Jeremy Corbyn: 'Let us recognise another world is possible'
Corbyn’s here! He says Michael Eavis brought the “spirit of love” to Glastonbury – and makes a dig at Donald Trump, highlighting a poster that says Build Bridges, Not Walls. “The elites got it wrong!” he says of the election result. “Politics is about the lives of all of us, and the wonderful campaign that I was involved in... brought a lot of people back into politics because they believed there was something on offer for them. But what was even more inspiring was the number of young people who got involved for the very first time... they are fed up with being denigrated... and being told that their generation was going to pay more to get less.” “We’re demanding something very different in our society and our lives. Is it right that so many people in our country have no home to live in and only a street to sleep on? ... Is it right that so many people live in povery in a society surrounded by such riches?” He touches on Grenfell tragedy, and argues that EU citizens should be “part of our world”
He makes a call to support for refugees: “Peace is possible and must be achieved. Let’s stop the denigration of refugees... they are all human beings just like all of us here today.”
He calls for “human rights, justice, peace and democracy all over the planet,” and remembers coming to Glastonbury as a child. “In every child there is a poem, a painting, music,” he says. “I want all our children to be inspired, to have the write to write music, and poetry and paint in the way they want. This festival gives that chance and opportunity... I’m proud to be here for that.”
He makes nods to the peace movement, and to environmental campaigning at Glastonbury. “There is only one planet - not even Donald Trump believes there’s another planet somewhere else.” He calls for the use technology to help preserve the planet.
“Racism is wrong, evil and divisive in our society,” he says – generating perhaps the biggest cheer yet. He also calls for challenges to sexism and homophobia.
He makes a final appeal to equality, and an end to the division in wealth and poverty. “We’re doing things differently, we’re doing things better!” He says he finds the “unlocking of potential” is inspirational.
He quotes Percy Bysshe Shelley :
Rise like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you –
Ye are many - they are few.
“Let us be together and recognise another world is possible, if we come together to... achieve a decent, better society where everybody matters.”
Barnstorming stuff from the Labour leader, full of the clear-throated, big-hearted idealism that has set him apart from the rest of the political system. But we didn’t get a truly epic “Oh, Jeremy Corbyn!”
