- In the first episode of The Racket, journalist and author Matt Kennard speaks to former Labour leader and Member of British Parliament Jeremy Corbyn. They discuss US secret service and mainstream media attempts to derail his leadership, US/UK support for Israeli genocide in Palestine and the upcoming UK election.
The Racket is a series of interviews based on the book The Racket: A Rogue Reporter vs The American Empire by Matt Kennard. The series examines the power of the US empire around the world and its attempts to control nations via war and economic strangulation.
Throughout the series Matt Kennard and guests will investigate the violent colonial beginnings of the most powerful nation in history, the tightening of its global stronghold post World War II, the crushing of dissent via CIA interference and its various ongoing wars around the world from a range of perspectives.
Matt Kennard is co-founder and chief investigator at Declassified UK, a news outlet investigating British foreign policy. He was a fellow and then director at the Centre for Investigative Journalism (CIJ) in London. He has worked as a staff writer for the Financial Times in Washington DC, New York, and London. He is the author of two acclaimed books: Irregular Army (2012), The Racket (2015) and Silent Coup (2023).

JC has been the target of so many smear campaigns, it's just remarkable that he finds the energy and will to keep fighting.

😂
@@SHB77784 you poor soul.
So true and yet he was called too weak to be primeminister! I have yet to see anyone more resilliant who still cares about his fellow humans
@@janewright2800part of the smear campaign against him.
JC is a people's PM that we never had! 😔💔
Thanks very much MK and JC for all of your endeavours. You are heroes to humanity.
JC really is the best of men 😊
JC should form a new party and unions should support him
George G wants him to join the Workers Party and offered him the leadership! Here somewhere.
You've opened so many eyes. Both of you. Thank you so much and solidarity from Ireland 🤝

This country missed a trick not electing Corbyn as PM. And the majority of people will regret that for decades.
Exactly like US did with Bernie Sanders ...twice.
If he did get elected parliament would have just blocked every legislation he tried to put through. I imagine he would have been able to do some good, but the reality is this is bigger than just one person
Legend! Thanks for your humanity Jeremy.
🖤
I wish I could meet Jeremy Corbyn, shake his hand and profoundly apologise to him. I was a supporter, but this stance on Brexit made me sour and conflicted, ready to embrace the lies of the smear campaign orchestrated against him. They made me “see” an alleged dark side and convinced me he was not fit for office. When he was removed from the party, I was almost meh with the whole situation. It’s only because of the recent tragedies and the genocide in Gaza that I started digging more into the Israeli influences and why it was so difficult to call for a ceasefire… Long story short, I connected many dots and saw very vividly all that had happened around Corbyn. Many times in these past months I thought about writing to him, but as a perfect nobody I don’t believe I would be able to reach him. I’m just so happy, almost in tears, that Islington was still able to come together with their support and vote for him so resoundingly ✊🏻
Fair play to you... join his peace campaign or something, I bet you could get to meet and shake his hand if you go to Islington
Brilliant interview. So glad Jeremy is up for the fight
🖤
Great interviewer . Great interviewee.
This country needs a lot more of both.
A proper journalist interviewing a proper politician.
i guess we are lucky to have lived to see such a thing.
Journalist has curious black/white diction..
WOW....the end was like that of an Avengers Movie! Love Jeremy...truly, real life heroes don't wear capes
Thankyou Matt for all the effort your putting in exposing Evil to make the world a better place. Thankyou Jeremy after the campaign of smear & lies against you and hard work exposing Evil and promoting peace. Thankyou Students and like minded people everywhere for helping the man made famine and Genocide victims of Gaza.
🖤
Corbyn is too kind when talking about the people that destroyed his career
They didn't destroy him though hence why he still lives rent free in certain heads. 😊
@@jake751You'll have to try again.
There were British soldiers saying that if JC became PM they would take over the government, basically a military junta. It says more about them than anything I can say.
It is amazing how Matt Kennard carries all these secrets, witnesses the worst of human nature, and continues to expose the very bowels of hell. This would wreck a weaker soul. Thank you, Matt Kennard. May you continue to find the cosmic strength to speak truth to power and expose state secrets for the good of us all, and may history honour your work by making a better future for us all.
🖤
Capitalism cannot be made to work in the interest of workers and will not be voted away. States are the guarantor to capitalism, politicians it's handmaiden and workers it's wage slaves.
What a wonderful sentiment.
@@YIASEMIDE
It would be a wonderful sentiment, if true..
@@FizzVizardyou poor soul 😢
Thank you for this excellent interview...What kid starver and his cowardly thugs did to JC is unforgivable, i for one will never ever vote for the pink so called labour party ..THEY DISGUST ME ..
The political state of the world has 🤞 opened everyone's eyes to the cesspit of stench that is US international influences and the complicity and compliance of Europe and the UK in particular.
This man is so vitally important because he knows SOOOO MUCH.
My god, our hill to climb is steep.
But true and honest journalism helps.
Thanks Matt.
I'm gonna check out that book 👍

The worst of of the worst influences emanates from where the current genocide is happening, in full view of the international community.

Quality journalism, something so rare that it's now remarkable. Corbyn remains a giant.
🖤
A giant... He will return to the back benches where he will be insignificant. Like he was for 30 years.
@@jamescooke6032 How's secondary school going?
@@winstons2024 wonderful comeback. Maybe next time try addressing the point. He's not a member of a party, he's a one man backbencher who will just take enormous gratitude in saying "I wouldn't have done that". A man who is responsible for two tory general election wins, one of which was the worst result for around 100 years. a man whos own mps voted no confidence in him, in huge numbers.
.... A giant......
Speaking of giants, you sound exactly liek the DNC hacks here in america lmao the similarities are quite astounding and the hate runs deep with the likes of Clinton @@jamescooke6032
More please from Matt Kennard. Thank you Jeremy.
The country is controlled by outside forces.
Liking how this was filmed too, good production.
Yes, the UK is not a sovereign country and so its 'democracy' is a sham.
You just know that when Kier Starmer was asked about giving a blank check to Israel he said yes.
Corbyn is a sensible, knowledgeable, honest and moral human being, so obviously that's why he wasn't allowed to be Prime Minister. We can't have good men in our British politics now can we?
My Thoughts entirely!
where can you have them?
Is 8:30 sensible?? He just states there was a way to get Saddam out of kuwait like its a fact and doesnt explain it at all and that is sensible???

The most principled leader the Labour Party has ever had. No wonder the establishment would NEVER let him near the corridors of power!
we got close, the fight isn't over
Adolf Hitler had principles. It rather depends what the principles are wouldn’t you agree.
@@ianbarnes8593oh be quiet - don’t even mention that name in the same sentence as Corbyn
Incredible interview. Good questions and straight honest answers.
Whats amazing is that there are certain centrist (but they call themselves left wing) youtubers who insist that the Labour right wing didn't plot against Corbyn
The proof is out there but they can't handle the truth.
They didn't quite....He was re-elected to Parliament as an Independent M.P. Good luck to him...and Diane Abbot. Starmer didn't quite manage to get rid of them...More power to their elbows
Outstanding. The setting, the intro, the overall format and of course the interview itself - superb. Sober and serious as it should be during these times. I look forward to what's to come.
We missed our opportunity with this great man
And also America missed out on having Ron Paul as their leader. Robert Kennedy's son might have been a great choice but for his sudden conversion to Zionism.
@@den264exactly
❤😢
Ron Paul supports unregulated free market m8 @@den264
Would have been the best prime minister that British people could ever have had
So glad to see you get your own channel/page! Your an amazing journalist and very easy on the eye😉✌️
Totally brilliant
Watching from New Zealand with gratitude and respect to you both
Great interview by Matt and honest answers from Jeremy who has always dared to be a Daniel, his services will always be required. Two flames. Thank you both very much
🖤
While we have FPTP, protest votes against Labour by voting for Indy / Green candidates will change nothing.
Jeremy and the Unions breaking from the Labour Party and forming a new movement would mobilise all of the support he has around candidates across the country that choose to run under his banner. And effectively delegitimise Keir's neo-liberals and make them a version of the Lib Dems.
We NEED one movement like this, and the Unions would offer the logistics / funding / backing / legitimacy for this. Much like a ... errr ... Labour Movement.
Top journalism Matt❤
Britain the world the worse for Corbyn not been PM
The ability to remain calm in the face of opposition is admirable not to mention knowing history. Look at the US "hopefuls" in comparison!
Yep, JC is on a much higher level; no comparison really.
This was so good. Loved the intro, the big text and sound effects. Matt asked about everything pertinent and JC answered directly, with clarity. JC mentioning Nyerere at the end there makes me happy.
🖤
History will smile on JC and his detractors will be forever known and seen as the bastards they are
Especially blair and Mandelson
I miss Corbin's mind and heart in labour and front-line politics.
Always nice to see Jeremy being interviewed he can actually give straightforward answers unlike Starmer who looks like he’s overheating when asked anything.
🖤
The reason why Starmer looks so nervous and heated when posed questions is that he has to watch his P's and Q's . He must at all costs vere away from anything thst might be construed as being anti Israel.
A true hero
A man full of integrity passion and peace
The people are *still* with you Jeremy..even more so now
The greatest prime minister we weren’t allowed to have 💔🌹🌹🌹
🖤
❤
And we know which powerful group made sure of that ! z's
Very True we were robbed of a marvelous opportunity to make a difference in the World!
Thank you Mr Jeremy Cobin with the truth 💯 well said. 🎉🎉🎉❤.
🖤
"I'm here and ready for service".....that why we love you Jeremy, the peoples Prime Minister! Great journalism as well Matt! ❤🎉👏🏾
This man could have changed the world .
That's why the establishment crucified his character 😢
He’s made a huge impact
Like he said the seeds of thoughts could spread far
They have he has a massive following
It's so good to hear political coveragr that's more than the day to day horseracing. Genuinely some great worldly insight to be gained from these 2
People who agitate for war would never dream of fighting in that war personally. What kind of people conspire against those who are for peace - for saving thousands of lives?!
Saving thousands of lives - and thousands of ££££
psychopaths by choice.

@@mychannel3774Yup! The Zionists.
From America with love to Corbyn. Keep up the good fight.
Thank you Mr. Matt Kennard .. excellent interview. Mr. Jeremy Corbyn is most decent politician in UK history.
Tony Benn ?
An amazing, honest man who was vilified due to his humanity. History will surely give him the regards he undoubtedly deserves.
So true! Isn't it sad that compassion and kindness is looked down on as a weakness when it's a huge strength
He's already received a couple of International Peace Prizes.
Excellent stuff, thank you, you wouldn't get such lucid discussion from many other politicians
2 GOOD MEN😊😊😊😊
🖤
Bring back Jeremy 👍👍
Matt: Always a great job!
Thank you Both.

Matt: "How powerful is the British-American Project?"
In any particular moment that's not important, what's important is that it's a long-established & entrenched mechanism that can be roused quickly & quietly to achieve a particular role & then resume its slumber.
When Labour canvassers came calling to ask for my vote in the upcoming election, I told them I couldn't vote for them since they knee-capped Corbyn. Their spokesman sneeringly denied it. And I sneeringly slammed the door in their faces.
I will be doing the same, if they don’t notice my Jeremy Corbyn poster!
Ha good on you both!!👏👏👏
✊🏽👍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
How the hell does this only have 20,0000 views after 24 hours. People need to share this with every single person on their contact list. And in fact we need to send all content of Matt's, lowkeys, double down news etc truth telling....to as many people as humanly possible
How has this had so few views?!
Send the link to who you know! Like, comment, subscribe! In these times it is how we (easily) accomplish spreading truthful journalism! When I listen to these rare truth tellers in our wilderness of mirrors, I have to ask myself "Why doesn't every single person listening like this????? This is how we (not someone else) spread the word! Smash the like button! Easy! and so much appreciated by the journalists who take extraordinary care and effort to bring us truth.
Marxist waste of space, that’s why
@@eyedownload - How to spread the BS - hit & miss! 😂😂😂
Thanks Matt Kennard. Brilliant interview! Vote Independent Left!
Great interview Matt, I have just got The Racket 2nd edition, I will get The Silent Coup next!
(it may take a while to read as it's a chonky book!)
I doubt Sunak or Starmer would be as well informed and eloquent as Jeremy!
Matt, I really liked how you gave him plenty of time to answer questions and ellaborate which is rare nowadays, I learnt a lot from both of you!
I was also disgusted that so many foreign powers said JC "wasn't allowed" to be PM!
I wish we had a local MP like you and I think you would have been a great PM!**
Good luck in Islington North Jeremy!
Liked & Sunscribed!
** hopefully you will have another chance if we ever get the real Labour Party back!
JC is so connected with people in all walks of life. He has truly lived too rather than cacooned in the bubble of Westminster like alot of Mp's. Absolutely brilliant interview. Thankyou!!
Fn A Bruv, what a fighter! We need more people like him on this earth.
🖤
Always delightful to hear a man of honour, and morallity. Jeremy Corbyn is our prime minister of hearts.
....and minds.
💕he is
JC you are the hope we have for a better future of Britain and better relationships with other countries, but the political elites did not let it happen. May the future be one where we create hope around the world and one where no child or parent in this country goes hungry.
Watch Labour Files by Aljazeera - it will make you want to help change the politics in Britain!
That should be shown on mainstream media. Eye opener
Thank you both.
What a HERO
10/10, literally everything I wanted to know from Corbyn.
💯 Respect ✊ The world would be a different place if Jeremy Corbyn was Prime Minister of England. A world for peace and not war 🙏 great quality interview
He wasn't qualified &actually too lazy to cope with the leadership of the party.
@@MrBuffalo2🥱🥱🥱
The system is more powerful than any one man .
He’d help
Courage and determination to you Sir, the truth us with the people, the regular and the oppressed, and the truth will prevail
“I’m gonna be around; I’m available for service.”
Thank you Jeremy ❤
🖤
Subscribed after your first question 👍👏🏼
Essential interview.
The World will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch without doing anything.
Watching this after Jeremy Corbyn has won his seat (Islington North) with a substantial majority and Julian Assange has been released and is home in Australia. I gloatingly say it is vindicating to hear Jeremy Corbyn is (As always) on the right side of history!
love and compassion will win.
🙏
Thank you for this important interview. I hope it is seen widely
Let's see how long this stays on TH-cam.
Wish JC would have joined the workers party but i think he knows the smear campaigns that would come with it. Matt you should interview GG.
George Galloway is a chronie of the Popes..... That lets me know all I need to about GG. ...... Be mindful of where you are being led
Love love love Jeremy Corbyn. Britain does not give him the respect he deserves. He should have been PM.
The establishment did everything in their power to stop JC, controlled MSM propaganda worked wonders
Best PM we never had😢.
That's exactly what I just said😲
But let's have hope that there is an epic comeback of Jeremy on its way.
Yet
Thank you ever so much. Hero's of the free world. All my love and respect. 🪶
Finding the truth will lead to justice
Interesting interview. I almost didn't watch it because of the 'dark web intellectual' aestethic, but thanks.
There's hope 🙏

What a superb interview! Huge respect for Matt Kennard!

You are a wonderful interviewer Matt, and this chap Jeremy Corbyn has shown immense courage and determination despite having been crucified for endeavouring to raise awareness about the evil that pervades our world. ❤❤❤
Gosh I do admire both these men.
Important conversations had and hoping much more of the general public resonates sooner than later!
🖤
Thanks so much for posting
❤brilliant ❤
Great interview. Jeremy as eloquent, knowledgeable and principled as ever. The most decent man in parliament whose very presence puts the likes of Sunak and Starmer to shame in comparison. This is what an opposition looks like ❤️
Thankyou, Matt Kennard, for this terrific interview with Jeremy Corbyn: a really interesting and informative exchange between two truthful, honourable men.
In Solidarity.
Matt is a very intellifent, articulate & knowledgeable journalist, which shows in everything he does and exposes. This was a fanrasric interview, great questions and as always, Jeremy is homest and has a brilliant memory and has always maintained decency, integrity & stuck to his principles in everything he does.
Two great men. 👏👏
🖤
He's not honest, he just says what you want to hear.
@@FizzVizard Jeremy Corbyn is unlike any other politician in parliament.
He's the only one that *doesn't* say what you want to hear.
Time to clear your own ears out.

@@FizzVizardyour psychopath masters are happy you are enslaved to them .
What a legend this guy is!
What a amazing prime minister we could of had this was a really interesting interview it really opens your eyes thank you Matt and Jeremy
An absolutely stunning interview. I love Jeremy Corbyn, he can do no wrong in my opinion, but this interviewer is incredibly insightful, I have never seen him before, but I think I’m going to get the book The Racket. Absolutely fascinating : a fantastic journalist interviewing a fantastic politician, two great minds. (With you every step of the way, Jeremy👍).
