To be fair, Corbyn has made himself look a right stupid wanker these last few weeks. He’s the gift that keeps on giving, and constantly proves why Starmer will probably win a dirty landslide
As an American, I always watched Corbyn from afar thinking of him as your version of Bernie Sanders. Sanders has disappointed of late as well with his refusal to call for a ceasefire and his less than nuanced blind support of Israel’s bombardment of civilians. So… I guess Corbyn’s unwillingness to call Hamas a terrorist org feels very similar.

He is the eternal bogeyman, perfect to frighten centre right labour members back in line.

He’s not exactly the devil and not exactly the perfect angelic vision that each side makes him out to be.
I like his national, social policies. I don’t like his foreign policy.
Despite it affecting far less of the country, his foreign policy is what got him lambasted in the media.
