@@stephmulliner1184 I've had the council electorates knock on once or twice but never an MP. Funny During the 2019 GE i had hundred of leaflets through the door...not one from Labour and I'm a northerner who in a constituency that's part of the "red wall" that turned Tory after X amount of decades always being red. The Labour MP wasn't even local she's was a stand in.
Totally the nail on the head. It's what's wrong with politics in this country. MPs should be reflecting their constituents' views in Parliament. Instead, they all seem to expect constituents to reflect MPs' views.
The working class have largely been abandoned these past few decades. Globalism and then the EU has forced them to compete with labour willing to undercut their pay and conditions, whether we are talking outsourcing or immigration, and the official figures reflect that. Take home pay has stagnated and working conditions are increasingly precarious. The middle and upper class like their cheap goods, like their cheap services. So when the working class come to the political establishment and say we're struggling, we need help. They turn to them and yell racist, talk to them like idiots. Demonize them when they're unable to compete and end up on the doll. The working poor are constantly being undermined, if not by exploitative work then kept in a permanent state of insecurity with welfare sanctions and forced unpaid labour through the work programme. Insecurity has become a form of entertainment for the country. Endless "on benefits" programmes were people from once proud working class communities struggle for the amusement of others. Pay has been pushed so low that people in work are a bigger welfare recipient than jobseekers, that people who have jobs are having to visit food banks. The political establishment abandoned them and thought they could just ignore them. Then when these people decided enough was enough, if no one will help them they'll take action and vote for what they perceive to be the solution to their problems. The establishment freak out, they demand that they vote the way they want them to... You must be joking? You think you can tell these people what to do now? Even if their actions turn out to be totally wrong, everyone has lost the right to tell these people what to do.
I've been saying this for ages and the Labour advisor to Tony Blair openly admitted they used EU migration to lower working class wages. He's interviewed in the immigration documentary broadcast in December 2015. The Irony of Labour fucking over it's core voters is coming home to roost for them and they deserve everything they get.
Lived in stoke for a while, lots of great friendly people. Here's a little fact though, there are more immigrants/asylum seekers in stoke than in all the town's on the south coast, because it's cheaper to house them in stoke. Perspective starts with where you live.
Its about time the Guardian started to report on the rest of the country and NOT those living in the London centric bubble and that London,to most Britons, is a foreign Capital full of people not representative of the UK.
And the German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and even AmericanEmpires. Iy seems as though you're another one who thinks only Britain had an empire. The British is the only one that broke up with almost no wars and that a lot of those countries that did leave joined a commonwealth.
Watched this and read the comments with interest. I lived there for 15 years leaving in 2013. If I am honest I'm not sure if a brexit will be good for stoke or not. It was painful to watch the city decline at a staggering rate so I can understand why people are so angry and disillusioned. I live in Budapest now and there is a similar mindset here. I hope whatever the vote result is that Stoke recovers, the people there deserve so much more than they are being offered. Overall itbwas a fair and balanced article, however seeing Mohammed Pervez will always send a shiver. Good luck.

One common theme is near total ignorance about what the EU actually is, what it does, how it operates, why it operates, its history and purpose, its contribution to economic activity, its importance in geopolitics, and so on. What an incredibly stupid thing to have a referendum about. Theresa May's Brexit plans are neoliberal globalisation on steroids because the only way to succeed is to massively deregulate, globalise and open ourselves to the world (as supported by 'economists for brexit')... and there's a fair chance it will still leave us worse off overall, whilst at the same time completely fucking over the poor and increasing inequality. Their end goal is the UK becoming a low tax, light regulation, little welfare, offshore free market hub. Goodbye workers' rights. Goodbye environmental protections. Goodbye British industry. Goodbye NHS. The majority of people who voted for Brexit will get the opposite of what they actually want. Whether they realise or not (or admit it), and THEY are going to be the ones hit by Brexit more than anyone else. People have voted against something they're unhappy with (whether right or wrong) and they are only going to get EVEN MORE of it thanks to their vote. It's a fucking shambles.
Typical modern career politician. Out to impose party line views rather than represent the needs of constituents. The Labour Party is an utter disgrace.
Its more accurate to say Labour lost that the Tories won. Tories gained 7% and labour lost 14.3% ...so where did the other 7.3% go? Mostly to the brexit party who gained +6% . Thing is next GE there wont be a brexit party....will be an interesting watch....my bet hung parliament again in favour of Tories.
Just in case it pisses you off. I've made a special effort to let you know that I'm voting out too. So is my partner. So are my parents. I'm an upper working class higher rate tax paying skilled englishman who lives part time in france. Dont choke on your latte will you.
Someone is desperate to keep us in the EU. Now of course, anyone that wants out will be painted as a gun toting nut and supporter of idiots like edl and britain first. This is one of the things that worries me.. If you ignore the electorate , fascism inevitably rises. The last thing we need is idiots like this and this is exactly what the EU is breeding.
when you have nothing, you got nothing to lose. I love this, spoilt middle class students telling the poor/working class what to do Lol the battle was lost before it even started
Trouble is, people who vote in a certain way because they "have nothing to lose", tend to find out that they did have something to lose. Sadly, they usually find this out too late.
Me too :) maybe the people for once will be heard. However if the EU track record is anything to go by if we do vote to leave they will force us to vote again... But lets just hope that its a big enough win to leave the EU, that it will be impossible even for the EU and LibLabCon to ignore.
Brilliant! Stay in the EU to protect jobs... This has helped when EU money (yes taxes I have paid), has assisted Cadbury, Twinnings and Ford to relocate to other parts the world... I think I know how i'm going to vote now...
Indeed. I shouldn't be thinking about what it would be like to gently bend the lady over when there are far more serious issues at hand; but sometimes, just sometimes, game overrides shame.
Breaks my heart it does. From Stoke, moved to America 1960. Lived in Gary, Indiana which became murder capital per capita population in the world. Steel mills finished and city is virtual ghost town. Now to hear of my birthplace being in the dumps. My home was torn down on Gillman. Very sad. Dad and Mum worked in the potteries. Family, what's left still in Stoke. This Yank has a Brit heart. Saddened.
This is pretty stereotypical, I'm an affluent, middle class guy who loves immigration and hasn't done a decent day's work in his life, and I'm voting out.
Going on about the ceramics industry, it's gone. I live in Poole and we had a pretty big pottery business here years ago but it's all gone as well. I don't know why we can't make it profitable though, the clay is in the ground everywhere in East Dorset, you soon realise that when it rains. It's all gone to China, but to be fair though that's where the industry started in the first place.
Nonsense, no connections across the oceans, UK would need to ,England would need to negotiate deals on its own , and try to get a bargain, wait and see how tories flog TTIP to all UKIP idiots who voted for leave. NHS, public services and everything else you hold dear all sold off to the highest bidders or lowest bidder if they're tory party donors. Germany and France already said no to TTIP. UK wants to sign TTIP, I mean England wants to sign it, Scotland will leave the UK if we leave the EU, same with Wales and NI. End of the UK.
Just like the sun readers that have had Murdoch force his views on them. You read one "made up" story by the daily scum, "all foreigners are bad" and then you decide to vote out. when prices go through the roof and you can't feed your family, it'll be to late to change your mind then.
You need to get over yourself. It's a matter of opinion, like voting Labour or Conservative, or maybe Lib Dem. Are you "outraged" when someone doesn't vote for the same party as you? Or do you understand that people have different priorities, different experiences, even different grudges?
@@RadicalCaveman ah, ok, I don't live in the UK so maybe that's why I've not heard it. My colleagues and clients (asylum seekers) didn't understand how I could be left and support Brexit, until I explained the reasons the refugees presumed I was racist.
There's a difference between unfettered immigration and controlled immigration. Essential industries like nursing, care, science and agricultural workers should be allowed in by automatic visa, then educational workers then only consider unskilled individuals
Vote to Leave fair question. I guess it doesn't really arise because I haven't seen large marches protesting against multi-culturalism. A million people marched to stop a war and it still went ahead, for example. On the other hand, our multi-cultural society exists because we had an empire that dominated the world, ditto other former colonial powers. How far back do you want to go? We are where we are, for better or worse. I think for the most part it's been a good thing.
***** "Because there are laws against Racism" that doesn't stop you protesting against a multi cultural society, it just so happens many racists get involved and do stupid things. You would only be arrested if you incited hatred or violence. Of course we're multi cultural because of empire. How can you deny that???! Look at the demographics of the immigrant population (not including EU cits)- Pakistani, Indian, Jamaican, African... the British Empire. Bloody ironic that those that loved the empire are always moaning about it's consequences. There are loads of benefits to multi culturalism. Food for one. Music, literature, philosophy, fashion... an improved genepool. But I suppose you don't care for that...
I worked as a BBC journalist here in 2006 Stoke and Hanley were diving to the bottom then...... under EU rule........so where was the European money then to rebuild the INFRASTRUCTURE... of SOT
2:50 you need to have a connection to the area? Nonsense. There are 350,000 coming in every year and most don't speak English. What connection do they have?
Lifelong labour member I voted out. Free movement is stupid and anti British working classes, it’s a scandal that free movement will stay in place.erm and I live in social housing the vast majority of which is occupied by non British people.
But service men and women go to the back of the queue after having served for years while an immigrant fresh of the boat is housed immediately and this is not central government's fault but local councils, mostly Labour led, who are ignoring the Forces Charter.
Labour has become disconnected with its core voters and have become totally irrelevant in this referendum, as they will in national and local politics, they lost my vote many years past.

Essentially everything he said was objectively and categorically wrong. Rich people loved Brexit. They were funding it after all. They made lots of money from the pond crashing, and they're the ones who won't be effected by the crash.
Just seen one comment, homes are there for people coming into the country. It’s hard to see that a new person let into this country getting 30k in benefits in the first year with all the homeless around. There may organisations that help immigrants CAB, immigration houses etc. When we all know there half a dozen leaving on the streets locally.

@@RadicalCaveman ah, ok, I don't live in the UK so maybe that's why I've not heard it. My colleagues and clients (asylum seekers) didn't understand how I could be left and support Brexit, until I explained the reasons the refugees presumed I was racist.
Yeah, lexit has worked out so well for us now eh?
of course majority want out and it will increase TIME THE BRITISH PEOPLE WERE PUT FIRST
dudson factory now gone talk about turkeys voting for chritmas
As a Leaver, this journalist says it as he see's it. Hats off to him
Scammed

A disaster : (

I personally prefer to Smoke-on-Salmon
This should be fun. I wonder how many utterly Ignorant Stokies will use soundbytes from the Sun, the BBC, Sky and the Daily Mail?
There's a difference between unfettered immigration and controlled immigration. Essential industries like nursing, care, science and agricultural workers should be allowed in by automatic visa, then educational workers then only consider unskilled individuals
I'm out our out out out
we're fucked
+Vote to Leave we'll see how things turn out when the economy takes a nose dive, because blaming immigrants won't wash next time
+Vote to Leave have we ever had a vote on corporate globalisation and our economic system too? Cos that's a major factor of people moving around.
Vote to Leave fair question. I guess it doesn't really arise because I haven't seen large marches protesting against multi-culturalism. A million people marched to stop a war and it still went ahead, for example. On the other hand, our multi-cultural society exists because we had an empire that dominated the world, ditto other former colonial powers. How far back do you want to go? We are where we are, for better or worse. I think for the most part it's been a good thing.
***** "Because there are laws against Racism"
that doesn't stop you protesting against a multi cultural society, it just so happens many racists get involved and do stupid things. You would only be arrested if you incited hatred or violence.
Of course we're multi cultural because of empire. How can you deny that???! Look at the demographics of the immigrant population (not including EU cits)- Pakistani, Indian, Jamaican, African... the British Empire. Bloody ironic that those that loved the empire are always moaning about it's consequences.
There are loads of benefits to multi culturalism. Food for one. Music, literature, philosophy, fashion... an improved genepool. But I suppose you don't care for that...
***** what a sad, bitter person you are.
I worked as a BBC journalist here in 2006 Stoke and Hanley were diving to the bottom then...... under EU rule........so where was the European money then to rebuild the INFRASTRUCTURE... of SOT
All vote brexit party,what have you got to lose,nothing,they will put it right,proper loyal people

2:50 you need to have a connection to the area? Nonsense. There are 350,000 coming in every year and most don't speak English. What connection do they have?
fucking hell that woman is lying to the people in that factory on the end

Lifelong labour member I voted out. Free movement is stupid and anti British working classes, it’s a scandal that free movement will stay in place.erm and I live in social housing the vast majority of which is occupied by non British people.
But service men and women go to the back of the queue after having served for years while an immigrant fresh of the boat is housed immediately and this is not central government's fault but local councils, mostly Labour led, who are ignoring the Forces Charter.
VOTE UKIP
No
Has anyone seen it today, 2024?
REMAIN
DISCHARGE
tellement sordide !!
And this video exemplifies why in 2019 Ruth the labour mp joined the unemployment queue
Vote for Tommy for a future for England!....leave didn't mean leave where is democracy gone.??????? You lost ! What do you want ?best out of 3
Wow this Labour Mp is so so false.
Labour has become disconnected with its core voters and have become totally irrelevant in this referendum, as they will in national and local politics, they lost my vote many years past.
good stuff! they refused to stand up against big business and sent out search parties for cheap labour. its unforgivable. even looking at the labour leadership election 3 of the candiates were fake as fuck
immigrants largely vote labour and are keeping them relevant.
Only Brexit party will give us the Brexit we voted and will bring back democracy.
Remainers remind me of Jehova's Witnesses.Hahahahahaha
Look at the colour of the students jackets
RED
red = danger
deep down we all know it will be a better uk if we leave on wto
Brexit table - workman's bench, remainers table - picnic anyone? I'm a stupid, racist brexitier but I'm sure there's a message there. 4:35
Thatcher's paradise !
The richest 1000 Tories wealth increased 183% from £256bn to £742bn in ten years.
This is what we get !

What would call a " catastrophic failure " ?
@@gordonbradley199 Well expressed, Gordon. The same issues are growing here in Australia...and that's without the absolute bugger - mess of an inconclusive "vote" that you're having to deal with over there. I have immediate family living in Britain, so I'm genuine when I say that I truly hope for a peaceful and progressive outcome for Britain's citizens.
Elimination of the ruling elite would be a great start, but apparently there's laws against that kind of thing, more's the pity.
@@gordonbradley199 Just look at Venezuela as an example of your socialist system working. Socialism always fails when it runs out of other peoples money, not that your comment has anything to do with brexit at all anyway
No tumberlweed blowing down the street ?
Yet ?
uk WOOTED TO LEAVE eu NOW uk IS OUT SO YOU SAID LOUD AND CLEAR THAT YOU DONOT WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH rEST OF eUROPE. OK YOUR CHOICE i AM NOT BRITISH I AM DANISH WE STAY IN EU

IMMIGRATION SURE POINT FINGERS AND 3 WILL POINT AT YOU
8:26 you can hear michael jackson in the background
we need those people
5:45 this man gets it
Essentially everything he said was objectively and categorically wrong. Rich people loved Brexit. They were funding it after all. They made lots of money from the pond crashing, and they're the ones who won't be effected by the crash.
Just seen one comment, homes are there for people coming into the country. It’s hard to see that a new person let into this country getting 30k in benefits in the first year with all the homeless around. There may organisations that help immigrants CAB, immigration houses etc. When we all know there half a dozen leaving on the streets locally.
I don't think you no longer have your core vote..labour the end for you is NOW
