On the surface he speaks with passion and gives a rousing call to arms, but ultimately the message is confused and lacks substance. On one hand talking of 'divide and conquer' with the masses being systematically divided into black/white, North/South, Stay/Remain etc but then builds up into a crescendo of there being a working class/middle class division and thereby playing directly into the hands of those playing the game.
Racial inequality is a true cause, and should not simply be brushed away with an individual's talk of not being a racist, or not noticing skin colour. It's at best a distraction and at worst yet another division to the detriment of the equality movement.
Chris has been known to post on fmttm and so I can say the following in the knowledge that he will be able to give a fair reply. I think he's a self-publicist who has has taken some stick in the past about the content of his comedy acts and has an axe to grind. I think his videos are ultimately about himself, and not about the 'working class' people of the UK that he now says that he speaks for. It just so happens that the original poem has resonated with people, and it has to be said that there are so many topics in the video that it's a bit of a 'catch all'. He is now latching onto this opportunity, with recent videos being aimed towards the USA, with the promise of his stand-up comedy shows being taken there.
He's a great speaker and true character; and I have to say that I'd want him on my side. It just so happens that I disagree with him here, and I think that he's causing even more division, and it's not what is needed. If Chris's crusade is not about 'hate' (which I'm confident it isn't), then he should be wary of the people that are now latching onto him and thereby using his skills and articulation for their own causes (which unfortunately are about hate).
