Oh, how I laughed. Jeremy Corbyn quoted The Masque of Anarchy, so the Keir Starmers, David Baddiels, Oliver Kamms and Hadley Freemans of the world assumed that he had written it, causing them to decry it as rubbish. They should be made to pronounce "Bysshe". Corbyn's and Len McCluskey's anthology is going to sell healthily, and the snotty reviews by people who had not read it are not even going to help that. They are going to have no effect whatever.
Tories can be educated beyond their intelligence, and the Left can often be not only intelligent, but also informed and cultured, well beyond their formal academic records. But Labour Righties, well, as the young people say, you do you. We would not want you any other way.

ReplyDeleteWorse, it would seem. Someone thought that it read as if it had been, but it was in fact by Corbyn, so ha ha Corbyn. The Labour Right, as they say these days, is what it is.
