I'd love to know what you think he'l achieve for the area as an independent considering how little he achieved as an MP of a major party across his career.
I think the use of the word 'voice' is very telling for Corbyn as he seems to be great at speaking up but terrible at making any of that rhetoric happen.

I have a mate who used to be pretty high up in the Labour Party. He said that MPs, particularly in London, spend most of their time dealing with housing and immigration problems for their constituents (for individuals, not big picture stuff).
I've no doubt that Corbyn would be good at that kind of thing, it was when he actually tried to do big picture politics that it all went wrong.

I think he’s done plenty for his constituents over the years. I also approve of the way he’s voted in parliament. And he’s generally against military action, this is important to me. And he’s a socialist, I approve of that. And he supports freedom for Palestine and always has done. All things that I believe in.

Jeremy Corbyn is a great local MP in as much as he gets stuck into local issues. For example my other half used to be a trustee of a local charity and whenever there was a fundraising event or something he could be counted on to turn up. I met him about 35 years ago when he took a group of kids round the house of parliament. I wouldn't vote for him now though.
