The Camden New Journal and the Islington Tribune is launching this new online channel to expand the campaigning, independent journalism we have become known for to a broader audience.
Peeps Online will be available on our new platform on CZcams and include films and interviews aimed at going behind the headlines and hearing from people you don’t always see on the national news.
While the UK’s media has contracted, often pumping out the same stories and messages regardless of which channel you choose, the CNJ has always believed that the media only survives and thrives with pluralism, and cannot be the fiefdom of the rich.
We have no shareholders or faraway owner to appease. There are no excessive pay packets - the money that comes in is spent to simply cover the cost of good journalism.

The city that loves to be different (and it's a problem for Labour)
Peeps' election tour stopped in Brighton to see whether the Greens' can hold on to their only parliamentary seat. Caroline Lucas has represented Brighton Pavilion since 2010 - but is stepping down at this general election. It sets up a battle between the party's new candidate Sian Berry (a former Camden councillor) and Tom Gray, the Gomez musician standing for Labour. It is a source of endless irritation for Labour that they have struggled to take all three seats in a diverse city, but as we found out: Brighton is a city that is proud to be different.

Sadly for the media, there's no jeopardy in the coming election. Labour will win, and "problems" like this will be the difference between having a 200 seat majority and a 198 seat majority. It doesn't matter. What matters is getting rid of the Tories, and that's been a safe bet since even before Partygate, Truss, and Sunak made it a certainty, which it now has been for years.
VOTE REFORM PARTY AND TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK. LABOUR WILL BE A DISASTER AS THEY WILL DESTROY OUR ECONOMY AS USUAL, AND WILL FLOOD MILLIONS OF ILLEGALS AND IMMIGRANTS INTO OUR COUNTRY.

Brighton people seem to be a bit up themselves.
It’s not a la carte. Vote Labour
Absolute,y not!
My town (Margate - the new Brighton, thanks to Time Out etc) is now full of these poncey middle-class hipster types. Luckily for Labour, the prospective MP that's been parachuted in has recently, like a lot of them, come from Hackney, so she's a shoe-in.
Great video ! Went brighton uni and miss the little green oasis ! presenter is great too!
Only been to Brighton once but loved the place. Also refreshing to see sane debates for and against and even the more maverick types not being anywhere near as toxic as a lot of the country is at the moment. Keep doing you, Brighton!
If “I’m not like other girls” was a city 😅
Fully expected this to be about Bristol, not Brighton. Brighton's been progressive / Green for donkey's
Lord, these people are living as true ostriches. They have no idea what a working class white boy or girl in Birmingham or Oldham or anywhere else "up north" is facing for their future. Everything they talk about itls so detached from so many working class folk on the UK. It's truly embarrassing. "The rest of the UK public don't get the environment. I know it all and they're wrong". Shudder! It's truly another planet. Brighton and Hove should be called Camden and Islington on Sea.
Diversity? Everyone was white.
I dont know how you can say youre a socialist but voting labour under its current leadership...
Good for the Greens and hope that they gain more seats. The north American woman who has swallowed the narrative of the Tory press. London on sea

Is it because it's just the concentration of "alternative" types who have migrated there from the tory hinterlands of the South East?
What a bunch of idiots
“…the Labour guy’s very champagne…” 😂 couldn’t have put it better! Labour are no better than the Tories under Starmer. In fact they maybe worse. Starmer and his candidates have taken more gratuities from corporate lobbyists than any Labour leaders and MPs in living memory! He’s going to continue with the damaging austerity practice and is offering no hope or change whatsoever, despite what was printed on the front of his manifesto. Voting for Labour now would be like voting for the Tory party in 1987. Even John Major thinks the Labour Party aren’t what they used to be and he’s been equally critical of his own party, the Tories! Just because the Tories have lurched so far to the right doesn’t mean Labour should lurch right too. Vote Independent. Vote SNP (depending on where you are). Vote Green. Vote anyone but the Tories or Labour.
4:50 The fuck is she on about? Labour loves Israel.
It's not a problem for Labour at all. Labour don't need Brighton, in fact anyone to the left of the cons and the racism party is good for Labour and the future of the country.

I would vote green if they hadn't fallen for the scam about carbon dioxide as a driver of climate change. Net zero is expensive to us, and is like taxing gravity. It is depressing how many people have bought into the lies and can't be bothered to do a little bit of unbiased research.
It's like a lefty asylum 😂
Say Kinnock who I remember didn’t stand with the Miners, what a joke & a shame 😮
man , I wish those coal mines were still open now! Those were the days
Voting Green is an indication your mental faculty is at a cognitive level where you probably shouldn't be voting.
Let's all hope the Greens and Independents do well and the racist Labour party don't! #Labour=racists czcams.com/video/ExtJtAbW-nQ/video.html&ab_channel=RedGlasgow
Greens and Lib Dems need to unite the left and be one party.
Ah yes 2 centerist parties for the middle-classes that don't care for working people forming a united left? Might as well ask David Cameron to lead the left.
Never in a million years. Green economic policy is utter fantasy. LibDems shouldn't touch it with a barge pole.
Theresa May would be considered left wing in such a tie up
Some folk are only happy being shit on it’s a fetish
Glad the Monster Raving Looney Party supporter has found his political home. Also the woman at 9:20 ish seems to be totally incoherent. Saying she’s a teacher so she supports Labour (good luck), she likes Caroline Lucas but would never have voted for her. Criticises Sian Berry for not being local when Lucas was not local either. Ridiculous.
Hippie
Shes a tory they have no shame at all
The Greens were in power with the SNP in Scotland and they were useless.SNP had to ditch them.
The Greens winning a seat is not a problem for Labour. It helps shift the Overton window in the right (left) direction. Labour have the burden of needing to appeal to the masses to get elected. If they're not in power, no progressive policies can be implemented, no matter how many they might want to or how good they might be.
I studied it in school but I forgot lol, what is the Overton window again?
@@oliverqueen5883It’s essentially what is acceptable to talk about in politics. For example, if anti-bourgeoisie MP’s become elected, the overton window shifts to the left so that now the main party, such as labour, can now talk about taxing wealth without being criticised as much. Whereas we’re seeing a right-ward overton window shift with the rise of Reform. Tories move right to win Reform voters, Labour move right to pick up Tory voters and the left wing gets damaged.
Didn't you spot rabid right winger Paul Thorpe .
Not spotted. At what time point is he?
@@ElNeo9778 I was asking the film maker. He lives in Brighton and films there .
Aussie here. In my country young people are increasingly being drawn to the Greens and independents because the so called progressive party in Australia, the Australian Labor Party (ALP) has become a very weak, Tame, political organisation. The ALP is in all seriousness more conservative than the defacto conservative party in Australia, the Liberal Party. I have been following the UK election it sounds like Labour doesn't have much to offer young people. Just another flavour of Conservative.
Labour offer much more to the young than the greens in the UK. The greens in the UK are the party for upper middle class NIMBYs, primarly well off middle aged voters, they're anti-tech, anti-infrastructure, and anti-science. The greens are just conservatives that want a nice view, don't give a s**t about the young or nomal working people.
Another Aussie here, and while I understand being underwhelmed by Starmer, his "small target" strategy makes a lot of sense as the Conservatives are defeating themselves. Hopefully the differences will be more obvious post-election.
If not being able to text on buses is one of your main issues then you’re not in the real world mate , I’m guessing that they didn’t interview anyone living on the street then ?
Its not a problem for most of Labor, for most of the membership this sort of competition is represents hope for the Leadership to be fored backbinto being a labor party again.
Problem is the greens barely collect the bins, that sounds pretty bad for the environment leaving literal shit on the pavement
When they are removed. from office they should be investigated for crimes against there own people they have British blood on there hands and they must be held accountable by the law.
we need proportional representation.
To Hip for Labour..........seriously. Well good luck with the Tories for another 5 year .......Cool and Fools
In Brighton Greens are the most sure option to stop the Conservatives. If Labor want to be certain of Tory defeat their they should stand aside for the same reasons they constantly tell small party's to in other places.
Lmao you are consuming too much propaganda. The race in Brighton is between Labour and the Greens, so you’re either: lying or ignorant
@@owenthomas5103 Why should Labour stand asside for Green Tory NIMBYs.
@@matthewbentley1236 by Labors own logic in other constituency is that the greens should step down so as not to split votes from Labor who have the best chance of keeping the conservatives out. But in Brighton and a few other placed it's Greens who have the graiter chance of keeping the torys out - so by their own logic labor should stand aside to stop vote- splitting. Of course they could just do what Stana promised in his leadership campaign and try to put a stop to all thus disruption past the post nonsense
