FOR the Labour left, I would argue that what is happening to socialists and socialism, in general, is one of the major consequences of Corbyn’s leadership not taking the threat the centrists offered seriously enough.
If anything Corbyn was too nice. Corbyn offered the hand of unity to all the Labour movement to build a party that would address the issues that so desperately required attention, such as saving the NHS from the clutches of the capitalists, more social housing, workers’ rights and green issues — to name but a few.
However, while accepting the offer with one hand, the centrists, metaphorically speaking, concealed a dagger for Corbyn’s back in the other.
Labour had one of the nicest and strongest political leaders ever. I can’t recall any other leader that has had to endure the sustained and vile attacks not only from the media but from commentators and former MPs that he once called comrades, all to bring him down.
