The fact they are looking for dirt on Gary shows they aren't able to criticise him solely on his opinion and his messaging, which tells you the kind of people or institutions that are willing to do that should be dismissed out of hand and deserve every ounce of contempt thrown their way.
This is definitely going to be an issue the bigger this channel gets. Clearly voices of powerful interest will want to silence your voice. Corbyn is an authentic leader and his voice/ movement aimed to deal with wealth inequality. He has been very effectively silenced and marginalised. Maybe use any negatively publicity directed at you as future content for the channel. Hope you are having a restfull and restorative holiday!
I’ve always listened to the likes of Bernie Sanders and Robert Reich and Jeremy Corbyn. As the great Jesse Venture says “We need a maximum wage. If you can’t live on $1 million dollars a month there is something wrong with you.”
@vroom Adding transparency to negative publicity might be helpful and a learning opportunity. For instance: this publication/ person is saying this and they are attached to this organizations. Might be a good way to expose misinformation and cohersive narratives about wealth inequality.
Gary- I just heard you here in the United States on BBC Outlook. This is totally what is happening here too, only we have the scary aspect of no guaranteed healthcare (no NHS) and college tuition is through the roof. I especially love your focus on mental health and what this is doing to people. I am a registered architect and my husband teaches at a college and its hard even for us to support ourselves and our son. I lived in the UK in 2001 (shout out to Billericay Essex) and the English people I met were all so kind and hardworking. I pray this turns around. In the meantime I have been forwarding your channel/message to everyone that will listen. Please come do lectures at Universities here! Folks will rise up! (but first get some rest). Thank you again. You are a brave messenger.
Was at a party last night met a 1st year student in Manchester studing economics so rushed back to home and gave her your book so we all adding to the conversation in a micro way but we need to address like your channel enter mainstream media
The fact people from FT are trying to get dirt on you, shows how threatened they feel by you, at overturning the status quo of the rich getting richer. Shows you’re doing a good job Gary. Enjoy the holiday, you’ve worked hard and need it 🏖️
@@mangohwy Journos and Academia are the intellectual court of the Managerial State. Democracy is just soft communism - part of the Iron Law of Oligarchy, especially since the Managerial Revolution in the early 20th century.
He just allowed to share what he's been told by the bigger guys. It's similar to any top shelf traders as J Belfort & others who scammed millions and they want get out. Ended up doing classes for the same people who been scammed. And continue earning money by clicks & views. Crazy but true..........
@@Rockall57 haha Exactly, he really has his finger on the pulse of society as they say. And now we have a misguided labour government looking in the wrong direction to fix it.
As long as there are those who seek to profit from the misery of others there will be harsh criticism of what you do, Gary. I know that ignoring them is not an option but the number of people supporting and spreading your message is growing. Enjoy your vacation; you deserve it.
We need a political party. There’s 2 choices at the next GE Farage or Starmer. & in the next 5 years Starmer will make sure it’s not him I feel. Already a ton of left wing people didn’t vote in disgust.
@tituscrow4951 It depends. I think he's got his heart in the right place and does want to challenge inequality but it's whether he's radical enough to make the changes he needs.
@@HueyByrne-ij3ku yeah. We have immense disasters happening in the country. It’s almost like what Clement Attlee had to deal with after ww2. Tinkering & worrying about debt levels won’t do it.
@@tituscrow4951yeah reform are setting themselves up to be the further right successors to the conservatives, we need a further left successor to Labour. A socialist party, if you will.
You've done a great job, try to switch off, recharge, and enjoy your well deserved time in Japan. Looking forward to your return and this next phase of the channel. Take it easy!
I'm ready to help the fight against Inequality. This is an issue which everyone in society faces. People in my generation (Gen Z) don't yet realise that if we remain on our current economic trajectory, that we will never: own a home, have financial stability or be able to have children of our own in this rapidly destabilising world. My future depends on solving inequality. I'm no Socialist or communist but we need a brief societal reset which sensibly distrubutes the wealth and assets MORE equally across society. It won't solve all of societies woes but it'll cause massive positive societal change
Are you a supporter of mass immigration and the continued importation of labour??? If so, you're nothing more than a schill for the very thing you claim to be fighting against.
Your posts are absolute gold and we need THE WHOLE WORLD to hear your messages. I post you wherever I can and I hope everyone else seeing your vids is posting you EVERYWHERE! 💜
I think I joined when you had 4000 followers. I could see what was happening and you became the voice to spread the message. Thanks Gary, keep up the good work.
Did say in a previous video that certain ‘parties’ would appear to try and derail Gary’s message. Not surprised in the slightest that there’s been a hit piece. PROTECT THIS MAN.
I've been campaigning for the climate for six years. I think your economic scenario is even worse and more urgent. All in all the future is looking very bleak indeed. I'm 73 so may be well out of it before it hits people like me. (Enough, not rich, own house, want renewable energy for every one... Etc). I have 4 grandchildren aged between 7 and 1. What's life going to be for them? I'll never know, just as my parents are not seeing this. I haven't got the fitness or resources for cycling in Japan, but I'm just as excited for my around the England Coast by bus pass project! Maybe October will bring some new hope. I'm a big fan Gary, and telling all my friends and family about you. ❤❤❤
I spread your message n various social media channels as I’m sure others do too. As I work in marketing, I know this works. Most of this activity won’t be visible to you, but please be assured that the smallest pebble can cause ripples which turn into waves. I’ve advised my MP Ruth Cadbury that I voted Green because they adopted your policies to help make her sit up and listen. You’re on the cusp of making real and significant change.
Stumbled on your interview (different channel) & then found the LBC interview...now I'm here. I won't lie: It's REALLY difficult hearing the things you say - especially about the decline of the world as we know it. But what keeps me hopeful is that fact that there's a caveat: This will continue to happen IF WE DO NOTHING TO CHANGE IT. So happy that someone *who understands the game* is out here trying to educate the ordinary person about their TRUE place in making change. I'm officially a new subscriber & hopefully you can come down to South Africa (which is where I'm from) and give a talk - especially to the banking & wealthy crowd who often have violent allergies to the idea of taxing the wealthy as a mechanism for closing the inequality gap. This is a particularly important conversation, given that I live in THE most unequal country in the world.
Gary Stevenson did for Economics what Galileo did for our understanding of Gravity. He looked at the text books and said "They are wrong!". Galileo was (and still is) correct and so is Gary!
@@margaretgaskin4928 Newton was wrong about Gravity being a force and orbits are all part of the 3D illusion so Galileo is the Daddy of Gravity not Newton!
Richard Murphy has covered all this, and more, for the past 4 years or so. Gary R is just a younger person speaking to a younger audience. The good new is that the message from the two is broadly the same.
Guys chill. All of science is built on what came before, Galileo was more accurate than those before as was Newton, as was Gauss, as was Einstein and Dirac and turing etc. Who is "best" is as interesting a discussion as which dinosaur is "best". Obviously the stegosaurus.
Hi Gary, here is a snippet of positivity for you to notch up! I recently bought your autobiography and raved about it to my brother, whose narrative is, 'My sister is good with numbers.. ' and left that as my forte. After raving about your book to him and him reading it, he has a simple understanding of the plight and reason for the plight of the ordinary people who spend the majority of their lives being employed in a 9 to 5 and wanting to have a home and a family, and, be able to provide for them. A change of one mindset at a time will eventually have the power of the people who stand behind it. God bless you for using your gift to bring clarity for ordinary people!
One of the first and best thing’s you’re doing is reclaiming the narrative and encouraging purposeful conversation. It’s a great start. Enjoy your Jolly!
Thanks for the content Gary, it's great to hear your message is filtering through slowly but surely, and as your channel grows that message will get louder and louder. Have a good holiday mate. Fair play about being upfront with regards to donations and funding, I'm certain you'll get plenty of support for the good you're doing.
If the Daily Mail or the FT are trying to smear your character and write attack pieces...bravo👌👏👏👏. Your hitting their readership where they don't like it. Keep it up👍 I'll be sharing this content like crazy 👍👌
Hi Gary, I have no doubt your request for donations with be very well supported by us, your supporters and well wishers. We await next steps on this. The time is certainly right to take your channel to the next level and extend it's reach to larger audience. As an Economics teacher myself, please be reassured that your ideas and proposals for reducing wealth inequality are being heard loud and clear by a rapidly growing number of A' level and undergraduate Economics students. The next generation of Economists, investment bankers, Politician's and industry leaders!!! Your message is definitely building momentum. Thank you for everything you are doing, it is greatly appreciated. Enjoy your much needed holiday, and we look forward to following and supporting you when you return. All the best.
I am trying to spread your message wherever possible Gary. I want to see people mobilise people into the streets. Enjoy your break. You are so appreciated !! 🙏❤️
Please keep going Gary…so important. For me the starting point is (and has been for 45 years) to change voting to a proportional one. Not a panacea…but a door-opener to so much.
@@scallamander4899it would make sense - if you need a coalition representing more than 50% of the population, you can't play to 30% of the population in a way that burns bridges with the other 70%
Yes 100% there is ..just look at Scotland Voting system..then look at the policies.."free"education, prescription, bus, train and many more benefits e@@scallamander4899
@@markwelch3564 that’s absolutely true, but doesn’t it also mean less likelihood of fulfilling manifestos? I’ve seen as much in studies of different electoral systems
@@scallamander4899 it means 50% + of people get most of what they want, rather than 30% getting everything they want at everyone else's expense. It's a healthier balance in politics
Thank you so much Gary. I am so grateful for such good souls like yourself. I have been feeling so low about the state of the country, the world, and ignorance about the reasons for growing inequality. I'm not surprised you're exhausted, but God bless you for leading the way for a more equal world 🙏
Gary! People like you are the true voice of the ordinary person. I've listened to your book on audio, your story is that of a very holistic person. Started off poor, became rich but didn't lose himself in wealth. As a guy the same age as you you're a hero man. My dream is to become wealthy enough to do the kind of thing you're doing now. I do my bit but it's of course hard with less free time. But you are someone I get behind. My only fear is to change anything you need an army of like minded thinkers. You have one in me
I thought a really key insight from your book was that when people hear "inequality" they often think of it as a sort of moralistic afterthought, rather than a matter of practical concern or a driving force in the economy. It's going to take a while to break that pattern of thinking, because it means even when the subject of inequality does get brought up, the message isn't always getting through. But it's achievable. Thank you for all the work you do Gary - enjoy your holiday!
Gary I found you earlier this year and I’ve learned so much from you. I love what you’re doing, and I love your unique perspective of economics, because you’re one of us working class people. So thrilled to see your channel growing even since I found you. You’ve given a lot of us hope that there is something better if we can mobilise and make it happen. We need your continued guidance. Exciting to hear how things are expanding, do what you need to do to continue that momentum. Enjoy your well earned break, so vital to look after yourself and recharge your batteries. Safe travels and thank you 🙏🏻
I got me a copy of your book as soon as it came out, but I've got such a huge backlog of books I've only just read it. Excellent. I see a future for you in writing. Both informative and then informative about your life, but you have also woven the whole into a damn good yarn. All the best.
Nice job, man. Your rhetoric on this stuff is the best I've heard. There's a lot of people out there who agree with you already but they aren't articulating it this well. You're doing valuable work in just providing them good lines and talking points, not even counting the people moved over.
Appreciate your videos dude, we need more people like you saying it how it is. Would love to see more detailed information into the economic side of how everything works, gain more of an understanding and grasping the terminology for example. Knowledge is power as they say 👍
Enjoy your holiday Gary your voice is needed. Interesting that this was filmed about 2 weeks ago and it foreshadows exactly what's happening right now with the mention of immigration and farage. As far as the RU-vid channel goes I think that it would be interesting and helpful for you to interview people. Politicians economists journalists all of the other people out there that engage with these ideas of political economy and to not only share where they're coming from but also engage in a discussion with them about where you're coming from and where everyone needs things to go. I also think on some level you need to become more politically engaged and potentially even run for office and start thinking about that so that you can have the spotlight of being an MP while your campaigning for the movement and your ideas at the same time. If we need someone like you closer to the levers that need to be pulled then that's what we need. And we need to get you closer to the people that are close to those levers.
Richard tice has economic policies that in my opinion would bring about gdp per capita growth if they were to be fully constructed though. When a football team buys a player they use data to find the best player for a position they look to strengthen rather than the colour of their skin. Why can't the uk be more like arsenal and less like a state that uses a quota system for everything..
If wealth inequality is defined as richest 10% vs poorest 10% (or something like that) then you can tax the rich of course, but also improve take home pay for the poor (e.g. increase the personal tax allowance to 20k or even 25k). But it would be interesting to hear Gary’s view of the impact of immigration on inequality, as if you have unskilled immigrants competing for jobs with the “British” working class (whilst also filling up council housing) then a lot of people are going to end up on minimum wage (and unable to get a place of their own due to housing scarcity and increased rents). Sorry if that sounds “far right”, but there must be people caught up in this!
@sandworm9528 mass immigration is a problem though especially when those who enter do not have the same values to that of your country. If you allowed 5 million Japanese people to come every year nobody would protest.
@@stevenrix7024 100% i agree. Crazy how saying we shouldn't accept illegal immigrants and we should just tone down unskilled immigration is far right these days
Take a break and enjoy your holiday! You have worked so hard in building this community and you definitely need more support including financial for it to grow! I hope to see this community eventually support itself and it is possible! I'm so proud of you and how far this channel has come! I know it's hard times right now for us all, but your channel gave me hope for the first time in a very long time! I know this is hard work in the times we live in, and am grateful to you for doing it! Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺♥️
Bless you Gary, the things you've been saying have really cut through. It is so refreshing to have my deepest fears acknowledged, it's not just us, we are all getting poorer and the answer is to tax the rich
Finding your voice was a breath of fresh air for me. Here's my issue with the current situation, no one in history so far has taken on the 1% & won. I wish you'd give us something that we can be hopeful for, solid plan that is viable. Have a great time away, rest is crucial 🙏🤞👌
That is our biggest problem. They have limitless funds to make sure we remain powerless and our voices are not heard or heeded. I really cannot see how we can take control of them even though we far outnumber them. Their power and influence is too vast to overcome. Very depressing.
Just wanted to say thank you for the work you do. I feel I have learnt so much from your videos and no longer sleep walk through some of these areas you have covered mate. Hope your Holiday was a great!
Enjoy your break away! Your channel and the information you provide has help me understand how the economy and finance work, keep doing what you’re doing, thank you 👍
Maybe have a public feed that shows the revenue and outgoings of the channel, including salaries, equipment, marketing etc. That would be amazing because then everyone who donates could see the balance sheet and how they were contributing. Plus, the primary themes of this channel are economics and politics, so adding revenue and costings would simultaneously have the transparency that politics SHOULD have and the figures to educate people on how a business works!!!
Thanks for it everything Gary. I am big’ing you up both here in Adelaide Australia and to my family and friends back in the Uk. Have a great holiday man. Much love.
Keep up the great work Gary, progress is progress. Try not to think as win or loose too binary, even making a dent in the narrative is a win and should be celebrated. You are doing really well, keep going. Nobody can control the when, keep being consistent and good things will come. You are making a difference and I thank you 🙏🏻
Gary great words ! listened from beginning to end . Farage may in your eyes be louder in volume but it's Consistency is false and manipulative! Your message is real and your quest is one that will change People's lives Change is going to come Thank you
