I agree Slim.
I canvassed in December and I have to admit, on the doorsteps we found an anti Corbyn element.
However the most anger was on brexit.
We got a lot of, '' you're policy on brexit is nonsense, it makes no sense''.
Time after time we got that, in words something like that.
Sometimes fairly politely put, other times fird out in quite strong language and even abuse.
However, once even some of them got on about the policies.
They liked the policies.
So I'd like to see the policies largely remain..
The other problem was they didn't believe the policies could be achievable.
There was too much promised and way too many.
However, quantified and qualified more, Labour would be unwise to throw out the policies Corbyn brought to the forefront.
After this pandemic, a new vision will be needed, more compassionate and fairer policies.
Whatever else, Corbyn brought into being policies Labour should have had years, even decades before.
On the doorstep we didn't find anti-Semitism was an issue voters would decide voting on.
However it was felt, an almighty mess had been made by the leader and his advisors on that too.
