Yes, I have noticed him leaving a very modest home on television. He seems a very pleasant, quietly spoken man. He seems to have impressed young people particularly. They are young, and idealistic. I remember it well........

But, surely now, even these idealistic young Labour party members can see the way this is going. He is a leader in Parliament, with few followers. It is a slow motion car crash. Even the Tory opposition are not jeering in the house. It has gone beyond laughing at, even for them. They are seeing the main opposition falling apart before their eyes.

Its quite a sad state to be honest..and the man should pack his bags now and leave with some dignity.

... And he's still holding on, like a straggler hanging around way after the party has finished...

Corbyn is about as successful as Michael Foot - and should be mentioned in the same sentence when discussing clueless labour disasters.
