I the UK Labour Party heading for obscurity just like the time when Foot was elected leader all those years ago? The 'Corbymania' currently sweeping the UK Labour Party, and its apparent lurch to the 'Left;, maybe a knee jerk reaction from the days of Blair, Brown, Mandelson and 'New Labour' Third Way bullshit.
Corbyn by all accounts is an honest politician, however many folks in the Labour movement are doubtful about a shift to the Left, and possible 'loony' policies being adopted. History often has a nasty habit of repeating itself and Labour could consign itself to the opposition benches like they did in the late 1970s, when Thatcher and the Torys took over.
But we have to wait and see as the leadership contest vote is around the 20th of September 2015.
