Have you read the Forde Report? Because that's kind of the issue at stake here. Yes Corbyn was smeared by the press and people on the right wing, that shouldn't be surprising anyone. But a healthy Labour party would be able to draw together, come up with a coherent media strategy, and make an argument to the British people. Instead, we ended up with a party obsessed with purity that got embroiled in month after month of petty infighting. Absolutely nobody from that era should be holding their heads high right now.
