- PLAN B - FIRST PAST THE POST (UK Election)
Three and a half weeks ago I knew nothing about the First Past The Post voting system. Writing this song has been an informative exercise for me and the only agenda I have with this video is to try to inform others before this week’s election. So that their vote counts for what it is they actually want. An uninformed voter is worse than a non-voter. So if you know what result you want out of this election but aren't sure on how to get it - watch this video and visit my website www.time4planb.co.uk/firstpast... for more information on the First Past The Post voting system and links to tactical voting.

Piseed CZcams only showed me this TODAY the day after everyone voted.. weird that ay CZcams
Same here
💯
Same
Same..
I saw the non video versions because im subbed but this one got recommend today
Great to hear him rapping again. And a real purpose behind releasing this song.
@Midweek Meltdown nah accessing a collective anger.
Surprised this hasn’t garnered more attention, given how timely & on point it is
CZcams burries whatever video does go against their agenda. A.i has developed rapidly
Even more on point now
Good to see Plan B back and using his platform to encourage people to be more politically aware.
If he was making people more aware, then he would have shared both sides of the argument. Seems like him and his fans aren’t interested in highlighting the other side of the benefits of past the post. ‘Proportional vote share’ allows densely populated areas like cities to tyrannise whole swathes of the country. In this scenario, the cities would become more rich because they have higher populations and the rural areas more poor...so the poor would still have absolutely no voice because they are subject to those who benefit from their labour. If we abolished past the post we would be abandoning vast parts of the country and creating even more divisive gulfs.
And for the record; this election, Torys got 43.6% of the share whilst labour only got 32.6%...so tories still would have won the overall election by a landslide.
@@coby00 truth, the whole song is full of misinformation and bias.
Lexi Johnson I was thinking the same thing.. Who funded this lol. So hard to get some truth out of a lying world.
Meg megie Have to agree with everything you said. People herd like sheep. All do the same things and that’s usually be a law abiding citizen, serve the master and don’t forget to pay your taxes. We are in the age of corporates coming at you if you owe them a penny. There really is no such thing as being free. Life is the hardest it’s ever been in history, now. The gov of every country given power to elites and they call the shots. That leaves the rest of us peasants to live a life of misery and lack of hope. Yet the general population just carry on as they want to live a quiet peaceful life. The ones we vote for and expect to do things to help us already have their hidden agendas which are not beneficial to the people they represent, so it’s all bullshit!
Meg megie would love to have a sit down chat about the world and all it’s injustices lol. If only the masses were not like lemmings wandering around aimlessly, we might have stood a chance of getting some critical minds together who could actually try to do something to bring positive change as all these parties are in bed together and there’s no real freedom of democratic choice. Glad some people know their shit in a world full of Instagram and social media binge-ers. Just more lies and confusion on those platforms too
Lyrics that educate are very rare , and so is talent , Plan B you are excellent .
Such a naturally talented artist, still got that rawness that he had since the start, his word play and delivery is so on point ;)
Agree bro 🤜🤛
Lyrically he surprises u like eminem.. u think u know,then bamm he got u thinking
@@lifekicks79 Yeah you know, he reminds me of the UK eminem haha, hope he starts dropping some more soon 😉
This geezer is so on point! Plan B is so under-rated!
He's a genius.
@@rossleeson8626 For real bro 🙌
He's also confused as to how the American voting system works. Slags off democracy then slags of a representative republic lol.
@@leonleeson5904 nothings perfect, there isn't a correct or best government, there will always be problems or things we disagree with. That's is nothing wrong with that.
@Sidney Stamford What exactly - in your uber 'informed' opinion, do you think the United States have been doing since the end of the second World War?
Read a book you might learn something... If you're starting with the dictionary - try the word 'hegemony'.
Funny how youtube only show me this AFTER the election 🙄
How many comments the same as this did you read before deciding to comment on mine, misserable prick
How am I only seeing this now? The day after election
Amazing: just searched for old hits and surprisingly here’s the new one!
So good to hear you back on the hip hop flex Ben and big up for this, you smashed it. 👏🏼😊 I only caught it today and unfortunately, criminality, lies and amorality prevailed once again. Keep fighting the good fight. ✊🏼👊🏼✌🏼
The lack of views on this song shows the need for it
BRILLIANT, PLAN B IS ON POINT! We need more real chat like this, not bullshit lyrics, this is eye opening rap, we need more of it. RISE UP UK
People saying they wish they saw this before they voted.... How many of you actually voted?
Why am I only seeing this Now CZcams!!! Plan B always on Point 💯😘❤
Only saw this today, not surprised seeing as there were ads for the Tory party across CZcams before the election.
“Tories did it” gtfo with that us vs them bs.
Absolute Legend Welcome Back Plan B 🙌
I'm massively impressed, this is very well put together. I didn't expect it to be so clear and concise, I expected more anger and hyperbole. This is Akala levels of content.
Also, the bit about 'OAPs' hits. And he knows it, hence the borderline accapella. As a whole this is so well done. Would've shared it everywhere if I saw it pre-election.
The OAP part is the most inaccurate though, considering we are damaging the planet on a far greater scale than ever before
@@djfergalsharky4979 Plus why wouldn't OAP vote to help their indoctrinated young grandchildren, after all, they have more years of wisdom. This silly argument that they only vote for themselves... they vote for what they believe is best for the country. Ageism is a prejudism and its wrong.
Real ones know we either need a Who Needs Actions or Paint It Blacker sequel, the long awaited Ballad of Belmarsh or jus another rap album in general from the goat real talk...
Paint it blacker was so sick
Paint it blacker was the sickest plan b album defo need a part2 👌🏻
Fucking bang on.
This guy 👍🏻
Wonder how many people in the comments dont know about them 2 albums
Where you been man ? Missed this straight forward thinking ....love it !
He’s back yesszzzz
Cannot begin to say how much I love this!
I came here because of the mention in Ren's song. Great sound, I'm glad I found this.
Love he’s back spitting about true shit was jst a tad to late to get his message across properly tho should have done it a few weeks earlier
Unfortunately it wouldn’t have made a difference if you had heard it then.
hes a tiny bit off base on some of the US stuff. the electoral college is the only reason the united states exist and makes sure populated coastal cities don't dictate to everyone else.
@@MelloYellow2099 In the past few elections in the UK, the populated left-leaning cities haven't been able to dictate to everyone else either.
golazo Switch “last few elections” to forever and you’re correct
If you followed him, you would have got the message in time
. Simples
This is entirely brilliant. Honestly, I agree with its message even if I don't love the music itself. I've started writing letters, which I know will be in vain, to my MP to attempt to change the system, but if everyone does it, it might make some kind of difference.
Talking from the heart and giving a voice and platform to those who don't
Mmm I've totally been waiting for you to post something and I'm so glad I saw it! I totally love that you always have a relevant and topical message bruh❤ The world needs more people like you.
Happiness is #1 on my xmas list ^.* Have a good one!
What a time to drop this... very clever... and a legend and too underrated... ill manors album and film should have more recognition too
Hes BACK! ❤ And talking sense too!!! Why have I only seen this NOW after election?! Could have helped many!!!! X
Wierd that im only seeing this pop up now ay? Big up Plan B met once in Liverpool and had a good talk always been using the voice for good ✊
Welcome back Sir, you've been sorely missed.
This was the weirdest - and best Public Service Announcement I've seen since Rolf Harris taught little kids to swim. Top work, Plan B
Damn bro straight heat much love from the US 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Voice of Broken Britain.
A wee ill manors reference 👌 love it!
i think you mean voice of globalist london.
I was looking up one of his old songs "the writings on the wall" and then I clicked his most recent song to see what it was like and honestly I did not expect this at all
Where was this political articulation when I was growing up?! Glad it's here now!
First time I heard plan b was back in ‘06 on radio 1. It was “no more eatin”. I bought the “paint it blacker” mixtape off the old website and they sent me 2 signed copies in the post! Big up to Ben drew for doing his own thing and having the balls to create Ill manors. Massive respect for this artist! My only regret is we never got a recorded version of “reveal” with killa kela, that shit was hard dude wtf!
Conscious bars, the youth need more of this!
Pete conscious? Get out
Why has this not got more views! This is dope af!!! Plan B still dropping bangers
Jhezzz the beat as well 🔥🔥 dropping knowledge don’t need a plan A when you got a Plan B like this 💥💯
Good to see him doing some o' the old classic Plan B hip-hop. He's always been talented at that. This is a different type of education he's trying to bring to the people
Special Appearance from the legend Grime Gran🔥
This is the plan b the fans from day one all love and hoped would return!!!
Nice to see this side of you again bro! Keep em coming!! ;)
Yesssssssss he is back!!!!! 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
He's backkk , Ive missed his rapping I actually met him back in 2011
Plan B, I am the real slim from Detroit. I been following you since "prayin". With this track you have showed much courage to call out the most evil oligarch 1%. well done!
Oh yeah, this is about the youth future. Stand for human rights. Stand vigilant and fearless. A mans value is not how much money he has, but it is within his moral compass.
The Plan B I remember! Back to your routes, amazing!! 😎
Don't know too much about politics, but banging tune. More of this !!! ;)
Heavy track with real meaning
Yes B..absolutely smashed it!! 🔥
Banger, impressed with this! I'm sure I saw grime gran beating him with a slipper for this video tho and they never even used it 😂 😂 funny
This beat and msg 🔥
This is what I wanna hear! Come on Ben!
Just had to check it out again it's actually pretty dope keep it up bro
Good to see you back big lad 👊
I think plan b is one if the most underrated artists ... I don't know if it's him that doesn't care to push to much or the music system that doesn't allow him to do more of his stuff ... personally he is one of the few artists that i like ALL of his music ,the others TRICKY , ROISIN MURPHY (and maybe another couple of names) because they didn't sell themself and keep doing their music staying true to themself and i think plan b is like them ...wish I could listen to even more of his stuff ...sorry for the sermon ...
Hes back and speaking more truth 🔥
Let's go Ben!!!! Welcome back my guy.
Missed this plan b, great work! Keep it up.
It sucks to know just how talented this man is, and yet know that so very few will get to hear him!
the boys back spitting ffire , but anyone else think he looks totally different and lost a lot of weight ??
He did since last album
Life gets us all eventually
He looks like Tommy Robinson with the wig on
He reminds me of English Frank in this
I love this man but he needs to put some weight back on he looks ill!!!
Been here since the beginning Plan B. It's good to see you back
Alway have and always will be a huge Stanley of Plan B. Been here since day dot an "WHAT??"
💯👊
🔥🎙️🔥
Can’t lie if I watched this before the election, might not have voted Lib Dem
adam k.a shouldve voted Lib Dem anyway
How did that turn out for you?
West Yorkshire what because this explains the voting system properly? Shut up bro
West Yorkshire so you feel the right to try and explain the british political system but you don’t know the different between “loses” and “looses” okay champ. Learn your spelling first.
Lib Dem’s are similar to conservatives tho
Blair promised electoral reform in the run up to the ‘97 election until he got in power and realised it might work against him.
Finally waited so long for this return
Bring some new music out man! Need another album like "who needs action when you got words"
CZcams held this video back till after the vote was done 💯😡
Yes it would have made alllll the difference wouldnt it hahaha
@@freftd it could of done
No it couldn't.
"Three and a half weeks ago I knew nothing about the First Past The Post voting system."
yeah lets listen to this guy, he's politically aware and informed LOL
Very impressive, could swing a lot of people on a few listens. What a bloke.
Lol
🤣
Not really, vast majority of people have made up their minds on who they are voting for by now.
The fact he's trying to do that shows you what a disingenuous turd he is.
2:40 best part, something ive not seen thus far in rap. Good timing, good song, definately different from everything else, mans got spark, to light up the darkness, that is ignorance!!! Keep em coming!! :)
The uk needs you back bro, true talent with the intelligence to make music impactful. The scene has never needed you more.
Seriously, this is so underrated.
Finally he’s back rapping where he belongs!! Top 3 mcs to ever come out the UK
true true :)
1st best rapper
Koray Kaya definitely not
Brandon Z you must be 15 then go back and do you’re research kid
One of the best story tellers going. Hands down.
Plan b is back ❤️ more of this please 👌🔥🔥
Dec 2019, you need a clear head for what's approaching...
If you need clarity on what is happening then watch this. I am the archetypal white (OLDER) middle class voter, but guess what I would rather every citizen of the UK were able to vote after seeing this than not. I wonder if you would consider creating a rhyme for each of the party's actual positions Plan B. Forget radio 4, this is how to educate.
Love it old school again 💯
nicely done geeza big message 👊👊
Plan Brexit has arrived
Good
Yeah CZcams what's going on dropping this fine tuneage after the event... what's your agenda then eh... cant keep us dummed down for much longer... us "commaners" aren't stupid.
The irony that you spelt commoner wrong.
the irony is, you dont get it.
@@mattpressland.5416 Bet you're a yank
@@packlimo Bet I'm not 😆
CZcams isn't hiding this video it popped up on recommended
Man oh Man I've been waiting for Ben to spit some rhymes again for years !
Thanks for informing us plan b :]
Who saw this on their feed before the election... Asking for a friend
Nope, six days after...
The map you're using is of counties, not the constituencies
if he used a map of constituencies you wouldnt be able to see anything but a solid colour white
Would still be more accurate
Who ever done the map definitely got Scotland wrong
My Politics teacher showed the class this and honestly it's a class tune
Thank's for this, this will inform my son properly on his first time voting.
We in south Asia have the same system thanks to the british raj.
If voting actually made a difference they wouldn’t let us do it.
The stupidest comment I've seen this year. Congrats
Joshua O'Connor only ten likes as well killing it I am 👋🏻
RONNO 1 that is literally the most il-informed and dangerous idea out there. If more people voted instead of thinking like this we wouldn’t have a fucking Tory majority
@@milesm1234 and what makes you think the people who didn't vote would all change the tide?
@@superconkerz how is it stupid? It's like Maggie's steering wheel in the Simpsons intro, you're given the illusion you're driving the car.
Great tune Planb
Missed opportunity this. I was a fan of Plan B from 2011 when I moved to London from Ireland. 10 years later, I wonder where he is and then I see this gold and, unfortunately, far too late. CZcams's algorithm knows I want to eat eggs before I do, yet it didn't decide to show me this. Ever! WTF?
This has convinced me to vote. When’s the election?
We Need this to be the xmas number 1 sooooo bad!!! 💯💯💯
Why does this not have more views?
Teenage lyrics like Aitch are more appealing these days 🤣
Genius back at work...
If this isn't enough to get you to vote then I don't know what is! Well done Plan B 👏👏
Why hasn’t 1xtra got behind this tune ?!?
Its BBC that's why they can't have people violating there oeopl
Good to see him back👍
Oh wow - what a clever so and so! This elated and depressed me at the same time ☮
