@cstross@wandering.shop Corbyn certainly wasn’t without his problems but I refuse to believe he is the sum total of what the party has to offer on the left

@NotTheLBCGuy@mstdn.social Alas, Corbyn is what Labour was left with after they systematically attacked their own left for a couple of decades. He only stood up as the left candidate for leader because nobody else would. So then the party backstabbed him.

@NotTheLBCGuy@mstdn.social @cstross@wandering.shop It’s always interesting that there are always so few people ”eligible” for top jobs. ”I promise, there weren’t any others” Yeah, sure. How many members do you have, and what exactly are the qualifications? Did you have to pick the utter bastard?
