Corbyn says he is ‘here to serve the people’ as he outlines new party plans

Transcript

00:00Jeremy, one of the things that there's been a lot of talk about is whether you will turn your alliance of MPs into a formal party

00:09and whether you're thinking of contesting the next election as a formal party. Where are you on that?

00:16The alliance group of MPs, five of us, have worked very hard and very well together over the past year in Parliament

00:21and we're coming up to our first anniversary.

00:23But there's some data that shows that if you did launch a party, you might do rather well.

00:27Well, exactly. So next time you ask questions, ask about the alternative of a left, independent party, of a socialist view that's being put.

00:37So where are you going to create one?

00:39Let me finish. You're so excited. You just want it to start, don't you?

00:43We haven't got long. The reason I'm pushing is we haven't got long to the end of the party.

00:46That's what it is. There's a lot of people all around the country in different independent groups.

00:50You look in Birmingham, look in Liverpool, look in Southport and so on.

00:53There is a thirst for an alternative view to be put.

00:56I'm working with all of those people. That grouping will come together.

01:00There will be an alternative view and there will be an alternative put there,

01:04which is about a society that deals with poverty, inequality and a foreign policy that's based on peace rather than war.

01:11And would you like to lead that group?

01:13I'm here to work. I'm here to serve the people in the way I've always tried to do.

01:18I'm here to serve the people in the way I've always tried to share it.

01:23But it's not fair.
