After 40 years with Labour, Corbyn is taking them on | Jeremy Corbyn | The Big Picture S4E14

- Jeremy Corbyn was the Labour MP for North Islington for 40 years - his entire political career.
But not anymore.
Now, he’s campaigning against his former party, trying to convince his lifelong voters to abandon the party that abandoned him.
After he was suspended from the Labour Party by his former shadow minister Keir Starmer, Corbyn chose to stand as an independent, and feels like he no longer recognises the party that shaped him.
This week on The Big Picture Podcast, we go on the road to North Islington, where we joined Corbyn on the campaign trail to talk about the challenges of going out on his own, how Gaza changed British politics and his thoughts on what kind of leader Starmer would make.

Jeremy Corbyn has always been the right side of history, he still is now, more than ever before ❤️💯%.
Jeremy should be the Prime Minister, he could bring peace to the Middle East.
A man, and more importantly, a politician, with Integrity. A rare species!
Respect to Jeremy Corbyn. I hope people has the wisdom to vote for you, I am very sorry that people with values and morals are treated unfairly. I wish you the best, thank you.
He has selective morals. Forever an apologist for left wing authoritarian regimes the world over. Left wing authoritarianism good, right wing authoritarianism bad in Corbyn's black and white view of the world.
I am a citizen of the USA. Have followed Mr. Corbyn for years and have the same values. I am rooting for him to win. Would definitely vote for him if I could. Labor and the Democrats have to go.
This is what integrity and intelligence looks like. Starmer had better take a close look.
stammer is a schoolboy bully
Long live Mr Corbyn you are a true keader a good Human being and we will always support respect and pray for you
Jeremy is awesome, I campaigned for him in 2017 and 2019. I hope he wins his toughest battle, against the establishment Labour machine!
Stupidity tries
So did I, he inspired millions , I hope he wins , it will show starmer we aren't going to be fooled any more by the establishment.
@@Towertripsit shows how thick people are who didn’t vote for him, well done to you for making this country a shit show 👏🏻
@@Towertripsjust not true at all, rather the opposite. When JC was campaigning the political knowledge of the younger generation was at an all time high
@@benhannay9042 what do you mean political knowledge?? You mean waving flags for an Islamic terrorist group that massacred 1200 festival goers or making a “boy in a dress” the Labour women’s rights leader? McDonnells economic growth policies would have put the country in as much debt as we are now WITHOUT the Covid and energy crisis
Jeremy Corbyn, one of the only MPs with integrity, compassion and empathy.
What do we have now? Farage crawling out from under his stone.
Don't agree with Farage but he is genuine, unlike Starmer.

@@peterridd3999genuine to a degree, but he’s using the working class population especially in Clacton to get himself elected. In reality Farage would spit on working class people, just like Starmer and Sunak would.
@@peterridd3999But he's not. He has used his position as. Banker to make money by inside trading (his announcement of defeat early on Brexit night caused pound to drop he made money off that) He would sell the UK off to the highest bidder. His only interest is 💵 and he uses racism and pretend Nationalism to do that. He is the most untrustworthy person completely unfit to hold any kind of office.
@@peterridd3999I agree about Starmer I will never vote labour again for what they did to Jeremy but Farage is not genuine he is only out for his self
Why oh why is JC not our PM? When he became leader of the Labour party, I voted for the first time in my life at the age of 52! Because...... Only for the first time in my adult life, did I feel that we finally had a true, honest man with all the right ingredients to be at the helm. Of course, he was too much of a threat to 'The Establishment ', those pompous white imperialist gits in suits, who are dragging our country into the gutters of poverty in every aspect of the word. As always, we are in a David and Goliath situation but I still believe in miracles. Look at Julian Assange....Free against all odds. ❤️🙏🕊️🌍❤️🇵🇸⚖️
As soon as he got a sniff towards no 10 the men in grey suits came out and warned him to back off. Shortly after that he was shafted by the backstabbing backbenchers for antisemitism slurs which was totally disproportionate to what he actually said.
I cry many times he was denied the rightful place of Prime Minister by the thick aspects of the working class
They’re the only ones that support him
@@Towertripsdo you let newspapers do all the thinking for you?
@@Towertrips
so you say... and I'm the queen of sheba
People aren't stupid. Why on earth would they trust a 'Labour' party man.
Come on. 😂
A good person in a toxic environment cannot always do too much.
They don't trust that and demographics shaping. Sane sort of stuff that needs working out.
Poverty causes brain fog and they still got that memo
Up the workers. The actual workers not the dynasty
His defense of Islam directly after a terror attack though well- intentioned (as I believe Jeremy always is) did not go down well with most of the working class. Then apologizing to Zionists lost him another block of votes. All his mistakes were really caused by his kindness, inclusivity and generosity of spirit. Many see this as weakness.
He is actually very far from weak. Just too generous.
He allowed the treacherous Blairites to remain. He should have booted them out. His 'woke' supporters may also not be helpful to his cause with the majority of working class. Many are disturbed by some of the 'trans' issues like sports and women's spaces.
If he concentrates more on domestic issues that affect much of the public directly ie poverty, housing, the NHS, employment rights and minimum wage etc he may yet regain his original support. I wish him well. I hope he has learned a lot in the past few years.
Now he is out from under the yolk of Labour he may flourish.
I think he would be better for the country than any of the other contenders.
Labour, now just another Tory party!
The world needs more politicians like Jeremy Corbyn. Thank you for being normal. Thanks for the simple message of humanity.
Jeremy your the real Labour leader - voting for Jeremy
No, he isn't. Labour is a Trojan horse.
absolutly love, admire jeremy he cares is honest and should have been our pm, but was smeared by mainstream media. jc is the BEST.
I've never cared for politics, or any political party. I joined Labour when Corbyn became leader, I left when he left. Love from the westcountry.
A message to everyone in Islington North: please vote for Jeremy Corbyn - now the Independent candidate - on July 4th. He has been an exemplary constituency MP for over 40 years in Islington North and will continue to serve the people here as he has always done.
With Labour certain to win the General Election, a vote for Jeremy will not make this any less likely -i.e. letting the Tories in, etc. If you voted for Jeremy in the past, please feel confident to do so again on the 4th. Cheers.
PS: remember to take your Voter I.D.on the day.
Heard a lot about Jeremy Corbin for years.. first time hearing him speak and I’m impressed! ❤️🔥
Best wishes. Looking forward to seeing JC joining hands with other like-minded politicians and countrymen 👊
WHAT A LOVELY FRIENDLY PROGRAMME FILLED WITH DECENCY AND AFFECTION WELL DONE
Good luck and all strength to Jeremy Corbyn from South Africa
Of course he can probably one of the most honest politicians out there people can trust.
Jeremy i hope you win in Islington north ❤❤❤
Jeremy Corbyn is the only man in politics who can be totally trusted.
Carry ON jeremy with whatever you do whether you win or loose you will always be the winner in my eyes❤
Great guy
The two party dictatorship model is a disaster. If all MPs were independent it would end the corruption of donations from billionaires, corporations and other shady organizations. Politicians need to be governed by their principles and to stop acting like sheep as most do inside political parties.
The notion of a two party system is somewhat misleading and sadly a very entrenched narrative. People need to wake up to the fact that it is possible to elect 650 Independent MP's. When they realise that, then we'll get some change.
Jeremy Corbyn ❤
Jeremy should just get this election under his belt, and then see if it's possible to build a new party, a sort of phoenix. I'm sure many would be prepared to follow him and his ideas.
Thanks guy for the information..
If I lived in England I would vote for you. Hope you win you are such a good candidate compare to the others.
Wonderful man ❤
Wherever you are - make a difference by voting for Independent candidates only.
Not a supporter of your views but you are genuine. Unlike keir. Wish you well.
Equality, liberty and social justice? Which of these "views" do you disagree with?
@@andrewgoodbody2121Absolutely this!
Jeremy’s insight into events is amazing.Facts we don’t hear on mainstream media.
As said , Stalmer is yet to experience , that he will find unwelcome , Landcycle , Kondratieve . . .
Great discussion.👍👍👏👏
I love this guy, JC. He is a man of intergrity. He seeks the road to happiness and gives to others.
Best Wishes to you Jeremy and to your family and friends.
Wonderful
Life long supporter of Labour, 53 years. Never again.
The prime minister we missed out on
I hope you win Jeremy
See you in parliament.
Jezza. The man who should be Prime Minister...❤

friends of isrel control stamer's labour
stamer supports DAVOS over UK voters.
The best Prime Minister we ever would've had. He will always be our rightful Prime Minister.
With the XL bully across the pond in charge of the labour party now - I'd go independent on the the 4th of July!
A great man! ❤️
Mark Fisher’s ghost is smiling down
Jeremy. Labour has plenty blair ites in the party still. Today. He was a Liar Freemason and multi millionare wolf in a sheep clothing
Labour has never been the same
We needed a man from London.
Sorry I cannot take part in the vote.
I have now embarked on a road of self governance self sovereign. I took voted labour all of my life. Now I just follow Jeremy Corbyn ❤
I rest Jeremy most decent moral honest politician in UK Labour lost my vote adue to bad treatment from fellow Labour Party
Claire Shalt George Galloway Diane Abbot 👍🏼
if you don't support the Palestinian cayse, you are not a working class voter or leftist, whatver meaning one gives to the aforementioned terms. it is a total transformation of the Labour Party to a US type ''Democratic'' Party, which we all know and feel that has no difference whatoever from the Republican Party.
Watch the labour files!!!
What a humble guy!!
No fan of corbyn but I must say he has more integrity than comrade starmer !
What response should Israel have taken?
JC doesn't know Bidens position???? the man is either being very diplomatis or plain ignorant
@@mariam4610 you should try to spelling correctly before you start using ignorance as a insult?
Fantastic interview. How can anyone not ❤ love him. Good luck JC x
How's Venezuela doing with the Socialism that you cheered on Jezza? Where they're shooting doctors who dare to put 'starvation' on death certificates, where they're eating dogs, grass and each other?
No comment? Hmmmm.
Good luck obi wan. May the 4th be with you xxxx
Always voted Labour but Starmer’s lost my vote over his treatment of Jeremy Corbyn
and starmer is more in tune with tory values. He'd see kids starve, he takes money from american health corporations and isreal.
Word and Mrs Abbot and Chris Williamson.
Vote for your constituency! Keir and JC and Labour in London! Keir will lose against Andrew and JC will keep his seat. What JC should do is run new political party like reform. With members who now are independent.
@beemundy-castle8331
Only problem with independent there's too many. There's 4 in my area, so I'm going green in the hope it's 1 seat less
ditto...
Great Video I will never vote labour again because of what they did to Jeremy he was the best Labour leader for many years i have never seen a MP treated so badly in my life it was heart breaking and I and many more will never forgive Starmer and his mob
I would only add one caveat to what you’re said, which I otherwise totally agree with!
- If you’re in Hackney North and Stoke Newington, vote for Diane Abbott!
- If you’re in Hayes and Harlington, vote John McDonnell!
- If you’re in Coventry South, vote Zarah Sultana!
- If you’re in Nottingham East, vote Nadia Whittome!
Not an exhaustive list, but these are four properly socialist leftist former Labour MPs and current candidates that I’m pretty sure Jeremy Corbyn supports, even if they are representing the Labour party 😏
In my country we have recently seen a similar case of political assassination of a leftist (not my favourite, in any case) in which the right, a good part of the left and the media have come together. But don't worry. Social democracy in the United Kingdom is over, as everywhere else. The opportunistic turn to the political centre, the assumption of the neoliberal agenda or participation as a crutch in "grand coalitions" have been the previous step to the electoral harakiri, or collapse, of social democracy throughout Europe, because not only have they failed to attract liberal or conservative voters, but they have lost their left-wing ones in successive and painful electoral bleedings, part of whom don't vote now and another part vote for the populist right. The momentum of Blatcherism 2.0 and Starmer is only due to the fourteen years of conservative oligophrenia: basically Starmer is a mere pilot who fills the vacuum taking the controls of the same machine ‐ the sixth Tory prime minister under other acronyms. But in four years, or eight, Labour is history as a relevant political force. As it already is in France, the Netherlands, Austria, Greece, and almost all of Eastern Europe, and soon in Germany.
@@EmmaVB82 spot on
@@manuelmanzanero5057 you have a good point let us hope over the next few years people will wake up
Corbyn is my choice all day, everyday. The most honest politician in Westminster. ❤
Nah ...George is honest ...
Problem is they absolutely 💯 do not want honesty. 😮 🙄
Aà@@beammeup8458
Pfff! Cough! Choke! What on earth have you been on?
I respect jeremy he is a very honest politician and i wish him all the best❤
The 2017 election was framed as a bit too middle class
Once they realise there's not much cop in the farage side
They will come back.
It's righteous rage. There needs to be a open and intelligent conversation about immigration, being used to demographic shape constituencies.
A truly noble man. Deserved of the term honourable.
Jeremy Corbyn for PM.
Yeah; on 31st. April! We don’t want nutjobs like him!
"I think he (Starmer) is changing his narrative quite frequently" best understatement ever!
his a bigiot
Yes
@@iloveAnastasiababes👈look in the mirror 🤬
ALLAH bless Jeremy corbyn
Corbyn is so solid, a no nonsense decent man that lives by his morals
I used to be a labour supporter without question. However, the treatment of JC when he was leader caused me to raise an eyebrow and take notice. I was shocked at what I saw. I will not vote labour whilst Starmer is the leader that is for sure.
Jeremy is the Real Man ... Growing up watching him seeing that world still have HOPE if the Good people like him are still alive. Love from Japan
Jeremy wasn’t on our voting paper,I would have gladly voted for him,I still didn’t go with the norm,but an independent for our local area,I thought about reform,but I’m so pleased they did so well,but did not get the accolade they deserved.The only good thing was not voting for the Labour Party.
@dianegardner3584 do you live in Islington? If not you won’t see him? I sense that you are a reformer and have less seats than most cars
My working class countrymen that did not vote for JC in the last election are fools
So true shame on them they listen to the right wing media
but they were "helped" by Jeremys flaws and this interview shows them clearly.
They believed the media lies calling him a Russian spy a terrorist supporter & a racist! Shows just how scared they were of Corbyn & his manifesto that would have delivered real change for working people, all fully costed, so Starmer even lied about that!
Instead we got Boris a liar & a criminal!
the working class are voting for reform now.
Fools Charletons and crooks turn on their own.
Corban the best PM we never had ...yet !
A lifelong Labour voter - now a Worker's Party voter . Labour? Never again.
I hope and pray that ‘my team’ voters in Islington North finally realise that general elections are not like the FA Cup final but more akin to the Grand National. Put your bets on Corbyn like your lives depend on it. At home and abroad it’s literally true.
What a legend. Corbyn for parliament!
A star..keep twinkling..you are a light of hope courage and decency for me..
What a decent, honest and principled man Jeremy Corbyn is. We need him in Parliament. Vote Corbyn on 4th July
I wished we had a man like him in Canadian politics. What a shinning light it the midst of dark rooms.
you'd very quickly see your conservatives side with your liberals, and with the entire media apparatus of your state (including comedy shows, petrol head shows, etc) close ranks and declare your candidate, and anyone who likes them, as a dangerous cult, which has to be stopped before they bring tOtAl eConOmIc cHaOs. That either ruling party increasingly makes life unaffordable for everyone that works, crashes the economy, crashes it again, and again, is irrelevant. YOU will be the threat, and 90% of the people you speak with will agree, spouting off talking points in any conversation. You'll find the country offered a bipolar issue that gives everyone a cause to split for or against, and your candidate will be demanded to occupy one side, then the other; that the ruling party adopts both sides at the same time won't be made an issue, if your candidate moves in any direction or any mix of policies to speak to both audiences, won't matter; Chaos. Traitor. Barmy. Bad. Extreme!
You'll endure 5 years of hard cringe as you watch the last chance to save your future poured down the drain in front of your eyes, and most people you'll meet will agree vociferously with whatever media they consume, that you and your like are the 'great threat', and they can't stomach even the thought of it, not for even 30 seconds, "No, I just, I just can't imagine..". They'll complain about what they bring in instead, but they'll stomach it, because the media isn't telling them it's making the sky falling down. They'll endure increased authority, increased rent, increased mortgages, further shrink in wages, more questionable arms deals, less investment, less services, all of that - but your guy? They can't even bear the thought of it, that's extremism!

I don’t fit well with Corbyns politics, but I believe he is a good honest man. A man you could trust and makes a a great local politician MP . I would vote for this man in a Heartbeat if he was standing in my area
Respect...but too little too late. Corbyn was sadly unaware of the forces gathering around him, simply because he's a decent person and will be punished for that, as we all will be.
Jeremy Corbyn, you are a hero. Thankyou for this insight into what the Labour Party did to you.
The following is a true and accurate story about Jeremy Corbyn. He was at the Julian Assange hearing with us on May 20th. When it was finishing, he was with his assistant, and a lady who was obviously distressed approached him. There were NO cameras, so this wasn't a photo opportunity for him. She was one of his constituents, and he took out his notebook with pen and chatted with her for about 10 minutes, diligently taking notes. The lady was distraught, but JC was sympathetic, listened, and promised to follow up. Never been a huge Jeremy Corbyn fan and disagree with him on some issues, but watching this first-hand totally blew me away!
jeremy cares
Vote Jeremy and get honesty not lies

I enjoyed this interview very much. I have been a life supporter of the Labour Party. Never Again!
sir you are the only politician who has integrity and honesty left since late tony benn but the system or regime does not like politician like you
Why is it that people most suited to be leaders ALWAYS get sidelined and backstabbed. Jeremy Corbyn would be an excellent prime minister for humane values, for the people!
Unfortunately, much as I like JC, he's not up to being a PM.
The lobbyists (bribing thugs) call all the shots. Who are they? We all know
Who funds & enables fast-track political career advancements,positions of authority & influence. Who funds/donates to electoral campaigns....

In an ideal world, yes, he can. But this world is very volatile and dangerous. To survive as a country, we need a person with strong survival instincts as a leader. I mean, the difference between a deer and a lion, to put it as simply as possible.
Chris Williamson worked hard for democracy in the Labour Party and deserved more support
Party loyalty should never, ever trump such personal values as "equality for all" and "supreme value of all human lives."
Kudos to Mr. Corbyn for standing up for his values.
Jeremy Corbyn for Prime Minister ❤🇬🇧
He doesn't fit in the this age of Charlatans.
Your well out of labour party Jeremy. It not Labour any more..
They are in the back pocket of Zionist nazies... They forgot solidarity, completely.
Not for years.

Not sure why. He didn't do a lot. As leader of Labour, he let the party's right wing walk all over him, and he fed to the wolves the leftists Labour members who, like him, were falsely accused of anti-semitism.
I'd vote for him if I could...

@@ElizabethMcDermott-cy4cv In what ways did the Labour party (which Corbyn would return to in a moment were the Zionist Keir Starmer to offer) crush the 'underclass' - which I interpret as the poorest of the working class?
A good man.
The electorate want a functioning NHS, good infrastructure and a decent schools. What voter ever demanded the Government commit to a Memorandum of Understanding between Britain and the apartheid state of Israel? Most voters don't know about it and it wasn't part of the 2019 Tory Manifesto pledges, so why was it implemented? Was it purely for the benefit of arms manufacturers and the personal financial benefit of politicians and other interests. How much has assisting the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza cost taxpayers in Britain? We all need to know.
We need to be careful who we call terrorists. Kiaora jeremy corbyn i hope u get voted in. 😊🎉🎉❤
Corbyn supports them.
If I lived in GB and had the right to vote, I'd vote for Jeremy Corbyn undoubtebly.
I too would vote Jeremy Corbyn.
I grew up in a working class family in the north of the uk and labour was part of my upbringing but to be honest watching how the labour party is now
Its not what i would vote for.
With Jeremy Corbyn you know where you stand and what you see is what you get but at the same time a man of compassion .
He is a no nonsence mp and thats what the country needs right now. I wish him well in these elections.
Jeremy Corbyns legacy can be summed up in one word... HOPE.
I was a member of the Labour Party who resigned over their stance on Gaza. I am voting for a candidate who has called for a ceasefire from day one.
I would have summed him up in one word too, hopeless!😂
