While it's only council stuff it is nonetheless perhaps a fair indicator of grass-roots feelings which are where you might hope Corbyn's style of politics to show that it is changing opinions.
I recall from somewhere that Lib dems have always been strong at council level. Given this strength (people already think they're good there) I can see them outperforming Labour easily, just on the basis of Brexit alone. I think Labour are screwed here as well.

There were some by-elections yesterday
While Labout held their one seat, and two others were unchanged, it's interesting to see that the three of the Conservative seats shifted strongly to the Lib Dems at the expense of both the Conservatives (mostly) and Labour (less so). The other Conservative seat went to Independents.
While it's only council stuff it is nonetheless perhaps a fair indicator of grass-roots feelings which are where you might hope Corbyn's style of politics to show that it is changing opinions. But evidently it's not.
