Never a truer word said in jest.

@thethirdman225 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

The politics of division.

@reecejones2731 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Well I think he’s telling the truth 😂

@wayupduk April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

He is correct. UK has a declining culture and no common values.

@johnnyreggae969 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

They our country is heading that could be true thank goodness we have jd Vance

@Wool_Itch April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

If you really think that remark was in jest you are deluding yourself. Welcome to your future. You better get used to it.

@buklau.3641 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

JD Vance is very right with what he said.

@denzel3888 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

He ain't wrong.

@jaymara2805 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Just when I think JDV couldn’t be anymore despicable he opens his mouth and spews more 💩

@lemonaid2216 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

The UK already has 4 "independent" pro Hamas mps. The demographics are massively changing. How many more islamist mps at the next election due to the Muslim voting bloc?

@Gintukas133 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

He’s right

@xne1592 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

There's many a true word spoken in jest. This country does not need to look very far to see the chaos the religion of peace brings with it…

@E_S_N_12 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Well. It is not far from the truth. Remind me again, who the first minister of Scotland was from 2023 to 2024? Then tell me about the mayor of London?

@randomcon123 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

I think this country is more unified than Vance and some Americans think… for once, we are unified enough in our disapproval of trump and his agendas.

@AllenBell-b4k April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

The truth hurts

@nachsn2213 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Agree with Vance even if it was spoken in jest by seeing what's happening in the UK 😂

@HATTERZ69 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

And America is Israel’s capital what’s your point 🤷‍♂️

@100roberthenry April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

many a truth is said in jest….just look at the last general election, the isalmists are now standing as 'independents' with labour being ousted in certain seats…and almost being ousted in certain seats by just a few votes by these 'independents' ….once they get enough 'independents' in place they will form their own party of 'independents' ….look at the demographic majority in lots of boroughs up and down the country….its all part of he muslim plan. if you cant see the agenda or refuse to see it, im afraid youve lost already….wakey wakey….

@zainubumar April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

You used to rule half the world…how could UK be this insecure about who they are!?

@mentalfitness2476 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

joke or not gives the uneducated far right something to cling on to for the extreme views

@ednakravitz2738 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

I also wouldn’t say the audience laughed. I heard one guy really loud.
And I bet he came with Mr. Vance
Who was absolutely putrid

@ednakravitz2738 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

JD is the most embarrassing person next to Trump coming out of the White House

@castelodeossos5042 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Like him ir not, that's not a bad joke. Am sure many a Brit could've made that joke.

@vagabondo4251 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

That statement just shows u how much they hate working class people

@bgcvetan April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Vance doing his jester theatrics again.

@AndrewRidley-m5o April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Judging by the comments, his comments clearly hit a nerve. You can thank the government and the woke for the divided nation we now have.

@anthonyburns1169 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Maybe kind of Pakistan counts. You mean that Islamic Republic who you recklessly allowed to build a nuclear program as a counter balance to the USSR supported India?

American politicians preaching about the dangers of Islamic fundamentalism is hilarious considering they are the architects of it everywhere you look

@the.toxic.phoenix April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

That's not a joke. Abusers often say awful things in "jest" then say "oh it was only a joke" when you're rightfully upset. Just because he smiled (because he's evil) and because people laughed (they were probably paid to laugh at his jokes, or maybe threatened if they didn't)

@jeangenie5807 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Sadly Vance, Trump and the rest of the US numpties are getting their talking points from Fartage. They don't realise how truly rediculous they make themselves look. And haven't we already got nuclear weapons? 😮

@MarkNelson-q5m April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

As an American I can tell you that your assessment is incorrect, most Americans still have very high regard for the customs,culture and democratic values of the UK. Nothing this Republican administration says is said in jest, if they say something they believe it. Also the comment about a “unified nation” is classic dog whistle, it didn't go unnoticed.

@onoix April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

What an absolute tool.

@lewisbeaton7839 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

😂😂 what a beauty! Vance is great

@kw8757 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Whilst we have Islamic MP's standing up in the House of Commons telling the Prime Minister that he wants blasphemy laws banning criticism of the Quran and demanding British tax payers pay for the building an airport in Kashmir for the convenience of his constituency when they visit how else can we be viewed except as a country that is becoming Islamic? We are slowly becoming an Islamic state, aided and abetted by our own government.

@stevennelson954 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Those in charge have allowed our identity of being British to be diluted by all those allowed to come here in the name of multiculturalism….but the problem is majority don't integrate anymore and build up their own areas. The justice system new rules shows the way this country will one day go

@nevans8915 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

According to the Office for National Statistics, 6% of the UK population is Muslim. Hardly an Islamic country. But then when did facts get in the way of race baiting and trying to whip up hatred for people like him?

@RueForget April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

He knows it's not true. What he's trying to do is stir up race hate in the UK. He's trying to make us all jump to desperately prove that we're not Islamist. Note that he uses the term Islamist and not Muslim. That's the term they use for terror group. This is deeply offensive propaganda designed to undermine the UK.

@travelwell6049 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Do we not already have any nuclear weapons?

@imadachiri-m3f April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Probably the worst administration in US History

@andythorne6236 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

So says mini-me. Is his mascara running again?

@yellowperilbiker April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

He was not joking. Have you been to most cities in UK recently? Not many do a proper survey. Leicester has. 30% do not speak English daily, 10% cannot speak it at all. 75% of social housing is to foreigners. UK is now a centre for Shariah law. 12 miles from us is large Halal abattoir with 60 butchers and a resident Imam. Animals are killed in a way alien to a Christian country, yet never see any animal rights folk there.

@cameronmcgregor2583 April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

31:28 Even if Avocado is a really tough fight Im not sure melter does much of anything against it. You elimate its shield for one turn allowing you to hit it at least once or maybe a few times but after that it goes back to having most of its shield and you've taken off about 20 hp and probably won't see melter again this fight. Its definitely not a counter to the fight anyway

@miepski April 12, 2025 - 3:51 pm

Vance hates Europe because we have benefitted of the USA's arrogance, thinking they are the greatest country on the planet, for decades.
