Jeremy Corbyn's independent election campaign to stop Starmer winning London stronghold

- Can Corbyn keep his seat? We visited Islington North to meet the man who has spent 40 years representing this part of London. Is his loyal following enough to beat Labour on July 4th, or has Keir Starmer purged him from parliament in a way Tony Blair never did?

Should Corbyn have founded a new left-wing party when he was suspended from Labour?
I don't think parties are the way forward, they used to be a good idea when we were less connected but now we have the internet, social media and decentralised news, independent candidates can collaborate just as easily without forming something that can become what it seeks to defeat.
Without party politics, it would be possible to work with people like Galloway on foreign policy where he's excellent but ignore him on domestic issues where he is a bigot.
The ANC ended apartheid but Andrew feinstein ended up leaving because they became corrupt.
Denouncing Israel as an aprtheid state and proposing nationalisation of crucial UK industries should be in the founding charter of any such party
Yes or teamed up with George Galloway.
There is one. Workers party. For goodness sake no more sectarianism.
@@joyvinansky8448 Galloway is very socially conservative. They couldn't work together.
Authoritarian Kier Starmer is very insecure. His moral foundations are fragile.
-fragile- * non-existent
Sir Keir Starmer is yet to be democratically elected. How can he be authoritarian?
@@user-cp7gh8zj6bSir Keir Starmer hasn’t been democratically elected. How can he be authoritarian?
Starmer has no MORAL FOUNDATIONS HE IS POWER HUNGRY THAT MAKES HIM DANGEROUS
Jeremy Corbin - an honest voice in politics. Very rare
Honest? He'd be campaigning for the election of the most right-wing Labour government in its history were it not for being kicked out of the party. Hardly honest.
Starmer's treatment of Jeremy is disgusting. Vote Jeremy. ❤
Vote NEITHER...
👏👏👏👏👏👏
I don’t care what others think, I will always support Mr Corbyn, because I’ve always admired him, regardless, he is an incredible man and politician, and very likeable as well, and down to earth. I don’t live in Islington or even London, so I won’t be able to vote for him, but I support him 100% whole-heartedly. Best of luck, Jeremy - and also thanks to this journalist Matt Kennard, he is also outstanding. The voice of honesty (like Jeremy).
Well said! He always had my vote for the very reasons you stated
Absolutely agree
He supports terrorism though ?
#unseatWes #GetStarmerOUT
Vote Independent.
Vote Jeremy Corbyn, Vote Andrew Feinstein, Vote Andrew Bridgen, Vote George Galloway, Vote Craig Murray, Vote WBP, Vote Greens, Vote indy. Say NO to the status quo!!
I hope the most independent MPs get elected since 1945
Andrew Bridgen? Are you fucking mad?
Do NOT vote Andrew Bridgen
Why? @@thefilthykevin4282
WHy?
The icing on the cake would be to see Starmer lose to independent!!...
I couldn't agree more with the young mans' words: "one of the very few honest politicians left". Vote INDEPENDENT to re-elect JEREMY CORBYN.
You do realise that, if Corbyn hadn't been kicked out of Labour, he'd be campaigning for Starmer/Streeting/Reeves et al right now?
@@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx I imagine he would be campaigning to represent his constituents and, true to his well-established record of defying the party line, making principled stands in parliament and seeking to influence policy.
@@celt456 Campaigning to elect a Starmer-led Labour government, the most right wing in its history (and that's saying something). What changes to Labour policy in government has Jeremy Corbyn achieved?
I, too, am no fan of this right-wing Labour administration - I am no longer a member of the party, accordingly.
It isn't always easy to see the direct influence of different views expressed in parliamentary debates, or the way in which they shift public opinion and voting behavior, But, it is always a powerful statement when a politician speaks against their own party and it brings the issue into public awareness. Also, alliances with others in the party on the left can be effective (the small number of far-right Tories, for example, have had a huge influence on their direction, to the point of the most ugly of policies being enacted).
Importantly, Jeremy's constituents speak highly of the way he works tirelessly to represent them and it would have been easier to be elected to continue to serve them as a Labour candidate.
I don't hold a view about whether Jeremy should, or shouldn't, have stood as an Independent earlier. I expect he would have thought through the 'pro's and cons' and I respect his right to arrive at a decision that he felt best at the time. What is of interest to me is now. Now, he stands as an Independent and I wish his campaign all the very best.
@@RebeccaTurner-ny1xxWhat about the most right-wing government in history since 2010?
I will never ever vote Labour. I was hounded out of the party for giving a talk to our CLP about my experiences living and working in the West Bank. Labour is a racist party.
Go Corbyn! Thanks Declassified for the very informative video!
A vote for Jeremy Corbyn is a vote for honesty and decency...
Despite Corbyn's appalling treatment, as party leader, of leftist Labour members who were, like him, falsely accused of anti-semitism?
A vote for Jeremy Corbyn is a vote for dishonesty and intolerance.
A vote for Jeremy Corbyn is a vote for dishonesty and intolerance.
Delusional.
@@Anti-Peaceforcepolice not really...
I wish Jeremy and his supporters all the best on Thursday if I lived in that area I would vote for Jeremy I would never vote Labour again after what they did to Jeremy and to the people in this country who badly needed a real Labour government with real Labour values and that is what Jeremy stood for god bless Jeremy ❤
Same here! It is In no small part that starmer and his accomplices denied us the supportive government JC could have created and inflicted 5 more years of misery on us with the cons! He did it for his own power hungry interests and nothing more!!
@@janewright2800 spot on
@@annenunney9907🤞✊️
Let's go Jeremy!!!
Last time in Glastonbury people across the world watched his popularity when the crowd sang joyfully OH JEREMY CORBIN 🎶 no politician ever had such gesture of appreciation.
We need him back as PM.
And it was an absolute echo chamber. The public rejected him in two general elections
@@jamescooke6032 rejected Labour. Now as independent it may change. 🤞
@@user-eb4vr1zr8x well... He won't be in goverment if he wins now or have any real power. If people wanted corbyn they should have voted for him in the last two elections!
@jamescooke6032 The corrupt, billionaire owned media lied and smeared him to get their billionaire loving barsteward, Johnson, into power.
@jamescooke6032 The Labour vote was 40% and 32% in those two elections. It just didn't translate into seats. The Tory vote was 40% in 2019 which resulted in a majority of seats.
Jeremy Corbyn has worked hard for the people of Islington. It is now for the people of Islington to get him reelected.
Please please please Islington North, vote for JC...
Fingers crossed for Corbyn. England needs him in parliament. Vote Independent or Green wherever you live in the UK. Send a message that Billionaires and Corporationa are not Kings to be bowed down to. Send a message that you are not slaves to Billionaires.
Don’t vote Green they’re part of wef
I really hope Jezza and Faiza win their seats.
& Andrew Feinstein defeats the Brylcreem poster boy in his own constituency.
WISHING JEREMY CORBYN AND ISLINGTON VERY BEST VICTORY.
EVEN ENGLAND AND HUMANITY NEEDS JEREMY CORBYN IN PARLIAMENT AND GOVERNANCE
Vote Jeremy ❤
Vote for the greatest man of honesty, peace, and unity 🤝 ✌️ 🙏 ❤️ Jeremy Corbyn ❤️
Go Jeremy Corbyn!
C'mon Jeremy Corbyn as an Independent is awesome. Lets Vote him in! ❤🍉
Please share this everywhere!! The ordinary British people need him !!
Jeremy Corbyn is a Bright Light in the Black hole of Politics
Black holes are dark. All visible light is sucked into them. Likewise with Jeremy, who is not campaigning for Starmer to be PM only because Sir Keir kicked him out.
Mr Corbyn is a decent, prepared, HONEST Member of Parliament. Very few MPs are anything like him, all self-serving careerists.
I cancelled my Labour membership soon after Mr Corbyn was suspended.
Being an MP is not a job for him, rather it's a CALLING, a VOCATION. Period.
I wish I lived in Islington North so I could vote for him.
Failing that, I will be canvassing for him this week and next week.
❤
I cannot imagine Jeremy Corbyn losing. If i was in Islington, he would have my vote. I just hope that Kier Slimer's labour loses big time.
They are 25 points ahead of the Tories in the polls but Corbyn should win his constituency…maybe
I wish he would come to Warrington ❤ I voted for him when he last ran for PM❤
Great interview
Lets go Jeremy !
Come on Jeremy!!💪💪
Vote for Jeremy ..Independent.--
MATT KENNARD, i first sawyou, well, really saw you when i watched you on novara talking about international aid etc, i will never forget you and have shared you with tens of thousands just in this year, you have a huge following here in australia.
A new left wing party badly needed as both Tories & Tories (labour party) are 2 sides of same coin
The Workers Party is already made, and laying the groundwork for the future
Well there is the workers party with George these things take time to grow but I agree we definitely need a different party for us not the rich
@@annenunney9907 I agree I'll be voting WPB they have recently put a candidate in my constituency.
@@mysterymaverick1982 good for you they are not in my area so I am voting green
@@annenunney9907 exactly what I would of done if noone was standing
Good look to JC , a decent man, my two kids and my ex wife who live in the area are all voting for JC.
The world need honest, clean politicians to replace those corrupted in power.
Praying for Corbyn from Malaysia.❤🇲🇾🇬🇧
Genuine honest guy, one true man for the people.
JC for islington north vote independent don’t give starmer a mandate give him accountability
Jeremy would have been a better prime minister than a shifty starmer.
You mean kid starver 😎
@@belfastaWhat do you mean? 🤔
Corbyn would never had been prime minister because he was so unelectable.
I am from up north west and a long time member of the Labour Party . I had campaigned and fought local elections. Sense Corbyn was ousted I had cancelled my membership. Now I support the Green party. Good luck to Jeremy.
Love Jeremy Corbyn.
I know they have Corbyn behind in the polls but that's okay - He was always going to start from behind but i'm confident he'll win this seat as the word spreads and the volunteers descend on Islington.
I really wish Jeremy would start his own party, right now I hope he is re elected as we need Starmer to be held to account.
@sophie333c: For what, his refusal to call a ceasefire because Hamas had no intention in favour of one but instead supported a temporary pause in hostilities to allow aid for the victims of the conflict in Gaza that was backed by the UN Security Council? 🤔
@@stevenpaulgoulding No, it’s not about Gaza, it’s the fact that Starmer is a compulsive liar, and backstabber. You can’t trust him, he is a puppet for the WEF etc, also he can’t tell the difference between a man and woman!
What is good for one people is good for all peoples. From Spain, I wish Jeremy Corbyn luck and success. ✌🏽
#voteCorbyn ❤
I'm very worried that Jeremy could lose his seat to labour because his constituents don't realise he has left.
Such a decent …decent genuine man
Oh I hope so. Starmer will go mad. He'd rather beat Jeremy than beat Sunak.
With you Jezza. Go get em!!
But Blair did sack George Galloway. He was one of the most vocal, if not most, against the invasion and occupation. Still to this day the "Labour" party has not recognised their grotesque treatment of him.
Blair still maintains he was right to bend over for Dubya
Galloway is vile and supported wars and brutal dictatorships. Galloway is pro war on the other side.
Corbyn is different to Galloway.
Same with Ken Livingston 😊
He should have picked a different colour to red for his posters. Unfortunately, many people will see that as him being Labour.
I love JC and he is the reason I joined the labour party and I left when they kicked him out but unfortunately JC does not have the minerals to start his own party. JC is to kind hearted and he has too much integrity to fight in the gutter like the rest of the politicians.
Corbyn , any time
Corbyn stayed loyal to Labour way to long. I've never understood why. Anyway I hope he wins.
Brilliant report!👍❤️😊🌹🇵🇸
Loved him for over 40 years Jeremy top dude
Workers party.
I’m an ex Tory now going reform but Jeremy deserves to win as he’s a hard working mo and ,what labour did to him and the country as beening no opposition to the Tory’s ,,and removing Jeremy from his party was disgusting.
Agreed.
Jc 4 Islington north ❤
Oh Jeremy Corbyn Oh Jeremy Corbyn ❤ I hope this Thursday will bring victory to Jeremy and many of the independent people. Backstabber Starmer cannot be reward for how he treated decent people like Jeremy Corbyn ,he has ruined Labour for a lot of us.
Were I in Islington north the man would have my vote already in the bag. How he maintained his steadfastness and disposition after all that’s been heaped on him is a miracle. The man’s a giant.
Wish I could vote for you Jeremy all the best from
Ireland 🇮🇪
Corybn is really a great man, a great leader.
Starmer can't get away with what he did to Corbyn and all of us.
Not even Blair stooped that low. He only left him on the backbenches.
@@lemsip207 remember all the energy they put into those two elections to keep Corbyn out of number 10. Why would they do all that just to hand the keys to starmer a few years later unless starmer is controlled opposition IE a Tory plant.
The more the merrier, split the Starmer vote
If Jeremy doesn't win it will show how fickle the people of Islington are. How on earth anyone can even consider voting Labour / Starmer and therefore condone genocide is beyond me.
The problem is the majority of Mr Corbyns supporters who would love to have him as their MP, don’t live in Islington North, and the recent telephone poll, albeit only 500 people, has put him second place to the Labour candidate.
Well they’ll soon realise their error because they will not be serviced by the Labour Candidate. The error will be learnt, when they need the MP to support them!!!
Well done to the smart people of North London for backing
J C.
From a fellow Londoner.
❤ good work Matt
He should have stood when it was clear this was going to happen. He missed the bus and we are all screed now .
I'm a 65 year old Socialist, the son of a Labour Party Socialist Employee from '45 to '76...
I had Such High Hopes until Keir Stalin became a total 💩!!!
I'm in the South West with a career Labour MP who now refuses to engage with me because he is Brown Nosing Schtarmer!!!!
I'm Voting Green Down Here As Many Socialists can see what a Schtarmer Government will do to our Working Classes.....
It's going to be More Of The Same.....
He gave the youth hope and the nation dashed those hopes.
Thank you Declassified
VOTE REFORM ❤💯❤💯❤
Never again to the New Labour party !!
This man is so sensible and special . I love his dedication and truth.
You will win my friend 🧡
Love Jeremy ❤
Power to the people. Go JC 💪
Support JEREMY CORBYN !! Not slimy starmer .....
CORBYN ❤
We need more honest politicians JC is one of them.
Vote for Jeremy! I would if I could 100%
Independent!!
Yes 👍🏼
I will NEVER vote 4 Labour ever again - not after what they did to JC (& their BS 'foreign policy’ !) u did the right thing Jez ❤ people of this constituency PLS PLS PLS VOTE JC 🙏🏼 as that kid said "he is the most honest politician we’ve ever had" ❤️❤️❤️
Voting Reform on Thursday as I’m sick and tired of what a certain community is doing to the U.K. 😢
His brother Piers stands here in Bermondsey & North Southwark ...... oddly, no leaflets have been put through doors. Good luck JC ........
For the country's future, please vote independent !!!
Excellent
Jeremy Corbyn ♥
Corbyn will walk this, labours support will seriously decline this week, too many dangers from Labour.
All good people would vote for this great leader Jeremy Corbyn. Vote Corbyn, his a good man with a good heart.
Way better than that Sir Starmer fooI
If Corbyn had started a party, the media would have ignored them and do their best to play it down.
Congratulations 🎉
*Î live in Spain and I see Islington North has similar weather.*
Stop labour having their own Rishi as a MP. Another millionaire wants enter the parliament to help privatise the NHS
No mention of Galloway. Corbin and Abbott should have joined the Workers Party. By the way Fonthill Road is not the same. Born and brought up in the area ❤
the campaigning leaflets are in red...it looks like a Labour flyer. You need to change it!
Excuse me for being an eejit, i’m not even a new labour councillor, but i saw it coming and i told them so and why (Brexit, bollocks it ended up as vote on whether or not we live within a democracy) on the doorstep. But they were too busy delivering junk mail…
If I'm reading your comment right I told them the same. I said basically many people send their children to fight wars in the belief we are spreading democracy. I said the 2nd ref idea flies in the face of this and people feel as though we aren't a democratic country with that policy. I also said it was a deliberate attempt by Keir (who came up with the 2nd ref policy) to throw the 2019 general election and ensure jeremey never becomes PM. I was told I was stupid etc. All turned out to be true and I called it at the time not in hindsight.
