I live in Greece. I hated the way Yiannis was abused by the Greek Govt. I am so glad he is backing Jeremy Corbyn. He should be involved in British politics now as I'm sure he won't forget his roots. He needs to help UK as later UK will help Greece.

I love Yanis's playfulness and quick mind. But this is my first time to hear Corbyn at length and I am thrilled to hear how his arrow is focused on the good for the people. Definitely Corbyn and other such leaders like Bernie could coordinate this level of critical thinking and awareness to help connect us internationally.

Corby get my vote, 100%. This is a matter of saving the world from greedy despots. I just wish others would get it. But unfortunately many are watching TV and getting faulty information.

As we’ve discovered now 4 years later, the Tory leadership has been utterly disastrous for the U.K. economy and especially for U.K. citizens and the impoverished working class. These gentlemen were right all along!

Its important to listen to people with this degree of passion and authenticity not being a puppet; clarifying and pushing people to be active participative and to aim to understand and change what is wrong.Thank you so much for your dedication.

Irene C: Corbyn is far from being the only politician that has interacted with former terrorist, political leaders from Thatcher to Bush have done exactly the same. Just because a politician meets and speaks with terrorists or former terrorists does not make them a terrorist sympathiser, and if politicians fail to open up lines of communication with such people, peaceful treaties like the Good Friday Agreement would never be reached. In fact such diplomacy is the essence of practical politics. Moreover, given your flawed perspective Britain's entire political system and all its MPs can be considered sympathetic towards terrorists, given that people linked to terrorism such as Martin McGuiness and Gerry Adams were able to become Members of the British Parliament. I can only surmise that your flawed perspective is the product of one or two potentials, either you have a professional political bias and your smearing of Corbyn is therefore by design, or that you form your opinions upon the basis of what your inculcate from the rabidly right wing mainstream media and that your judgement is due to a lack of political insight.

Certaintly the present president of the USA is less than nutral when it comes to certain international affairs,, of course when we look at his big funders it tells a story that explains what may be causing his very weighted support of Palistinian oppression which everyone in the world is aware of. I suppose if he was not in support of the ethnic clensing of Palistine he might likely be accused of Anti-Semitisim, it seem's one cannot speak the truth today about what is going on in Palistine or that is the instant accusation.

I never voted for Labour under Blair/Brown. They'd lost my progressive heart before 2001. Unhappy with my options I ended up Lib Dem locally, and after having moved to take up employment found myself squarely in Tory territory (with UKIP in 2nd place). In the Miliband Election. I felt so dissatisfied I spun a coin in the booth. It came down tails and accordingly, I spoiled my ballot and scrawled "none of the above". Apparently I was part of a movement as that election saw the labour vote collapse and the resulting leadership election ushered in Coybyn. And for the first time, in what feels like forever, I feel like there is a chance my politics is being represented. What an odd prospect hope is. Accordingly, I voted Labour in May's hasty catastrophe that resulted in the parlimentary arithmetric that has dogged her ever since. I voted to remain in the EU despite harbouring several concerns about it's undemocratic beauocratic nature (vis a vis Greece etc) and have basically been horrified every day since as the Brexit disaster unfolded entirely predictably. I refuse to join a political party I am far too cynical to trust even Corbyn's brand. But I watch and am broadly pleased with what I see, minus the whole Brexit thing - puzzled by the attacks, and generally approving of the socialist politics under discussion My hope is that Labour's ultimate destination is to support a remain second vote on the terms offered which are sure to be miserable. (Meanwhile plans are underway to apply for Irish Citizenship - because I can - and remain an EU Citizen.) I plan to vote Labour again the first chance I get.

@tony tiochta oh I don't blame the EU. Pretty much every country has benefitted from opening trade compared to where we would have been without the EU. It feels like greece is getting shafted or spain etc, but in reality we've still advanced more than if we stayed closed.

Tim Woodger, would you like to become a world voting citizen with Global People Power. We are using Democracy Earth’s blockchained app Sovereign to create global policies for peace, justice, equality, sustainability and prosperity. We are organising demonstrations for their global cooperative implementation and only voting for politicians who become active members of our movement.

Brilliant!

I voted for Corbyn to lead Labour but fell out with him over Brexit. However, I am back in his camp after watching this as Varoufakis is profoundly astute about the economics of Europe and the pan european argument. The sophisticated answer is the rational direction.

seeing corbyn mention the 'criticisms' of the EU (21st minute) without mentioning the thousands of deaths in the Mediterranean that are directly a result of the EU's policies highlights the whole hypocrisy of the endeavour.

The fact that some EU countries refused to take their 'fair share' has nothing to do with policies that all EU countries voted for that resulted in crossing the Mediterranean being so deadly. What you are referring to relates to after the act of surviving the crossing, whereas the comment you responded to referred to how difficult the EU has made the very act of crossing.

I've always voted with my heart AND brain engaged. So thus far, I've always voted GREEN. Mostly because, as a socialist, a very RED socialist, no UK mainstream party was worthy of my vote. Let us face it, no party of the past four decades has remotely resembled a true socialist party and obviously, as the environment is my prime focus, voting Green was a no-brainer. I've never had any truck with tactical voting, I tend to be strategic in my world view. However, we DO have to put capitalism to bed... FOREVER. We cannot allow the continuation of the rise of right-wing politics to shape our futures, such as they are. We cannot close our doors to those migrants in need, we cannot continue to march to the tune of infinite growth, on a planet with finite resources. We now have a duty to keep Farage, Johnson et al, out of Downing Street. We need a real paradigm shift. If Jeremy Corbyn's form of Labour Party is on that course, then finally, I'm in. In the US, a BLUE wave is rising. Let us here in the UK raise a RED wave.

CORBYN has always been my man, this discussion reinforces my thoughts and investment in Labour. We desperately need to spread this Political Philosophy around the world!!!

Corbyn sounds great and talks good. But do watch out for the 'power speech', that's out of character and sounds a bit silly. The media corporations seem to know that, for that is all that (at least I) see. I don't know whether the angrish speech (like: "We will win this!!") is real power speech, or made up - and that's the problem. Stay chill, and it'll be fine :-)

I agree, Both his greatest strength and greatest weakness. He is a great authentic talker, but as soon as he goes into "media mode" he seems less authentic. But having said that, he is a much better "power speech" person than May. She has a frog in her throat and sounds like she's gonna burst into tears when she tries to be stern and authoritative.

Great talk.

Two of the saner voices on the radical left. Good talk. What hurts the electability of Labour is perhaps the problems of radical ethno-religious diversity, things that fly in the face of natural human tribal instinct, the natural tendency to self-segregate, cultural disrespect towards the English in particular in their own homeland, all which feed the far-right like crazy. It's fine to have humanist ideals as long as they respect underlying human nature. But this is a process of discovery, let's just get on with it and do our best.

"...to revive Socialism...". Why is it in need of being revived? Not 'why revive it' but how has it gotten into such a parlous state as to require such help?

Can we get Yanis a British Passport, get Corbyn to PM, Yanis Deputy PM and let them fix this shit?

Corbyn, Please hire Yanis for potential government!

This could have been a brilliant discussion, but instead we have two people, one a politician and another an economist who may also be happy with the label of a technocrat who has the right solution to our problems, two people with different priorities and agendas forced into the format of an interview when one of them would clearly have liked this to be a dialogue and an opportunity to start a public discussion about an international political alliance. Yanis is a terribly bad moderator/interviewer and although it is clear that he wants to discuss about the possibility of an international political alliance he struggles to get Corbyn into a proper discussion about this. At some point it feels as if they were both using this interview/discussion as an opportunity to give their separate speeches to their audiences... The discussion between Yanis and Noam Chomsky was so much better.

I kind of agree but I think Corbyn is just too much of a politician to get an interesting discussion out of him. When you are part of the political system in UK as long as Corbyn has, it squeezes out every bit of authenticity even from the best of us. Varoufakis wants a deep discussion but he isn't getting it here.

never had any time for corbyn but having said that i'm so disappointed in the cross party blame shifting. how refreshing to finally hear that somebody's taking seriously the combination of needs: hosing, health, education(relevant for the 21st century needs) and a meaningful community with joint aims!!
