The election of Jeremy Corbyn as leader of the Labour Party has been a shock to many people especially to some political analysts and commentators. Their view about Corbyn is he is not a serious politician, serious enough to be Prime Minister of the UK. After his emphatic victory his life, nature, character and policy are being analysed and scrutinised in every possible way and the process is likely to continue for quite a while.
Considering the direction of debate there is no certainty that the right conclusion for the overall benefit for Britain can be achieved.
Jeremy Corbyn is a simple politician for a better and more equal society and for a better world. When his candidature for leadership was confirmed over quarter million people joined the Labour Party either as supporter member or affiliated member with the sole intention of voting for him. It is an obvious indication that they were longing for such a change.
Attempts are being made in a very subtle way to brandish greed and selfishness as economic success and positive social change while food banks are increasing in number and more and more people have been seeking help of them to sustain their daily life. Could Corbyn be able to reverse this situation against the prevailing political trend? Only time can tell.
