Disappointing to hear. I really hope the new party doesn’t fall apart over this shit.

      He’s never been a great leader. His feebleness is his Achilles’ heel.

      This is why I really wish Sultana were in charge. Plus Corbyn will be 80 by the next election.

        Is this why he handled the antisemitism charges so badly during his election? Did he just never fight back on those or something? I was in the midst of Bernie fever and wasn’t super paying attention to UK politics at the time.

          That is Corbyn’s biggest weakness, he knows he’s from a privileged background, so any accusation of racism or anti-semitism, he’ll be on the defensive. He’s too nice of a guy to be successful in the vicious bourgeois political landscape dominated by corporate media, they’ll slander him no matter he does.
