He outlines the findings of LSE research that show how the Leader of the Opposition is being delegitimised by the British press through distortion, ridicule, and association with terrorism.
Corbyn gives biggest vote increase since 1945:
“Socialist achieves bigger swing than Tony Blair.
In 2017 the Centrists were working to lose the general election and in effect cause a Tory Landslide and Hard Brexit.
This demonstrates their priority was not stopping Brexit as they said it was in 2019, instead they *used Brexit* to lose the election and to remove Corbyn.
