- Grace Blakeley & Jeremy Corbyn talk about her new book Vulture Capitalism - the book you need to understand what is happening in the world around you - and what you can do to change it.
In Vulture Capitalism, acclaimed journalist Grace Blakeley takes on the world's most powerful corporations by showing how the causes of our modern crisis are the intended result of our capitalist system. It's not broken, it's working exactly as planned.
As Ha-Joon Chang says, 'Read this book if you want to make fundamental changes to the world.'
Hosted by Arise - A Festival of Left Ideas.

Grace n Jezza, two wonderful human beings…. Christ knows we need more of them.
Grace Blakely is a brain of our time!! Hope to get her book for Christmas.
check if your local library has it, mine did
What I thought was one of the interesting points in the book, is when she mentioned the Lucas Plan, and how workers came up with an alternative plan, which unfortunately wasn't followed, instead the company being sold off, chopped up and moved around various owners in a series of mergers/aquisitions. This highlights that in capitalism, there is planning, but its assumed to be something that only the owners and top stratum of managers can or should take part in, but this isn't the only way it could be.
Great conversation!! I'm continue to be angry that all our utilities are privatised!! Time to fight back and change these greedy, relentless profit making systems
Brilliant conversation! 🙏
I so enjoyed this conversation!
Its nothing short of a crime what the rancid British establishment did to this man. Yes, he could have been wiser/stronger in how he fought it but it still gets me ANGRY AF to this day…...
Not enough showing of the film oh Jeremy Corbyn the big lie. He was attacked by the press, USA army our bbc everything was thrown at him. When you type his name it, it doesn’t come up until the last letter. Some paultry name like Wes …….. barb
Actually, it was the greedy and uninformed British public who failed to support Corbyn. Truth be told, we don't deserve him, we deserve Starmer or lil' Rishi, that's about right for our hyper-individualism and entitlement,
Israel lobby...put anger there
Can recommend Grace's book - just finished it. Well researched and with an election coming up there are plenty of points one can use in opposition to the rants of the UK media which will undoubtedly rank up against anything that gives a hint of socialist common sense.
Imagine how wonderful this world could be if only people like Jeremy and Grace were in "power" (for want of a better term) everywhere. Thank you.
'What is normal' Thanks Jeremy. And I have just ordered the book looking forward Grace well done on that. We needed that
So much insight, so many good ideas
Great interview
Oh, Jeremy Corbyn. I'm so pleased you exist. I realise you realise sharks circle you
ready to prey on any ambiguous words. Keep on keeping on x
Excellent talk, thank you. Grace you are such a great leader and Jemery, sure your not bad yourself. Solidarity from Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤❤ best of luck to anyone on the left running for election in the UK and Ireland in the next few weeks!! Pace yourselves ❤❤❤
Excellent output. Thank you. We don't hear about corporate welfare enough. These deals between governments and business have little transparency. It's a major block to democracy.
The nefarious interests are consolidating though, that's the crucial thing all the alt economists are missing.
Soon it will be too late.
You have to look in the right places for the alt economists, but they are there! Dont get deflected by the mainstream deluge.
Just keep Left.
Two great speakers.
Thanks
Great conversation between two exemplary human beings.
I live in Canada. It is basically a capitalist society like the U.S. but with a lot more socialism like many European countries. Most poverty is in rural areas, esp. in remote native communities. Their old way of life has been 90% destroyed but there are very few modern jobs.
Many thanks!!
JC & Grace are amazing ⚠
Na just Grace.
@@KevenHutchinson-gt1nnplease get over yourself
@@alanhat5252 no just Gtace
Love Grace. She meets the moment with style ❤
Watched from Ontario Canada
This was awesome thanks
Thanks! I needed this good antidote to Ms. Nukeland.❤
How did she infect you?
Grace is awesome 👏🏽
Socialism for the rich, capitalism for the rest
No quarters for the rest. But Companies can "experiment" until they run without workforce.
that we can change out...
❤
So refreshing to hear Jeremy again. Been a while for me. Imagine if he was leading Labour in the upcoming general election? Sir Keir has been handed this on a plate. I'm voting Green.
The Tories would win is the answer. 2017, the tories had only a 12 seat majority, and terrible leadership Under May, and he still couldn't win.
@@KevenHutchinson-gt1nnexploring the Forde Report would improve your understanding of what happened.
Grace Blakeley is Loaded lol :).
Not one single member of the financial industry went to jail after the 2008 financial crisis. Think about that.
Before vulture capitalism kills us, technology is killing capitalism...A perspective first in the world... If you like, make a video on this Book: "Digitalism vs. Capitalism: The New Ecumenical World Order: The Dimensions of State in Digitalism" by Veysel Batmaz, which is available on Internet.
I only wish Grace would speak a little more slowly. I keep having to rewind to clock it all ! ⚡🤔("Green Fire", geoff nelson hill, bookshops)
PS: Jeremy, have you noticed how the very word "problem" has been replaced by the neutered "issue" in the Ne(r)oLib Newspeak?
(George Orwell must be spinning in his grave.)😖

@@ethelminia useful reminder, thank you
We can watch Grace's Boeing hypothesis in real time with the Post Office scandal going through the courts.
The ongoing Boeing crisis is examined in detail by the _Mentour Now_ channel here on RUclips. He's a pilot & pilot instructor so he's coming to it from a different angle but he makes the same findings.
It is always about selling a book.....,
Wow, It sound's like Jeramy may of read this book.
Of course! He's honest enough not to comment on a book he hasn't read.
Does the argument that democracy is the reason not think about left policies?
Arguments don't think for themselves Arguments are the Product, Thinkers have to sell.
@adsdft585, is part of your comment missing?

Capitalism is "free markets" with a little bit of central banking.
ya full of breeze
49:00 Jezza bang on the money, yet again.
How Slavery ended is blatantly obvious if you look at the chronology.
1791 Haiti slave revolt against French
1793 - 98 Britain invades southern parts of Haiti abandoned by French, get evicted by the revolutionaries.
1807 Britain Outlaws the slave trade, but not slavery. It has slave colonies in the West Indies & S America, near Haiti. It also offered freedom to slaves who fought against US independence 1776-83. Sierra Leone was established as a British colony for former slaves (in W Africa, where slaves were taken from) in 1787.
1831 Christmas Slave Uprising, Jamaica
1833 Britain abolishes slavery
1837 Slavery Compensation Act pays out £20 million in compensation

I listened to her case study of Boeing. Bad example anyhow since this company operates in an industry which is not easily entered by new players. The obvious alternative is the soviet or chinese model which is state owned and controlled. The alternative produces a quality product but is it better? Not necessarily. She then started rambling about Donald Trump... I agree with union representation in company management on the basis of the German model...this woman has no coherent solution by the sound of it...
State capitalism is not the only alternative, mate
