  • Krishnan Guru-Murthy is not a good interviewer. Far too aggressive. I wanted to listen to Corbyn speak, not Murthy constantly interrupt & trying to put words in his mouth. This is what I expect from Sky News. Sort your sh*t out Channel 4.
  • Jeremy Corbyn is talking sense. Krishnan would do well to listen and stop interrupting Jeremy.
  • Just watched this it's a shame what the country's media did this Guy they didn't care until he became a thret he would have changed the country for the better instead we have these idiots
  • @jodders619
    Corbyn's points about tax dodging and insecure 0hrs contracts really stand out during this pandemic.
  • @lewisgrace3596
    As a Green Party member, Corbyn really shows the last embers of Labour. A Corbyn-lead Labour might just sway me, otherwise Labour are doomed.
  • @outlawJosieFox
    Well Krishnan made himself look a right prat! Let the man speak! When he finally was allowed to reply fully, sounds like a good guy. Good guys always finish last they say, so I doubt anything will come of it, but how refreshing to hear a Labour representative espousing socialist policies. I hope that the party will give this guy a chance, I would absolutely vote for him.
  • Our shame as a Nation is that the majority of people say I’m alright Jack until they lose a job their home or lose a loved one or indeed get divorced. Life changing events that can destroy your standard of living. Everyone should be encouraged to work if they can and encouraged to contribute a fair amount towards running the Country. People from other countries are drawn to the UK because they think we have got the balance right but I feel we are on a slippery slope back into an unfair society. JC speaks the truth and people don’t want the truth.

    the Deep State sure did a job on poor Jeremy and we all suffered because of it
  • @IWLTTFYBA
    Corbyn was absolutely right, the interviewer like all interviewers constantly interrupt politicians, never allowing them to finish answering the questions. Corbyn found it irritating, I find it irritating and I'm sure most people find it irritating. Again he was right in stating that the questions were tabloid like, the interviewer was just looking for the sensational headlines at the end of the interview. "You heard it hear first folks, tune in next week for more of the same"........... YAWN!
  • @alexvanbeek4689
    Corbyn does a very good job of explaining some complicated issues in approachable terms that are accessible to everyone. Krishnan being unprofessional and resorting to bad manners to attempt to distill and dumb down a reasonable answer into a sound bite is just pathetic and does disservice to the decency and intelligence that Corbyn represents in British politics.
  • Reading the comments below tells me that people in England get the governments which they deserve..
  • @gavinsealey
    Despite Guru-Murthy's approach Jeremy got his points across and to my mind looked like the rational speaker. Guru-Murthy's aggressive, quick fire, questioning, though extremely irritating, were easy to bat away and did not challenge Jeremy's position in any depth.
  • Krishnan Guru-Murthy, I am so disappointed in your trivialising of the issues here. I think Jeremy Corbyn was correct in stating that you were creating tabloid journalism. I have long followed channel 4 news after giving up on other mainstream news output, seeing this interview leaves me in despair, I have lost a lot of respect for you as a journalist, Krishnan.
  • @jamsandwich2480
    Tarantino once shut down Krishnan for sensationally using tabloid questioning. I can see why now
  • @adamscottprice
    We could have had him as PM, but instead we've had Boris, Truss, Sunak! Absolutely gutting. That is a man that knows the facts and the issues and is passionate about actually fixing things and moving things forwards. So depressing to compare him to these current robots Sunak and Starmer :/
  • @Tason123
    This interview was honestly rude and aggressive although Corbyn remained completely professional I also agreed with everything he was saying
  • @JTURREL
    'You can't answer the question if it's a long answer'. Fantastic journalism there Krishnan.
  • This is like watching a three year old asking his dad questions. Too impatient to listen and lacking the mental capacity or maturity to understand the answers..
  • @johnnyhoops3991
    What a tragedy that Jeremy Corbyn did not become Prime Minister...
