About the film
In 2017, with the support of an extraordinary grassroots movement, British Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn came close to becoming prime minister. The establishment trembled. Britain stood on the threshold of huge political change. But within three years all, it seemed, was lost. What happened and why?
Produced by award-winning radical film-maker Platform Films, with contributions from Jackie Walker, Ken Loach, Andrew Murray, Graham Bash and Moshe Machover, and narrated by Alexei Sayle, this feature-length documentary film explores a dark and murky story of political deceit and outrageous antisemitic smears. It also uncovers the critical role played by current Labour leader, Keir Starmer and asks if the movement which backed Corbyn could rise again.
The screening will be followed by a discussion and question and answer session with the panel which will include:
Norman Thomas, of Platform Films, the producer of the Oh, Jeremy Corbyn! The Big Lie.
Naomi Wimborne-Idrissi, co-founder of Jewish Voice for Labour, who has been expelled from the Labour Party
Diana Neslen, a prominent Palestine solidarity activist who faced numerous disciplinary charges by the Labour Party relating to allegations of antisemitism.
Further panel members to be announced nearer to the date.
