A quick question for those Labour supporters who loath Corbyn and also for the more enthusiastic door knocking Labour supports.
Do you feel that the loathing, either your own or those you’ve spoken to on the doorstep, is based on Corbyn himself, or his policies?
Frothing right wingers need not apply

I think the Sex Yeti’s honeymoon is going to be short.
So.... asked and answered....by yourself.
Actually it was! Wired technology is becoming increasingly obsolete, it would remove choice/competition, create a monopoly in core communications infrastructure where a strike could cripple all businesses, and place internet access and a lot of personal data under the direct control of the state.
I would not be surprised if he adopts Trump-style rallies now, rebranded Get it Done rallies.He's likely going to visit the White Walkers who put him in power..

Of the people I persuaded to (reluctantly) vote Labour, Corbyn was what made them hesitant. One person who would normally vote Labour, but was ready to not vote at all this time around, saw Corbyn as the problem. A lesser issue was the swathe of policy announcements/spending commitments, which they saw as profligate and (in some cases) unachievable.
Having said that, Johnson is hopeless. His minders kept him away from interviewers who would expose him with relative ease and instead stuck with slogans, photo ops kissing dead fish, wrangling bulls at livestock markets and driving JCBs through polystyrene walls. Boris the clown, Boris the Churchill tribute act, Boris man of the people.You don't have to 'loathe' anyone to think they are not an electoral asset.
He was a campaigner and activist who ended up leader by a curious set of circumstances. Idealistically consensual with few leadership skills and not much ability to inspire people who wouldn't already be onside. He presents better than he did, but still not good. In a media age I thought he would struggle. It's no good thinking these things don't matter, they matter a lot and a leader that has the skills and is media savvy is pretty much a baseline requirement.
If they have an engaging style that's a bonus.

The next Labour leader needs to be charismatic, from the north west and well under 60. Policy should stay the same but be prioritised and fed to voters in smaller chunks.
Andy Burnham would be Labour’s best chance of course.
As someone observing this from the other side of the Atlantic ... the thing I don’t understand is that if Corbyn’s lack of charisma and leadership skills were his downfall, why wasn’t Johnson’s lack of everything you’d ever want in a leader not?
FFS, look at the buffoon. Stupid-haired, racist, ego-centric, fridge-hidin’, jive-assed jive turkey.

That's quite a leap... anyway I was referring more to the core of the idea than any method of its application. And I'll say again .. until someone listens... that the good points of the manifesto were quickly buried by the media so they could attack those they selected for ripping apart.
