Corbynism: What Went Wrong? Part 5 of 5, chapters 20-23, pages 45-60. In summer 2015 things suddenly “went right” for the left in an unexpected way, with Jeremy Corbyn’s election as Labour leader. By December 2019, they had evidently “gone wrong” again. That can’t be explained just by ill-will from the media and the Labour right: those were always there. This booklet offers an attempt to analyse the setbacks, learn lessons, and sketch a way to renewed efforts. More online, or buy paper copies: https://workersliberty.org/corbynism Chapters: 20.
