"Corbyn may yet succeed in his dream of rehabilitating Trotsky "
Rhetorical garbage and a spectacular display of ignorance of politicis in anty shape or form.
Where has Corbyn ever proposed ever proposed the theory of 'Permanent Revolution' or suggested the taking and holding of power by armed struggle, or anything resembling the ideas of Trotsky
You have a nasty dose of the 'Norman Tebbits'.
If anything, Corbyn is proposing a return to the principles and ideas that brought about the Labour party - they resemble the ideas of Michael Foot, or those introduced by the post war Labour Government which rebuilt Britain following W.W.2. - a fair policy which gave us social housing, a decent medical service, an industry that was run for the people of Britain rather than the enrichment of the few - and a voice in the workplace - oll eroded and eventually destroyed by fascists like Thatcher.
Head-cases like you seem happy to go with what has been acheived by here and her jackbooters - a rapidly increasing inequality - no industry and an uncertain economy
Trostkyism my arse
Right-wing politicking in the extreme
Don't suppose you'd like to point oout any specific examples of "Trotskyism" in the Labour manisfesto
No?
Thought not
