They're not rapid nasty Tory people; I think they've probably voted Labour in the early 2000's. They voted Remain. They read the Murdoch press (Times, not Sun).
I assume they don't take the risk to me seriously; or still think they know better than their children.
I think they can see a direct line between Corbyn and the Winter of Discontent and the Unions and all that and they simply don't want to vote for him.
I can see that Corbyn is not the guy that's going to persuade potential voters (and they are potential labour voters, they have doubts over May) in the way Blair did, yet they're close to the people that Labour will probably need. Guess we'll see tomorrow.

Didn't want to suggest they're nasty Tory voters (sometimes people get poor other options for example...and they end up with a competent Tory cos the other ones where they live are just really no good for anything)
Some people don't worry as much about Brexit as others, maybe they think it will be OK...
Corbyn is indeed not as charismatic as Blair for many voters. Well we have to wait and see. I'm not hopeful Labour is going to win many seats, but who knows, a hung parliament, getting rid of May for somebody competent... or maybe it's going to be the morning of the Brexit vote all over ;)
[that was not a good week as an EU national as you can imagine. But there are options in mainland EU for all of us, and further abroad if needs be...until the UK really exists, freedom of movement is still there if you want/need it :)]

Wow, even that doesn't convince them?
