Re: Did none of Corbyn's "advisers" ever read anything like this? Archived Message Posted by Dovetail Joint on April 12, 2023, 6:57 am, in reply to "Did none of Corbyn's "advisers" ever read anything like this?" The short answer has to be... No, they don't appear to have, judging from their actions and behavior. They're still hasn't really been any investigation or discussion, or analysis, into why they were so incompetent and lacked the will to defend themselves. The left has learned absolutely nothing from the Corbyn debacle, and Corbyn himself has learned nothing too. Probably this is about 'ideology', very loosely termed, we are, after all, referring to social democrats here. Ideologically they, like Corbyn himself, saw themselves as being part of a 'tribe' a broad movement that included the overwhelming majority of the MPs and compromise and avoiding splits is part of the Labour left's dna. The art of the possible etc. They were totally unprepared for power when, surprisingly and against all the odds, they were lifted up by the popular, activist, wave, way above their pay grade, as was Corbyn himself.
