British marxist comedian. From wikipedia:

Around the age of 15, Sayle decided to join the Young Communist League, but only went to a few meetings. In 1968, he joined a Maoist organisation, the Communist Party of Britain (Marxist–Leninist). In 2009, he said that, while no longer active in left politics, "I still would adhere to those philosophical and economic ideas of Marxism that I got when I was sixteen. ... it's seemed to me as true now as it did then".

On Corbyn:

In February 2016, Sayle said of Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn: "He's ascetic and morally incorruptible. The propaganda that's thrown against him is disgraceful. Until he appeared, you had to vote for one kind of Oxbridge twat or another, people who all go to the same dinner parties, people like the Ed Ballses and George Osbornes. Jeremy has shown that, within a democratic tradition, other things are possible."

UK comic from the 80s./90 and actor (and acquired taste if I’m honest). But he was part of the “alternative comedy” scene that was responsible for moving the UK comedy scene on from racist and misogynistic comedy that was mainstream in the 70s.

He’s a Long standing communist, and more thoughtful these days, but his podcast can be rambling.

We also have to thank the FBU (fire brigades union) for this. They're one of two or three prominent unions left in the UK that are still radical. Thanks to them, firefighters refuse to help police arrest protesters.
