  • Rarely have I seen an elected official act in such a spoilt and self-important manner. Even some of the most crass have learned to disguise it in rudimentary ways. It was like watching a teenager trying to set his dad to rights.

  • who gives a shit how rich he is? He's fucking HOT!!!

  • Goldsmith is a big posh sod with plums in his mouth… and the plums have mutated and have got beaks!

  • He says at 9:02 "the fact that you have zero-ed in on this campaign is a reflection on your agenda not mine". He is basically saying that Channel 4 News are out to get him and do not do the same with other politicians. Why would Channel 4 News have a personal agenda against either him personally, or against an MP just because they are a Tory? He couldn't be more wrong.

  • aaarrrg an arrogant left wing upper class englishman arguing with an arrogant right wing upper class englishman..good times

  • What a lying toff!

  • He ousted that Lib Dem Kramer we owe him big time

  • jon snow looks ridiculous...hes been caught..thats it with journalists,they always like to misinform

  • I love the fact that people still defend Goldsmith's behaviour here, even though OFCOM cleared C4. Snow's remark that Goldsmith's defence is a "complete travesty of the truth" stands, his exasperation is justified, Goldsmith's arrogance beggars belief, he may as well have just said "how dare you, do you know who I am?"

  • @uhlansnathe Exactly, Zac Goldsmith is a spoilt, arrogant twat.

  • Why is this guy a Tory MP? His father, the corporoate raider James Goldsmith, stood candidates in 1997,14 years ago, when he formed the Referendum Party. The aim of said party was to try and win as many seats as possible to force a Referedum on our membership of Europe. James Goldsmith spent £20m on all this, he never won one seat. He didnt even live in Britain, he flew in from his house in Mexico to do it. He was hugely slated by the Tories for it all. Then his son ends up a Tory MP. How weird.

  • Zaz Goldsmith is a tosser

  • i dont think zac is a liar. he is soo anti corruption its ridiculous, not on a fake politician level, but really really anti corruption, he has one of the highest records of voting rebellion out there.

  • @crackkatt I bet hes into Eugenics too ;)

  • @2012GST why? plz explain why so many people think this guy is liar and into eugenics and into other crap. not that i dont believe it, i just need proof, because i thought he was one of the few honest politicians out there

  • @crackkatt LOLOLOL

  • ZAC LIar go on john Snow

  • shut up ZAC liar go for it JOHN SNOW

  • Jon Snow's a twat who doesn't let his guest speak.

  • well done Zac!

    

  • I live under him. I'll put it bluntly... He's a cunt.

  • Another elitist cunt.

  • Zac Goldsmith is an aggressive waster. A waste of space and an egotist. Loves himself. Little Rich daddy's boy. I was at school with him - he was a TWAT THEN and he's TWAT TODAY.

  • hilarious.

  • Jon Snow was getting a bit out of his depth here.... very entertaining, though.

  • What an absolute dick Goldsmith is. I love Jon Snow, I think he's one of the last bastions of British journalism.

  • Zak is EVIL . Rothschild are EVIL .

  • He looks like Princess Diana--- that is so weird.

  • He comes across excellently in this. Journalists can be such bollox!

  • @jackkirwanis Are you mad? He looks like an arrogant twat and I can assure you he is

  • ZG doesn't give crap Jon! This is just sport to him...

  • @Lindow3 Jon Snow has dealt with bigger and better than Zac Goldsmith in his time.

  • Goldsmith is sooooooooooooo dodgy. Who's going to bring him down?

  • I didnt like Zac Goldsmith before this.

    He stood up for himself in front of a media prick who thinks he is more important than everything.

  • He's my MP. I might ask him a few questions about it myself. Or should I speak to his sister?

  • @cabaretampere

    search "Zac Goldsmith, Jemima Khan, and the deleted tweets"

  • Cunt

  • Goldsmith is not only dating one of the Rothchild's he's also a relative. One of a dynasty that have been fucking us over for centuries.

  • zac goldsmith. what a knob.

  • What a fool..... like his father.

  • Get em zac, dont let him get away with it.

    funky sock wearing bastard.

  • Zac Goldsmith cheated on his wife, chip off the old block.

  • ooh zac xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­x

  • ooh zac xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­x

  • and the winner of the Boris Johnson "foot in the mouth" award goes to.................Zac Goldsmith!

  • Good old ding dong, both came out well.

  • I think it was Jon Snow who made an arse of himself.

  • @Gaableend yh he shud ave let the cunt sey his piece then start his own q's

  • Zac had him for breakfast,

  • "In which case you want to watch it"? Zac Goldsmith is a shitheel.

  • experienced, educated & professional

    vs.

    inexperienced, over-entitled & under-educated

  • He's gorgeous.... but thats where his good points start and stop.

  • Dont back Zac, SACK ZAC!

  • please someone track him down

  • zac is a silver spooned cunt

  • @4:14 Why didn't Jon Snow allow Zac to finish about the Friday 'issue.'

    He is his father' son, I am not sticking up for Zac, but I await the Ofcom investigation with interest.

  • Just for the record I'm from a working-class family and don't have a lot of money myself. But it is purely moronic to term "upper class" as an insult. I for one was interested in whether Channel 4 had lied and if Jon Snow for one minute then perhaps Goldsmith could of answered and we could of moved on to more important matters instead of wasting 12 minutes. I neither like nor dislike Goldsmith but dullards throwing out cliches about the financial crash on here make no useful point at all. MORONS

  • @EJDevlin

    That should be: "if Jon Snow had stop blathering for one minute".

  • @EJDevlin I'll tell you this much - its an absolute tragedy that Goldsmith and his cronies have got anywhere near power. A disaster.

  • @EJDevlin I'm not sure if there exists more worthless a creature than a working class Tory.

  • Once again YouTube proves itself to have the most moronic cretins making comments on the whole of the internet. How many blindly idiotic people just decide without any knowledge, whatsoever, of the facts that the rich man is guilty and Jon Snow is beyond reproach. Just because someone is rich does not mean they are somehow a shady character. In this country (the UK) we blather on and on about corruption like us normal folks are all 100 per cent honest infallible.

  • where's the so cald o-nij? the good pepl'v richmund votid fr him.

    JS 'it's very rer I feel cmpleetly relaxt'. KODZWOLLUP!

    channel four r tooo full'v thmselvz. jon sno shud retire forthwith. and let the nortthner krishnan take (uttr lightweight). ever sins peter sissnz left wait fr the apology from channel four, the cool wonnabe's kid.

  • What a disgrace this man is to politics. I wish he'd stick to his charitable work, which his foundation does very competently.

  • Jon Snow better watch it? Ohhhhhh I'm sure he's quaking in his boots Zac you stupid upper class freak, oops perhaps i'd best watch it now AS WELL.....................Oh and perhaps my boyfriend should AS WELL.....................And Zac? Shut your noise chum.........................T­here's a good chap.

  • LOL, what a fraud

  • Stupid twat.

  • Sir Jammy Fishfinger lives (as Private Eye viewers will know). He is a waste of skin and air!

  • He is as big a crook as his father!

  • Too much money in general, or too much too young. One of the two.

  • one point i'd like make to all those people who are ready to tie zac to the shooting post is that most candidates who ran probably did the same number swindling and rightly said by zac if he is guilty of what they have accused him of then so is every other candidate who stood, and other mp's from the former government spent far more and charged it to us on things that were NOT relevant to anything other than their own lives. So, why i ask is everyone up in arms about something so trivial.

  • Body language of pure lies, question avoidance throughout - Snow did a good job to resist punching him in the face. Zac Goldsmith should be locked up and have his 200 million (potentially embezzled) pounds distributed to the UK's poor. What an actual loser.

  • I don't trust Goldsmith I think he did spend more than he was supposed to and is using the poor of excuse that everyone else was doing it - just like the expenses scandal.  He is also trying blame Channel 4 for a stitch up to muddy the waters.

  • I stated clearly that with every Labour Govt since 1935 unemployment is always HIGHER when they leave Office than when they come in..you said and I quote "they're nearly always lower, even now, at the end of New Labour's run". WRONG! Please support your claim with evidence instead of clutching the 1983 Labour Party Manifesto :-)

  • One word.  Tosser

  • who cares if he is a jew!@issue 23

  • Typical arrogant, pompous, high-and-mighty, self-serving, holier-than-thou Jew.

  • @issue23 well now, i think you just went one better than i did haha....brilliant comment!

  • @DJPaddy643 I thank you! Though you gave me some inspiration!

    @twattyplops I couldn't care less, but the word Jew somehow sits quite comfortably, and seems quite apt to be, at the end of that sentence.

  • Adolf Hitler was right the Jews, of which he is one, are ruined Germany, as they are doing to Europe now. We really should never have fought the Nazis, we should have left our borders wide open, we would have completely different world now, which would have been utopia. Instead we are run by self indulgent jews

  • Hopefully this toryboy will be the 1st to be kicked out.

  • What a dick.

    I can't believe Susan Kramer lost out to this arsehole.

  • He has got such an ego!

  • I think Susan Kramer shuold have won!!

    but heesh famoush and he rang my bell at my housh and shpoke to me

  • 4 or 5 years of this shit... i'm moving

  • @DJPaddy643 you couldn't have worded, nor nailed it, any better. I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment, Paddy.

  • goldsmith is a lying tory non dom arsebandit who clearly thinks the rules don't apply to him

  • Zac Goldsmith's code name is Pompous Gerrymandering Cunt.

  • Comment removed

  • @poidol Another Silly childish socialist world view consisting of Inncocent victims of socio-economic circumstances (the PEOPLE lol), being persecuted by Evil greedy 'Bankers' , set to be 'Rescued' by the socialist leaning politicians. Again this silly low-grade drama bullshit is still around in 2010? Grow up!

  • @poidol Is this the same family as old Adolf Goldschmidt ?

  • @poidol Richmond is one of the richest areas in the UK. Most of its residents are rather snobby anyway so don't be surprised if they do elect rich bankers and financiers.

  • @poidol Hang the fuckin Goldsmiths of this world!!! Banking scum!

  • @poidol Amen to that brother! According to the Guardian he's a billionaire..... just a normal bloke tbf 

  • @poidol Su hermano vive en Mexico y anda con muchachos y les da vida de lujos era pareja de un amigo.

  • What a pathetic spoilt child, just get on and argue your point,...and stop making a complete arse of yourself...he turned what could have been a minor story into a major gaffe...not clever, not political...just silly, immature and self obssesed...another  non dom till about 5 minutes ago... good show Zac!

  • The Left in this country have proved themselves to be very bad losers.

  • @Seamaster73

    The Loony Left always leave this country bankrupt..they are a joke

  • @steps1 You're confusing the Loony Left with the Loony Right. But that's okay, we can't all keep up with recent or semi-recent history. Or have any idea about global financial cycles. Or understand basic political theory. You know what, you're right, it IS a bit of a joke :-)

  • @ContemptForYou

    Oh no..no confusion on my part..and you're right..not everyone will be aware of the horror show of the late 70s..'51..'35 etc and how unemployment is always higher at the end of a Labour period in Office than at the beginning..I don't include you in that of course as you will have been aware of that :-)

  • @steps1 You mean when screaming right-wingers like yourself in America wrecked the world economy, spread recession to Europe, and then leftists in Europe that were in power took the blame for ideological idiocy that wasn't their own? Yes, that must be what you mean when you dribble out the 70s, '51, '35. As for unemployment stats, wrong again champ. They're nearly always lower, even now, at the end of New Labour's run. I suggest you go and study something called 'economic history'. Toodles.

  • Were you sponsored to write a post full of inaccuracies or did you just do it for fun? a) i'm centre right b) i'm not American!i've got an itch..is that America's fault too? Though I had to laugh at New Lab being described as 'leftists'..sorry we are talking about the party that ditched all its principles in the 90s, copied Tory policy and had a 'Tory' in Blair as leader aren't we?

    Unemployment May 97 : below 2 million

    Unemployment now: 2.47 million

    How embarrassing for you..toodles :-)

  • That was my point, which you've again, entirely missed. NuLabour, were centre-right. Just like you. Although it's a sad fact that zealots like yourself usually like to think they were real Labour. They imitated Thatcherite economic policy, which involved allowing the financial sector to run riot. What part of that didn't you understand? Your attempt to deflect America's right wing's central part in destroying the world economy is understandable, but keep your itch to yourself. Toodles :-)

  • Don't try to use statistics you don't understand. It further indicates your lacking grasp of global economics. You've plucked pre-1997 unemployment statistics as the world economy had picked up (whilst a democrat was in office, no less) and tried to compare them to mid-recession stats. But let's play that game.

    Unemployment now: 2.47 million

    Unemployment 1982: 3.10 million +

    Unemployment 1983: 3.64 million +

    Unemployment 1986: 3.22 million +

    Unemployment 1992: 2.81 million +

    Try again :-)

  • Why is everyone typing his full name. Your all fucking boring boring people. He's a Jewish and that fills all the gaps. So would all the pompous losers please leave the building and go eat cheese. Losers.

  • complete muppet full of self importance

  • Snow does no such thing. He wasted lots and lots of time by not allowing Goldsmith to make his initial, well, point of order.

    This is a total fuss about nothing and does Channel 4 no credit.

  • Zac Goldsmith is an idiot. He's not an idiot because of his election spending, I actually think he has a point there. He's an idiot because he has lied about the lead up to this interview and accused Jon Snow of behaving in a manner that he did not and he has done it when the evidence is available for everyone to see.

    Now no-one will believe him when he makes valid points about ambiguity and complexity in the rules that govern election spending.

  • Zac Goldsmith is NOT telling the truth about Jon Snow's tweets. Evidence: j.mp / cuoaKi

  • Zac Goldsmith what a complete tosser....

  • Facebook group: Zac Goldsmith is a twat!

    ww w. facebook.co m/pages/Zac-Goldsmith-is-a-twa­t/144172972261019

  • Wanker! Goldsmith that is!

  • GOLDSMITH TAKING THE HIGH GROUND? now that is rich!

    I wonder if Mrs goldsmith got a sorry and if so i wonder if goldsmith even knows what sorry means!

    It looks like the elite are being flushed out. Well done John Snow for hanging on to the tail!

  • Goldsmith taking the high ground? now that is rich!

    I winder if mrs goldsmith got a sorry and I wonder if goldsmith knows the meaning of the word?

  • In my mind john snow scrambles over the table, grabs the pen out of goldsmiths manicured hand and fuckin rams it inch deep into the cunts temple. He then removes it places it back in his hand and makes him write an apology on behalf of all the sharks he represents to all the people that they have fucked over in his own dirty blood.....aaaaahhhhhh i feel better now, im off for a cig.....EAT THE RICH!

  • What an arrogant, self-righteous brick! Not Zac Goldsmith, but Jon Snow! If he interviewed me, I wouldn't give him time of day.

  • Hey, stuff all this. How about the media get all those banks, and ask..

    "Why is it, that you make these mistakes and tax payers money have to bail you out?" If the people had debt and they didn't pay, they'd be jailed. Oh wait. You are the very people who created this debt!"

    The media knows these are front end puppets and getting us distracted by the real people behind them. The BANKS! We fall for this over again.

  • Please find time to watch The Obama Deception, the government has already censored it once.

    youtube.com/watch?v=kP_AdVVKFd­M

  • Lol at anyone who believes that Jon Snow has ever 'pwned' anybody. He is the Robert Fisk of the visual medium. Channel 4 news is a left leaning nightly propaganda broadcast, made by left wing journalists. It has been for as long as I can remember.

    "How about a new journalism". Best line in the interview.

  • I hate people who play for time when asked a question.

  • YOU ALL FORGET THAT ZAC IS A MILLIONAIRE. I HATE POLITICS AND GOVERNMENT BUT PLEASE DONT BE BLINDED BY THE MEDIA

  • This is ridiculous, in what way is Zac Goldsmith a dick? Everything he says is completely accurate. The law is excessively convoluted in this area, I challenge any one of you critics to get through RPA (1983) without ending in complete confusion. This whole thing is bullshit, it is a simple matter of journalists appealing to public fears and basically stiring up shit. Note how it's Channel 4 that is blowing this story up, the channel that slumped £50 million profit in 4 years.

  • I hate reporters that don't let the guest talk and justify a point.

  • Nasty twit. Snow brutalizes- quite deservedly.

  • Not appreciating the anti-Tory sentiments voiced in the comments sections below... One MP is not the spokesman for the ideals of an entire party, especially when that party is the one that is trying to pull the United Kingdom out of the mess that the Labour government caused.

    Why the current crop of Tories get so villainised seems ridiculously prejudicial and ignorant to me, considering the consistent idiocy and occasional lunacy of the Labour government over the last 12 years.

  • he may be a dick but he is a fucking FIT one! phwoar

  • This is why I bloody hate some politicians

  • Great Job Zac !!!

  • Wow, Zac Goldsmiths a dick....

  • Zac is a dick

  • For a person who is getting interviewed who tries to raise his voice and overlaps jon when he tries to ask him a question just reflects his personality. Ignorant, arrogant, and dumb. Dumb because he knows that if Jon will throw him a question, which will be a clever one, he's not going to be able to answer it. Theres no point of him showing up in the interview because he just made himself look even worse.

  • I thought Zac made good points and didnt look like an arse at all - he handled himself well - i think he won. I await your rambling tantrams....

  • @rhodesdarcy I shan't ramble- you are plainly as ignorant and deluded as he is. He looked awful and duplicitous. If this represents the voice of intelligent conservatism, we are in for four to five years of hell. The sad thing is, I'd expect exactly the same from "Not Labour."

  • @williamwilson666

    Where was the duplicity.

    I suggest your prejudices are at work here.

  • @williamwilson666 ramble. You cant follow his points, thats not so bad really. I am happy to be as ignorant and deluded as he is - an other compliments fire away and thanks! Maybe play the interview through another time and listen LOL....

  • @rhodesdarcy Once was enough to decide upon my contempt for a simpleton toff still managing, amazingly, to lie while having a verbalised stroke, if it's all the same to you. And a word of advice: if you wish to be taken seriously in the adult world, don't write "LOL" at the end of your message. In the unlikely event you have managed to fashion something that isn't entirely witless people will, rightly, determine that this was luck and not judgement.

  • @williamwilson666 Your compliments are most entertaining. Ahh the ego of your denial. Three little letters caused you so much pain because of your inferiority complex... LOL. I am taken seriously in the adult world enough to know you're probably a short man and you put the devils number in your name to try and give yourself a harder/darker reputation! Please do continue your ramblings, I like to read them before I sleep to make me smile. Oh and nice pseudo gravity with your last comment - next?

  • @rhodesdarcy In your second sentence you aptly demonstrate that even a stopped clock in right twice a day.

  • @williamwilson666 sorry i forgot the time!!! - i forgot i cared enough about your comments to check my inbox. Now where were we.......oh yes you agree about your denial - good. So maybe get some designer glasses next or something as your comments are growing thin. Was I right about the other stuff though? You should start a blog - your rage needs an outlet and your ego needs the attention :)

    Any more stolen one liners? Perhaps some Churchill or some Fry - your wanna be audience wouldnt know ;)

  • @rhodesdarcy It appears, once again, that a great deal has passed over your head. Then, if your enfeebled adolescent intellect grasps in vain at youtube comments you shouldn't toy with environmental science- not that you seem to be dissuaded by the prospect of humiliating yourself.Never-the-less, perhaps you should refrain from checking your inbox and devote what little time you save to the text messaging, covert cider-drinking and internet pornography to which your aptitude is so clearly suited

  • @williamwilson666 Trust me your remonstrations to my taunts of your inferiority complex only save to castigate your character further LOL. What world your little ego exists in is beautifully well protected from enlightenment by your self adored ineptitude to fathom just exactly what contemptuous reflections your amusing efforts at uneccesary rebuttal cast upon your clearly supercilious self. You've wasted your parent's money on expanding your vocab, shame you cant buy the perspicacity needed :)

  • @rhodesdarcy you've misspelt unnecessary. How ironic.

  • @thegreatloy You've chosen to comment on that - did you have to scroll through to even find it? That means we both know whats going on here lol.

    But seriously you felt commenting on unnecessary - necessary? perhaps you type slower and spell check comments lol. Ever been called pedantic. It would have been ironic if I was ridiculing him/you for his spelling perhaps, but i'm finished with caring about replying more.... (havent spelt check this one either;)

    But hey you made me smile! was funny :)

  • @rhodesdarcy Goodness me- you consciously manipulate the submission form in an attempt to engineer the impression you have succeeded in having "the last word." And, given the context of your grammatically remedial response, I can see why. Your preoccupation with ego has been your undoing- even more so than your withered intellect. It takes considerable lack of self-awareness to write stupid things so simply. How far we've come since I informed you writing "LOL" damages your credibility!

  • @williamwilson666 3 weeks and thats what you came up with....what a riveting life you lead. Do you ever re-read the ramblings you write?

    You care to much about things which are unimportant like LOL damaging my credibility. Does anyone apart from you care? All I can see is I can press the same button again and again for the same response. I'm bored of you. Fine you win, you're amazing. You dont need to be tall anymore. I'm through dignifying you with replies, you have no circumspection for life

  • @rhodesdarcy I'm not sure you have properly represented the case for broadband connections in juvenile facilities. I hope for your sake that this thread is never used as evidence in your parole hearing.

  • That guy is such a moron. I hate this generation of shouty idiots in suit with no substance.

    Posturing and raising voices to address 1 point. Inefficient vipers.

  • Nigger cunthole

  • Yep, this pretty much sums up our government...

  • zac is married into the ROTHSCHILD family. look them up people, these are our true rulers, along with the other corrupted interbred ruling elite families. Who are the Bank of England? who are the Bilderberg group? Who are in control? It is not the tories/libdems or even the EU, it isnt even us the people, gasp. It is the elite who have long been in power. But then we wouldnt know about that, we went to school and read the newspapers so why would we? WAKE UP PEOPLE.

  • @alifico Keep spreading the word bro, it's good too see more people like yourself spreading the word keep it up.

  • lol

    

  • Comment removed

  • This is a bit of a ridiculous story because Zac Goldsmith is a millionaire and he's clearly smart enough to not get caught on a sticky wicket over expenses when to him it's not even loose change.

  • What a slimy rat.

  • BBC News is extremely ignorant, flippant, predictable and repetitive rubbish. ITV News is cheap, insulting and patronising crap. C4 News is good, but has an attitude problem. Sky News looks the part and provides good footage, but has no soul. TV news in this country's shit!

  • @ThisEnglishBoy Sh*t or run by the same corrupt system that keeps the populace in the dark about reality, chasing shadows of the left and right false paradigm variety. Thats why there are minor differences, to give you the illusions of choice just like in politics. People need a history lesson, democracy NEVER existed.

  • @ThisEnglishBoy It's all bullshit and propaganda, stop watching mainstream media bullshit, it's all from the same people. 

  • He is an ass but am sorry to say he's also right! The media are just chasing shadows now looking for the next big story. Am sick of it all... Mehhh
