Re: The election of Boris Johnson and the failure of Corbynism Archived Message Posted by Jamie on December 19, 2019, 8:42 am, in reply to "The election of Boris Johnson and the failure of Corbynism" It's an opinion piece and a bitter, poor one at that. "What is exposed in Labour’s debacle is a type of politics that seeks to deny the revolutionary nature of the working class." It appears that for a large section of the working class, the revolutionary nature is to either self harm, to cut your nose off to spite your face or maybe even to find an acceptable way of venting less savoury ideas. "What those now crying over Corbyn’s defeat are discovering is that their own delusions and wishful thinking were not shared by the broad mass of the population, who had Corbyn’s number." Over 10,000,000 people voted for Corbyn from a turnout of 67% after the most vicious campaign ever. Such statements are just nonsense. "This is the perspective of the International Committee of the Fourth International." Like it or not, right or wrong, most people I know, from whatever class, would just piss themselves as such stuff.
