In the sense that Schweik means it, yes he was, yes he was, yes he is (no need to split hairs, Nigel!). I don't take too much interest in politics, as I'm too cynical to have any faith in any of them. However, Corbyn does strike me as at least believing in a large part of what he propounds. But the UK press will have a field day with him.

You might not like it, but neither Kinnock nor Milliband were elected (and, I must admit, I did laugh when Balls was unelected, but that's another matter). Corbyn won't be either, and if, as seems likely, he becomes Labour leader, I am afraid that Labour make themselves unelectable. I do not express a personal political point of view in saying so; I just think that's the way the UK is.

I appear to be not disagreeing with Probably Mr Mather again. The world Probably ends next week! ;-)
