Michael Lambert: The Top 5 Smug British Politicians - 2022 Awards

Apr. 30, 2022 • In this video we announce the winners of the top five smuggest politicians in the U.K. All of those chosen are known for their smugness, arrogance and self-satisfaction. By coincidence they are also all Tories.

This is the first of what we hope will be an annual award. Please also look out for the GIT awards (Gormless, Incompetent and Timewaster) which will be coming soon.

In the meantime, whilst Brexit continues to destroy the British economy and local elections are about to take place the government under Boris Johnson slumps from crisis to crisis and scandal to scandal.

Note We left the EU in January 2021 and not 2020 as stated in the video.
