Jeremy Corbyn: 'Things Are Not Going To Be The Same In 2020'

- Aaron Bastani talks to Labour leadership hopeful Jeremy Corbyn about his candidacy and asks what a Corbyn government would mean for constitutional reform, policing, care work, sexism and more besides.
Not only does Jeremy Corbyn have this radical idea of answering questions in plain English, he has an interviewer who has this novel idea that the interview is not about him, asks intelligent issues based questions and lets him answer. It'll never catch on.
***** My thoughts exactly!
Lol it certainly won't catch on with Evan Davis on Newsnight.
***** Increasingly media is becoming more diversified, so these kind of interviews might be deemed more credible and newsworthy by the populous than the stuff you see on television come 2020. ( the milibrand interview albeit painfully cringeworthy was an early indicator of that) So it might just catch on lol
@@7Heaven8ROONEY hahaha that really hasn't aged well
Meanwhile, in 2020, Corbyn is a discredited irrelevance
This is 2020, things are definitely not same
I grew up in the 60's and rightly or wrongly had hope for the future. Most of that has been destroyed, but this man could give those same feelings to my offspring. He is the best thing to happen to politics in my lifetime. I so hope the powers that be don't destroy him. Wake up folks, it's time for change.

'You don’t have to measure everything by the ability of the super-rich to buy Rolex watches'
Jeremy Corbyn
Awesome
We need a true Labour party who will represent working people.
VOTE CORBYN
Musaa2008 For how long do you think he will stay so "revolutionary"? We should have learned from the last century of bourgeois parlamentarism and the recent example of tsipiras guys like Corbyn start realy progressive and revolutionary but as soon as they get elected they come under pressure from the economic and political elite wich forces them to make concessions to big bussiness.
***** That still doesn't mean we should give in to economic and big business elites.
***** he's been an MP for 30 years and has stayed true to his values so far. I think that is about as good as a track record as you could get.
Marco Berni I never said we should i sympathize with corbyn however i'm cautious he migth be another tsipiras.
Steve Stannard You're rigth i don't know Corbyn but being cautious is something wise
''You don't have to measure everything by the ability of the super rich to buy Rolex watches''
He got it spot on again.
This is a great interview. It's nice to see a down-to-earth politician who can logically explain his views without all the PR smokescreen, doublespeak and the plastic personality. I still have little faith in Labour, as they help prop up this ridiculous, undemocratic two party system, and have failed to stand up to the heinous attacks against the poor and the working people by the Tories. However, Corbyn as an individual definitely shows some promise. Brilliant interviewer too. Polite, straightforward and didn't rudely interrupt like so many do nowadays.
+Alice Rabbit "Labour have also been a major player in pushing the policy of White GENOCIDE."
i love how people as stupid as you always capitalise the stuff that they want others to take seriously as if it makes it more serious that it is BIG WORDS
Great interview.
Great interviewer.
Great interviewee.
I like.
Love the man.
Good interview. I'm a big supporter of Corbyn and it's also a very rare thing to see such a great host. Well done Aaron Bastani!
I don't comment much but i'd just like to say that was a really, really good interview. You were asking really tough questions especially towards the end, pushing him just enough to get him interested. I must say though, that i completely agree with JC - the banks and markets can say whatever they please, but if you make people scared for their own or their children's lives as is rapidly becoming the case in places like Greece and others, the markets will have no say in what happens and their TTIP contracts will be worthless. Might sound like fantasy but history has not yet ended, folks.
Totally agree. A brilliant interview with tough questions and actually giving him time to reply.
JC came across really well too.
Benjamin Stubbs whats he offering conservatives down south?
he'll need a lot of them.
daz samuels A conscience?
Frank Parisi that's not going to win votes. What happens in Manchester, Leeds, Blackpool or any other area where poor people require help is of NO interest to Tory supporters on the south coast I garuntee.
***** Greece cooked thier liabilities in 2001 with the help of Goldman Sachs JUST to get into Europe.
Measuring the wealth of a nation by things other than GDP and the ability of the super rich to buy Rolex watches.. Genius.
As a 33 year old cynic, I've been reminded of hope by this man.
+sam skillington Well! I will remind you that you are brain dead.
Jeremy Corbyn 4 Labour leader.
A thousand recommends! Corbyn is on fire at the moment and the media are shitting themselves.
hatton1985 if he cant get tories to come on over, none of that matters.
daz samuels You may be right but if he can win over let's say %5 of those who didn't vote, he could at least block a Tory majority. Also if some of the Tories defect back to the Lib-Dems in the West country that could have a vast impact.
roskruge Exactly, fair good points made. If the Lib Dems also gain voters back from UKIP and the Tories in their old seats. The possibilities are endless. It may seem like we are fantasizing but after all the Tories did only win a majority of 4-5 seats. Ted Heath won the same amount of seats in 1970, although 316 was needed for a majority. So I believe this Tory majority may be the slimmest Tory majority in history. :)
BboyHowey Corbyn's dissafected voters would have to be in the right constituencies. If you live in an area where the gap between Tory and Labour is collosal don't bother voting. Take the South coast as an example.
Fair point. Although in some swing constituencies, labour would only need to gain a few hundred votes. In the South West I beleive Labour shouldn't field candidates in the hope they will vote Lib-Dem. Just a wild idea, for e.g. in seats like North Cornwall, St Ives, Torbay. And maybe vice versa in some constituencies where Labour are the nearest opposition.
Brilliant interview, definitely reinforced my choice to vote for him as leader. Loved the optimistic ending as well, there is a brighter future out there as long as we are willing to believe in it.
TobyJPeacock That is how you win elections. By offering an optimistic vision of hope to the electorate. I believe Jeremy can deliver this and ultimately win in 2020.
TobyJPeacock Things can only get better, eh?
***** Jeremy Corbyn is a rare breed of politician. He's not an Oxbridge educated career politician who's been in the Westminster bubble his whole political life. He's genuine and is one of the few Labour MPs who rejects the neo-liberal consensus.
@Keith Panton It wasn't hard for Barack Obama to win with hope
Because stealing more massive amounts of tax money from people and making the market less free to increase costs and inefficient is a brighter future?
Tell you what he was right about everything wasn’t he
Revlow for PM
Good luck for a Labour win and Labour back in government where Labour belongs and UK needs Labour kindness,humanity to.
Finally, an interviewer who lets the interviewee speak without being interrupted. Really enjoyed the interview, a lot of tough quick fire questions with good honest responses.
gotta hand it to him, 2020 rly isnt the same
Jeremy Corbyn is the only Labour Leadership candidate who actually stands for Labour's traditional MODERATE policies and can win millions of disaffected Labour supporters back into the Labour fold.
Jeremy Corbyn is a man of principle who opposed the illegal Iraq war that resulted in the deaths of more than a million Iraqi civilians and hundreds of British soldiers. He is the only one of the leadership candidates who voted against the Tories draconian welfare cuts. He is a staunch opponent of University tuition fees and the £trillion plus Trident nuclear programme. He supports the renationalisation of the railways and higher taxes for £millionaires.
What's more the majority of British people agree with him on all of the major issues.
Read it here:
www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/the-jeremy-corbyn-policies-that-most-people-actually-agree-with-10407148.html
Jeremy Corbyn’s extreme right wing opponents such as Tony Blair and his followers are closet Tories who infiltrated and hijacked the Labour party. They are politically bankrupt self serving opportunists who are lining their own pockets and are incapable of debating policies. All they can do is hurl insults and abuse.
Peter Franzen Not exactly moderate
m80pls His economic strategy is considered mainstream by economists, give it a google.
IIzRoBzII since when did moderate = mainstream
m80pls I was just saying Corbyn is not some far left extremist.
IIzRoBzII nobody said he was, he's a socialist.
thank you for this, this is definitely one of the very best corbyn interviews, good questions, nice technique, helps people get where he's coming from probably because you actually want to know what he thinks rather than just to catch him out or misquote like all major broadcasters.
well mannered, articulate, and very learned.....Vote Corbyn
A Labour leader actually answering questions rather than distracting the issue... never thought I'd see the day. Corbyn makes Labour a party worth voting for.
This title genuinly aged well
Great interview, well done.
Very good interviewer. That's why we need to get rid of the BBC licence fee. You would think there are only three good journalists in the UK - clearly there are many good ones out there, not milking it.
sick guy!
Great Interview. He's spot on
Well that title aged well
Yea it actually did.
Excellent interview - well done Aaron.
Corbyn needs to get with Steve Keen.
I've been thinking the same thing. Things would certainly be interesting.
Chris Johnson Also Paul Krugman and Joseph Stiglitz.
Jordan Cartmell Who has the Nobel Prize? But I like Keen as well. Say No to Austerity!
Agreed Obomber should return it!
How right JC was!
Excellent interviewer! Congrats for the meaningful questions, specially the one on the tensions between economic growth and ecology.
fantastic interview, very thought provoking!
I believe in God,dear God let Labour leader jc win this election.amen.x
I had always suspected God was right wing.
This Jeremy chap really knows his beans. It's been a long time since I have seen such an intelligent politician!
He was right. They're not.
I will echo the sentiments below in the comments sectioned. Both very impressed by Jeremy, and also with the interviewer and everybody involved with this interview
13:02 fish and chips
A Universal Basic Income may seem complicated to administer and fund. But done properly it could replace most benefits, pensions, tax credits, minimum wage, and all sorts of other government programmes. Making it far simpler over all.
he has a detailed answer for every question.. are most other politicians sleeping all the time, or does he just pay attention more than most ? so used to hearing vague waffle, having detailed, factual and considered answers, in simple, explanatory but not patronising language is unknown:) great.
Funny having this pop up in 2020.
No one saw this year.
really well interviewed. subbed
good interview!
You know what would both encourage growth and be climate friendly? worker coops.
Gotsnks Locke He seems pro coops too which is promising
Y U I’d like to see local government departments and services run as co-ops.
@@AtheistEve hilarious utopianism. As with any other system, co ops have their own fair share of corruption and nepotism.
T H Less likely because financial decisions and appointments would have to be voted on. If you know of worker co-ops that suffer from corruption and nepotism, they aren’t doing it right.
"........trust me."" I think I do.
well, he was right
Certainly disagree with growth being at odd with climate justice. Britain is very much ripe for employment through innovative technologies and research, we could generate low-medium skilled jobs in modernising housing, working towards carbon neutral buildings. Glad JC is in knowledge of this but I think he should more explicitly link his keynesian economics with CC
Wow this just blew me away never before have I heard a politician answer questions like that. Seems like an honest guy, nothing will change though because even if he does become the next prime minister they will never let him implement his policies look what happened to the Greek prime minister who had to resign why? because they wouldn't let him implement his policies.
He answers every question with ease does not bulshit like other MP s
Don't think it's about redistributing wealth, we wouldn't need money if there was true love in society!
+Mark Heath man love...gay boy
I used to be an "arm chair" labour supporter, but listening to Mr Corbyn, I am now a full labour member.. and am proud... He is the real deal before Brexit
Dear god. Get a grip. He destroyed the party.
Yes Ian Young, politicians of all persuasions would just love that; no interrogation, no 'Devil's Advocate' stance by the interviewer, no follow up, no pressing when a politician evades answering. "Bring it on" cry our political class, and don't think JC is (or will be) any different, as he showed on Channel 4 News. Boy, did he get indignant when faced with a straight (but dangerous) question. I certainly hope easy-ride, non-forensic interviewing doesn't catch on. (Brighton, UK)
I pray Labour wins this election.ps your a decent intelligent Labour leader kind man and I hope you win jc
Refreshing interviewing. So much more revealing and worthwhile if the interviewer is not trying to be a Paxman
GREAT GREAT interviewer. To the point, tough questions. I am not use to such journalism.
Fantastic interview! Particularly like the question of increasing growth in relation to environmental goals. I think most of Jeremy's policies are great, but a large proportion of them are still essentially aimed at increasing growth, which I think is fundamentally incompatible with achieving environmental goals. Especially once you take into account the displacement of carbon emissions overseas and the massive efficiency improvements that would be necessary to meet carbon targets at current global growth rates. As I say, I think his policies are great for the most part, but this is one of the key areas that will (in all likelihood) keep me voting Green for the foreseeable future.
'Things Are Not Going To Be The Same In 2020'
No Shiz JC!
16:34 This question is very important to me. There is an enormous number of unpaid workers who can’t sign on. Not only is this financially problematic for each of those people as well as the people they care for, but it also gives a dreadfully false impression of the “unemployment” rate. Most of us are working but many of us are basically slaves.
He isn't as against PR as I feared, but he's overthinking the solution. Multi-ward constituencies of say 6 to 7 seats each will give much more representative results for the Commons whilst maintaining (even improving) the constituency links, as most people who, as now, are not supporters of or genuinely representated by their local MP will have a neighbouring MP in the multi-seat ward who DOES represent their views who they can go to. No top up lists required or tiny extremist groups as a by-product. Simple! And thank god he mentioned the need for a full Constitutional Convention, absolutely right! Take a look at the Constitution UK project at LSE and the Electoral Reform Society to name but two.
my only negative on both interveiwer and JC is the continued use of this negative term "wealth redistribution" it implies that wealth is being taken from the rich and given away to the poor. What should be emphasized is a more equal sharing of the profits from work. It is not redistribution, but a fair wage system.
great interviewer
F
What could have been
Still here. 🌷
He knows everything.
also most people who are stopped and searched are young people, never see any OAPs getting stopped and searched
Say what you like about this man but his knowledge of the domestic political system is impressive. A far more insightful and well read guy than Osborne
The next fuckers who threatened "Capital Flight", i'd insist that they leave. Don't wait to "pass Go" just sod off and don't look back. They ALL take out more than they put in and if they could do better elsewhere that's where they'd be in an instant. These psychos have got away with murder so long and they can't hide their cockiness.
The "Truth " is , everyone in Britain is going to be working , harder , for longer for less and if you don't like it , there are millions trying to get in and take your place .
It's like a generation of people have, for the first time, been exposed to a politician who's primary interest is in doing a good job running the country. And that a job well done is the measured on the well being of the people and not how many "Rolexs the super rich can buy".
There was a study that showed racial disparities largely disappeared once you accounted for who was available to be stopped and searched on the streets. Stops and searches do not happen randomly but in places where crime occurs.
I like this interviewer.
Oh jeremyyyyyy corbynnnn
I hope that this guy wins the race for the Labour leadership. Not only will he upset the apple cart, he will create a political tsunami for the better.
Very refreshing time for politics.
He has his work cut out for him.
Go Corbyn!
A true labour man
I’ve been talking to politicians since I was 13 years old. I’ve noticed that politicians usually speak in 2 fashions, Media, and personal. Corbyn definitely blurs that line.
The case of Alexis Tsipras and Syriza are the main argument for right wing politicians, that anti-austerity policies don't work. The truth is that Syriza never had a chance to implement their policies, because during their short mandate, they were only fighting with international debt collectors, and of course they lost that battle, because they were fighting alone. Jeremy Corbyn and Labour party will have the same outcome if they fight alone against international finance oligarchy, and without cooperation with anti-austerity movements in other world countries. The problems caused by neoliberal economy are global and they can be solved only on global level.
"Its not 2012 that real change is going to happen, it will be 2015/16" David Icke 2011 interview.
PR House of Lords sounds good to me
The entire New Labour establishment is dead set against JC. becoming leader.
Which proves to me, he MUST be the right man for the job.
I agree with the establishment of a senate, having a non-elective upper chamber is outdated and undemocratic.
Also, give Ireland back to the Irish Jez x
You can't "deal" with the migrant crisis, it's only the beginning, unless you get your view on climate change from Piers Corbyn.
This is the man that will lead our country in 2020.
Hahahahahahaha.
Today on radio 4 they dug out Kinnock the windbag, to go on and on about how Corbyn will be so unpopular.
Mr Neil 'I'm popular' Kinock, telling us how unpopular Corbyn is, , , , FFS you couldn't make it up !
His brat is a traitorous twat. Neil Kinnock is still crying over his loss to the Thatch, when he missed an open goal
But Kinnock was right though, wasn't he? You were wrong. You were very, very wrong.
I would rather give my trust to him than to any other politician in this morally bankrupt system that we have today.
Do you ever think that you're really the odd one out? Few other people agreed with you
Can't wait for my card to arrive for me to gladly put in my vote for Jeremy Corbyn.
JamesistheThunder IDIOT
peppersdog1 says the person getting so enraged by someone's opinion
JamesistheThunder OPINIONS ARE LIKE ARSEHOLES....EVERYBODY HAS ONE....BUT YOU TALK OUT OF YOURS ...LIKE ALL LABOUR SUPPORTERS
peppersdog1 Gr8 b8 m8, I r8 8/8
JamesistheThunder i only speak english gay boy
I like how Jeremy Corbyn draws off his experiance when talking about differant subjects, it's evident he has sepnt a great deal of his life pouring over international treaty's, policys, up-coming policys etc etc and has a great vocabilary in politics in general. It fustrates me when I watch recorded feeds from parliment where they are discussing issues like poverty, housing etc as there is allways a very low turn-out and the majority of those MPs that do turn up spend the whole time looking bored on thier ipads/iphones all the time. I bet you wouldn't see Jeremy Colbyn doing that.
I think he's great. I hope he becomes P.M. and becomes P.M. early, because I'd like to come back to live in England, and the England that was, i.e. an England that holds fairness as a number 1 priority. It's so good to see that the world is at last trying to do something about the dreadful neo-liberal/ capitalist world. It's really important that we get back to democracy.
Unbelievable man
There's only one type of politician I'm interested in. Does he care about the UK being an independent sovereign state being run by its own citizens and free from EU control, or does he want to sign us up to a dwindling economic and monetary union for the next 50-100 years run by technocrats and officials not elected by UK citizens who are in pursuit of a federalised and homogenised Europe? If it is the latter, I am not in the slightest bit interested. If it is the former, then you got my vote.
+macaronimick The UK already is a independent sovereign state regardless of whether it's in the EU or not.
EU directives made by bureaucrats in Brussels and Strasbourg have not been given the mandate of the British people. They do not represent our will. We we never given the option of this Union in which 50-75% of our laws are mandated by EU directives. MEP's from other countries have a say on the laws implemented in our suposedly sovereign state. This is unacceptable. If you think this makes the UK independent then I suggest you think harder.
By what definition could Mhairi Black be described as left wing?
I remember seeing him talk in 2011 in trafalgar square, london, at a stop the war coalition thing. Was good. Theres a short video on the arms trade, done with sarcasm but also very true, give it a watch....its in my uploads, or just type in.......Arms dealers need your money
Isn't he just brilliant.
Joseph Loftus GET A LIFE
+peppersdog1 Isnt that what Corbyn is trying to get for people??
Perhaps by a few quid but at the moment mega corporations that are crushing small businesses are more than just better off. They are avoiding billions in tax which could be invested into public services. Look at the bigger picture mate. Just because you can't see them doing it doesn’t mean it's not happening.
+Joseph Loftus im not your mate
Time to bring back Dave Nellist. Corbyn Nellist dream ticket.
He talks about these "desperate" immigrants needing sanctuary in our country because of wars in their own countries. People get the governments and regimes they deserve. We established our system of democracy, freedom of speech and the rule of law over centuries of evolution based on freedom and justice and when we were faced with invasion in 1939 we didn't flee abroad for sanctuary. We stayed and fought back !
+Rouzbeh Modarresi I'm not "forgetting" that ! I'm saying that over a long period of time we used the cards we were dealt and made the best of it. We started off a small damp island off the coast of Europe with few natural resources but went on to conquer yes but also to liberate countless under developed countries around the world with boundless natural resources from their poverty and tyrany to our mutual benefit. Then we peacefully negotiated their independence. Contrast that with many African and middle eastern former colonies which have slipped back into sectarian violence, corruption and dictatorship. We've been condemned both for intervening and for not intervening to rescue them from their own self inflicted chaos and now we're expected to afford their casualties sanctuary here. You couldn't make it up !
+Rouzbeh Modarresi The other point is that we too have been colonized by imperial powers in the past from outside first by the Romans and then by the Normans. The difference is that we learned from that experience to reform our system of government (Google Magna carta etc.) and improved our defence system (Google NATO, Independent nuclear weapon, etc.). Although some of us emigrated abroad many of us stayed on ready to repel any new invaders and strove to promote free and peaceful trade with the rest of the world. I return to my original argument "People get the governments they deserve". We certainly don't deserve a Corbyn government !
+Rouzbeh Modarresi I don't pretend to be an expert on middle eastern politics or the history of anglo American interference but it seems to me that if you have an internal problem then it's primarily up to you to sort it out. We had a long history of corruption, incompetence and indeed tyrany ourselves inside our own country but through grass root opposition and education we gradually reformed the system in conformity with basic human rights and responsibilities. Of course even now things are not perfect but we're getting there. Each country has it's own history and culture and it seems to me that you either believe in democracy where everyone is judged equal or tyrany where one person or group of persons has all the power. So far as trade between states including oil and weapons is concerned I think governments can only be expected to negotiate with whom ever is in control always based on their own self interests. Thankfully organizations like the UN, free press and social networks have evolved to express independent public aprobrium when states act unlawfully. End of lecture.
hope ids is still around for his trial in 2020
