  • The universal benefits such as Broadband got (relatively) good press coverage and lead the media cycle.

    For me the free broadband pledge was the end of Corbyn's Labour as a serious political force. The WASPI women stuff, four day week, green revolution, et al, were just nails in the coffin.

    When you took three or four of the policies from the manifesto, they were incredibly popular. That doesn't mean that putting 30 of them in the same manifesto wasn't profoundly damaging for Corbyn's economic credibility.

  • Pretty much on the money. The four day week especially. Dispite being sound, it reeks of the 70s.

    The green revolution, I think was fine. It was pretty dense and comprehensive so I struggle to believe many people without an interest (and bias) read it.
