Great interview. Matt came across as a very thoughtful individual. No glib, trite posturing. Ben's questions were also very much to the point.

'Ceding control of your life over to other people, rarely a good idea' reminds me of my grandad who was in the original IRA during the war of independence and ended up in Kilmainham Gaol after lots of dodgy close scrapes. He never wanted to talk about it the rest of his life, all he'd say was 'be VERY careful what you sign your name to'.

You can see how sharp his observation is. Theres's always that chance that someone might be watching, and you can see how studied and careful he is. A really interesting talk.

A podcast worth listening to it reminds us that the art of the possible should never be an excuse to give up on freedom and that resisting injustice and fighting for liberation is a right understood by people who have known imprisonment torture displacement and the true meaning of land and homeland
