    I don't know who this Jeremy Corbin chap is, is he a Tory?

    Seriously though did you even read the last page? In the old world of politics that would probably have been the case. Now, who knows.

    That's based on your own primary research, what happened over thirty years ago, or what you've heard repeated again and again in the media?

    Labour was in a very precarious electoral position before Corbyn was made leader. An almost insurmountable deficit of votes thanks to Scotland and the soon to be redrawn electoral borders. Not to mention Ukip and the Green party winning previous Labour votes. To simply keep repeating that Corbyn will make Labour a pariah party isn't particularly insightful, original, or helpful.

    It's five years away and he may very well be ousted before then. But I don't see how his leadership has put the party in a position so radically different than it was in before.

  • It means you don't really understand the current political landscape.
