system is in the first place since Trump got fewer votes than Hillary Clinton but still went to the White House he's also Donald Trump is the oldest president ever to come to office so he may well bring back the afternoon nap here's it hoay number five Godfrey Godfrey Bloom Bloom Godfrey hit the news again this week when he declared that women are more suited to again quote finding mustard in a pantry than parking a [Music] car a politician too controversial even for ukip xme Godfrey Bloom found himself in a raft of trouble back in 2013 and eventually had the ukip whip removed after some remarks about women and an incident where he attacked a journalist with a brochure Bloom said all manner of things about women during his time in the public eye earning the ey of the last leg who couldn't believe what they were Hearing in the 21st century you are on Bloom you are on I challenge you to turn up here next Wednesday night 10:00 live on air I'll even bring in the sand when ler asked about Bloom having the whip removed Nigel farage himself called Bloom oldfashioned for his sense of humor Hills ended by challenging Bloom to a live fight your ass will be kicked from here to Bongo bongol land you outdated anachronistic prehistoric old number four Vladimir Putin in 2018 all Vladimir Putin eyes were on Russia for another reason the Salsbury poisonings in which the scles almost died after being Poisoned With a nerve agent in Wilshire is it okay that I'm on Russia's side during this nonsense hash innocent till proen guilty no it's not not okay to be on Russia's side Hills had a lot of thoughts on this when someone wrote Into The Shore saying we shouldn't blame the Kremlin or Putin for what had happened until we knew for sure it's now entirely possible that the Russian state has used a nerve agent on European soil for the first time since World War II it was ultimately proven that the Kremlin was responsible for what happened to the Scoles surprising nobody in a disastrous political move for Putin we doubt that Adam Hills ranting on Channel 4 reached him in Moscow but it certainly affected the Brits who were inexplicably choosing to believe the kremlin's version of events Vladimir Putin is not a nice guy he's not just a wronged man who Miss understood and is facing down an international conspiracy number three Dominic Cummings Dominic Cummings he gave a press conference in the number 10 Rose Garden in which he claimed he drove to darham with his wife because she had covid symptoms and he wanted to be near family in case they needed them for child care Hills found himself remotely horsting the last leg all the way from Melbourne during the Co lockdowns in 2020 the same week that the barard castle scandal emerged now Darren police have said that Cummings might have broken lockdown rules but it was a minor and there would be no followup but it looks bad if you've forgotten it came out that during the pandemic advisor Dominic Cummings had driven all the way to Durham with his wife and child while they were ill supposedly to get an eye test at non-tourist trap Barnard Castle while sick with covid this looks like it's arrogant and stupid and it shows disdain for every single person that missed the birth of their child the funeral of their parent and surprisingly the boys on the last leg had a lot to say about this just like everybody else in the country I don't I'm I'm no expert but is it the safest thing in the world to check your eyesight by driving no number Nigel Farage two Nigel farage back to brexit following the results of the referendum it soon came out that some of the promises the leave campaign had made weren't entirely based in reality I know I said I wouldn't get angry but he didn't even make it to 7 a.m. before admitting that the basis for the leave campaign was a steaming pile of specifically Hills was talking about Le's biggest supporter Nigel farage in the years since brexit it's become clear that nothing the leave campaign said has really come to fruition and we still have plenty of EU laws restricting us this is a man who doesn't think climate change is a problem wants to scrap pollution limits on power stations and has taken up smoking again because in his words I think the doctors have got it wrong on this one Adam drawing a comparison between farage and Ralph Harris was definitely a bold choice though one which if it had been just a little bit further over the line could have been libelous even if getting out of the EU was the right thing to do we followed the wrong man there that's like being led into Disneyland by Ralph Harris number one Jacob Reese MOG I'm Jacob ReesMogg going to make a prediction you're not going to see a lot of Jacob Rees MOG over the next few weeks why because the Tories are trying really hard to convince you they're not the nasty party in 2017 the country watched in horror as grenal Tower buil burn to the ground resulting in the deaths of 72 people in 2019 Tori MP Jacob Reese MOG had a few comments to make about the tragedy widely regarded as being caused by lack building regulations Jacob reog said it would be common sense to disobey firefighters advice during an emergency you know what I think common sense is not saving money by wrapping a building in polyester he said on the radio that the fires victims lacked common sense of course this is an appalling thing to see and Hills suggested that we test whether Reese MOG has as much sense as he sees by trapping him in a burning version of The Crystal Maze and seeing if he can make it out Jacob reog is locked in a burning building which is clad in Twigs dry leaves and paper masche while firefighters give him advice in one ear Andrew bridgen is on a landline telling him to go with your gut let us know in the comments which comedian you think has the best political commentary these Australians they come over here and they have go our peder files do you agree with our pigs check out this other recent clip from watch Mojo UK and be sure to subscribe and ring the bell to be notified about our
