To be a success, at almost anything, one needs a degree of... arrogance. An old chum of mine was once recording a single. Next door someone else was recording one too. During a break the 'funny bloke' came in a raved about how fantastic his new song was and how well the recording was going. My mate listened and thought it was... crap, didn't see what the fuss was about. A few weeks later he saw David Bowie on Top of the Pops tearing it up with playing Jean Geanie and changing music, a brilliant performance. Arrogance, self-belief, confidence, Margaret Thatcher had it all. When was the last time anyone on the left had those qualities. Corbyn pales compared to her. So that even when people didn't agree with what she was saying they liked the way she said it. Corbyn is the left and social democracy's last stand. After him, they'll be something else.
