think someone needed to remind those on the right in the Labour party(watered down tories) that the Labour party is still a socialist party or at least WAS
JC is just tapping into the people who did not bother to vote or moved away from the labour party, yes maybe a rocky few years for the Labour party, but also a rocky few years for the tories as well.
a vote for any of the other three you might just as well vote for the tories and be done with.
and as for the right wing papers"I think the lady doe'st(s) protest to much"
I am not a Labour Party member, but a "to the right of the left" type voter, who might equate to someone on the right of the Labour Party.
And I utterly resent and refute the "watered down Tories" bit. I could no more vote Tory than I could cut off my left leg with a blunt and rusty penknife. And this government has done more to perpetuate that than any other in my 44 years of being of voting age.
I have a vote in the leadership election as a TU member. My Union leadership (unison) is exhorting me to vote for Jeremy Corbyn. I will most certainly not be doing so.
