- Ken Loach speaking at 'Uncensored! The Festival' on Saturday 29th July in Nailsea, near Bristol. The event was organised to counter the censorship shown by Glastonbury and Tolpuddle festivals.
A man of great intellect, great humanity, great principle. No wonder Starmer's Labour party despise him.
Ken Loach,a great man!
Well said guys
@@annenunney9907 Thank you.
Indeed
And great energy and fortitude
Any party that doesn't want Ken Loach then they clearly don't want my support either.
One reply but no reply there, UA-cam censorship is so obvious! And I agree with you!
Ken is a great man. 👍

Socialism doesn't work, get over it.
What a wonderful man. As someone on disability social security (I refuse to call them benefits) and universal cruelty, I fear for my future. Well said Ken 👏 👏👏👏
Ken a decent man being stigmatised but truthful people are not scared of cowards.
Well they are, but principle over-rides it. Being scared of the Right wing including the Red Tories is intelligent and normal.
True! Decent people are the ones that don't get heard til it's too late!
totally out of touch with the people and the science.......
I don't think anyone would try to stigmatise Ken surely? Any examples?
That hypocrit of the highest order, the arrogant ignorant Corbyn for sure, but not Ken.
@markhorton8578 corbyn
is as far away from hypocritical, arrogant and ignorant as one could possibly get!!! One of the most caring decent men along with Ken and that's why they are friends
Kick starmer out
A traitor to his country. Julian could be freed to leave a small room for him.
Here here red Tory !!
Well said sir 👏👏👏👏

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism.
Yes it is, the world can tolerate dozens of Muslim countries, but cannot tolerate a single Jewish state, and the reason is anti semitism. God bless Israel and the Zionist state
Yes it is Anti Semitism.Jewish people have been persecuted for thousands of years and Israel is our sanctuary.Or would rather we leave our fate in the hands people like you ?
For some it is a fine line!
Anti-ritual child circumcision is not anti-Semitism.
The modern 'back-door' version of the one-party-state - 'generic-politics', where it makes no difference who you vote for - the government always wins!
If it made a difference they wouldn't let us vote
@@garydixon4290 The 'Illuminati' and their partners in crime have put paid to any hope of any true democratic socialism ever emerging in the UK.
"Starmer is a shallow opportunist and we cannot be governed by him." Couldn't agree more, Ken!
And Jeremy Corbyn was a failure as Labour leader by losing multiple elections as well poor housekeeping within the party by not dealing with the anti semites (some filmed because openly anti semitic at social gatherings) but instead chose to ignore it, a sign of a poor leader. A strong leader would have ejected those identified and condemned them but he did nothing.
And you call Starmer poor. 🤔 Interesting.
Isn't that EVERY politician ?
@@chasleask8533I'm not going to force to you believe otherwise but if you dig deeper towards those who the establishment go out of their way to destroy you might just surprise yourself....also remember this country has strong imperial societal top down constructs such as Royalty so people like Tony Benn, Dennis Skinner, Corbyn, Nye Bevan are few and far between it's just they are generally kept out of the power structure.
Most of them. Corbyn isn’t.
heaven forbid that the left should use their energy attacking the Tories, and thank god that energy can instead by used in the cause of dissuading people from voting to unseat the Tories.
Ken Loach is a legend in film making Kes,The Wind That Shakes The Barley and Land & Freedom to name just three classics. He's also been committed to the betterment of society and those in the Labour Party trying to smear this cultural giant with anti - semitism are not fit to lick his boots.
I remember watching Cathy Come Home and crying.
I agree😊 😊
@@esmewitchit was very powerful and of course so true and the conservatives have strpped housing legislation of any teeth 😢

Love ken loach (a hero of mine) great to hear some truth for a change!
A great speech by a man who cares for the people. The antithesis of Starmer.

But Loachs self important dramas are much better than his

@@angeladibble No I just don't believe what just one person is saying as it is their opinion.
I like actual facts before I make a decision with a person's position.
Not just from believing the propaganda that many people like this spout to make themselves seem like a paragon of virtue.
If they had actual facts to back up their comments, then I would be more inclined to believe them..... but many do not.
Stop mass-importing poor foreigners and end benefits for lazy local. Lefties and Neo-Libs destroyed Britain.
Well said Ken
I'm now a Green Party Socialist...
I'm the son of a Labour Party worker from 45 to 76.
He was a Socialist and and will be spinning in his grave.
I joined the Greens with a view to support those fighting Schtarmer...
We will get our Party back.
We'll Keep The Red Flag FLYING HERE !!
The greens have been presenting more socialist policies than Labour at least since Milibland. I remember the greens leader sniping at Labour under Corbyn saying it's good to see Labour nicking their policies in 2017!
Greens ..really..look again
@@maureenhillier8948Ken mentions unity, coming together. You appear to be encouraging division. That only benefits the right wing.
The Labour Party was created to represent working class people. The British Labour Party will never deliver real socialism. There is no parliamentary road to socialism. The SWP knows the way forward. The working people in Britain and across the world should be building revolutionary socialist organisations. The world's capitalist system is slowly collapsing. Marx predicted that the world's capitalist economic system would eventually collapse because it is inherently flawed.
@@johnradford6026The Green Parties in this country are becoming sell outs, sadly. The whole idea was to encourage the view to looking after the planet better. Now, they are becoming Communist in their approach. Supporting draconian "green" ideas from unelected outside sources, such as the UN and the World Economic Forum. 15/20 minute cities and neighbourhoods. LEZ, ULEZ, LTNs and no doubt, Pay Per Mile.
How can you listen to this great man without agreeing 100% with what he says. IssytomSkye
Don't think I could have the strength of character of the likes of Ken & Jeremy. To have made & won these arguments back in the 70's and have to still be fighting for the same so many years later.

Trouble is, he's talking to the converted.
True
It’s good to have hope though.
True, the people that need to read the books he talks about are not in the audience and their only reading is the Daily Mail, Express, Telegraph...
Starmer a kitten of the Realm with an IDF uniform on said he would campaign against a united Ireland.
Stand with Palestine against racism and apartheid 🍉☘️🕊️ BDS
A vote for Starmer is a vote for a plutocracy. He is their man.
🤡 that is the Tories party not Labour
If Labour win the next election the party will never recover but then again it won't matter because what reminder of freedom we still have will be subjected to so called societal structures like the universal basic income which sounds good but the right don't give anything for nothing and they will take physical cash😢 then payment will be on condition of action, no more protest
Didn't they tell us not to listen to this man because he's anti-semitic? Seems like a pretty compassionate reasonable bloke to me. There's the thing, though. Listen to what people actually say and you risk making up your own mind.
I was pro exit of the EU until the media started really attacking him and I actually found myself repeating MSM narrative and then I thought do I know anything about him personally so luckily I started digging... well I don't need to tell you... I actually switched to remain allthough once I started digging I realised after watching the working class give up the best opertunity in nearly 40 years nothing much will change until the people of the UK focus on their own social, economic and political understanding.
I am now moving over to the greens having been a labour supporter for nearly 30yrs.
It’s time the left woke up and stopped playing the bs game between labour and the Torys as they are both the same and work for the same donors
Not us! I would love to see a massive shift to the Greens just to show labour that we are not playing their games anymore.
Agree 100%! And we mustn't be deterred by the centrist "you're all Tory enablers" brigade!
@@anncothromoir1018 well they didn’t mind Labour losing when Corbyn was the leader, in fact they made sure of it!! They’ve showed their true colours, it’s time we showed ours ✊
💚💚
Look into greens ..not good sorry
Voting is like polling, except in a poll I'd put up my hand for libertarian socialist, and in a vote, I put up my hand for authoritarian Thatcherite. WTF have I been doing?
@@maureenhillier8948 they are the only party that cares about climate change and as so need more recognition even though they will never compete against the two neoliberal parties that don’t give a toss!
So my vote is just a protest vote and it doesn’t matter other than that because the Greens cannot win either way but like I said previously I want my vote counted against labour and Torys and to show Green policies mean something to some of us! Otherwise labour and the Torys won’t do a dam thing unless they think they can win your votes, they don’t care a dam about you!!
What a fantastic filmmaker who makes films about people's lives that reflect modern society.
Blair is running Starmer (& Sunak)
Bless! What a compassionate and honest person. And he's been doing this for years! RESPECT to this wonderful human being.
The whole situation leave me speechless... that we should be in a position as a socially progressive movement fighting our own party to stand on points of long held principle.. and trying to steer away from what are policies that would be more of any previous conservative party... our only hope is that Labour are defeated or no overall majority at the next election.
So you'll vote tory then?
Thank you Ken, start a new party with Corbyn and others. Otherwise there is no hope for this UK and we will descend into a deeper totalitarian state.
Isn’t it time for Revolution please? I want to be here when it happens and l’m getting very ancient. So,please hurry up.
Ken Loach, what an awesome example of Socialism he is ... I agree 100% with every word he has spoken x
Yeah, socialism is terrific. I should know, growing up in one of them regimes. You lot are so deluded, it beggars belief.
A decent man with realistic opinions and ideas in the name of basic human rights, we all know what's coming yet we cannot do anything by the ballot box to stop it from happening, that to my mind is out and out fascism.
How we change all our fates in light of what is happening is completely beyond any reasonable person's mindset, other than despair while staying informed on what exactly is going on.
Well said 👏👏👏
As the captain in 'Galaxy Quest' said:" Never give up. Never surrender"
Nil Illegitimum Carborundum"
A salute from Down Under to Ken Loach! Best lines: "We must not fall into sectarianism... We must not fight each other... It's what Starmer is banking on".
Contempt for the Labour Junta (Starmer, Reeves and others) for their lies about Corbyn and Loach.
It's true you never hear a left voice on the BBC or C4 or the Guardian. On the other hand they never stop telling us about the "climate emergency". That's simply an observed fact and I'll leave you to consider the likely reasons why.
Because climate change will kill everyone? And they do stop us hearing about climate change. It's why the BBC didn't air Attenborough's episode of the recent nature series that focused primarily on the danger of climate change. It was too "negative" for prime time.
But I guess you don't believe anthropomorphic climate change is real despite the immense weight of scientific evidence. Well science says you're wrong if that's the case.
Thank goodness for Ken Loach! Caring, intelligent, principled, and giving hope that change is possible. Thank yyou.
There's a very concise vid on here explaining the Corbyn massacre, by Chris Hedges; Truth Defense channel. Well said as ever, Ken.
Thank you Ken no surrender 😊✊

Thanks so much for posting
200,000 people have left the Labour party, but I'd be interested to hear a solid figure for how many have been expelled, these last couple of years...
Not to mention how many have joined since Starmer was installed.
Many of those Starmer expelled were Jews. - the wrong sort of Jews you understand, ones who criticised the Israeli appartied policies
@@ianoliver3130Yeah. He's a good leader is Starmer (sarcasm). He has made it plain that he intends to be leaning his loyalty more towards the World Economic Forum, than his own country. That NGO is never held accountable for anything.
Thanks for these words of wisdom Ken and thanks to Crispin for getting the show together.
Can you please tell us why the road shows don't attract the crowds that used to turn out for Jeremy Corbyn?
Is it simply that crowds are not allowed on the venue sites? If so, where can we get those crowds back, because we need to see them on our social media. #TransformPolitics 🚩
Thank you for this amazing video
Fantastic, I agree with every word. I was a labour follower, but not now. I moved to The Green 💚 party. I studied conservation and ecology over twenty five years ago and lectures we're talking about climate change then... What is needed is a strategy, a functional, practical teamwork in place, which tackles climate problems.
Yes unfortunately once the neolibrals are no longer able to hide behind their lies about climate they will resort to direct fascism and one of my biggest fears is organisations like XR being used as a excuse for malthusianism
They said London would be underwater by 2020, er, no.

If labour or any politicians can be trusted then why did they ALL leave the chamber when that MP tried to call a debate about dangers of cavid vacins etc. Shame on all of them for not debating a thing that may have been a risk to many in the uk
It is shocking what they do. No secure home base for children growing up. No regulation of agencies.

Ditch Labour and go Green, it's time to stop the rot.
The greens didn't say much about the blowing up of nord stream pipeline by us did they
If you want alternative and more "progressive" excuses for austerity then go ahead and vote for the Tories in sandals.
The problem with greens is the problem with Libdems in 2010. Once they hold the balance of power and share with the Tories (or Labour) they'll give up on their most meaningful policies for a few soggy carrots in return. Ultimately they're not focused on issues that impact poor people the most, rather wealthy liberals.
@@uniteddreamer Ok then I will look into a more desirable use of my vote, but I will not go right wing and Labour have slid alarmingly in that direction. Have you any suggestions ?
@@camoTiara I hear you. If I was in Scotland I'd say vote SNP. Here I would vote anyone but Tory in an actively contested seat, or green as a protest seat in a safe constituency. As I did against Milibland. But the purge against progressive MPs in the labour party is a real concern. I'm in full agreement with you. Good luck 👍

I'm with ken. Voting Reform Party at the next election.
I'm a Community Volunteer on Merseyside, and live on the council estate where I mostly work and engage with the public. Our estate has a majority unemployed/out of work population, which we estimate at over 70%. Our "food bank", as it is frequently and erroneously referred to, is little used - we end up throwing over half of our donations away, week in, week out, whereas the local vape shop, takeaway, and tattoo parlour, do a roaring trade. The busiest, most lucrative businesspeople on the estate are cannabis and cocaine dealers, and the number of French Bulldogs on the estate has reached herd numbers; nobody goes hungry, everybody's kids have electric scooters and good bikes, and, in my street alone, there are a good half dozen couples who get their weekly food delivery from Ocado or Sainsburys.
The biggest "big lie" of all is that politicians from opposing parties differ from one another: the second biggest, is extremely wealthy ageing white men pretending to be socialists (although the trick worked a treat in Venezuela).
Don't fall for this "hawks vs doves" bs. Its empty propaganda.
The film raises important concerns, but because its been knobbled as far as mainstream distribution goes, it's just preaching to the converted. Just as this rally is.
Forgive me Ken.
I've a number of friends and colleagues who are on state benefits and or use food banks that are absolutely able to work or can afford food.
The abuse of handouts by those known to me is sadly incredulous.

I thought when he started his speech he was going to talk of the denial of free speech. It is the left-wing who have restricted free-speech most since the 1960s. I remember in the early 70s some members of the nationalist National Front were invited to speak at the university where I was an undergraduate. I wasn't interested in hearing them. I steered clear of politics then. However, I was appalled the Student Union prevented them speaking. Speech wasn't that free before that - there were religious morality laws and blasphemy laws, but banning political groups from speaking was the start of the erosion of free speech. Then the various race relations legislation in the 1960s introduced by the Labour Party restricted British people from speaking against the migration of particular races. Since then it has been one restriction after another. We now have no real free speech.
"It was Thomas Edison who brought us electricity, not the Sierra Club. It was the Wright brothers who got us off the ground, not the Federal Aviation Administration.

If you think that foodbanks are supporting 11million people in this country, you need to seek help. There is no way foodbanks are giving away 1/7th of all the food in this country. That would be about £30bn of food given away as charitable donations. That would be a give-away 1000x bigger than either Comic Relief or Children in Need. It would make foodbanks one of the biggest food outlets in the country. It's amazing what nonsense people will have you believe.
