It's rather sad. So much promise pissed away. The wave that lifted Corbyn out of obscurity and into a position he never wanted and wasn't qualified for. But hasn't that really, always, been Labour's role in UK politics? It was about not going 'too far' and setting peoples' sights too high. Not really mobilising the working class, when it existed, but forcing them to accept 'realistic boundaries' and getting the best deal 'possible' and slowly, very slowly? Labour was never about mobilising or galvanising the working class, too much, but doing the opposite.
