I respect this man & there should be such men in parliament. Unfortunately the labour parties tend to have politics & media degrees or something similar.

Hillary Clinton terms workers as "deplorables", Sir Keir seems to use the term "yobs". Truly Starmer is very lucky that the general election was last month rather than this month, given current events and his recent statements that are perceived as a dislike of working class people.
At first I thought that this man is just a communist agitator who wants to disrupt the railways to the most etc., but then I started to actually listen to him and his arguments- and now I see him and the things and people he represents in a totally different light: he actually makes sense in many ways- like the argument that it should not be the norm in today's UK that if you're working person you have to choose between heating and eating in the UK winter, and that you have to rely on the breadline handouts while you're having a full time job. What this man is looking for is what ever working class person is also looking for: a decent level of living and a decent pay for your work, that's all. Now what could be wrong with that ?
Its just his integrity, his decency, his grasp of rights fought for over time and now under threat: very difficult for the right wing press to vilify when he clearly displays these values.
My mom on my 16th birthday gave me a book with the words "This won an election in 1945 ". I was too young and never read it until years later, sitting during a lunch break at work, it was a revelation considering that it was published in 1914 it was my experience at work. That was in the 60s and I'm now 74 and the book is even more relevant today. The title of the book is, 'The Ragged Troused Philanthropists ' by Robert Tressel a house painter.

Utterly profound, intelligent and incisive comment on the state of British society, politics and industrial relations. Thank you for something that is both edifying and uplifting. Why, oh why, is this man not in charge of our country? His integrity is evident in his every word. I live in the hope that one day, someone of his calibre might take the reins of public office and rid us of the vacuous, idealistic self-serving, short sighted fools that have wreaked havoc in our economy and society for far too long.
Because he's of better use outside of the political sphere. While I'm in complete sympathy of your sentiment, the voice he projects is only heard (sadly) through main stream media precisely because he's not in a position of direct party parliament power.

This Country is working class as in the main we all get paid for our time at work be it manual or cerebral. There are very few who live off aquired Wealth? The Class system is there to cause divison between the people in this Country. We need a reset desperately.

Very interesting fella. No nonsense and I couldn't disagree with anything he said. Downing St must hate him. His support of a united Ireland is also very welcome :)
What a refreshing interview. A professional journalist who doesn't come with his own agenda but to find out what the legend Mr Lynch thinks . As he responds with his vision with absolute clarity and honesty .
Every word well thought out and totally true, I have so much admiration for this man, a truth telling hero and a Leader in the real sense of the word, he is justified.
Undeniably an outstanding contributor to the debate about fairness and equality in our society. It's a pity there aren't more people who have captured public attention in the ways this gentle logical thinking man has shown can be so effective.
Grant Shapps is a grifter. Ask Corinne Stockheath! If only more politicians came forward with a background like this rather than people that have never had a real job then they might think more about ordinary people.
Politicians seem to think they are the subject matter expert on every topic on this planet, just because they have MP at the end of their name....they are without the underpinning knowledge and experience required ... and so are their advisors.
Brilliant exposé of core principles. In a society that has lost contact with political ideas, this leader is a voice crying in the wilderness. That's why they will do everything to silence him. ❤
The man is so down to earth and inspiring. His diagnosis of the problems of social democracy is spot on: itoo much deology instead of pragmatic reform. Less identity politics and more horizontal across the board bread and butter questions.

Middle class and working class are terms used to divide the main population. All are both and middle implies others are lower class and working classes implies not lower class because you retain credit due to the implied underlying nobility of work.

You saw what they did to Corbyn - there is absolutely no place for true Labour values in today’s Party. Those wanting social justice and perhaps an end to food banks and tax evasion are denounced as Communists as expelled from the party 😊
All we need is a Rail or Public Transport system like most countries in the whole world where it is cost effective and VERY reliable. Look at the UK and what have we got?
Railway electricians, well, all electricians really, do tend to but much more intelligent than your average Tory, by quite a distance. Much more rational and balanced.
Six English councils have gone bankrupt since 2021 including Nottingham city, Birmingham city and Woking councils etc. Westminster Tory austerity since 2010 continues.
Back in the '50s we had regular talks from the school Secretary (himself a union Branch Secretary) covering the importance of being involved in Trades Union organisation. The option in our case was to leave such matters to philosophically motivated political groups such as Communists. It was seen as a moral obligation to contribute to societal betterment.
Just wish he was a politician he would sort this country out top to bottom to a more equal and fairer society, we workers do not realise how much power we really can have
