Working class Guy Matthews contacted after Facebook post spotted

A groundbreaking – and outstandingly sweary – new pro-Labour video with a message to working-class people has gone viral, with over a million views in its first three days just on Twitter.

The video was made after Guy Matthews’ Facebook post was spotted by Simon Baker, a film-maker who has made some of Labour’s game-changing party political broadcasts (PPBs), with just a tiny bit of help from the SKWAWKBOX, which put the two in touch.

The brilliant result – intended to be the first of a series featuring genuine working-class voices talking to working-class people – is completely authentic and superbly constructed:

1 million views in 72hrs. We’re proud to have helped this grassroots voice to be heard.



Many more will follow.

Film-maker Baker is looking for more working-class people with something they want to say.
