It will be 9-12 months before we know which direction he is going in. If it goes the wrong way ........ the damage to the UK will be bad enough to get the people to rise up against him and The Tories, and then the next election could very well swing even further the other way.
Corbyn cost Labour the election because he wanted another referendum, without realising this WAS the 2nd referendum! I also think he was subject to the same political anti-Semitic and pro-Russia propaganda overload that appears to be the norm in so called democracies these days. No real proof needed ..... accusation is enough.
Time will tell!
Corbyn’s past activities are a matter of open record. When he moved from 37 year fire-brand backbench “rebel” to leader of HMO (Milliband’s rule changes) they of course became the subject of wider scrutiny. He was clearly electoral arsenic and the people who knew him best - Labour MPs - voted to get rid of him 172/40. They were right, too. He didn’t take Labour to its worst electoral performance in 85 years due to something like antisemitism but because he was clearly the most inappropriate candidate for leader of the UK in our lifetime. Among other things.
“Pro-Russia propaganda”? Well, you should know!
Labour is now in a death spiral.
From what I have seen, McDonald hasn't learnt and Labour will maintain its current trajectory with Momentum towards an ideologogy most people can't support.
They won't get back in for at least 40 years the way they are going.
In fact I believe that after the BREXIT dust settles, the Liberal democrats will replace Labour as the second party.
More and more Traditional Labour voters will abandon Labour and will be looking for a new party. Some went to Tories but I doubt the Tories will maintain these votes forever so once BREXIT ceases to be an issue I think the new home will be Liberal Democrats.
Labour MPs actually came out and said that Traditional Labour voters who voted Tories in the Midlands and North East were STUPID. I would love to ask them if they thought these voters were stupid when they voted for labour all their lives. Maybe they did, which is a real slap in the face towards voters in general.
Bye bye Corbynistas. You are the most deplorable human beings. A bunch of
deplorables! Unfit and unworthy to govern so piss off to Venezuela or something!
