real talk Corbyn to me, as a foreigner, seemed always pretty solid under duress and articulate like I even thought every now and then that he could have been much more of a firebrand to ignite the everliving gently caress out of Boris

Atrocious Joe posted:real question, what do people dislike about Corbyn if its not over Brexit or antisemitism? One of the main reasons is that British news media is uniquely dire and insular. British people may be aware of this (hence iirc trust in journalists as a profession is lower in Britain than in any other developed country) but if your entire exposure to a public figure is mediated through the lens of the media, you can't really help but end up agreeing with their biases.

That's a huge sample size for a poll, though. Like US polls are often 100x smaller.

Don't get your hopes up. It's best to just assume the worst has happened and be pleasantly surprised if it's slightly better than that. We've had enough devastating elections now to know better.

Well at least we still got that Sanders is well liked and antisemitism smear will be a lot trickier for them on him. I assume it will be that all his supporters are anti-semitic though but they still gotta explain why all those people want to make a Jew the most powerful person in the world. Plus outside of maybe a bloomberg spoiler there is a lot less of a threat from a third party run.

And now to turn on the breaking news where everyone is wearing black arm bands for some reason

I like Corbyn’s ideas but I’m not so blinded by them that I can’t see he’s would be considered unlikeable, but then again what British pol isnt I think a lot of people who are huge Labour supporters can’t see that and I hate to say “optics” because it’s stupid but I think a huge part of the country sees him as stern uncle Jeremy

One and Two are the same thing, probably. Decades of austerity has left people with limited political imagination. These days any mention of spending on the poor will cause people to convulse. There's not any leftist candidate you could run that wouldn't have this problem.
