Answer 1

If your kubeconfig was created automatically by gcloud then your user is not the all powerful admin user - which you are trying to create a binding for.

Use gcloud container clusters describe --zone on the cluster and look for the password field.

Thereafter execute kubectl --username=admin --password=FROMABOVE create clusterrolebinding ...
