(To Tubbs) Thanks. What was interesting was how most of them even accepted the journo's framing - something about 'be compared to Donald Trump', which he'd completely made up - without any problem. I get that things are frantic - both about Brexit, natch, and on Twitter generally - but it does tend to underline the 'everyone's out to get Corbyn' narrative that some of us have been going on about. (Usual caveat: I don't agree with him on everything.)
In my more calm-ish moments, I like to think it's that lots of people are seeing him as the one hope to change things, and hence subject him to more scrutiny; though, most of the time, I think it's cos most people can't even envisage/don't actually want, much change at all. Still, that's all for another thread...
