Mud slinging is a terrible thing to do, no more so than in politics. Corbyn is admirably taking the higher ground and rather gracefully shrugging off the Tory slander that comes his way. Same for the shit he gets from most of the press. He's trying to focus on policies... though much of the current problem is that he hasn't quite decided on his policies, for which he'll continue to be hammered about in the press. As we've learnt over and over again, the only thing worse to the media than an unpopular policy is a U-turn over that policy. It's seen as weak, for some reason, to not listen to evidence and reasoned discussion.
