Shame on you Mr Corbyn. You have now been re-elected, with a bigger majority, as leader of your party. You have had 3 or 4 days now, so why have you not got all the details – the costs, the organisational structures, the Terms and Conditions – done, dusted and at your finger tips?
Shame on you Mr Corbyn. You won the election, and beat the coup, and have boosted the membership of the party to be the largest in Europe – sorry, swear word – and yet you still insist on sticking to your fundamental beliefs in unilateral nuclear disarmament, investment in the country to build our way out of stagnation, not stigmatizing immigrants.
Shame on you Mr Corbyn. Instead of falling into line with the media – ‘We like to do our interviews live’ – by doing an interview recorded last night so that you could have some control over how your statements are presented, rather than allowing media outlets to cut and paste as they see fit to squeeze an explanation into a sound bite that suits THEIR narrative. Don’t worry, they will do their best to get the extremist Corbyn train back on track soon.
Shame on you Mr Corbyn. As you did the first time round, you have said you want to move forward, put the arguments and splits behind us, create a new consensus in the party to do what needs to be done to beat the Tories in the next election. And yet those that looked to bring you down before you started seem unable to accept this underhand approach. After all, why should they? Because they are right, or certainly right of centre. And that has been such a successful position in the last two elections.
Shame on you Mr Corbyn. For enthusing a new wave of party members. For actually having the cheek to propose a real alternative to ‘screw the defenseless’ policies. And to attempt to approach political debate in a – heaven forbid – civilised way, rather than fitting into the media template that manages the current discourse.
Shame, shame, shame.
