Except that Corbyn was elected by the British pubic of course and was more popular than the rest. Labour chose Ed Milliband as their best bet and that was of course a failure to anybody with a working brain right from the off. Labour lost the last election and all of Scotland for being Tory-lite. For the sake of the future of the party they needed to elect someone who actually opposes Tory and if you listend to what Corbyn is saying it isn't far left at all, it's just that they media is so far right that anybody looks like an extreme commie to them.

How people are still harping on about him not singing the national anthem is beyond me. "God Save the Queen".. The man is a republican and does not support the idea of having a monarchy. Secondly, I'm pretty certain that it wasn't the royal family who suffered the immense casualties of the world wars. You can respect the people who died without having to support an establishment that didn't actually suffer any first hand consequences of the war. Anyone who states otherwise is simply being blindly patriotic and are just looking for something to nitpick due to not agreeing with some of Corbyn's views. The men and women who died in the world wars fought for many things including our freedom of speech/expression, and I don't think that includes blindly supporting someone who inherited power and singing a national anthem which relegates us to being 'subjects' of said monarch as opposed to being free citizens.

Andrew Cooke So what you've been told is right by people pushing an agenda of power today is somehow less absurd than what the whole world operated on 150 years ago. It's all a matter of perspective. Under a monarchy the UK became the most powerful nation in the world, as the monarch lost power, so did the nation. Germany was more powerful under Hitler than at any other time in history. Under Napoleon France also reached its height. Japan reached its peak under a monarch. Democracy is an inefficient system where people with no knowledge of anything can make important decisions they're in no position to make. Would you let someone with a degree in media studies control the economy? No you wouldn't. So why do you think that people with less knowledge than even that vote on things that they know nothing of. It's nonsensical and has never throughout the history of the world shown its merits.

+Arnox45 If by 'reached its peak' or 'became the most powerful nation in the world' you mean being at the whims of bloodthirsty, greedy dictators and conquering countries we have no right to, then sure, I agree with you. Without democracy, we'd be nowhere near as advanced as we are today and we'd be held back by the values of individuals in a much higher position of power than us. You may be complacent enough to enjoy being the said 'subject', but believe it or not, some of us don't particularly feel loyal to an outdated establishment which hasn't particularly done anything for us. Technology and social media have evolved to a point where the vast majority have a voice - this is how it should be in a democratic society and if you want to see a fine example of places where democracy does not exist, you can take a look at North Korea. I myself am completely indifferent to the Royal Family - I could not care less if they were in power or not as nowadays it's just a performance (tourists love it, at least, and it brings in a fair amount of income). If the monarchy tried to seize more power and actually start making decisions independent of politicians, people would be out in the streets rioting. They are a cultural icon if anything.

wow an actual conversation between a politician and a journalist rather than the usual back and forth attack/avoid that usually occurs. well done Channel 4 and John for starting to understand that people just want unbiased truth and well done to Jeremy for making the first steps in making politics work for the people again.

You may be interested to know that while it was a Labour government who enacted the policy, the original concept came from the "High Tories". "Nationalisation (socialism)" - Not the same thing. To use the British railways as an example, they were nationalised largely because the private rail companies refused to foot the bill to repair the damage caused to their networks by requisitioned usage during both world wars (during which time the railways were active day and night with scant time for heavy maintenance). At the time, taking the railways national was logical - the government was responsible for the state they were in, so it made sense that they should take responsibility for getting them working again. In any case, Corbyn has said that the way nationalisation was done in the past (i.e. "top-down") didn't work in the way it was hoped, and that the approach he intends to follow would be much more inclusive.

Regardless of your political views you cannot deny this guy is one of the most humble, decent and honest distinguished politician in modern day Britain. You can clearly see he has a genuine drive to make this country a better place to live in for everyone whereas power and wealth is of very little interest to him.

Couldn’t agree more. Does Jeremy Corbyn love his country? Not particularly - it’s part of The West and Corbyn has made it his life’s work to discredit all of its defining institutions, from NATO to the European Union. The time he bent over backwards to exculpate Putin over the Salisbury poisoning (contrary to accurate British intelligence) was embarrassing. He defended the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014 by claiming the West had provoked the Kremlin. Next to Johnson he is one of the most dishonest politicians you will see in your lifetime. He is divisive, prejudiced, sectarian, subjective, partisan, naive and economical with the truth. I’m glad he was thrown out of the Labour Party - he doesn’t belong in a mainstream Social Democratic Party, or even in decent society.

Point of order over the 'National Anthem': it was a song taken from the Jacobites ( 'Send him Victorious... Born to reign over us') by a family ( the Hanoverians) that had over twenty more elegible families to the post. It doesn't mention the nation other than the Third verse which consists of threats of violence against the Scots. As an anthem for a country it does a pretty shoddy job: it's not about loyalty to a country or a nation but to the bloodline that became the Sax-Coberg-Gotha-Windsors. Hardly a uniting song, or one to sing to show loyalty to a nation.

he loves the Britain of old but he doesn't like the corruption, the obsession with money, the meaningless wars and I think he thinks that this country can be 'good' again but that can only come from making strong decisions for the good that make you look deep down inside yourself and feel that think that we've still kept our integrity and dignity and are fighting oppression rather than being a puppet of isreal and fighting wars for geopolitical power.

Free everything everybody! Yay!

I regards to Trident, the most reasonable thing to do is have a free vote and respect the outcome. Most of the PLP would still vote to renew it, but it's the only way to keep the party unified, as I doubt he'll convince them otherwise. It may piss a few of his supporters off, but after all Corbyn is democratic leader of the Labour Party, not dictator.

Not a Corbyn supporter but as a republican it would be two-faced of him to sing the anthem. Personally I would like to see the anthem not be a homage to the monarchy, but to the state as a whole.

I really hope that this means the start of a different type of politics. Whether you agree with everything Corbyn believes in or not, I hope you, and people, welcome a new direction for democracy and representation: sincerity, honesty and real representation and democracy.

where does he stand on the "redistribution" of wealth? income from investments, inheritance taxes / sale of property etc etc ? previous hard core socialist Labor governments felt they had the mandate to loot money at an exorbitant rate (that topped out at 90% in the 1970's) from private individuals in order to fund their programs .. will middle class voters embrace this same policy on their families property and wealth ?

i think corbyn should be MP for BNP

Good to finally see a human being in the Labour Party but still voting UKIP.

This guy is my hero, the reason I now believe in the Labour party again not the NEW LABOUR Blair crap but the REAL LABOUR PARTY we had for all those years. I think we need a good clear out of some scum bags first though.

I wonder what it would be like if an actual 'grown up' was PM.

Who could love a piece of land which has been reduced to no more than an economic region to which anyone can migrate?

He doesn't need to convince me lol, I voted Green and I'm already sure I'll be voting Labour next time bar any massive fuck up in the next 4 years

+m80pls I just wish the best of Green and Labour could join forces. I don't think this is bad for the Greens. Corbyn can now change the conversation, and that conversation is not a million miles away from the Green's conversation.

In general protest groups don't win General elections you need a broader base up and down the country side and in the majority of the big political cities.

- What would you do as LP leader? - get the party to vote on things i'm a democrat, not a authoritarian leader. - What will you do if they don't agree with your positions? - Nothing. i will stay on. i was elected by the People i'm their leader - What should we do to end the Syrian crisis? - get more refugees. - What was the 1940 generation's greatest achievement? - giving us welfare. - 'Me Mum and Dad' contributed in the war effort, now they are dead but i don't know them enough to tell if they would have liked me to sing the National Anthem at the Battle of Britain memorial. - Do you love our country? - Of course i do, because i love NHS. (the old channel 4 interviewer in the funny tie has a prostatic orgasm by now)

Jon, do stop cutting him off.

A few years ago my local hospital was under threat of closure for the A&E department. 5,000 people marched in protest - the one MP on show with us was Corybn. And yet he doesn;t care about this country because he doesn;t sing a retarded national anthem. I'm a patriotic Englishman and I don;t sing that anthem either because it holds no relevance to my country.

hero. back in the game.

Roll on the next election

+singIeservingfriend I know we could have decent Tory majority, and really sort out the over spending, I hope that there is some way that Cameron can get out of this fixed term nonsense ,by 2020 this clown might be gone or have died ( his like 110) and the opportunity lost

Good on you Jeremy! Well keep marching with you. A real man! Viva the socialist Labour Party!

We hate him he’s a communist. 150 million dead, they can’t be wrong.

The sad thing about Corbyn is that had he note betrayed the Brexit vote theres a chance he'd be prime minister right now. He just gave the tories a huge majority by failing to see how many remain voters respected the result of the vote.

It's 2017 people. Time for progression and change. Jeremy will give you that

I really wish JC was leader before the Scottish referendum. At least he would have been forced to make clear his views on it and not just its for people of Scotland to decide line.I don't understand how you can support Ireland but on the other hand not apply some of the same argument to Scotland.

I voted green last election. Next election Corbyn will get my vote - as long as he stays on the same path. He is a political breath of fresh air. Also - he doesn't have to sign the national anthem, just ensure he's a good politician - which he appears to be.

jon snow manages to ask the stupidest questions lol

Jeremy Corbyn - the greatest Prime Minister we will never have.

so much love for this interview. snow banging out real questions without the usual journo patronising bollocks and corbyn giving back proper answers - much respect to channel 4

All public figures who don't state publicly that they love their country are dead ducks in the water.

He is a legend!

Corbyn is the antithesis of David Cameron.

apparently a lot smarter than I believed him to be, intrigued.

+nick shilton Not surprising you thought little of him, given that every newspaper and channel are singing from the same propaganda hymn sheet. Did you not find it suspicious that media conglomerates owned by billionaires all agree that he's a terrorist sympathising communist who hates Britain and wants to invite over a trillion rapist immigrants to live off free money forever? For fuck sake, people are so blind it upsets me.

wow, how patronizing was that finish? "It's a wheely wheely big job you have to do. are you sure your up to it?" - being a decent person does not make you stupid. You know nothing Jon Snow!

Jeremy Corbyn in a less sunny mood might have answered the question "do you love your country?" by saying: I love my country too much to sell off the railways and the ports to consortia of foreign investors I love my country too much to allow the privatisation by stealth of the NHS,the prison service, the education service and social care i love my country too much to allow it fall into disrepute by following the out of control Americans down every rabbit hole and war their crazed leaders demand i love my country too much to have Glasgow, Britain's second city, be a target in the event the Americsns( see above) decide to start a nuclear war... So why not go ask Cameron if HE loves his country..and see where HE stands on all the above.

Alice, you need to read and think a little more widely. Of course white people "flooded" Africa; white people divided up the whole continent, nearly, at the Berlin Conference in the 1880s. for white colonisation. Rhodesia? Ring any bells? Of Algeria for all that. Not to mention South Africa. And if you had watched the rugby world cup New Zealand v Namibia match...an African country vs a pacific country you would have been hard pressed to find a brown face on either side.It was " white" people who colonised Australia too so its hard to find an aboriginal australian fhese day and "white people" carried out the only totally successful genocide in world history in Tasmania. A unique race of people now totally wiped off the face of the earth by the 1920s. United States? all those white faces but where are the Huron? The Cree? The Mohicans? etc etc. You are confused. Maybe rethink your ideas?

I can't believe how silly people can be about a flag or anthem. I come from a culture full of these nonsense gesture things and when I was younger I cared so much more about gestures. Now I care about people. A country isn't a football team.
