        oh yeah for sure, he totally should have insta-purged all centrists from the party on day one though in hindsight. the media would have gone wild but it would have faded and then he wouldn't have been constantly undermined from within his own party and might have stood more of a chance.

      the british media establishment, the tories and all their mates (see house of lords) and half his own party fought against him

      it's astounding he did as well as he did

        There's reasonable evidence to suggest that GCHQ and British Military Intelligence were involved in the campaigns against him.

        Not to say that he didn't make his own share of mistakes obviously, but yeah, every ghoul in the country was definitely laser focussed on wrecking him in a way that is sometimes difficult to put into words.

        he did as well as he did electoraly as far as votes and youth support goes due to a great working class friendly agenda. In his nonexistent compromising handling of inner party neoliberal reaction he didnt do "well"
